[Which Song/s Take You Back To Glastonbury?]

"Because the Night/The Pan Within" - Waterboys, 1986

"God's Comic" - Elvis Costello, balmy sunner's night in 1989

"This is the Sea/Ragman" - Deacon Blue, 1990 (plus the Cure on Saturday night, with the helicopter having to descend to take a girl to hospital who'd been crushed against the barriers at the front).

James opening with a Morrissey song in 1992 (they were a late minute replacement for the king of misery)

"Stagger Lee" - Nick Cave, 1998 (for it's gratuitously offensive lyrics on a Sunday afternoon!!)

"Let's Stay Together" - Al Green, 1999.

"Starman" - David Bowie in 2000

"Money" with the amazing "surround sound" effects - Roger Waters in 2002

"Hallejujah" - Leonard Cohen in 2008

For some reason don't seem to remember much from the mid-90s.

[Re visiting the Glastonbury site]

If you drive down Worthy Lane in Pilton you can get a good view of the Pyramid (if it's there). There's also Cockmill Lane that runs down the east side of the site which, I believe, has some good views.

However, if you're going to go wandering around the Festival site it would probably be courteous to let them know you're doing it, especially if it's later in the year -- if you drive down Worthy Lane you'll eventually get to the Farmhouse and the Festival Administrative Office beyond it (it's the building in front of you as you pass Worthy Farm on your right - drive past it and bear left for the entrance)... knock on the door and ask, they can only say no (!)... don't make the mistake of thinking the Farmhouse is the Office, it ain't... walking into Mike Eavis's kitchen is probably NOT a good way to get them onside, lol !!

Nothing ventured, as they say... :-)

This time of year, of course, the site will be still be teeming with people clearing up etc... I notice the fences have come down in the last few days and are now piled up alongside the A361.
