I was surprised at how many people from here I had seen/met 'in real life' that did not look at all how I had imagined they would look. Funkyfairy and I had this conversation when we met at the efests 2nd world cup.

couple of my surpises were...

Neil...thought he would be skinny with olive skin

llcoolphil...thought he would be blondish

Lots more...but can't remeber the names. :rolleyes:

Discriptions, wrong or right from anyone else?

ps...wanted to see what 'Langsdale wolf' looked like but never caught up with him, I have a def pic in mind of what he 'should' look like :)

Ace post Ms Pilton. :D

It does happen doesn't it? Tbh, Funkyfairy was even more lovelier than I imagined.

But despite having met loads of Efests lovelies over the years, I didn't barely recognise or know most of the players in the footy teams.

I met someone who posts on here sat around a camp fire in the green fields about five one morning,he told me his username and i can remember thinking he didn't look like the picture i had in my minds eye of him. Turned out to be one of the nicest people i met all festival.From what i can remember his wife had bought him a ticket for his 40th birthday present and he was stopping in the campervan fields.

I'd already seen a pic of Lucy, which turned out very handy as it gave me somebody to head too!

And thanks for the sticker :P

Met a few, although not many as had to head off over to other side of the site for 8ish, but everyone was just lovely!

Obviously nobody looked a bit like I'd expected, but there weren't any huge shocks :lol:

Peace x

I don't think that I will every have such a big shock as I did in 2008, when I met Pezzypops and then spent the rest of a very drunken cider bus meet telling him that I couldn't believe he was a boy!! Was convince pre-Glasto 2008 that he was a girl!! Poor pezzy!! :lol::D

Well Pogo looked just like his photo which I had seen on here somewhere, which was handy, coz I couldn't initially see a flag or anything at the meet. Hope I didn't bend your ear too much on the Friday mate (or anyone elses for that matter). I too am generally hopeless with names and faces. Add pseudonyms and avatars to the mix and I am well b*gg*r*d.

I was there for a bit on the Wednesday night.

I'm about 6'2", really well built, tremendously good looking and normally followed around by a long line of beautiful women.

Did you see all the females around the site wearing bikinis? Well that wasn't just because of the heat. They were trying to show off to me.

If I'm honest, it was a pain trying to get a beer with them all buzzing around me.

We didnt make the Wednesday night as we had the Children.

That must be so hard trying to get a beer when all the beautiful woman in Bikinis keep pawing at you, next time get one of them to get you one, poor you, I feel your pain :ph34r:

aye sometimes i've got a totally different image of what someone looks like and it's dead weird when they look different.. it feels like they've conned me in some way :lol:

Sorry again for the way I greeted you at the Cider Bus :lol:

I love the putting faces to names bit. Apologies to those I met, thinking it's for the first time only to be told we've met more than once before! And as always it's fun to catch up with old friends. :D

    • Not necessarily but it should be, Download have a habit of messing it uo when others get the bookings on point. Good Charlotte I doubt are playing 3rd down and that too 3 that day while dreamy is too strong. I think you'd have one another day to help sell weekend tickets. I also doubt Papa Roach play. 
    • Here's a bit of a wild stab, few placings may be off, and for all I know half of these won't actually be touring next year, but screw it, it's a bit of fun   Pyramid: Sabrina Carpenter, Phoebe Bridgers, TBA (Florence + The Machine), Garbage, The Last Dinner Party, Interpol, Alex James Britpop Classical Other: Chase & Status, Teddy Swims, Clairo, The Kooks, Zara Larsson, Kingfishr, Sports Team, Orbital West Holts: Robyn, Baby Keem, De La Soul, Deltron 3030, JID, Dua Saleh, kwn, Daniela Latila Woodsies: Bonobo, Darkside, TBA (Tame Impala), Laufey, Warmduscher, Wednesday, The Lottery Winners, The Royston Club, Florence Road Park: Patti Smith, Super Furry Animals, Slayyyter, The Cardigans, Skye Newman, Kelly Lee Owens, Teen Jesus & The Jean Teasers   Pyramid: Harry Styles, The xx, Richard Ashcroft, The Pogues, Jessie J, Sigrid, Travis Other: Rosalia, Sombr, Mitski, Alex Warren, Holly Humberstone, Cat Burns, Pale Waves, Yard Act West Holts: Basement Jaxx, Elyanna, Clipse, L’Imperatrice, Nation of Language, Jim Legxacy, Yazmin Lacey, RIP Magic Woodsies: Suede, Chvrches, Bleachers, MUNA, The Cribs, Keo, Bleech 9:3, The Lilacs Park: MARINA, Magdalena Bay, Jacob Alon, TBA (Lily Allen performs West End Girl), Getdown Services, Isaac Wood, Snail Mail, Madra Salach Pyramid: Sam Fender, Hozier, David Byrne, Cher, Obongjayar, David Gray, Billy Ocean Other: Doja Cat, Deftones, Addison Rae, Ren, Viagra Boys, Maisie Peters, The Reytons, Hard Life West Holts: Kano, Thievery Corporation, Angine De Poitrine, Thee Sacred Souls, Brooke Combe, Sasha Keable, Master Peace Woodsies: The Wombats, Metronomy, Geese*, Dry Cleaning, EsDeeKid, Sienna Spiro, Cowboy Hunters, Radio Free Alice Park: Big Thief, Laura Marling, MJ Lenderman, Richard Dawson, Oklou, Maruja, Dead Dads Club, Ratboys   *There's always one band booked for Woodsies that ends up being massively under-billed and gets shut down really early. They'd be better off playing somewhere like Other sub, but I could see the G getting them to play a smaller stage while it's still possible
    • Another Kraftwerk one for me today, as just back from seeing them.    
    • Completed my 2026 survey. Put down Super Furry Animals as my most wanted for next year but suspect the moment has gone for that. Popped a big shopping list in the box for who else you would like to see. 🙂
