Who's Ready For The Glastonbury Festival?

[Blake_Wildfong]

Are you ready to have a blast at the Glastonbury festival? Let me know

[Mamyalynne]

Are you coming over Blake?

My Daughter often goes, not sure if she plans to this year.

[Blake_Wildfong]

I am not able to come due to school and money, but I'm sure your daughter will have a blast there! I've personally never heard of it till a month ago.

[Mamyalynne]

You should be able to see parts televised then at least.

[Maydup]

Its a sore point! Tickets sold out in seconds and we have very disappointed ticketless family members again this year.

It would be way too busy for me now, but I did go back in my youth when you just turned up with your tent and a back pack. Either paid on the gate, or walked in over the fields!

[TonyV]

Not my idea of fun anymore, getting bogged down in mud, TV a far better option these days.

[ummmm]

I've been a few times. I just couldn't be bothered with trying to get tickets anymore..

It's a weeks holiday.

[douglas9401]

Too much like hard work for someone of Daltrey's years.

[ummmm]

Tony....I went the year there was no rain. I came home looking like I'd spent 2 weeks in the med.

[Blake_Wildfong]

Plus, that weekend my sister will be gone for her 2 year marriage anniversary. I'll be bag my niece, who will be 6 months old

I’ve applied to help out with various organisations. Free entry. Help out a few days. Get the rest of the week free to enjoy the acts.

[waterboatman]

I used to go every year, with a friend. Always good fun.

[emmie]

never been, nor had the desire to do so.

[emmie]

its a lot easier to watch it on tv, plus if the weather is bad it matters not a jot if one is at home

[ummmm]

It's the atmosphere. You don't get that from the TV.

Must admit though...I bloody hate tents.

[emmie]

i object to the rubbish they leave behind. Their carbon footprint must be high.

[ummmm]

It's awful. People do try though. They just can't empty the bins fast enough.

They have to go over everything with a fine tooth comb. 1 cigarette butt could kill a cow.

They employ lots of locals.

[emmie]

the clean up bill must be horrendous.

[waterboatman]

It is emmie. I can honestly say we never left any rubbish at all.

[ummmm]

Yes but if take into account the cost of the pitches. Some of them are as much as 5k a day.
