Anyway I'm not looking forward to The Strokes tonight, the main stages seemed stupidly busy last night

It's gonna be even worse tonight since they gave last Friday's day ticket holders extra access to today. Good luck out there.

Has anyone tried that nft thing at the Binance stand ? Succesfully opened the vault and won a BNB (around 300€) on W1. They said i'll get it last tuesday, then thursday but received nothing yet. If any of you get it too, can you tell me if you had similar issue ? (hope it's not a scam now that I've spend way too much there 😂)

PinkPantheress is out

Arrived back on Weds and just got my first positive test. Shit.

Our shuttle bus rear ended a taxi on the first corner, which kind of felt like a metaphor for the festival organisation in general...

We only took the bus this time as it stopped closer to where we are this week. Will be taking the metro the last couple of nights. The buses stop at so many traffic lights too it seemed to take forever

We only did it because we stupidly decided to leave the tram queue for the metro and then saw the horrendous queue for that. And then got distracted buying crisps. And then saw a bus and thought "how bad could it be?" Well...

Bus has always been rubbish. We got taxis from just down the road for about €8 euros most nights 

Whereabouts was this. We couldn't find any available taxis anywhere. 

[Gregorick]

So glad I got a place within walking distance this year. Queues for every type of public transport seem insane. You all have my best of luck for the last two nights

[adforperu]

I've managed to get trams, taxis, and the bus with no problem each time! The gods are truly shining on me 🙂

Prospa crushed it last night. I do like the areas by the sea (Bits?). That Dice stage has a lovely sea breeze coming off the med...

Dua Lipa cemented her place as next year's Glastonbury headliner imo. Not my thing exactly, but it was a super slick show. 

Let's see what tonight brings, it was busy around the main stages for Gorillaz and Dua last night. Might need to get there early and drinks double parked for the Strokes, it's gonna be rammed...

[Supernintendo Chalmers]

We walked back to Llacuna this morning. Despite my legs feeling like they're gonna fall off, I'd rather walk for 40 minutes than queue and wait for an hour

[BenG92]

Our tram trick was to walk literally one stop away and it was so much better. Obviously doesn't work for every line but did for us.

Walked down Avinguda Diagonal and just stuck my arm out.

You must have been really lucky. None of the ones I saw had the green light on. 😔

Had my best day of the whole festival yesterday.

Caught 16 shows, including 7 in full.

As always, avoiding the Main Stages will make for a more fluid day.

Top shows: Slowdive and Bicep.

Awesome string of extreme music with Duma, High on Fire and Gabber Modus Operandi caught in succession in Parking Lot / Adidas.

Mdou Moctar at 2am really went hard, harder than on their records. They managed to make the Boiler Room noise disappear!

Yesterday was superb. Spent almost no time in Mordor and crowds were manageable on the other stages.

We left at 3.30am, got off the bus at 5:30am 😬 

Holy F… what time Metro service closed on Friday? Probably will skip Run the Jewels to avoid transport queue 

[yosoyyoberdi]

Yesterday was great. Had a blast on the stage invasion with Jay Electronica. Absolute scenes.

Dua Lipa, Tyler, Bicep... what a first day! I was scared with all the horror stories from last weekend but it all worked great, no bar queues for me. However, I'm worried about today. Yesterday it felt like the festival was at full capacity. Not sure what it's going to happen with the extra people coming for The Strokes

El-P cancelled their show for laryngitis 3 days ago. No way they're playing tonight although I dunno why the hell PS haven't announced it yet. You don't just get over laryngitis in 3 days, unless they've roped someone in to do El's spots somehow. 

[bobhoward]

If RTJ cancels they have to move the smile to moroder right? Or move JAMC so they don’t clash with the strokes or the smile… one can dream I guess. 

[Festiv Val]

If it makes anyone feel any better Porto edition last night was similar to barcelona, totally oversold. Couldn't get near the stages, even for relatively smaller acts like DIIV. Everyone doing their business in the bushes as queues were crazy, totally different to before

Yeah was mega surprised to not see them on the cancellation list. Maybe they’re hoping to just push through it, although seems unwise. Fully thought that PinkPantheress tweet was gonna be about them when I first saw it pop up. 

[FloorFiller]

So Sky Ferreira was twenty minutes late at her Porto show yesterday and had to get her set cut half way through. Really hope that’s not something she repeats tomorrow, I’d be gutted. 

[xxialac]

Run the Jewels are going ahead tonight.
