Small pack wet wipes

Handy pack tissues

Hand sanitiser

Chewing Gum

Bottle of Water

Poncho/mac (dependent on weather)

Glastonbury guide & ticket (but this is usually around neck)

Shades (normally on head/face B) )

In the evenings the Camera is ditched, as my night pics always end up crap so I've stopped bothering, and I normally get rid of the water as well.

But I add:

Hat

Cotton Scarf

Torch

And also ditch the flip flops for warmer socks and converse, and grab a sweatshirt to cover my lovely brown shoulders after living in a vest all day :P

Amazing how many people say they will carry hand sanitizer! Given it's quite a recent concept it's amazingly popular!

Given we all survived without them before do people think it's essential or just a nice to have?

In 2009 i lugged my little rucksack around for my two fello companions, with everything from Toilet roll, beers, hand lotion et al. It was very heavy to start with , unitil the beers went of course but i ended up with a sweaty back, it was just very annoying. Last year i got one of the draw string jobbies from the Gaurdian paper stall which was a lot easier. If you where combats you can carry your sun glasses . money, camera etc in the pockets and other items such as a top for later and some beers or spirits in the and sling it around your shoulder. This is my intention this year.

I seem to cart more and more stuff around each year... But its all necessary. If I didnt have any of these I would probably have to trek aaaaaaaaall the way back to the tent...

Im thinking of investing in a new bag. A proper back pack type one. Only trouble is, Ill have everything we dont want getting nicked in my bag, and if my bag is on my back I cant help but wonder about pick pockets...

I'm a fan of the minimalist approach.

Money

Loo roll

Clashfinder

Guide around neck

Buffalo Special 6 Shirt around my waist

Cannot overstate how good Buffalo kit is. When it's wet it keeps you dry, when it's cold it keeps you warm, but when it's hot and wet you don't overheat.

Only downside is that you won't look good regardless of the conditions.

This year intend to carry a plastic bottle filled from my 5 litre box of Red Wine and maybe a cup

Chair (am old)

Drugs (Ibuprofen, am old with sad knees)

Worth carrying a chair as you can sit on it or put your stuff on it and don't end up with the bag on your back all day (am old)

Round neck, guide, lip salve and the little LED off my bicycle

On head, sunglasses

    • 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. 🙂
