The Weather Thread 2024

Recommended Posts

I haven't posted much on here but have been lurking daily to see the updates posted by various users. 

 

I just wanted to say a huge thank you to all contributors of this thread. It seems like it's been an extremely smooth year I terms of weather outlook so far and yet it had me at the edge of my seat the whole time. I can't imagine what it must be like on a dicey build up (I've only been twice in 2022/3).

 

Best of luck to you all and have a bloody good time!

Watching BBC news this morning weather forecast said chance of a shower on Sunday otherwise dry.  That's a result!

Nice to get decent phone signal for a change in the campee field.  Managing to stream live tv when previous times delays in what's apps going!

 

Factor 50 at the ready!

Seems to be another Network onboard this year, where there were two temporary towers on the edge of our camper field last year, there’s now three!!! 
 

Looks like it might even be a Three (the network) tower, as I suddenly have 5 bars 5g on my Three sim this year!!! Not dumping the vodafone PAYG sim just yet though! 😂🙈

We can’t get there until Friday morning (grandparents childcare is 3 nights max 😬) but if anyone on-site still seeing this can you let us know how ground is? Nothing fancy needed - just whether it’s trainers weather or walking boots weathers! 

Ground is bone dry. 100% trainer weather currently.

If it helps, I watched a bloke break his mallet this morning on the Big Ground. I’d say the ground is ‘firm’…

I’ve said it before, I’ll say it again. There isn’t enough shade at Glasto.  Lots of sunburnt people already.  It’s a hot one alright…

they apparently could care less or they would have shade areas. Seemingly raising ticket costs doesnt provide them with an inkling to think about global warming.

    • Not necessarily but it should be, Download have a habit of messing it uo when others get the bookings on point. Good Charlotte I doubt are playing 3rd down and that too 3 that day while dreamy is too strong. I think you'd have one another day to help sell weekend tickets. I also doubt Papa Roach play. 
    • Here's a bit of a wild stab, few placings may be off, and for all I know half of these won't actually be touring next year, but screw it, it's a bit of fun   Pyramid: Sabrina Carpenter, Phoebe Bridgers, TBA (Florence + The Machine), Garbage, The Last Dinner Party, Interpol, Alex James Britpop Classical Other: Chase & Status, Teddy Swims, Clairo, The Kooks, Zara Larsson, Kingfishr, Sports Team, Orbital West Holts: Robyn, Baby Keem, De La Soul, Deltron 3030, JID, Dua Saleh, kwn, Daniela Latila Woodsies: Bonobo, Darkside, TBA (Tame Impala), Laufey, Warmduscher, Wednesday, The Lottery Winners, The Royston Club, Florence Road Park: Patti Smith, Super Furry Animals, Slayyyter, The Cardigans, Skye Newman, Kelly Lee Owens, Teen Jesus & The Jean Teasers   Pyramid: Harry Styles, The xx, Richard Ashcroft, The Pogues, Jessie J, Sigrid, Travis Other: Rosalia, Sombr, Mitski, Alex Warren, Holly Humberstone, Cat Burns, Pale Waves, Yard Act West Holts: Basement Jaxx, Elyanna, Clipse, L’Imperatrice, Nation of Language, Jim Legxacy, Yazmin Lacey, RIP Magic Woodsies: Suede, Chvrches, Bleachers, MUNA, The Cribs, Keo, Bleech 9:3, The Lilacs Park: MARINA, Magdalena Bay, Jacob Alon, TBA (Lily Allen performs West End Girl), Getdown Services, Isaac Wood, Snail Mail, Madra Salach Pyramid: Sam Fender, Hozier, David Byrne, Cher, Obongjayar, David Gray, Billy Ocean Other: Doja Cat, Deftones, Addison Rae, Ren, Viagra Boys, Maisie Peters, The Reytons, Hard Life West Holts: Kano, Thievery Corporation, Angine De Poitrine, Thee Sacred Souls, Brooke Combe, Sasha Keable, Master Peace Woodsies: The Wombats, Metronomy, Geese*, Dry Cleaning, EsDeeKid, Sienna Spiro, Cowboy Hunters, Radio Free Alice Park: Big Thief, Laura Marling, MJ Lenderman, Richard Dawson, Oklou, Maruja, Dead Dads Club, Ratboys   *There's always one band booked for Woodsies that ends up being massively under-billed and gets shut down really early. They'd be better off playing somewhere like Other sub, but I could see the G getting them to play a smaller stage while it's still possible
    • Another Kraftwerk one for me today, as just back from seeing them.    
    • Completed my 2026 survey. Put down Super Furry Animals as my most wanted for next year but suspect the moment has gone for that. Popped a big shopping list in the box for who else you would like to see. 🙂
