Blogs from the bog

We've all just about woken up now and are ready for another day of rain and soap-dodging. There should be blog action from acts as diverse as CSS and Paolo Nutini, plus all the information from around site as we get it. (will Noel Gallagher turn up for an acoustic set as is rumoured?)

For now get your teeth into these blogs from Alexis Petridis on the feelings of a glasto veteran and Eugene Hutz of Gogol Bordello on festivals east and west and James Ford of Simian Mobile Disco on how to make a festival anthem (as he did last time around with We Are Your Friends).

Plus, over on CiF, read Carl Barat on preserving the Glasto magic (with mentions of the nanny state to boot!)
