Glastocam!

[ghandi]

Certainly looks bigger than the old stage then, can't wait to see it

[JayBalls]

Definitely puts it into to perspective when the "second stage" is the same as main stages at the other big fests in the country

[kalifire]

There's definitely something up at the Park viewing field, but it doesn't quite look like the sign to me. Maybe the holdings?

[General Lee]

Lots of little bits being added to the fields. Loads of generators at the pyramid today.

Lovely a beautiful evening there right now . For that four weeks today...

I think it'll also mean that they can get bigger and better acts to headline The Other Stage, who could headline Reading and Download but not necessarily The Pyramid. It lessens the Second Stage status definitely. Very very exciting times actually. The lightshow for The Chemical Brothers will be huge.

Is that some compost loos I spy to the right? Possibly woodsies? (I need to get out more)

I wondered about those. Couldn't work out where it was though. Hospitality?

[Padgey]

Only just over 3 weeks left and I thought there would be so much more done, enjoying watching the progress though.

Won't be long until that fence is joined up.

[kalifire]

It'll soon go into the next gear and we'll see a lot happening at once I think. Wouldn't be surprised if things start accelerating this coming week. Can't wait to watch it all obsessively!

[briddj]

I'd think all the tents will go up late as they will all be hired. Longer they are up, more it costs.

[JBarbour]

is that Eavis checking out his handy work near the pyramid

[markrkp]

Looks wet and muddy behind the Pyramid.

(Not that I'm going to get to go behind there! - and it gets covered anyway)

A bit of rain to keep the dust down , as from Wednesday next week MSN weather has going up to 30c by the 8th, that should dry it out a bit , let's hope it lasts!

Lets hope that, unlike last year, the hot weather doesn't peak to early, it would be nice for a heatwave to hit around 19th June.

You can download the current panorama, which are 9160*1848, whereas the image displayed on the website is only 3966*800. The direct link is http://delivery2.panomax.com/processing/jobs/1219873/image.jpg and you can find older images by decreasing the number (trial and error), which seems to usually be around 9 to 12

There is a fence panel down in South Park. Keep an eye out if you haven't got a ticket

Who thinks that the GlastoCam should be rotated a little bit more towards the left? It seems to miss out most of the Theatre and Circus and places like West Holts and the Acoustic. I think that the obvious desire of getting the Tor and the valley hinders the practical need by making other places missing out. They could still rotate it by about 7 degrees though and not miss out the Tor.

I think it covers the same area as the old cam/cams

I might be wrong!

I agree - missing stuff on the left. Also, tilt it down a bit - too much sky!

Hear hear etc, I think it's a conspiracy to let them set up in secret

I reckon that's a model of Glastonbury - not the real one. Just like the moon landings.

I increased it with 9, but I'm not sure at what time it snowed last 24 hours in Pilton...
