Glastonbury!

[Mana]

So, it's that time of year again. Anyone been watching clips or highlights? What are everyone's thoughts on Glasto? I've never been, but I think it's something I wouldn't mind trying at least once, just for the whole musical, mud-laden experience. :drunk_sing:

[mintygriff]

Yes ive been watching highlights on TV, ive also never been, but would love to one day. Think its almost a right of passage.
This year there has been so many amazing acts playing, i wont list them all! But my best so far has to be Mumford:bounce: and Sons, Paolo :wub2: Nutini, and Paul :mf_rosetinted: Simon.

I've been watching a bit, I caught Coldplay, they were AMAZING! :aah: Missed Mumford & Sons :( Got to catch up somewhere

[Ilse]

Ah, I just have to reply to this. I would LOVE to go to Glastonbury one day! my wish is to go to Coachella next year and Glastonbury the year after...ultimate dream;)

the line-up this year is brilliant; two door cinema club, bombay bicycle club, tame impala, laura marling, mumford and sons, vaccines, naked and famous, joy formidable, foster the people, and the list goes on and on!

I totally agree about the right of passage thing. Mud and all. :rofl: I'm seriously considering going in 2013.

I can't get over this video. It's crazy how many people came out to see Paul Simon! :shocked:

That's perfect timing with Glasto being off next year (I think?). Did you hear that they're expanding Coachella to two weekends?

I went to Glasto in '95 when Pulp headlined and were amazing, Oasis were shite and it was really sunny:wub2:
TBH the whole place smells funky and is full of weirdos but it is something that you should experience.
This year I thought Coldplay were awesome and Beyonce really put on a show-Strange choice for Glasto as it's normally guitar bands.
I went in the Brit Pop Era and had a marvellous time. I would only go again if I could stay in a hotel/campervan- I'm too much of a princess these days. (Blimey this makes me sound really old-im not BTW)

It was amazing how many came out to see Paul Simon, and rightly so too!

I take it you did the camping thing when you went in '95? I like the idea of camping, but I must admit my inner princess doesn't like the idea of this: :aah:
