So many Metallica rumours, surely someone on here must know if they are going to be playing or not?!

Interesting....
My Glasto experience each year is as follows
Wake up try for a ticket
Get a ticket and get excited.
Forget about Glastonbury until end of March
Line up gets released get excited
forget about Glastonbury until June
Pack for Glastonbury

That time of year again.
The guy 'in the know' has posted yes to bands playing when I 100% know they are not, so take this with a pinch of salt. No details as I do not know who is playing, well, only a handful at this time. But I do know who isn't.
There is going to be a few disappointed people!

over zealous security involving regular full body pat downs (2 of my friends' group had been kicked out for minimal amounts of mdma by saturday),

Can you not look over the top of the ribbon tower if you are on the hill? Therefore, my answer would be the hill.

I've cut the tails off but still got mine on. I'm 19 and at university and it's deemed kind of 'cool' to have dirty pieces of cloth on your wrist so i'll keep it on until i get bored or annoyed with it.

Haha I live on the mean streets of south east London and have never been mugged, nor has my girlfriend or any of my friends. I can't think of anyone that's been mugged at all. Though I have been burgled once when I lived in sw London.
It pains me to say it, but it's one of the worlds great cities. It's got everything.
-
...also no body here actually knows what they were paid, how they came to that figure or any details of the deal.

Took mine off as soon as I got home.
I am yet to see a Glastonbury wristband still on around London. The only wristbands I ever see are Wireless and V Festival, which if you think about the creatures that go there makes perfect sense.

I had a really good time. There was only 3-4 acts I wanted to see all weekend. I didn't fancy the Artic Monkeys so I went to Shangra La early got into heaven and had a blast for a couple of hours before DJ Yoda who impressed me.
Hives, Stones, Foals and Steve Aoki were awesome and the only 4 acts I wanted to see. I took my group to see these and then followed them to The Heavy, Of Monsters and Men over the weekend which I really enjoyed. Apart from that saw some other acts I would never normally see.
I thought there was lack of artists I wanted to see and being more into music than the bimbling around type I thought I would not enjoy the days as much as I normally do. However, completely worked in my favour as in my usual stubborn ways I will sacrifice a lot of the festival to see acts I have seen before because I like them. Turns out seeing new bands with your mates that love the band/recommend them is just as good as missing someone you half wanted to see.
One thing that annoyed me was the amount of times girls go to the toilet!

My work colleague who is around 47 from the Caribbean, grew up in Hackney and used to attend raves in the bad days of Kingsland road etc is always fascinated about when I go to festivals and what they are like/what we get up to. He always tells me that he would have never gone to one because of the camping. Even if he was 21 again he couldn't have brought himself to camp for 5 days.
-
Try this: ask people if they sit or stand when wiping their arses. The camps are approximately 50:50 accross the population, but each side of the argument is surprised to find that the other exists.
-
I can take or leave them. Their set was average, when they were good they were good but when they didn't play their 'bouncy' tunes they were very very dull.
I personally do not think they have enough good songs to headline.

. Where was this. I ended up drinking a bit too much skittles vodka and this sounds a bit like me *embarrassed*
-
Whilst waiting for Mumford and Sons this couple came up to us and said "excuse me, is this the pyramid stage"
The best walk home we had on Saturday night we had this couple having a domestic behind us, we had to slow our pace to take it the conversation.
Girl: Whats your problem with me
Boy: You were flirting with everybody and then suddenly turned on me
Girl: That's because your a f******* C***
She then began to throw words like exasperated at him while at the same time losing her voice until she was just opening her mouth and thinking she was shouting at him. The poor lad didnt know what to do.

Two flags really annoyed me this year,
The Dyson one and the blue one with a moon on it. They both had a crappy pole and sat just above the crowd.

Rihanna
Fleetwood Mac
Oasis

I've just bought a 3G data plan so I can watch the second test on my iPad. Call me a loser if you like but I'm well chuffed! My iPad will be firmly hidden in a lockup till Saturday morning, it certainly won't be with me the whole festival. Now I just need to be sure the signal will be strong enough...
-
Just picked up some cereal bars and pringles to munch on. However,I'll also be treating myself to the various food stalls on site, I bloody love eating at Glasto!
-
are you or the person you hope to flog the ticket to even registered? :-)

It's come from another source that there is a ram takeover on Arcadia Friday night, if this is true then andy c will be there and it makes more sense personally as andy c is not really current to radio1 dance music, they are leaning alt more towards house at present
-
Nope. I have no problem whatsoever with sport "in the real world".
But I go to glastonbury to get away from all that. To get away from all the silliness of the real world (and sport is incredibly daft if you think about it).
That's my view.
Thankfully, the festival organisers seem to be on my wavelength.
-
Mine gets taken off after the festival and binned as well.
As for a constant reminder, I don't see it myself. It is hardly like you wake up and think did I go to a festival this year? Oh shit, yes I did! Good job I still have my well worn and stinking wristband on to remind me.

Interesting, do you have a source?
I can tell you first hand this is 100% not the case over the last 5 years.
