*misses pear cider already*
Strawberry cider is where it's at. Especially when you can buy it in nicely sized bottles.
Walking upto Crispy and Sparrow as they were still on mushrooms in a rather glittery mask.
I'd never seen eyes do that before!
(and I seem to have started posting different stories all over the shop)

One of my posse actually ended up with trench foot but he did decide to sleep outside and not take his shoes off for more than a coupleof hours at a time

No bands, no cider, no comedy, no weird shit, no bonkers stuff and not even any mud!
Couldn't hear that cool as fuck techno tent from across the dragon field. How sweet was that... the camping stewards were cool with it but the 'heavy' security not. Of course, they had another sound system at hand to deal with one getting impounded

That was a wicked little find!

I think I posted this on one of the Glasto threads (
)<edit> top of previous page of this one.
Their first rig was impounded by Security at about 3 am. They blagged another one less than an hour later, then carried on for nearly another 7 hours into Monday morning, before being busted again ....
They're as sorted as fuck those Astro Cafe people. They seem to get back every year, every year I expect them not to be allowed to return ....

From what I gather so far, sounds like y'all had a great time 
apart from Dub.
My work mate here said it was one of the best & managed to score so much stuff! Even a back stage pass dropped in the mud & just before she left yesterday, a decent tent, double blow-up mattress, sleeping bag, & a fold up chair due to all the stuff that was left behind.
Glad that the apocalyptic storm didn't seem to dampen the Glasto spirit - if anything it would sure be one to remember. Or maybe not depending on the amount of pharmaceuticals consumed!
So the techno tent was back at the dragon field too - sweet!

I thought about it.
I even got round to sending a text or two.
But I'm shy......
Did you see me hanging about in green crafts????
it was the best of times, it was the worst of times.
if i try and ignore why i had a fucking dreadful time, i can see that this looked like the best Glastonbury for years. which i think continues the process of 'relaxation' which has steadily followed the inevitable tightening up of things after 2000.

we got back last night - and dervish has managed an impressive 18 hours sleep with no sign of movement yet i've done three loads of washing meanwhile.
sadly noodle my goldfish did not appreciate me leaving him alone and passed away whilst i was at glasto
i had a nice time this year. working in control during the storm certainly got the adrenaline going for a while.
not the best glasto in recent years but not the worst by a long shot.

Friday morning was pretty scary in the tent with all the thunder and lightening - we were up the top of Wicket(?) field - top left hand corner of the site - so the tent and contents were fine - however to get anywhere else on the site we had huge lake to wade across which came over the top of my walking boots - my lovely bloke went on a trek round the site to get me some wellies though and all was well after that
Highlights - Brian Wilson & Pear Cider
Lowlights - people who poo on the toilet seat rather than in it & not being able to get even closed to the acoustic tent to see Tori Amos & a random man being sick right next to wear I was sat bleerrghhh!
I didn't come to the cider bus - I would have been to scared to speak to anybody I think - next time maybe....

In 2007?!
I found the toliets alright - smelly at all times (even the long drops were rancid).
And one more highlight - the camera obscura in the greenpeace field. Remarkable stuff
Could look directly at the sun with it.

What a wicked Glastonbury!
...I can't even think of where to begin! I've been back for a day and a half and i'm still suffering glastonbury-lag brought on by relentless rounds of gigging, working and getting munted! I'm sure i managed to sleep between last monday and yesterday at some point...
Gutted i totally forgot about the location of the meet-up , it would have been nice to put some faces to names
ROLL ON 2007!!!

Had a great time as per usual, although I seem to recall enjoying it more than I actually thought I did at the time
Saturday was pretty shit, the mud really drains your energy but every other day was fantastic. I saw a record low number of bands on the main stages (just baxement jaxx and brian wilson - both excellent) and spent more time than ever seeing mad shit above the railway line. Favourite stage had to be the sensation seekers stage in the circus fields, had an amazing night there seeing "the von trolley quartet" and "jason webley", convinced my m8s to go there sunday afternoon where we enjoyed a game of glastonbury bingo. I think a year off is a good thing and i know ill be bursting with excitement come 2007.
Oh yeh, how could i ever forget, the burger van in the dance village was fucking amazing - totally rekindled my love of DnB - they played it every night till I could take no more, and had the most beautifull women dancing behind the counter...every so often they would stop the music and shout out "anyone want any burgers"

Just got back last night after stopping off in Bath at a mates place. Had a great time and ended the weekend with another fantastic tipi field handfastening. It was good to meet everyone at the cider bus on Wednesday. It's all a bit hazy as i was fuelled by a little too much pear cider and skunk truffles
I hope Lord Cam looked after the sign after i had to go and fall over somewhere

It was me that had it... it vanished somewhere that night en route back to base camp
