I hasten to add - had it not been for meeting him, I may never have looked back at that moment, and seen the sight (could say 'site' too there, I reckon). It was truly mesmerizing. Before he focused on me, he was like a Bisto Kid with happy bewilderment - or, that was my conclusion, at least. -

I would say that the first ever Glastonbury Festival that I attended was the most ranked, but annot. That was a fabulous event, for sure. However, the most glorious, and almost spiritual moment, came in a later year than that initial immersion. I was camped at 'Top Webb's Ash', or some such, and had walked down the hill, to the right of the Pyramid Stage. I can't recall the exact layout, but I bumped into someone I knew who had just turned a corner and seen what was behind me. It was a sea of tents, all in the late evening sunshine. there were open fires. Fires which produced a band of smoke above the tents, but still at low level above the surrounding campsites. It was the look on his face that gave me that, almost spiritual, moment. It was as if he'd died and gone to heaven. And then he saw me and laughed. It was his first Glastonbury.. I could see the marvel within his eyes. -
New album isnt the best is it? Had a few listens now and it's very beige and I quite like a few of his previous ones. The one massive track on there 'adore you' feels like an older one now too as it's been out on Spotify for months and months. Bit lame really including that on there in my opinion given how long it's been out. A 5 or 6 out of 10 album at best. Feels like he's throwing albums out way too quickly as well for his age. He's still relatively the new kid on the block and this is already his 4th proper album of his own and that doesn't include any of his side projects either. Needs to slow down and focus on quality over quantity. 3/4 of that new album is just filler and very very bland. He's definitely an other stage headliner now without a doubt. Is he a pyramid stage headline act? On this year's standards he probably is but I'd like to think this year's lineup was rock bottom for the festival in the last 15/20 years. -

This year was my first year back since 2019 and the first time the kids have been back since 2017. Have to say I was apprehensive after the overcrowding and crush stories that I read of the post covid festivals, but we had absolutely no issues at any time. We were pretty low key participants this year, but just having a 'normal' chilled festival didn't expose us to any crowd issues at all. We didn't go out of our way to avoid anything (apart from the pyramid for most of Sunday). I've been going since 2007 and I didn't really see any difference this year at all. Sunday was a weird day, usually the day I don't enjoy anywhere near the pyramid, so we avoided that all day until the headliner, but as we all know that was deserted and I believe the rest of the day around there wasn't the usual crush. We saw lots of people leaving through gate C as we went in and out a couple of times, so I think there were less people on site on the Sunday than usual, so no guarantee for next year for you. I don't think you'll have any real issues when you go 🙂 -
