Glastonbury Forecast

This time next week I will hopefully be very drunk on strawberry brothers, maybe even trying to convince someone that their inflatable bed would be a much better place to sleep than the grass in front of the other stage.


So on with the Forecast.

The Weather

The scorcher of a June we were promised never turned up, and even though the long range weather does suggest the weather improving for next week. It shouldn't be as hot as last year. Long range weather is notoriously flakey so in no way is this a guarantee. They do suggest though more cloud with wind, meaning cold nights but hopefully cool mornings. (So we may get some sleep this year, should we choose to.)

The Park Special Guest




Jarvis Cocker, has all but confirmed one of the special guest to be Pulp.

Good money is on Arctic Monkeys filling the over slot as they now have previous with their surprise appearance at the Radio One Big Weekend, and they have suspicious gaps in their tour on both Friday and Saturday.

Both Foo Fighters and Arcade Fire have Saturday night Gaps in their European tours but as they aren't in country it might be asking to much. ( I really hope not.)

  4. Erm not to sure what you mean. "Aren't their sched packed?"??? If you mean their schedule is packed. I don't think it is they got nothing til July.

    Radiohead have been rumoured for the past 4 glastos. Nothing (so far) this year makes me believe it more than previous years.

  5. More rumours circulating about Arctics, that not only are they playing but it will be the Friday slot.

    Also Emily has apparently gone further in her "Could be headlinging" comment to state that the act she was talking about will be playing the Friday slot.

    These two rumours would seem to support each other, but they are still rumours as yet.

  6. Graham Coxon is playing on the Park at 3.30pm on Saturday.

    So he won't be the special guest.
