And even then a wet winter is no guarantee.  Last year we had a mild, damp winter and a long, wet and cooler spring and early summer.  All the signs were that it could be a wet one and somehow the 5 best days of the summer fell at just the right moment and the only evidence it could have gone to sh*t was the insane amount of woodchip that turned West Holts into a dirty brown pile of ankle twisting mini logs.

They were similarly good at Bestival 2011 to be honest. Similar setlist. same opening song. 32 songs against 27 at G.   The live CD is great  

It can't be restated enough how good that gig was. It's probably the reason why I've been jonesing so hard for Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds to get that slot...

They're gonna have to come up with something impressive for the other two to top this     Same.  Which is why my festival would be an utter disaster. I mean, there be a load of other reasons too but I couldn't deal with all those delicate egos 

I would be deeply surprised if they don't turn up.
