No longer a Glastovirgin?

Wow! My first Glastonbury was amazing! I went with a great bunch of people, 2 of which were also Glasto virgins.

I previously put a thread on here asking what all the fuss was about and now I totally understand! I found the green field area the most interesting part. There was so many random things to see and do there and I loved it. I especially loved the healing field.

The Tiny Tea was a highlight for me and having a solar powered shower was a great experience. I thought that it was a bit too hot though and at some points I felt like I couldn't take anymore! You're got to love the Glastonbury water! The heat meant that I didn't see some bands because I couldn't bare it. I stayed at my tent at some points because there was no shade at the stages..

My twin sister (who goes to Glastonbury nearly every year) tried to explain to me what Glasto is like but I didn't believe her. I can now safely say that I know what she was talking about. It's a little world inside the big world.

Thank you Glastonbury for such an amazing experience :-)

I may now be hooked...

My first one and it was long overdue.

Plenty of friends have been before, and they'd been telling me constantly how special it is, and that it is life-changing.

I now know why Glastonbury means so much to so many people, because I am now one of those people. I was completely blown away by the whole experience, I felt wave after wave of euphoria washing over me. The first time I've been to a music festival and not felt the need to get rat-arsed. I simply didn't need to at Glasto. The high from being there alone is impossible to create artificially.

I'll never miss another one if I can help it.

My girlfriends first, and my first for 15 years! It felt like my first time too. :) I've always missed out in recent years due to not being in the country at the time with my job but because it was the 40th and everything this year I made a point of being there. (even turned down 2 contracts to make it)

The love is well and truly rekindled and I'll definately be turning down work to be there next yeat too!

    • I guess we'll just have to wait until videos of the shows go up, but the fact that the standing is also greyed out still suggests to me that those sections just sold out out before the others and a blue block just be like 3 tickets left, it's still not concrete proof they never went on sale and if they were never on sale why would they not make it even, if 414 wasn't on sale then you'd think 409 wouldn't be either   
    • Selfish, but I've done the 2 days I'm there.. i'll try to do the rest through the day but might get beaten to it as it's editable....    https://clashfinder.com/s/ape2026/
    • I don’t think the festival automatically ‘need’ to have a female headliner if you have strong female headliners on the Other Stage (which I reckon will be Rosalia and Phoebe Bridgers), perhaps a female legend (praying for Annie, will take Cher), and a few female/mix gendered subs on the Pyramid (maybe London Grammar, The xx). From what I’ve seen of Sabrina, her team prioritises the pay day and I think she will be doing Wembley over Glasto weekend.   One thing I’ve noticed is a lot of the suggestions would be first time headliners and I can’t work out when the last time was that the festival had three artists top the bill that hadn’t topped it before? It seems to be something they like to do to make sure they have a ‘safe’ headliner that will land well with the masses. Plenty of names in that hat that could step back up next summer and should/could be about: Billie Eilish, Adele, Foo Fighters, The Cure, Radiohead, U2…hell, if Beyoncé is really planning to release a ‘rock n roll’ album to complete her Renaissance trilogy, Glastonbury would be a great place to ‘kick off’ that campaign for her.   And there’s always the Rihanna rumour. Her husband (I think) said this week she’s in the studio.
    • And all (or all but one) of the secret sets repeats though?
    • 1. Coming with my sister (our 4th Sziget together) 2. 3 days (Thursday-Saturday). Would rather do Tuesday-Thursday but not enough AL 😞 3. Wednesday evening  4. Apartment  5. FATM (will be my 10th Florence’s gig) 6. Parcels/Paris Paloma
