I dont think so , not much she could do , a lot of people including us took that distraction as our opportunity to get in unchecked ( which we did )

I still chuckle at this from years ago Walking down the hill of death and getting to the gate we passed security searching a mature ladies freezer box on a table and the security guard pulled out the biggest bread knife . It glinted in the sunlight like a samurai sword. Holding it aloft like a warrior I just heard security say very politely " Madam i can't let you take that in "

My mate Bible Barry will be driving the coach for Sheffield No talking, food , drink ,using your phones. You will be given some Mormon literature to read and study and religious recitals are piped through the pa.

AC/DC are best for that , maybe one or two off the new album whatever it is then the rest of it all the classics mainly from Back in Black, Highway to Hell, , Let There Be Rock

I have the recurring nightmare that it gets to Sunday and I have not seen any bands, in fact have not done anything but faff around my tent since Weds. Although i once dreamt one of our group decided we should camp outside the fence which caused us numerous problems, although it was a nice quiet field that we had to ourselves.

Being 100% sober i had never noticed it before !

Because of work commitments i arrived one year around 5.00am on the Thursday , parked my car , got my tent up and i was still wide awake and sober becuase of the drive , mates were all fast asleep so i went for a wander. Going into the SEC sober, coffee in hand and wide awake was a revelation. I then realised how many mashed up people there were and the amount of nose candy being consumed in the morning sun light was quite staggering.

I think the rush to get Arctic Monkeys tickets for their 2023 tour proves it is not affecting people yet or is it just being put on the back burner ?

Same weekend as Glastonbury there is an Adventure Bike Festival £109 a ticket and i get to ride my bike round a huge field. But then again Stone Circle from 4.00 am is a wonderful thing !. I once met a couple up there after Metallica on the Sat night and they had not moved from the Stone Circle field since the Weds.

Not sure i would be doing Glastonbury V Stafford Leeds In the same year now !

My mate was spending over a £1k for a weekend in Ibiza years ago

My mate volunteered one year and because he can drive lorries his shifts were really easy. Just driving round the festival site doing jobs for them mainly in the quiet early mornings. So anyone with a driving licence it is worth pointing that out possibly.

Although I have gone in a group , differing musical tastes meant I have spent a fair bit of time on my own and have suffered low points . And not wanted to ring home to cause worry there.

I don’t think the licence will allow bands on the main stages Thursday .

That’s the exact date and about the exact time I asked someone in Big Ground “ If they fancied a bimble and a coffee ?” We went to The Amish Cafe and we have just celebrated 12 years together.

I remember one year, i had to spend some time in my tent at Big Ground due to over indulgence - The Pyramid Stage sound test song was Atlas by Battles and being too f*****d to move or do anything i felt i was being taunted by it and it was messing with my head. That song will always remind me of that !

I hope their equipment does not get stuck in the baggage fiasco ?

I bet their manager is wishing they had declined a few gigs in California and set off for the UK earlier ?

The issue is Multi-Packs must not be sold separately - so please do not split them

We saw him at Newcastle Arena quite a few years ago. He started playing some Jazz Fusion stuff and during a quiet bit i presume a huge Neil Young fan, stood up from his seat waving his arms shouting " This is rubbish , what is this rubbish ?"

I will be sat with Roy Keane and he is bringing the sandwiches. Any ideas on fillings ?

I was at Underneath The Stars Festival near Barnsley yesterday. I was worried line up would be a bit folky for me , but i loved all the acts. "This sounds like Massive Attack " was mentioned a few times. Lovely festival , everyone seems to plonk camping chairs down for the day , but it was not an issue for me , i just stood or sat on the grass. £4 for a pint of Citra ( no paying for glasses ) and there was a converted horse trailer selling Bandido's IPA at £4.50 which was moreish. Other than for a late night coffee there was no q's for the bar or the loo's , and the food stalls looked amazing. Mr Plant cancelled on the Sat for some reason , but they managed to get The Staves at 24 hr notice - which was not bad going. Lanterns on the Lake also cancelled which proper pissed me off as i was so looking forward to seeing em on a outdoor stage. If anyone from the band or their management reads this then an explanation would be nice.
