Review from a first-timer

My first Glasto and I turn 24 next year - went to Reading last year and, although the bands were ace, the general atmosphere totally spoiled it on the Sunday, so I can safely say Glasto was nowt like Reading this year.

Have a read of my review here, and I hope enthusiasm from a first-timer makes everyone realise this fest is the BEES - I'm just jealous I haven't gotten to go the last few years.

My first was in 07 and I love love loved it! I figured if I could survive that amount of rain and mud anything else would be ok - the weathers gotten better ever since and each year has been amazing.

I've considered going into teaching but the thought of being unable to go to Glastonbury puts me right off - sorry kids! Cannot wait till 2011, so glad it's not the fallow year it was meant to be :D

P.S Love the review and the image of dancing with men in "tiger skin" underpants drinking mulled wine :P

Glad you had a great time. Would have been surprised if you hadn't as there's something for everyone at Glasto.

I've met about half a dozen people since Glasto who were also there and we've had the same "who did you see?" conversations and you'd think they'd all been to totally different festivals.

I don't think I saw any of the bands on your list but I had a superb time.

Thanks guys. It was a joy to write and, because I didn't get a press pass, I needn't have written anything - but I was so overwhelmed by it all that I felt I needed to write something down, if just for the sake of my own memories. Not all festivals have that impact. :lol:

    • The weekend in general has been amazing, but today was especially good.   The top three of Ice Nine Kills played, Bas Omens and Wntee Shakei, unsipable
