the bbc is always great for music, and is getting even better(check out bbc4 particularly) i always quite enjoy the glasto footage, even though if im honest im searchin for something thatll appeal, but hey its such a broad ranging festival isnt it?

and speakin of the bbc did anyone watch the steve winwood documentary last night what a legend that guy is!!

Stevie wonder might get a listen, the rest will be turned firmly off

try a lot of it Ian, ive found some cool stuff on there just by accident, it can be less torture than the football, just ha ha

Ive heard most of whats on Robert, not saying they are bad or anything, just not really my cup of tea. Apart from maybe a bit of Muse and Ray Davies who I don't mind and possibly some Seasick Steve although he can get a bit boring after a while
Stevie Wonder however is a big hero of mine :-)

Yep, big thumbs up to John 'Credence' Fogerty the guy really is a Legend, will watch out for Seasick Steve.......TEX

Couldn't agree more Rob. The BBC's coverage of the festival is excellent and is just getting better each year. Great eclectic mix of bands and always something worth watching - great stuff.

And what about Quo on the Sunday afternoon last year? They had the place bouncing!

I'm just packing for it as we speak, setting off tomorrow night at 8ish - ugh.

I heard recently that the BBC sent less than a 100 over to the World Cup but there's 300 of them going to Glasto!!

Not the best line-up ever but still loads to see, plus it just gives you more time to wander off and see all the other stuff at the festival.

Will be seeing:

Stevie Wonder
Mumford & Sons (but it clashes with Florence & the Machine so will decide on the day!)
Frank Turner
Snoop Dogg
Faithless
Muse or Pet Shop Boys (saw Muse in Chicago & loved them but never seen PSB so will mull it over!!)
Frightened Rabbit
The Courteeners
Tegan & Sara
Beardyman
The football (twice if we get through!!)
Some debates at the Leftfield stage.
Some gospel music at lunchtime on the sunday at Bourbon St. Jazz & Blues.
etc.
etc.

I will be there as usual and really looking forward to getting a tan instead of wallowing in the mud. Must see for me includes; I am Kloot, Beach House, Local Natives, King King and Willie Nelson, amongst others. Buzzin.
