Donnell RawlingsSite Improvements (it is a wish list..)
More Screens at the pyramid, have 2 stacked in the current position (or large vertical rectangular ones) with the ones the have now next to them, Pyramid field is near enough perfect either way though
Rethink of The Other Stage, zero atmosphere if your more than 50/60 meters back, regardless of whose playing or what time, it's not sloped like the pyramid though which seems to have great atmosphere near enough anywhere
Shangri-la - change it up Hell stage was rubbish last year and heaven not much better, small venues like Shangrilati where amazing though, so either give them slightly more space or add 1/2 more and have them stay open till 8 fri/sat aswell
Also too many high profile DJs playing in the low capacity Love Bullets venue with the hour long ques for entry into LBHQ causing the majority of crowd flow issues at the back of Shangri-la, have a bigger % of these acts playing on the Hell Stage, common sense having the biggest acts on the biggest stage
Unfairground - Have a venue of similar size of Bez's Acid House (which was great last year but long waiting times) in same field there seems to room if get rid of those pointless fair game thingieos
The Park - Have some of the tents (Stonebridge etc) stay open later will help with distribution of crowds in the night
The Common - Slowly becoming the best late area, increase the temples size/capacity if possibly and squeeze in another venue, seems to enough space there especially with the dead space in glasto latino
Former John Peel area - Have they already announced what's being put there? Just camping? If not then an outdoor cinema with one or 2 bars, possibly showing the euros etc
+ more bins at the stone circle!

Augmented Reality with the added use of Internet would be too big a drain on battery and Internet to bother using I think.
The current app works perfectly for looking at the line up and selecting who you'd like to see. As other people have said the likes on footstall and shop info added to the map would be the only real useful benefit to add the app. The lack of good connections on the site didn't really help the find your tent/friends features last year.

Blood sacrifice I think

Anyone been to SummerWells in Romania?
Was looking on doing it this year but work got in the way
-
I'm hoping for New Order
-
Fleetwood Mac - 7/10 great band but not a massive fan, would happily have them headline
Daft Punk - 2/10 Headline the pyramid? No chance couldn't pull it off, 10/10 for headlining Shangrila or a vastly improved dance stage/arcadia
Depeche Mode - 4/10 I'd love to see them, laughable there being considered, then again as again we've had far far worse
Bowie - 10/10 Would be great
Elbow - 3/10 Would give me an excuse to watch a different stage headliner
Oasis - 6.5/10 Can't see it happening, would it be any good
Prince - 10/10 we can dream
Kasabian - 1/10 Not good enough
Arcade Fire - 6/10 Not my cup of tea
-
As the price of a ticket will continue to raise £5/10 year on year I expect the festival will open gates on a tuesday eventually, with more smaller acts on, on the Thursday
-
Had camp set up by about 10AM tried to get a power nap in but couldnt fall asleep (had been up like about 1PM Tuesday aswell).
Ended up having a few drinks round the camp till about 1:30PM, then off exploring, ended up at the brothers bar, then then smallish tent near the cabaret tent that was really packed playing alot of disco tunes, wandered round shangrila etc after there then ended u in London Underground til about 2 which was really good, then the stone circle for sunrise

Tight git...
-
Cut mine off before I'd left Glastonbury town
-
Definitely needs at least 4 more big screens there aswell as a few other improvements
-
I bet some guards made a years wage that weekend

Pyramid -
Elbow/Fleetwood Mac/Led Zep/Lady Gaga/Daft Punk/Kanye West
Other -
New Order/Bloc Party/Arcade Fire/Florence & the machine/ The Prodigy/The Black Keys
-
Bringing two of them four wheeled garden trolleys between our group, more food and disposable bbq (cba walking to stalls in morning for something to eat) oh and bring more rum.
also going to spend a fair few hours in the heading/green fields on Thursday day, and try to get a power nap in wednesday day so I last longer in the night
-
The Pizza gaff in the greenfields wa the only decent place I found all week
-
Sound was terrible unless you where within the inner of the speaker towers.
The place emptied out quite abit when Chase and Status came on, on Saturday, at least a quarter of the crowd where expecting Daft Punk haha.
Best was when we where leaving the stones nwar arcadia and some rah boy on the the phones going 'yahh where just waiting for Daft Punk, no one knows there on though'
-
If there far enough back, I've got no problem but not on even as far as half way from the pyramid.
early day time slots though no problems
-
We left one tent feom our group as the Zip had broken, helped ourselves to an abandoned one though...
All our rubbish etc is bin bagged over the week so our pitch was fairly clean
-
I got too bed Wednesday 3:30, Thursday 7, Friday 5, Saturday 6, Sunday 4:30, completely drug free. Don't see how people cant do it, on a normal night out I'm normally up to about 6 anyway
-
Camped in Oxylers didn't here of anyone near ud being robbed, but one fella close by waked up to a someones diarrhea all over his tents, or so I gathered from the crys and curses I heard him making Saturday morning
-
Irish fella out of IT Crowd, Bridesmaids with his girlfriend Sunday night absolutely off his barnet and twisted to fuck on Sunday night, throwing some crazy dance moves and facial expressions
-
Vaccines on the pyramid where shite.
Jake Bugg & Vampire Weekend as acts where completely unsuited for the size of the pyramid
-
Only came across two people during the entire festival causing any sort of trouble, neither of which happend to be from Liverpool. One girl looked horrified when I shouted after her that she'd dropped her jumper, some people must just be scarred of the accent...
You tend to find that the majority of 'scally scousers' at the festival arent even from Liverpool, but satellite towns like Kirby and Huyton, over emphasizing there accents.
Incredibly stupid and bigoted to even think that each area of the country doesn't bring their fare share of idiots to the festival though

Needs a proper place for people to chill/sit outside
