BBC Coverage 2023

[DTichborne]

Not showing The Hives is a big miss. Hope it's at least being recorded to post up later. 

[ghostdancer1]

Last time they played they weren't shown either as were on a little too early for the coverage.

[DTichborne]

Daft isn't it? In terms of festival bands that'll look good on the TV, there are few better.

Hives opening other in 2013 is one of my favourite glasto sets ever

They were fantastic that year, should have been higher up the bill but he seemed to enjoy being on so early, shame neither set got broadcast but i guess its a special treat for those lucky enough to have tickets

[jannybruck]

Yeah they really dropped the ball with the scheduling of them. There's a real resurgance in buzz about the band over the past few months with the Arctic Monkeys support and it's a real shame they just missed the cutoff for the coverage. Could have easily been swapped with Lightning Seeds.

Yeah they were excellent supporting Arctic Monkeys the other week and I was looking forward to seeing this.

Nevermind. Guess I'll just go do something else.

OK, buckle up unlucky losers in the Glasto ticket lottery!

Let's keep a nice community of bbc watchers like last year. Who are we watching? Are they good/average/dreadful? What time are you starting drinking? Etc.

I've got my snacks (Doritos, sausage rolls, mini-pasties) & booze (vocation roll with it pale ale, gin, rum & espresso martini for when I start flagging) all ready.

First live stream is Maisie Peters in 5 minutes - I suspect I'll hate it, but I'll try anything once!

[northernringo]

When do the live streams start on the other stages?

I think I'll do some stage hopping today (except for CRJ who I can't wait for). Heading to see Sam Fender tonight so won't catch the headliners

[rumandraisin]

I thought there was gonna be a stream of each stage, it's just the pyramid stage though?

Between 2pm & 2:30pm, depending on which stage.

[northernringo]

Well... Maisie Peters definitely wouldn't be for me...

Same, just can't turn it off 😄

[One Tonne Baby]

The site looks glorious 

[Sku]

Not many people in the field watching Maisie Peters, but I guess they are all watching The Hives. Which we can't. Brilliant.

[verrymerry]

Christ this is boring...  Roll on 2pm 😄

never heard of her until i saw her on Sunday Brunch last weekend, shes not for me either, surely Hives on Pyramid and Maisie Peters on Other would have been a more appropriate booking

[One Tonne Baby]

Exact style of Taylor Swift, right?

Not even close...

[Punksnotdead]

Huh! TV just kicked me out of the i-player & won't let me back in! Luckily it's only Maisie Peters at the moment! Hope this is not a sign of things to come!

AHH so the Other Stage probably not far off being added.
