    He did at Glastonbury and they are playing the same day. So its almost 100% probability.

    They didn't do it at Electric Picnic last year but they have a better slot at Longitude and they have been performing it together at Festivals so there's a chance, yes.

    Hope the ground is in good nick after the last few gigs and the rain this past few days. That's the only thing I'm slightly worried about! Looking forward to Sunday, Massive Attack in particular.

    Ground was in excellent condition before, during and after the Arctic Monkey's gig on Saturday.

    I was really impressed with the work done to the ground between Thursday and Saturday. It was clearly obvious that the ground had been slit and sliced by machinery and then sanded which meant ZERO mud in the arena.

    The same process had been followed by the bars and some additional hay had been put down to ensure no mud.

    There was only slight drizzle for a short period on Saturday so no rainfall of significance.

    Hat tip to MCD for being proactive rather than reactive.

    Agree with all of the above, my clothes and shoes were still spotless when I got home, despite dancing my ass off.

    Looks like it will be wellies and poncho weather. Getting a bit tired of muddy festivals.

    Looking at a LOT of rain over the weekend. Wellies and ponchos time most definitely guys.

    Hopefully it's made up for with a sunny EP :D

    Wouldn't anticipate needing wellies for this. The ground for Arctic Monkeys over the weekend was impeccable, despite heavy rain and big crowd at Macklemore on the Thursday. Also, the way the site is set up none of the peripheral stages would have had any footfall, and the main stage will also be in a different position to the big concerts so more fresh ground. Id say a poncho to combat any drizzle and you're grand

    Don't know really, I have a weather app on my phone and so far it has never let me down yet and it's predicting more than 3.5mm of rain on the Friday. .5 Sat and Sun which is still fairly crap but Friday will be horrible.

    I was quite drunk when I read the message, but I'm pretty sure they said at the weekend that there were only 200 weekend tickets left? That must be approaching single figures by now?

    As far as I'm aware they were selling them in Marley Park last weekend so would assume they will have them on sale at the weekend. I would try and get a decent one from a camping shop. they're not expensive but worth their weight in gold if you get caught in a downpour.

    Yeah, I looked last night even though I wasn't looking for a ticket and couldn't get one.

    Scratch that, just tried again and it worked.
