To my dismay I have today learned of my sons plans to attend the Glastonbury Festival next month.

Obviously I am extremely concerned about this - Patrick is only 27 years old and has never left Switzerland before. From what I understand this festival is attended by drunks, pickpockets and even people from the country of Wales.

Would someone please be able to give me some reassurance regarding his safety?

With thanks and good day to you all.

The festival is not atall infested with drunks, pickpockets, and people from Wales. Seriously. At 27 years of age your son will be fine at this festival.

But I don't get it when you said "and even people from Wales". I am not from Wales myself, but what exactly is wrong with people from Wales??? Do you think Welsh people pose some threat to your son???

I understand our new government is passing a law decreeing that all welsh should carry a bell, in order that real people can cross the road to avoid the smell of gravy.

You have to understand that glastonbury is a very open, forgiving, friendly environment. It is tolerated that people are openly welsh at the festival, with little judgement from others compared to other society. Even the usually fetid smell of gravy is hidden, thankfully, by the overriding odour of human excrement and poppers.

If your son is approached by a welshman, tell him to fend them off with threats of "a hard days work" or "paying your council tax", they'll soon scurry off to the pub.

apologies for any offense, the gravy thing is just randomness

    • Gojira are unoficially confirmed by the organisation at Hellfest since last December already.   Slayer was supposed to be this year as a Mainstage 2 headliner at the place of Volbeat for a thrash day but negotiations fell off. Very likely to be there next year.    MCR I didn't know about but it fits well with Hellfest's desire to keep one day as more punk/rock orientated.    Europe are a confirmed headliner for Sweden Rock 2027. They will not headline HF but we may seem them on the bill. I am very curious who will be the legacy bands next year at HF. There was some backlash after 2025 and a bit of a return to heavier metal on the bill in 2026 - e.g. Gatekeeper on the main stage. The only considerable legacy acts I see coming (if they are in Europe) and haven't been at HF for a while are Def Leppard, Motley Crue, Slash, FFDP (if you count them as legacy), ZZ Top, and Lynyrd Skynyrd. I really hope they manage to pull sth big for the 20th anniversary like AC/DC.
    • Looking forward to Doja Cat letting us all know what is going on later on today. It is a good job that somebody is keeping us informed.
    • They've got a few gigs in Dec/Jan.  Hoping to pick up a couple of tickets for Margate later today
