Overwhelmed!

[James Bolivar]

The best way to cope with the sheer scale is to plan like fuck. Map out the distances between stages - allow plenty of time - and plan the optimum musical itinerary based on the Clashfinder; you may need to make hard decisions. If, at any point, you are down to meh! bands for a bit, then eschew the stages and race round the Greenfields; get the feel of the hippy stuff, but quickly. Look through the food thread and plan your meals too - don't limit yourself, you wan the full Glasto experience.

I would recommend doing all this on mushrooms - again, getting into it wholeheartedly.

Talk to people outside your group and be open to stuff that you come across.

My advice, just lurk around on here reading a bit of this and that you'll pick up bits of information that you'll find useful along the

time!

Bring a welcoming and accepting attitude, you'll fit right in

This thread has lit my excitement torch for the year. I am now finally accepting that we'll all be back there in just a few weeks, a little merry and all the better for it.

PM James Bolivar immediately and ask if he'd mind being your guide for the weekend. He's a crazy mo-fo but you will have the weekend of your life due to his unbounding joie de vive!

Your only challenge will be to keep up with his non stop dancing and merry making!

^This, abso-fucking-lutley this. Morsey knows that if I can't find a way to turn you on, then "you ain't got no switches". Bring your own shrooms though.

Actually scrub what I said. Jimmy B's gonna be busy being my party buddy all weekend. He may be available for a couple of hours on Saturday morning while I'm watching the rugby!

my first ever festival was Glastonbury 2007 at the age of 17, set me up for life that year, not looked back since, kick back and enjoy the goings on.i just have a constant smile when i am at Glastonbury worst thing about it is going home

[rexclark]

Just take your time and mark out about three acts you really want to see each day and take it from there. Glastonbury has so much to see and do it would be a waste to rush around and miss everything.

[frostypaw]

I can't contemplate how anyone could see it all in 5 days and actually experience any of it.

[carlhunt3r]

Please do come back to this thread after the festival to reassess your usage of the word 'overwhelmed' :-D

You will have an awesome time, it's easier than it might appear and certainly easier than many other festivals due to the extra freedoms so you'll be fine with your experience

[frostypaw]

Overwhelmed? MORE LIKE FUCKING LOVED IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!111!111!1
