I've never been to Glastonbury either, but used to watch it on TV. I stopped watching the coverage several years ago, but intend to watch some of it again this year.

Anyone who has never been and is just watching it on telly may be blissfully ignorant of the reality, which is down there under the crowd's feet (don't even think about sitting down), and the thousands-strong push across the fields, with the five bar gate-wide bottlenecks when everybody leaves to go to another stage. It was chaos then and I don't imagine it's got any better.
Attending one now would probably end me, though if I could just watch it from the comfort of a straw bale with Lauren Laverne, maybe...
Yes. It's OK for those in their teens I guess, but not me.Quote:
