I was going to make a separate thread but wasn't sure if people would complain...

There do seem to be many!

I'm getting a "Something went wrong loading this program" with the live channel playing Laura Marling...

Just keep trying, I think a fair few people are trying to tune in.

Wasn't gonna watch any of it, now I don't think the live channel will leave my screen all weekend.

Is there anywhere to watch what Emily said?

It was on the radio, so no.

The crowd is always a bit sparse for these earlier folk pyramid acts, I'm a big fan of still putting them there though. An early afternoon lie down with some lovely music is good for the soul, First Aid Kit saved my life in 2017.

That's true.  The beeb isn't really showing all the people listening up the hill.

And the field is starting to fill up a bit now, presumably for Baz.

Mary Anne Hobbes now having to feign Glastonbury enthusiasm for the next couple of hours after admitting she pretty much doesn't go.

Explains why they’ve drafted in Keaveny as co-host? He’s always around the Park!

In fact, they just did a wide shot and loads of people were chilling to her.

Had meetings most of the morning so missed the majority of Emily’s interview. Any announcements or new news?

I walked past him in the Other field once (true story!). He looked quite pissed.

She chose a song to play and picked Macca (Follow the Sun), so he seems to be nailed on. Plus there was mention of Van Morrison.

Any idea the easiest way to get the audio only? Its only for listening to, not overly bothered about the video

have a look at the thread I posted - pretty sure its in there somewhere

you can use get_iplayer to download BBC sounds stuff too - but I'll leave that to better skilled folk than me to explain

Laura Marling is really beautiful, isn't she?

[faymondo]

Chic were on the list tweeted but "greyed" out. Anybody got any ideas why ?

Ah ok, cheers. thought it had been in the TV channel.

[reflekting]

Just watched REM on the iPlayer, I was far too young to be there so that was a treat and footage I've never seen before. I'd love to see them, but there doesn't seem to be the appetite for a reunion yet.

They've said it ain't happening - and they do seem to actaully have integrity.

Certainly seemed to have an adverse effect on that bloke from Noah and the Whale when they split (a whole dreary concept album's worth).

I have to say, the "exclusive performance" area is much better up in The Park than the anonymous backstage area they used to use.  I'd still rather they went to Glade, Avalon, Green Fields, Cabaret or any of the other under filmed parts of the festival.

Who was that just on after Laura Marling? Missed the title showing her name, but what a voice!
