Is Mad Cool usually this quiet in confirming whether or not they're still at thing?

Quiet(ish) is right beside the car park and the entrance (so the first field). We were pitched just inside the entrance gate, so literally a 1 minute walk from the car. It took less than 2 minutes to get from the tent to the showers/toilet block (so no further way than you might be to a toilet block in any regular campsite inside the fence, unless you are one of the crazy people that camps beside the toilet blocks!). The walk from the campsite into the action areas in the festival is where the trek is involved, but that is mainly due to a lack of anything going on close to PGD. It was about 20 minutes or so walk to Arcadia in standard festival traffic. 

for coach its gonna have to be 2023 level of bookings to be seen as that. Former headliners sprinkled in there. Rare bookings and then surprises of course. I dont know if anyone has that right now but its all subjective. I am sure if the lineup is great that a lot of people on here will be scratching their heads as to why, when the top lines will have artists they have no clue about. And that shows the difference in who is listening to what. Coachella doesnt give you 80% of the same ol stuff that everyone knows cause thats boring and lazy.  Glasto people want that 80% of known stuff so then they dont have to listen to a lot of new stuff in the lead up.    anyway. Coachella has one glasto headliner at least. And they wont be billed that high either

At least the 1861 recipe says add salt and pepper to taste.

that's not bad then really... prices seem quite reasonable... What's the Chill Village for up to 5 people? What's included in that mate?
