It will be a normal crowd - definitely not busier than Dua Lipa for instance, let alone an actually packed act

It'll be rammed I reckon.

Are we just crossing wires in the thread? I don't remember any news about OR doing BST, though seem to recall something about NK.

 

As for Fender, he's headliner or nothing now at this juncture. Maybe that changes if the new record doesn't make moves, but unless he shoots himself in the foot - not entirely unfeasible - he's a bill-topper in my book.

Yes he is, simply that Glastonbury have chosen Olivia and Fred this time round, the latter I imagine to still grab him on this phase like Coachella most likely. I don't think his star will continue and continue myself.

even if she is doing BST, what difference does that make to glasto? it isn't an either/ or thing. She loves glasto and has made that very clear. She has moved her manchester dates to late June and it would be mad if it wasn't for glasto 


I’m not suggesting she is or isn’t playing either. I’m pointing out some potential speculation from somebody who might have info.

I think it'll be Billie Eillish busy. Without seeing what's on other stages, i don't see it being rammed.

Excuse my ignorance, but what is 'The Post'? 

 

If real, a fascinating insight in to the minds of the group of people who book the main 2 stages that consistently make a camel out of a horse, transcribed by someone with the literary skills of an 8 year old who doesn't know spell/ grammar check.

 

If fake, it makes 50% of what's been discussed on here redundant. 

 

"Sam Fender not on the booking teams radar" is particularly moronic.

Not a comment on the legitimacy of the post -  But shitting on things because of spellings is it self an act of naivety itself sorry 

 

were it an official document submission for a law firm in a major case I think you would have every right to criticise - but at the end of the day its a social media post

 

Speaking as someone with a learning difficulty who struggles immensely with some spelling and grammar issues (I mistyped grammar three times in doing this - Spellchecker was smart enough to highlight the mistake but not good enough to tell me how to type it - I had to ask a human!!!!). 2.6% of adults have something similar.

 

I wish people would stop being stupid (ironically used) enough to think everyone should spell everything correctly on social media and use this to judge legitimacy.  

 

Its common sense with the 2.6% of learning dificulty people in addition to English perhaps not being some peoples first language - posts are gonna have errors......  does not mean that person is Stupid

 

Glastonbury Festival is not put together by some Eaton College Grammar Nazi's it was started by a farmer.  Did you know the guy who curates West Holts started working as a festival as a car park attendent - (though i have no actual clue how good at spelling they are)

 

If you do not think thee is spelling mistakes on official Glastonbury documents - I think perhaps thats maybe a bit Naive. 

 

Sorry to reply like this but posts like this really trigger me

What I find fascinating about 'The Post' is that even though it's easily one of the most noted and discussed posts on here in recent years, it's received only 1 'reaction' in the month since it was published.

She got a large crowd on the Other stage and she's only grown in status since then. She'd have no problem packing the field.

It will be busy enough but as i said no busier than Dua Lipa.

Why would it be any busier than Dua Lipa, a UK artist with way more hits / more well known here as she's been around longer / generally bigger.

 

Does depend on clashes I guess, Dua Lipa had a pretty easy ride given IDLES were the other headliner

    • Another note, if I didn't mention the food in the arena for main stage is right at the back. Bands wise they do very well for but as a festival so far they pros are outweighed quite heavily currently for me.
    • On another note for RIP as an event, there is some good things but there are so many things people going to UK festivals would hate and how far behind they are.  Consistent network and water, beer and pretzel like food is brought around to buy in the crowds. Topping up on the wristband is good. The camping and food arrangement is not good, you really need cooking kit. Water points inside the arena are bonkers, water points in camping are a faff unless you are close enough in general camp. Merch stands are crazy. You MASSIVELY need to think about your lidl shop for camping and try and do it so you've one stop. It's definitely worth it getting to a camping shop here, picking up a rolley between your mates and stacking it for the walk back....lidl is cheap though, not hard getting in but Thursday queues getting in and into the camping is mad. You have to register first for a wristband as well leaving any bigger bags behind so pull to a side if only two and do it separately. I was joining a WhatsApp group for solo camp so went with the flow but I've learnt. Had it been me or just two my tent would have been down much quicker.  Big final note, I got a fresh and black 3 man from decathlon before coming and put in bigger suitcase with my airbed and sleeping bag...do this. Take a smaller option for your clothes. If you go to Munich first, book your train to Nuremberg as far in advance as you can....very important!....it hikes crazy. Probably bettee overall for baggage sizes to do BA both ways but you do then need to go back to Munich after too. Use the B&B hotel hbf the night before....its very nice, comfortable, cheap and within 10 minutes of the station which also serves as a transport stop 15 minutes from the registration.  Get up literally like 5am with everything back the night before, shower and go. Transport is free anyway for festival ticket holders during the duration.  Would I just choose to travel in each day and back to a hotel?, on the basis of sleep and getting accommodation cheap enough for 3 nights i might just do especially if I picked the ticket up early enough. It doesn't feel like a festival in a normal sense....unless you are in general yoi have to exit on the paths outside the camping to walk down and in which also applies for getting water so have a stock up. Toilets are in the camping.
    • Yup and they aren't cheap   Glastonbury is different though, it's a place that will pack out for rarities they don't usually see. Download strictly speaking shouldn't be the strangest place for Avril to pop up of she had been a touring artist of longer times over the years.   Avril and GC would get the same billing for me and GC are selling arenas out quicker than Avril sold Ally Pally. Bearing in mind she'd pnly done soem Brixton dates before.
    • Avril gets above GC on rarity (see Cypress Hill this year). She drew in something like 70,000 at Glastonbury, so much so that they had to close the field off. I’d wager that she would get the biggest crowd of the entire weekend if she was to play DL.
