Mmm, the sound on the Pyramid has been so rbubish for so long now I've given up hoping they'll sort it outbeesonthewhatnow said:My mate Adam is the main FOH system tech for the Pyramid this year, so if that sounds crap at least I know who to moan at
Don't often have much on there I wanna see anyway so no great loss for me but still a shame.

Will they be showing the Dr Who?
Weather related or otherwise??
You KNOW there are advantages to warm** sunshine and blue skies (those elusive things next week ) don't you?
**Offers concesion -- ie the reality -- to aqua and others that temps will be sub-22C, probably sub 20C ...
at God ...
I had that 'not wanting to go' feeling, really really strongly, on Thursday night when all forecasts were hardening towards a near-certain mudbath (updates some other time, but prospects still look WELL dodgy). As some noticed, I got pretty depressed about it.
Now though, I've pulled myself together in a Northern type manner, I'm just resigned to wetness, and planning to concentrate even more than normal on sheltering in marquees, and alcohol!
Assume mudbath, and feel joy if we do slightly better, as is JUST possible.
It'll be a bundle of fun whateva!! And at least crustychick will be happy, the crusty dreaded weirdo ...

On the plus side more room in the boot for booze
Well I'm turning up in a Transit minibus, so your measly Mondeo is relatively small, still!

I had to go to Wimbledon today and popped into Millets to get a spare groundsheet. It was full of rugby shirted posh geezers and sloaney birds fighting over the last pair of wellies in the shop
Fucking amateurs

Imagenine them in the soaking mud soaked freezing rain with the wind tearing round and chilling to the bone and the only warmth sat huddled inside a tent while you can see your breath.nipsla said:Unfortunately this lot were definitely going. I overheard one of the Sloane's saying how excited she was about seeing KT Tunstall
That should cheer you up
