Haven't the youthful masses now grown up enough that raving has infiltrated the generations & society such that we can once again have free festivals?

Or am I still living in a dream yet to be realised...

Still so gutted about glasto...

They can stick it up their arse. They really are piss takers hell bent on squeezing every last penny from you whilst making it as awkward as possible at the same time. Im gonna start a festival in my back garden my dad can come round, he plays the fiddle. Entry is free.

Excellent I'll come to that as well! But Glasto is verging on sacred as far as I'm concerned and anything that Sir Michael does to prevent me & my chums having to pay £700 to some spotty ebay knob-end in order to get there is OK by me. :cool:

Actually that's not quite true as I'm working this year but you get the gyst. ;)
 
The Fence!! Climb the fence!! Dig under it!

Anything! Pre-registering in Millets, with photos and you might not get a tix!

It's madness I say!!

Though if anyone takes me to a photo booth in the next few weeks....:)
 
working at Glasto tort?

I keep meaning to myself at some point, even if its litterpicking, just to put back something for the 11 fantastic years its given me, but its my main holiday dammit!! :p
 
With Glastonbury could you work for that brewers company beer tents thing get your free entry work one shift and then just not bother going back. I guess it would be cheaper and easier in the long run. Would anyone know if you went awol like that.

hmmm do I want to go work, or go play, or not go at all and try somewhere new?

answers on a postcard to fs, fs towers, fs land, up north

Do it!!! On a propa crew blag man, you've sorted it before ... you know the <that rhyming word that it's too cheesy to repeat here :oops: > ;)

Not like an experienced crew person doesn't know how to find enough free spirited time to party ;) :p :D
 
Yeah im still organising it, my mate might bring his record player around aswell. Infact I just checked the weather for the proposed date, its gonna rain, sorry festival cancelled. It probably would of been shit anyway.
 
i see so when you go to get your form from millets they can flog you an indenti-kit tent whith a shit design that leaks and a pants sleeping bag too.

they've got it well sown up :rolleyes:

What a terrible idea!!

anyhow I believe you still pay for your ticket but they reimburse you AFTER the festival, so your nefarious plan wouldnt work :D

yeah I think I might try and get something sorted for this, already had half my crew ask about it, not sure how easy it will be though since we pretty much told the last lot we worked for to go swivel :rolleyes:

anyone needs a crew of people who actually turn up for their shifts give us a yell pls

When the William of Walworth Memorial Retirement Festographers Festival happens (you know, that one that's going to be organised by less lazy people than the honoured Main Man ;) :p ) then 'we' may have some ahem erm :confused: "work" for you .... :p

Hello matey! I'm on the Info stalls. The main man has asked me to for the last 2 Glastos but I've told him that it's a holday for me so no ta. But I'll be getting fucked up at at least 11 other fests this summer so I guess it's about time I stayed reasonably compos mentis & put something back into it for once. :cool:

cool, manning the info stalls would be my job of choice, id love to give munted punters wrong directions ;)
 
June 2007 : Will be my twelfth!! :eek:

Tort's yer main man :cool: for hardcorely reliable factual information and for remembering it, and for posting it here :)

But just remember this :p

.... he remembers, so that means he wasn't there ..... :mad:

... or anyway .... ;)


..... not half as often or so as I was. Where d'yer think I learnt how to be such a lazy useless fucker of a festographer ....

Yet, I instictively know the real Glasto vibe and scene, man ....

Find me near a beer tent or cider bus, or at some old back of a hippy tent weiedness gig, much later on.

Bring quality skunk. I have a free Rizla, baccy and lighter service, and no doubt some proper stash as well ... and alcohol.

This will be relatively early. Later on, shouts may go for "all back to OUR field!!!"
 
Also ....

Throughout the Festival, it will be consistently dry hot and sunny in the day, and dry, cool, light-breezy, clear starry skied and mild, at night ... :cool:

"We affirm that the weather today will be perfect" -- board near to traffic-stewards caravan on main Greenfields drag/old railway crossroads, 2002 :cool: ... said day's joy-promise will be stated again. For over ten days running .... :D


<This "forecast" :D was bought to you by W of W's special-after-a-pissup-early-Saturday-in-January made up speculation service ... :p >
