I’m seriously thinking of bringing my Air Guitar to Glasto for the first time, but I’m wondering if it’s a sensible thing to do.

It has tremendous sentimental value to me as it used to belong to my late uncle ‘Mad Dog’ - a big Sabbath Fan.

I don’t want to carry it around with me all the time (the air flight case is massive), and I don’t really want to leave it in my tent. Is there any where safe I could leave it during the festival?

Please Help

Personally I feel a distinct lack of bands which I could air guitar too this year


EXCEPT SPINAL TAP

I don't usually venture out of my room with it, but maybe this time it'll come out.

If you get one of those compression bags with the airtight seals, they pack up really small.

You can certainly air guitar to Neil Young!

Be very careful with it. I brought along my very expensive air guitar to America in 2005 and it went missing. The bloody cheek of the airport staff!

Don't do it!

I took mine last year, and it got stolen right from under my nose whilst I was making my way through the Other Stage crowd.

I've got a new one now, but the other one had memories.
You just can't replace something like that.  :(

I have a real air guitar. All it is is a speaker and a pick. I kid you not. Should I take this?

I'm taking mine, I almost pulled with it during Ash at Leeds a couple of years ago so I reckon if I really go for it at Glasto I'm gonna get well lucky  :(
