What's Glastonbury like?

I'd like to see her, but standing around in a muddy field doesn't sound like much fun.

headlining with a descent time slot and time allocation, new material hopefully, should be a great show
if it is indeed amy who they're lining up

the muddy field thing does put me off, but id like to try the festival thing at least once, for the experience

That's really really good, but I'm not going to get too excited until it is officially confirmed.

Lee, a festival without a muddy field and rain is not a festival. But I'm not much of a festival fan myself either, most of the bands I'm not interested in or I don't even know. I went to a festival for the first time last year because Amy was coming, so there you go, I've had the experience and don't need to go again. :)

And isn't Glastonbury really expensive and hard to get tickets for? I've heard quite some British people travel to Belgium for the Rock Werchter festival because that's actually cheaper.

It's only £125 for the weekend, which I think is well cheap considering the amount of people you see, that's only £50 for each day the music's on we usualy get there on the wednesday which is a bonus.
You just need good waterproofs & wellies. You never know as they've moved it along by a week this year, the weather might be a bit nicer, but all you need is a little bit of a shower & 150,000 people turn a little bit of water & a field into a complete bog.

Anyway, some people are so good you forget you're standing in a puddle (Ahem..Amy)

Oh, only £ 125? That's pretty good, hardly more than Rock Werchter here, which is basically the Belgian Glastonbury. I never paid much attention to how much it costs, people were always saying how ridiculously expensive it is..but really it isn't.

And hey, I'll stand in a puddle of anyting to see Amy (well, almost anything).


Oh the idea of going to Glastonbury myself if Amy is indeed performing just popped up in my head. Probably not the best idea though. The travelling costs, getting a ticket, probably not finding anyone to go with me and an big big entrance exam only a couple of days later... Don't think it will work.

My dad used to go out with Michael Evis' daughter : ) who runs it,
He had free tickets that year, but I was too young to go really.
Now I just keep telling him to go back to her : ) just for tickets haha, but he's too nice really : )

But me + my friends are thinking about going this year,
My dad said he would probably drive us down + him + his friends would just go off + do their own thing, + we can do the same :D !
It's really hard to get tickets though, you have to register next month, + apply on the 6th of march i think it is!
It's sort of like a lottery, + they put your photo on the tickets to stop them from going on ebay + that!

I hope we do go!
Festivals are great! I went to a much much smaller one a few years back,
Getting pissed + listening to great music - what more can you ask for!
Glastonbury is supposed to be THE ONE though!

+ Amy would just make it all that much better!

I had a friend who's dad could get her free festival tickets and backstage passes too. I so should have asked for a backstage pass to get to Amy.
And apparently Amy had been at the festival the day before already and was seen watching a band herself, imagine you're watching a band and she's there right next to you. I bet nobody even knew who she was.
