Not flags but always hard to participate in such events. I was at the 1969 IOW festival and it was difficult to hear much, stuck way back behind huge crowds. Ditto The Stones in Hyde Park, forget when that was exactly.

Same year wasn't it?

Bet that costs a FORTUNE.

Trailer tent for me this year. Previously we have rented motorhome and bought caravan. (Way cheaper to buy caravan then sell it afterwards if you dont want to keep it).

Last time I went it was tents - the year Glastonbury decided to allow shroom stalls, before they were criminalised.

Always fancied doing Glasto, but no camping for me, I'd be hiring a Winnebago.

No slumming it with the proles for qh!

You won't be watching anything....just a sea of flags blocking the view

Mind you, last time I went, Elvis Costello was headlining & he was truly woeful.

Nothing much changed there then.

Woe, Woe, and Thrice Woe!

Pretty awful line-up on the Pyramid Stage and no big "heritage act" headlining Saturday or Sunday night.

Haven't even heard of most of them Mind you, last time I went, Elvis Costello was headlining & he was truly woeful.

Inneresting...

Baaaaaa.

Humbug.

Why do you need to leave Wales for all that?

He's leaving one swamp for another. The music might be better, but he'd need to be very selective...

Also, the sheep there don't recognise him....

[Mordac]

Hmm so that week you will be..

Hanging around a load of unwashed smelly people sleeping in tents
Drinking out of bottles and eating what they can find
Everyone stealing from each other
Bad smell from poor sanitary conditions
Knee deep in litter and god knows what.
Everyone off their tits on mind destroying drugs

Ha ha - probably spot on. And thats just Mrs PC.

The "conditions" take some getting used to. Toilets especially. We are "lucky" enough to be in the Disabled camping field so its a bit better. (Saying "lucky", Mrs PC would rather be fit enough not to need to be in there but there we go).

My fav drug of choice for Glastonbury is imodium mind. After a dodgy burger or two, and a large quantity of cider, you really don't want to see a toilet queue of 40 mins when "mrs brown is at the window" so to speak...
