I've had gems like "So do you take your own food or eat at the burger vans?" and "Well I'm a bit disappointed by Kanye, but I suppose there'll be another stage with something else on".

alexwetherell Posted April 2, 2015 Report Share Posted April 2, 2015 I'm taking my girlfriend for the first time and another guy in our group hasn't been before. Can't wait to see their reaction when we're sat at top of hill on CV east on Tuesday night with a cider overlooking the fantastic view of the site Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ForgotBloodyUsername Posted April 2, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 2, 2015 Yep I plan on marching them up the hill by The Park! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dora Posted April 2, 2015 Report Share Posted April 2, 2015 Took 5 newbies last year, they're coming again this year. This year we're taking another 4 newbies plus our kids. Think we'll have 20 of us going this year in total. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bignews Posted April 2, 2015 Report Share Posted April 2, 2015 In 2013 I took a group of friends for the first time, they were baffled by the scale, last year I took some different friends and my family and they absolutely adored the place! I love showing people around, taking them above the park etc, one of my favourite things to do! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

theboytaff Posted April 2, 2015 Report Share Posted April 2, 2015 I've managed to have at least 1 newbie with me every year since 2007. Always one of the highlights of the week sharing their first experiences. Only 1 newbie this year. But can't wait to see her face when she get's up the stone circle for the first time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gmb1992 Posted April 2, 2015 Report Share Posted April 2, 2015 Taking 2 of my aunties with me this year, they are in their 40's & 50's and it was a bit of a bucket list thing. Cannot wait to walk them up the hill by the park and have a few drinks... in the sunshine obviously Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
srb Posted April 2, 2015 Report Share Posted April 2, 2015 Have a few newbies with us this year. One is terrified at the prospect of going on the lash for five days in a row, one is only going because he feels left out and another will probably not leave. An interesting Wednesday night beckons Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pinhead Posted April 2, 2015 Report Share Posted April 2, 2015 We were all noobs once. Tbh I'd love to go back to that first experience of the festival - just not at my current age..! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pie_and_a_pint Posted April 2, 2015 Report Share Posted April 2, 2015 I'm actually jealous of newbies. Glastonbury is always massively exciting, but the first one is so out of this world! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
surreysupermum Posted April 2, 2015 Report Share Posted April 2, 2015 yep taking 3 - the 'kids' (27, 24 and 17) I've already had their Tshirts made up for them. 'Glastonbury Virgin 2015' on the front and their names on the back so if you see them call out to them and say Hi! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Badlands Posted April 2, 2015 Report Share Posted April 2, 2015 I've managed to have at least 1 newbie with me every year since 2007. Always one of the highlights of the week sharing their first experiences. Only 1 newbie this year. But can't wait to see her face when she get's up the stone circle for the first time She bang into her NOS is she? Awful the stone circle nowadays. Much prefer the Park. My brother is supposed to be coming though that's in doubt. Be a shame as its great seeing a newby realising how utterly massive the place is Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pinhead Posted April 2, 2015 Report Share Posted April 2, 2015 A little bird tells me that the new site manager is apparently going to really crack down on NOS usage around the site this year. Don't know how exactly - presumably get security to have a moan at them or something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mouseboy11 Posted April 2, 2015 Report Share Posted April 2, 2015 I was a newbie last year and now I'll be dragging along 4 more this year, can't wait to see their reactions Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomViolence Posted April 2, 2015 Report Share Posted April 2, 2015 2 of us are on our 2nd year but we've acquired 4 newbies. 2 have only been to Reading and 2 have never been to a festival! Can't wait to see their faces Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
morph100 Posted April 2, 2015 Report Share Posted April 2, 2015 Only got one this year, love their little excited faces and how lost and overwhelmed they get. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt42 Posted April 2, 2015 Report Share Posted April 2, 2015 I'm the only one in my group this year that has been before! I'm going with a sea of newbies! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomjoll Posted April 2, 2015 Report Share Posted April 2, 2015 Yep I plan on marching them up the hill by The Park! I'm going with a mate this year who is going for the first time. I'd love to be able to see the view from the top of the park again for the first time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Glasto Posted April 2, 2015 Report Share Posted April 2, 2015 I'll hopefully be going with a couple of newbies, but it all depends on them getting tickets in the resale.... It's going to blow their minds!!!! (Well at least I hope so after the amount I've banged on about the festival to them over the years!).

The Placid Casual Posted April 2, 2015 Report Share Posted April 2, 2015 I'm going with my brother who's a first timer this year. He hasn't even been to a festival before, so he's unbelievably excited. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alibobbin Posted April 2, 2015 Report Share Posted April 2, 2015 Taking my mate who goes to loads and loads of festivals and loves them but never done Glasto. Cannot wait for her to see the place, as I know she'll appreciate it and don't think she has any idea how amazing it is (despite my daily updates about it) Plus, we've secured a Tipi so she'll get the ultimate experience!
