OG Posted May 5, 2017 Report Share Posted May 5, 2017 (edited) This is gong to end up with no conclusion.

Popsider75 Posted May 5, 2017 Report Share Posted May 5, 2017 This year will be my 18th. First was 1995 , missed the following one but been every year since.

Mr.Tease Posted May 5, 2017 Report Share Posted May 5, 2017 The strangely addictive trauma of 13 glastonbury's worth of ticket days has left me like Christopher Walken at the end of the Deer Hunter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grumpyhack Posted May 5, 2017 Report Share Posted May 5, 2017 But I cheat and count Glastonbury -2 and -1 in my list as these two inspired what became Glastonbury Would still be happy to see a fair few of these today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
guypjfreak Posted May 5, 2017 Report Share Posted May 5, 2017 Looks like lots of newbies going.. Think us vets should get to get our tickets early.... I mean stands to reason we need to get our tickets first cos we're old and might not make the next one....... Great thinking that.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevie P-alike Posted May 6, 2017 Report Share Posted May 6, 2017 My first was 2013 - my kids took me to celebrate my 60th birthday, What a bonus, as it was Stones year (my all time favourite band). Absolutely loved it, so went again last year, and have also got tickets this year. For a while I was going on my own, as I bought a single coach ticket in the resale. Luckily, one of my sons got 4 more tickets in the normal resale, so at least I have somebody to hang around with Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moremi Posted May 6, 2017 Report Share Posted May 6, 2017 Going since 2007 so 9 in a row. 10th this year, going strong at 64. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fingers_mark Posted May 6, 2017 Report Share Posted May 6, 2017 This will be 15. Missed 2003 as away travelling. First was sixth form. We bought tickets on my mum's credit card on the Tuesday before. Headed down to collect it from Castle Cary train station on the Friday morning. Remember arriving as Bjorn Again could be heard on the Pyramid. Best 2010 or 2013. Worst (well, least enjoyable) 2005 due to Friday tent flooding and having no wellies (lesson learned!) for the Friday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DareToDibble Posted May 6, 2017 Report Share Posted May 6, 2017 I've skewed the results, too. Read the first few posts and included this year. Managed to get tickets every year since 2014 so this will be my 4th. Here's hoping my luck continues after the fallow year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Homer Posted May 6, 2017 Report Share Posted May 6, 2017 I've missed one since 94 (97 thankfully) and I'm going next month. If anyone can work out what that equates to then you're a better man/woman than me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Levitz Posted May 6, 2017 Report Share Posted May 6, 2017 6 but another who didn't include this year, so 7 if we're doing it that way. Should get YouGov in........ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bathimp Posted May 6, 2017 Report Share Posted May 6, 2017 Litter picking this year to make sure that I get to my 20th festival since 1985. The votes so far show a good spread which I guess represents the good spread of age groups on site. It would be much appreciated if you could keep the pyramid field clean to make my shifts go quicker. Thanks in advance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love that yellow and blue poster and have considered getting a print. But the way the Bath & West showground font slopes upwards plays all sorts of merry hell with OCD tendencies.

grumpyhack Posted May 6, 2017 Report Share Posted May 6, 2017 (edited) Festivals owe a lot to Fred Bannister. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Freddy_Bannister I cut my musical teeth on the US West Coast bands he brought over for his weekly shows at Bath Pavillion Edited May 6, 2017 by grumpyhack Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dominic1983 Posted May 6, 2017 Report Share Posted May 6, 2017 This year will be my 10th - been every year since 2005, apart from 2015 when I failed to get a ticket :-/ That makes me feel old realising it'll be my tenth! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
