You entered it down some steps into a hole dug under a tent, there weren't any tunnels.

It was a piano and karaoke bar and it was fucking funny.

And it only existed for one year

yup, we spent ages trying to remember where it was and find it the following year :(
 
i spotted it cos loads of people were leaving what looked like a small tent - it was like some old silent movie gag with 20 cops getting out of a car or something.

I'm hoping to get some proper folky dancing in, hopefully with company but if needs be I shall dance alone...!

Ha ha i'm not sure i'll be able to contend with your "electric" dancing but i'll give it a go :oops:

Stop saying stuff like this, or I'm going to tie you to one of the speaker stands at the Pyramid stage and do the damn festival on my own.

I'll be fine :D

I don't think I got to bed much before Sunrise on any of the five nights I was there in '05 & I certainly wasn't sitting around contemplating my navel into the small hours. :D

Don't think I've ever been to sleep before Sunrise ever at Glasto. Get yourseldf down to Lost Vagueness and you can drink, dance, play the casino, rollerdisco and eat in the silver service restauraunt until morning:)

I've just heard a nasty rumour that the Silver Service Restauraunt may have been scrapped. I quite fancied giving that a go this year. :(

One, dearest LordCam i will folk dace with you. Im not sure what you mean by that but i'll give you some tips for sure, i have some experience in these matters. However if you do tie LauraLuv to a speaker there will be words. Ones like 'thats mean' and 'tush! You cad!'


You heard me! Run in fear.

(p.s anyone know how to quote within quotes? Seems this system is different to the one i'm used to.
 
Speaking of underground places, can anyone confirm that there is a tunnel that leads from somewhere in the green area to somewhere in the circus area? Just a small one. I'm sure I went under such a tunnel once, or perhaps my mind is playing tricks with me :confused:

Goes under what would have been the railway line way back when.

I have a recollection of it being speakered and lit amusingly some years, and just weird others..

Call me a cad and I'll do it some more; gotta get rid of this harmless puppy dog tag somehow.

there's a couple under the railway line - there's one that cuts from the Greenfields into another bit of the Greenfields. They wired up some paving or similar once so that when you walked through it, it flashed lights and made noises. :)

there was an artificial one one year that led to the back of the circus field. I remember it as being very white and a bit mysterious.


there's only one tunnel under the railway sfaik
 
There's a small piece about The Tunnel with a photo in my FAQ's.

It was 2000 that they had the ambient reactive sound system in there but it never seemed to work properly.
