How much fun did we all have.I'm lying in bed having just watched this video with the biggest smile since I left the festival, so much love to show the world!!!gutted I don't have tickets for next year.
I couldn't overstate how much, at the point in my life, Glastonbury means to me. It is the single most important place in my life and I would truly be lost without it, God forbid a day when I don't get a ticket.
there truly is nothing better than 150000 fellow lefties standing in a muddy field getting wasted. a really liberating feeling and some thing every one so experience. at least once in there lives. i feel sorry for people that slag off glasto because they cant no let go and be them self's. glastonbury really is a life changing experience
part of the magic of glastonbury is mixing with a variety of people from different back grounds, different ages, different tastes and opinions if you want to go to a festival to drink alcopops with the youngens then go to t4 on the beach
thanks for this post. had my fifth glasto this year. and found it really hard to get back to normal life . the festival has become such an imprtant part of my life but it gets harder to leave it behind every year. the bands seem to matter less and less and i just sit around taking it all in
@sweetypie000 too right - the festival is now very much controlled in every sense of the word (and let's not even consider the fact that Coldplay seem to appear every year!) - even though the festival clings to its hippy past.You just need to compare and contrast the people here with some of the videos of the festival back in 1992 - almost a world away.
The video asks a few questions - why oh why do people take kids to Glasto? If they do, why take a pushchair or in fact anything that you need to drag or push?? Why also do many men tend to think wellies are for kids and girls?
i couldnt agree more, i would still go if there was no music, and post glast blues are just unbearable, i love how the how year revolves around Glastonbury, by the time the blues are over you are paying the deposit for next year. i didnt get tickets for 2013 though i am devastated!
Sorry but watching this video has made me not want to go... I'm all for peace love and harmony, music, dancing, good times, and I've been to some wretched port-a-loos in my time.. nah, not for me. I'll be watching from the comfort of my own sofa. Boring maybe, but I'll have the last laugh, trust me.
@sweetypie000 and you're commenting using a subsidary of one of the biggest conglomerates on the globe. I know I'd rather enjoy myself at a festival. Meet new people and accept people whoever they are. Dreadful controlled slaves bopping to the beat of the man collecting tax - so that's everywhere then? You can't stereotype Glasto because there's far too much of it.
Elvis, the Beatles, the Stones and all the other artists whose music entertains us and enriches our lives started out as wannabes.Your kind of cynisism is really just fear of what you might be - if you tried!
