Don't know if anyone knows this, but when they I'd the wristband thing in 2016, who was it who gave out the wristbands? Did Glastonbury allocate more volunteer places to people specifically to hand them out? Pretty cushty job. -

I'm not going to rank them all, but 2009 was definitely a standout! -
1. 2016 - despite the weather, beautiful group of friends assembled with the perfect dynamic. M83 on John Peel band highlight. 2. 2010 - incredible weather, Stevie Wonder, Faithless, Arcadia still in the SE Corner, dancing til dawn at Projections in Shangri-La. Thom Yorke & Johnny Greenwood acoustic surprise set on the Park. This would be top if it wasn't for the crowd I was with in 2016. 3. 2014 - hit this one very hard. Arcade Fire remain the best Glasto headliner I've ever seen. Jamie XX b2b Four Tet (I think) playing Sweet Like Chocolate at Beat Hotel at 2am. TEED on Arcadia while I was dressed as a dinosaur. First time down the Rabbit Hole to find a secret Fatboy Slim DJ set. 4. 2015 - 30+ group of us. Saturday afternoon Young Fathers on Other in the sun was brilliant. 5. 2009 - Blur, obv. Passed out drunk on the Thurs and when I woke up Michael Jackson had died and I thought I'd slept through the whole festival. Pretty sure this is also the year we saw Fatboy Slim play in a giant pinball machine. 6. 2022 - Four Tet on the Park, Bonobo on West Holts, Bicep on West Holts. First year working; v different vibe to going with the group but made new worker friends. 7. 2008 - kind of feel like my first should be ranked higher but I spent a lot of time running around chasing bands and didn't nearly make the most of the late night stuff. Had to leave on the Sun morning as was starting a new job on the Monday. 8. 2017 - enjoyed Foo Fighters and Radiohead but was quite serotonin depleted and didn't make the most of it. 9. 2023 - an entirely forgettable year for me really. Was totally burnt out from work when I arrived and spent most of the festival knackered, resentful that I also had to work at Glastonbury. Controversially I enjoyed Arctic Monkeys though. This year is my first year properly flying solo. Although I have my worker pals to camp with, we have wildly varying tastes so I expect to spend a lot of time alone. Interested to see how I find it... My best years have tended to coincide with good friends being there, but the E&D line-up looks so so good I'm hoping I won't care too much.

I know they have decent drainage but it is a little worrying. Personally, I don't mind what happens weather-wise as long as the entry and exit is dry. Those car parks can be a nightmare!
