Blur 2009!!!

Can only hope it is the full full set - I'd love to see To the End and This is a Low especially that were missing from the original broadcast 

[Pipine]

Really looking forward to seeing the blur set and REM, definitely two of my favourites pyramid sets over the years.  And whatever other gems they dig up from the vaults,  I’d cancelled my TV license but this has made me restart my direct debit.

I confess I haven't read the last couple of pages, but I hope we get full sets for Blur and the Stones!

Cheers, I appreciate that. I'll watch it later!

Will @halvin be doing a ClashFinder? Fingers crossed!!

Is there no plans for an unofficial low key online festival?

Would be good to have some dj sets/acoustic sets from festival favorites

The BBC advert is now live - love what they have done with all the photos to make a planning shot. https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p08g1ppj

Yep definitely. I feel equal parts excited and overwhelmingly sad for the coverage. It's going to be an emotional weekend. Just hits home how special that place is to me and all of us here.

As someone who’s not from UK and always misses out cause of geoblocks... all of the newer vids seem to be available to me, but not the older ones. I wonder if i’ll be able to see some of the content during the glasto weekend... 

(I meant legally.. otherwise a VPN will be my saviour anyway)

That’s exactly how we feel. Obviously going to be tremendous watching the bbc coverage but watching the scenes of the crowds, the happy faces of everyone dancing, the images of those quieter moments where despite the huge attendance you can always find a space to chill out, these all will give us mixed emotions.  There will be a bond between us all on here despite not being on the farm.

I’ve even started checking the long range weather forecast for our back garden for the weekends camping out!  Then the countdown will start for 2021,  hope all those without tickets so far will have a successful resale!

I got an email from bbc saying they might use one of my 1986 photos for this but sadly not - here they are anyway

The top one is The Housemartins ( with Norman Cook) and the banner at the side says “murdoch is bad news” !

[mufcok]

Some of the highlights packages available on there now are a good watch. Mixed emotions though, think that's gonna be a running theme throughout this month

Absolutely nothing. Mrs c had a similar wee moment watching vampire weekend, it's about remembering the occasion, how you felt at the time, how happy you were,  rather that just the band. Especially when the crowd are pictured. You remember the flags, where you stood , who was next to you.

Although it's obviously not the same as actually being there, I am really looking forward to Glastonbury this year. I love how people are going to be making a real event of it. I will too. It's definitely going to be a fun five days at home!
