If I hadn't been to Glastonbury I would never have...

[bexj]

Met my friends Andrea, Jan, Clive and Janet

Danced in the rain

Taken my mum to a festival

 

What would not have done if you'd never been to Glastonbury?

 

[GlastoEls]

Sat on a dragon in a stream...

[H.M.V]

Met my future husband.

[Untz]

Shit in a bin bag.

[Deaf Nobby Burton]

Tried for tickets again the next year 

[Yoghurt on a Stick]

 

Experienced a deep and, to me, meaningful quantity of time where I experienced true freedom. Corny, but true.

[mandolin]

Found the one place where I feel I can truly be myself in the presence of strangers.

[Gnomicide]

Bought an Elbow album, met many amazing people, started a Glastonbury based Twitter account, bored people stupid about it, seen Simon & Garfunkel (though in different years and on different stages), been late for work because an announcement was imminent, fallen over in thick, deep mud and smiled about it, listened to NMAS, Ben Miller Band and many others I eould otherwise never of heard of, been reminded of it by everything from the sound of a long zip to the clang of a metal door.

And shit in a plastic cup.

[CaledonianGonzo]

...have heard something being described as 'Bonkers paper gay'.

[6t6o6m]

Used a bottle of my own wee to keep my hands warm.

[Quark]

Watched my wife's uncle get utterly gillespied on a box of red wine, spend 20 minutes getting increasingly irate and telling us why Harry Secombe was a c**t, and pass out in his chair in the rain.

[maclauk]

Danced the hokey kokey with the drag queens from the NYC Downlow

Have experienced Despacio 

Have been mugged by a flock of ostriches singing Always Look On The Bright Side Of Life

Been able to rate the Rolling Stones as the 3rd best act I'd seen that day.

 

[Fork_UK]

Seen my parents on pills!  

[kingjamma]

Sat on a sofa round a big campfire with loads of people whilst small bands play on a stage made from an army tent. Loved the original location of strummerville but do like the new location. 

[CaledonianGonzo]

Dressed up as a clay sculpture of Lionel Richie's head.

...I would never have seen hula hoop dancers at Jarvis Cocker's DJ set and developed a passion for learning hoop tricks! 

Also, I would never have met SUPERHANS!

 

[moheetoes]

Lost my phone and my friends and had the best time bimbling on my own for a day
