Anyone excited yet?

Also Excited to see the Clashfinder!!

Ah ha! So at least one person has figured out to change the '8' to a '9' in the address of last year's clashfinder page. Well done there.

😁

Excited? Blur @ Glasto? Oh yes!!!!

bring on the clashfinder 😁

:D

Haha Yeah, Cheers.

So the money question.....When do you envisage the 1st draft being uploaded? 🙂

Beano said:

When do you envisage the 1st draft being uploaded? :)

About a day after some reliable information comes out about the line-up. 🙂 As for when (or if) that happens -- your guess is as good as mine.

By this time last year the official site had posted line-ups (with gaps, without times) for the main stages, which allowed me to guess enough to put out the first revision. Hopefully something will come out soon. There's always the chance that they won't release any information in advance this year, which will be a shame.

whats this then?

looking forward to pouring over the finder of the clashes halvin. was an essential and much envied commodity last year. now we just need mr eavis to release the info. come on michael!!

Planning a workable detailed itinerary is going to be harder this year than most, what with Blur, The Specials, Madness, The Boss and so many, many more. So I can't wait for the Clashfinder timetables and work out the optimum inter-stage dashes!

Halvin you are a legend!

Looking forward to your last draft showing a gap between The Specials, Lamb and Dan Le Sac and Scroobius pip

Please!

I've heard the line up is due for release in the Guardian News Paper on Tues the 26th, Possible leak Late monday night if they are printing the paper....?? I dont think i can wait much longer :p

The Guardian are announcing the line up @ 10pm on Monday on their Twitter Page!

Yeah, I'd seen that. I'm not sure if that means that they'll be tweeting the whole line-up or just a link to a page with the line-up. Hopefully the latter! 🙂

Yeah, i dont have a twitter account so hopefully they will do that! New Glasto Site going live soon too!

Hi Halvin,

It was my first Glasto last year and the guide really helped. I think I would have missed some really great performances. Of particular note were The Beat on the Left Field stage followed by Eddy Grant on the Jazz World.

Looking forward to Glasto even more this year as the line up so far has some bands and artists I've wanted to see for a long time (Neil Young & The Boss).

Look out for Mundo Jazz. I saw them on the Blazing Saddles stage last year. They are a spoof world music band. Hilarious.

Keep up the good work, it's really a great guide. Beats the official one hands down.

thank you halvin!! 🙂

thanks for this! I think brucey will get more than an hour and a half though....

Mungo said:

He'll do two and a half hours, apparently. That was some news that I missed.

Thanks Halvin - this is partb of tradition now ... every year I..

Pour over the your list online ... checking for potential clashes

Carefully print off a copy

Stash said copy in my rucksack

Double check it is in ruckdsacke before departing

Stash the copy in my pocket on Wednesday

Lose it Wednesday night fall back to using the guardian mini-guide!!!

Maybe I will hang on to it this time .. at least until Friday!

Thanks for doing this again halvin, it's much appreciated, makes it so much easier to plan your day at the festival. (even if those plans never seem to happen!)

Thanks so much. I've been using your clashfinder for years now but this year you just made my 12yr old the happiest boy in Ireland. We were unable to print the official poster thing last night so I got him to look on efests and lo and behold it's here already! It's his first Glasto and I think he might burst with excitement before we even get on the plane! Have a good one. xx

Belated (just a bit!) thanks for your Mega Clashfinder last year.

Helped us start with a plan - until de-railed by unforseen cider-related shenanigans.

You're a star ;)

Many thnx for this 🙂 More acts announced now, G-Stage and rest of Dance Village are on official site - any idea when your going to get a v2 together?

Your an absolute star though! 🙂

If you can be arsed, you could look at a few bands myspaces sites (etc) as sometimes they announce the times that they are playing at.

Cool! (Did they copy it from the one done on exTos? - who cares, the information is out there 🙂 )

Just wanted to say thanks for taking the time to put this together...made my festival last year and I've kept my 08 clashfinder to remember who we saw...facilitated the nice making of a playlist in my itunes too! All round diamond Halvin - thanks!

Has anyone figured out how to edit the poster to fit onto say two A4 sheets, I'm rubbish with this sort of thing. Looks nice on the wall

Excellent work. Maybe you should make the Clashfinder into a wiki so you can get everyone to do the work for you 😁

Last year we printed out the clashfinder onto banner material about 2m by 3m wide and used it as a door mat out side our tent, definitely the way to go 🙂

Thanks for putting this together mate, it's a lifesaver!

THE best Glastonbury preparation tool ever. We took laminated copies with us in 2007 - v handy in all the muck and rain. Looking forward to v2, which I assume will include the new William's Green space, as well as the otehr stuff noted by others above?

for your assistance!

It's fantastic, shame I'm not going.

Does one exist for Latitude? I am going there!

Louise: Yes. 😁

Jo: I'm not going to Latitude so I'm not sure, sorry.

That sounds brilliant! If you've got a photo, mail it to me at photos@halvin.co.uk. I'd love to see it. 🙂

cheers for rev b, keep them coming. I am going through random bands' myspaces to listen to new stuff at the moment and keeping a note of the times they reckon they are playing Glastonbury. If you like I can post the information here for you?

The clashfinder is great! It's brilliant to imagine all the different routes you could take through the day.

I use the clashfinder religiously. Being an office type, I get it shrunk down and laminated so no amount of the weekend's excesses affects my ability to read it. Everyone thinks that I am both brilliant and dull - and I have you to thank for that halvin!

Keep up the great work 😁

Hi halvin, great work mate.

Will the G-stage lineup be added to the clashfinder at some point?

Excellent - changing that 08 to an 09 worked a treat!

Still have last years clashfinder (laminated) and marked off with where I was to jog my memory at a later date.

Will be doing exactly the same this year - many many many thanks. 🙂

Tickets arrived today, revision B of clash finder, excited? moi?

Gooood work bro - bring it on!!!

Added to the Glastonbury thread on mindlessbanter.net http://www.mindlessbanter.net/forums/index.php?showtopic=12304 Hope you don't mind.

good work with the guide so far! more stages please 🙂

this one deals with latitude, but it's not perfect yet... loads of gaps/guessed times etc...

Don't think we've got any pictures from last year, but I'll print an extra copy out for you if you like, my way of saying thanks for compiling this 🙂

halvin said:

Very much so. Great ClashFinder, very handy.

Was just wondering if you can make the data you are using available so I can tinker with it to produce a .csv file to import into google calendar (I would make the calendar publicly available). It can then be imported into iCal for use on my iPhone 🙂

Keep up the good work,

Pete (http://twitter.com/webSurgeon )

edit: Come to think of it Pete, send me your email address and I'll let you know where the files are. If I post them publicly I've got a feeling I'll be flooded with people telling me that they've found the set times ;)

It occurred to me last year that it would be nice to be able to remix the clashfinder to show the stages that you're most interested in. I promptly forgot all about this for 11 months, but there's probably enough time for me to hack something half-baked together in time for the festival.

Do you have the schedules available in some easily digestible format? Something fancy like iCalendar would probably be best, but a simple text file with a list of times and acts would do the job just fine.

Just got a "Mail delivery failed" response after sending e-mail to photos@halvin.co.uk

Maybe you are just spam filtering on unknown addresses and did receive the e-mail? Let me know if you need me to send again (to a different address?).

Oh dear, it looks like my email went tits-up at 9 this morning. Email to hal at halvin dot co dot uk ought to still work (although it'll still generate an error message, I think).

Alternatively you could post your email address here and I'll delete it once I've seen it.

Thanks - Yes tried all of that but still getting B.... strange

Jack Penate / Jamie T on at the same time as the Specials.... grrrr.

Am a complete Glastonbury newbie and just found your site - it's sooooooo good!!!! What a lifesaver! I've been trawling through myspace trying to find out who was on while I'm stewarding (and laughing at the number apparently appearing at 8pm on the same stage!!) but your table is so much better.

It does confirm that most of the acts I want to see are while I'm stewarding, but ach well - such is life 😜

Thanks for all your hard work. 😁

Thank you...i used this when i went in 2007, was thinking for searching for u and i found u !!!! cant thank u enough!!!! thanks xx 😁

Thought you might also be interested in this. Glasto 2009 overlay for Google earth with all the site details. Very cool. Will help with the planning when combined with Halvin's excellent clashfinder.

Thanks

Whoops. Forgot the important bit.

http://www.glastoearth.com/

great work fella.....

just dropped a quid in your box...

cheers

me too halvin! great stuff and definitely worth a quid or too. in fact, eavis should pay you to make a better official schedule.

Loving your work Mr Halvin. May I be so bold as to suggest, as a mum of three, Mrs Halvin may prefer a massage and some time without baby Halvin instead of flowers? ;-)

Cheers, so useful...even at �2 I feel like a cheapskate!

petaldaze said:

Suggestion noted 🙂

What she really wants is a new pair of shoes and, fingers crossed, we're on-target to get some. Well done everybody who's donated so far.

In case anyone's wondering, I've actually put some money in the pot myself. Like I said at the top, I like putting together the clashfinder and I get use out of it, so why wouldn't I pay like everyone else? 😁

Have a quid from me, I took an A0 printout last year, howver it did burn just a bit too well!!

Tickets arrived...saw Oasis at Heaton Park on Saturday...all adding to me being VERY excited about Glasto now!

Popped by to check on updates and saw you tin rattling so dropped in a few quid - also passed on to my mates who loved me last year for finding your handy work so hopefully they might add a penny or two! Thanks again - total diamond!

halvin - great work but whats your reasoning for the pyramid timings on friday? between the end of regina and the start of fleet foxes there's 3 hours and just one act! have you had knowledge that there'll be such a big gap in the schedule there or is that just a guess?

abs said:

It's an estimated time. I heard that Lily Allen's on at 19:00 which means that there's an act missing, the Pyramid starts late, or some or all of the early acts are playing long slots. I figured I'd take a punt on the special guests having a long slot.

great stuff halvin. Ive been using clash finder for many a year and i shall donate a bit of cash for your toil.

1 point Dance stage East on Saturday seems to be different in the offical line up compared to yours. the offical has got Eric Prydz second last but you have got him quite a bit further down and Deadmau5 on 2nd last. Any ideas which is correct?

The official site was correct. They'd moved things around since I did those stages. It's updated now. 🙂

Halvin - I have inside info on the Dance Village times and want to send to you, but your email doesn't work

Great piece of work - really appreciate and I've bunged a couple of quid in the pot. Mind you, having changed a few nappies, I think I'd rather do anything else 🙂

Roy

Seeing clashfinder is just adding to my atticipation. Bunged some cash for the flowers, sterling work Halvin, keep it up. This site is getting to be a part of me ramping up to Glasto. Roll on a week on Wednesday 8am. I feel like my five year old waiting for Christmas. It'll be my five year olds third Glasto, don't know who's more excited.

I do know whose more excited.

Can I make a donation without a pay pal account?

Any chance Stonebridge Bar will be added to the clash finder?

Pete

Hey Halvin, did you manage to receive my email at all?

Can I just add to all the eulogies about your heroic efforts Halvin? You are one of the true legends of Glastonbury, up there with Tort, Arabella, HGM, Infoman, Prue and (dare I say?) ME himself. Thank you from the heart for doing all this for us. Please come along to one of the board meets so I can give you a hug.

still alive my son , see you at the g stage.

I'm so stressed - work is busy and glastonbury is ALMOST HERE!!! However, I've a large group of friends and family camping with me, so I'm as excited as I've ever been. When they ask how we know what we will do where and when, I point them to the clashfinder - which is why I made my donation before I downloaded.

You've sorted my glastonbury experiences for 3 years so far and I can't thank you enough.

Halvin, have you got any idea who the secret/special guests are on the main stage and mainly the park stage?

Also there's a stage called the greenpeace stage which laura Marling and Mumford & Sons are supposed to be playing on. have you any idea if this is true, if so, what day and time.

I'll be making a donation shortly for your cause.

Thanks

PJ said:

I heard a rumour that the special guests at the Park on Saturday will be the Klaxons. That's all I know. 🙂

I don't have any info on the Greenpeace Stage.

Donated - Cheers for doing this, Invaluable!!

Hope the Mrs enjoys the flowers and there's enough left over for a few pints!

Hi Halvin - I want to send you another timetable I have but not sure if you received my email at all? If you can confirm, that would be great.

amazing. look at all those red boxes.

there is an hour gap at peak time on Saturday night from 10.45 till 11.45pm at the Glade . a big act maybe - any ideas halvin or anyone else????? and please no wild rumours to falsely get my juices flowing.

also silent disco seems to be far fewer acts on than what is on the official lineup.

Rolf on Sat is 12.15 accoridng to his website

Halvin the Lamb , Dan le Sac and Specials are clashing again have a word!

Hey Halvin

Never ventured in to the world of the Clashfinder before...but thank you very very much. Even though there is very little I want to see as usual, even I have managed to find a clash or 2!!!

�1 in the tin for you sir...

and when are the Meets being added?!! Hahaha! 😁

g dog said:

There is now a 'tbc' in that gap on the fieldofavalon.co.uk website, so someone's definitely playing. It was just a gap before.

Hey Halvin have just come across your clashfinder.... Its amazin.. Just wanted to say Thanks. Listen up dude I'm so far over my overdraft limit that I donate a pound or two it will cost me �25 in bank charges, but rest assured as soon as payday comes round i'll make a donation.

Do you make it available in an excel format so I can geek it up and highlite some tings and make it neck hanging size?!

The reason I made it a voluntary donation rather than trying to charge is that I realise that a quid is a bit of a pinch to some people and I wanted to make it accessible to all, so no worries there. 🙂

I get asked frequently but it's not available in Excel format for the simple reason that it doesn't exist in that format. I do it in CorelDraw, which few people own and even fewer can use. 😁

Thanks, well worth a quid.

Times are online for Avalon Cafe: http://www.fieldofavalon.co.uk

i was a good icle girl..sorry only a quid!!! would of paid more!!! xxx

Glastowatch website have leaked copies of the Guardian guide up on their website.

Hey Halvin,

Thanks for the clashfinder, its a real festival-must. Happy to donate a pound!

Just one thing - I seem to be having trouble opening the file right now. When I click the (big blue) link, my computer is attempting to open it with Adobe 9, and saying error, the file wa not found or saomething.

Any ideas?

Anyone else having this problem?

BIG GLASTO LOVE...

See you all there THIS TIME NEXT WEEK!!!!!

Halvin,

You are a legend.

I assume you will be wearing a 'I am Halvin' T-shirt or badge. You won't have to buy a single drink.

Thanks

No, I'm afraid not. I don't have times for Stonebridge or any space to add them. I do hope to be able to add Croissant Neuf soon, though.

so halvin there is lots of differences between your wonderful grid and the leaked "official" guardian guide. whats your verdict - is the guide bobbins?

A band called Homecut say they are playing the Cabaret stage at 3pm on the sunday - but the clashfinder has something else listed.

http://music.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=music.showDetails&friendid=45005019&Band_Show_ID=38539831

Any ideas?

g dog said:

The guide's not too bad except for Dance East (maybe West). There are normally a few discrepancies between the guide and actual running order. Hopefully the clashfinder's roughly right but only time will tell.

That seems to be some new information, which would have been decided after the guide went to press, so they probably are playing that slot. They're probably not on at 3pm exactly, they'll be in the slot that starts just before 3.

Halvin...

Top job as usuall, I've made a donation & hope lots of other people do too (for the sake of Mrs.Halvin).

You must get a great feeling when you see others at the festival making good use of your work. And I've stuck your link on my Facebook page to spread the word.

Hopefully your ISP won't shut you down this year for having too much traffic!

All the best,

Mac

sweet. so you are saying you are right and the guide is wrong.

love it!

g dog said:

I wouldn't go quite that far. I've been sent some times for the Dance Village that disagree with the guide. I know there was some last minute juggling with the DV line-up. I hope that the information I was sent is correct and that the guide's wrong, due to the long lead-time of the guide.

So I'm not saying that I'm right, I'm just saying that I had the choice between two sources and I picked the one that I thought was right. 🙂

For the record, last year the clashfinder was more accurate than the guide. Just. 😁

thanks for the clash finder, we used it last year to highlight all the bands we wanted to see before we went...of course all that goes out of the window once we're there...but never mind, at least it helps us to get excited ! 😁

halvin said:

Anyone excited yet?

I m very excited, i was shown your clashfinder last night by a friend and its amazing! I never knew it existed, thankyou lots 🙂

I have donated you a pound for your flowers, i hope you can get a big bunch 🙂

Ha firstly i was chuffed to pieces to be shown this clashfinder then i look at your other stuff just to see what its all about and you ve only gone and had s stag do in the village i work in (Woolacombe!) Good work and thankyou 🙂

I'd been wondering how I could buy you a drink - have donated to Mrs H's flowers instead - Cheers

No, I don't know. The wild stab-in-the-dark on eFestivals is Wreckless Eric and Amy Rigby, although that doesn't seem to be based on any evidence.

clashfinder is way better but:

Thanks but I've had the info for a while. In fact, I've got a complete guide sitting in front of me now. 😁

Hi Halivn,

Stunning work on the clashfinder (as always) - any chance of adding the Departure Lounge times?

Thanks for the link but I can't add it, sorry. There's absolutely definitely not any room left and if I took something off someone would moan about it. 🙂

thanks..............:D 😁 xx

According to Little Boot's latest mailing list e-mail she's playing the Guardian Lounge (says tent but I assume it's the same) on the Saturday not the Friday.

You can now create your own custom clashfinders at http://www.mavit.org.uk/clashfinder/. I'd hoped to get this up and running sooner, but I suppose this is just soon enough to be not-quite too late :-). They're not as pretty as the ones here, but I think they're okay for a fisrt attempt. I also include The Departure Lounge, which Halvin doesn't have room for. Thanks to Halvin for supplying his data.

Hal you are a fount of all knowledge. Good work fella. I trust you'll be bringing spare copies along for when I inevitably forget to print one out?

More importantly what is happening with the Thursday Glasto Pub Crawl? I believe we set you the challenge of getting 1000 people to turn up this year!

That'd be something I've forgotten about. The Thursday Pub Crawl is now Thursday sit outside the Red Flag all day drinking real ale and farting. Tom's on board.

Niel, your task this year is to remember to bring some fags, rum and mixer so you don't end up nicking mine. 🙂

Halvin you are, yet agan, a star 🙂

I don't use paypal but would love to donate. Is there any other way?

There's a bit on the paypal page headed "Don't have a PayPal account?" which allows you to donate with a credit card but without setting up an account, I think.

Other than that, you could always come to the camp with a "Go Cows" flag near the Other Stage and say hello. 🙂

Hal, you need a little bit more organisation than just "erm, we'll be somewhere...."

This is your chance to bask in the glory of all these people who think you've done a good job with your clash finder!!!

Suggest you are outside the Red Flag with a daft outfit on! Let's see if we can still get 1000 people to turn up! That would be quite amusing 🙂

Okay, okay point taken. I shall make sure I am fully stocked with everything I need and keep nicking off you to a minimum - though I can't promise!!

Thanks Halvin. Using your clashfinder for the 3rd year running now - it's my most valuable piece of Glastonbury kit! Decision making is a lot easier but usually ends up with me wandering between about 5 stages on one night at least, trying to see all the bands I want to see!

Shame there don't seem to be any hip-hop dance classes in the dance village this year, they were great fun!

could you add the poetry&words stage now it has been announced please:)

NERD confirmed as special guests

cheers mate as always a brilliant tool for us idiots who always think we're missing out on something.

Couple of quid dropped in the tin.

Have a great festival.

all set and ready to rock and rolll............. got my clashfinder laminated!!! woo woo!! xx love u all! 😁

Almost that time again... BRAP BRAP BRAP

Yeah, if by 'almost' you mean 'a good three months away'. 🙂

3 months is a whole lot better than 12 months! 😁

excited!

Bring it! Looking forward to this years finder. Oh, and the small matter of a festival to attend too!

come on halvin - the line-up has been out for hours now - give us the clashfinder 🙂

big apologies halvin - you really are on the case - as opposed to glastoboy using last years link...

Hello,

Are you going to be doing the clash finder for 2010? It was invaluable last year!

Thanks

Yes: http://www.clashfindergeneral.co.uk/l/g2010/
