dirtysteve Posted July 1, 2009 Report Share Posted July 1, 2009 This was my 5th festival in a row too. Whilst I still had an amazing time, I was acutely aware that I've got a little one back at home now and sitting in a field for 5 days doing as many drugs as possible just isn't as pleasurable as playing with my son! So, decided that this was my last mad one and we'll do the family thing next year and see a different side to Glastonbury. I've done enough staggering around those fields tripping out of my mind!!!

Hopefuly going to South America next year so I seriously doubt I could afford it, or may not even be in the country but I'l do everything I can Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glastonbury_2011 Posted July 1, 2009 Report Share Posted July 1, 2009 (edited) I've thought about this for a while since leaving and I won't be returining next year. I want to keep the experience at Glastonbury fresh and exciting so i'm going to try a few smaller festivals in 2010.

ampersand Posted July 1, 2009 Report Share Posted July 1, 2009 If England play during Glastonbury, they'll show it somewhere. I remember the 1/4 final against Portugal in Euro 2004 at the Pyramid stage - UNBELIEVABLE!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TokiDoki Posted July 1, 2009 Report Share Posted July 1, 2009 Our group dwindled massively this year from about 30 in 2008 to just 6. Most of them decided they could only afford one festival (or no festivals) and Benicassim was chosen over Glasto. A travesty! I'll definately be going next year!

oafc0000 Posted July 1, 2009 Report Share Posted July 1, 2009 Looking at the schedule, it's possible for an England group game to take place on the Wednesday or Thursday. If that's the case, it'll be on at the Pyramid stage again - everyone's a winner. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Flip Posted July 1, 2009 Report Share Posted July 1, 2009 mmmmmm...... nah! Reading about the percentage of pondlife, overcrowding and the sh*thead security on the campervan gate just reiterates my underlying belief that Glasto has lost it...

glastofun Posted July 1, 2009 Report Share Posted July 1, 2009 I'm not sure why many people are assuming they'll get tickets....although this year was easy, next year may not be. I think if they remain with the deposit scheme in October then it should be ok as many 'casual' goers don't decide so far in advance...also the idea of having staggered intakes of people may make some people think more before deciding whether or not they want to go. Does anyone know if the October deposit scheme is still on? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Topless Skateboarding Nun Posted July 1, 2009 Report Share Posted July 1, 2009 does a bear shit in the woods?

Guest Flip Posted July 1, 2009 Report Share Posted July 1, 2009 (edited) I think some people forget about the days of 250,000 turning up on site and those days being thought about as some of the best days Edited July 1, 2009 by Flip Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oafc0000 Posted July 1, 2009 Report Share Posted July 1, 2009 Trust me, I would love to return to Glasto, had a love-affair with it from 90 - 00 but only been back twice this decade...last time I had security issues and as a campervan owner who likes a smoke...gate C puts an unacceptable stress on me.. Such a shame.. the overcrowding I mention is not whole-site based, just the fact that HSE limitations now mean any late night fun is crammed into the one area.. Who knows, never say never I guess..

Celtic bhoy Posted July 1, 2009 Report Share Posted July 1, 2009 We had one of our best Glastos yet this year (that was number 5). After a miserable 2007 and last year off (moving house that weekend) we deserved a good un . Will definately be back next year (if we get tickets) although will have a 6 month old in tow next Glasto!
