Anyone planning on going? I'm registered and will be (hopefully!) getting tickets on Sunday with a few mates.
No it's shite and a total rip off. I uised to go in the 80's and up until the mid 90's but Eavis turned it into Top Of The pops in a field.
My mates been going every year ask me to go all the time, not into camping out and not being able to have a proper wash stinking link a shit works . no thanks too many scummy bastards going nowadays too trying to TAX people . everything it was intended to be about music aside is gone
It was either this or Vegas/LA for me. I went with the America trip, I'll be gutted if Fleetwood Mac headline now as well!
If the wind is in the right direction i can hear Pilton (It's not in Glastonbury it's 7 miles away) in my flat.
Better off stickuing money on a rock band headlining next year after Metallica went so well.Maybe Foo Fighters or Soundgarden.
When they played Pilton last time my mate couldn't wait to see them as he's even older than me, Before they came on his foot got caught in the mud and when he fell over broke his leg so missed them as he was taken to hospital. Shouldn't laugh i know but still gets the piss taken out of him even though it was 7 years ago!
Seeing as it's only a couple of weeks away I thought we could share some of your best moments of the festival. You don't have to have been there, you can have enjoyed watching it from the comfort of your favourite easy chair. Was this really twelve years ago? Brilliant song.

because I'd rather walk a couple of hundred yards from one stage or marquee to the next stage or marquee instead of the kilometres in between stages or marquees at the bigger festivals. At the EOTR festy, you can stand in the middle of the farm and nothing is more than four hundred yards away, and I don't like being too far away from the cider tent, tis my comfort blanket.
Pilton has got far too big now the overcrowding is unbearable, when i first went the limit was 20,000 which was perfect but Eavis got greedy and ruined it, he says he doesn't make any money from it,f*ck off! He's hated in Glastonbury and the surrounding towns and villages as he gives nothing back to the locals.
Foo Fighters pull out after Grohl broke his leg also cancelled their other UK dates at Wembley and Murrayfield
