I'd go if :
1) There were any decent bands to see
2) There was a No Kids rule
ah well...

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

Agree with you. Full of accountants these days with stupid hats. My first one was '85 when you risked trench foot and cholera and not eating for days and the police wouldn't dare come within a mile of the site. I think we saw some bands but can't really remember who.Originally posted by Pogle View PostIn my day you went for the entertainment off the stages - IYKWIM

It's organised by the same guy (Rob D Bank) who also does Bestival but it's aimed at people with young kids, Dorset isn't too far to go either."Israel, Palestine, Cats." He Said

My kids are right in the age range. Great thing about Glastonbury is the range of stages and music. There's no way i'd listen to anything my boy listens or him mine. But that's why it works. I don't think I ever ended up seeing all I thought I'd see and have always found something new to get excited about.
And yes IKEWYM about the rest.Join the No To Retro Tax Campaign Now
