silent disco

[let's 'ave it!!!]

having been to my first silent disco at reading last year at Reading, just wanted to find out what the glasto one is like, and where to find it? is it in the night when the main stages are finished for the night? and what kind of music does it play, im assuming a diverse mix

any info about it would be great, cheers

Went to the one in the park last year on the wednesday not really knowing what to expect. It was quite good fun. 2 different DJs playing at the same time, and you could tune your headphones in to either. They did 20 minutes or so and swapped to another. Played very cheesy sing along music, which meant that half the dance floor would be singi ng to one tune, and half to another. Taking your headphones off in the middle of all this was nuts. To be honest if I do it again I will try to catch a decent DJ, but it was an experience. No bar in it though, take your own booze.

I think they did something after hours in the glade lst year, and from what I understand it's happening in Dance East this year. Did someone mention Igloo as well?
