Who's not going next year?


Woffy

Recommended Posts

If not, why not?

How do you feel about it?

How're you gonna cope?!!!

I'm going to be a Dad again at the of 2015 / start of 2016 and couldn't justify (to myself) leaving Mrs Woffy and a new Woffling.

But - faaaaaaackin' hell - its gonna be tough sat at home that week!!! For many, many reasons.

I'd say I'm unlikely at the moment.

I've applied for tickets for the Euros, if I get the ones I want I'd be away that weekend. If I don't get any I'll try for Glastonbury but even if I get through in October there'll be no guarantee. Personal circumstances could easily have changed - Mrs Jass and I have discussed the possibilty of having a baby Jass next summer.

I'm undecided as of yet. This year wasn't vintage for me and I'll be in my first year of teaching so I might just concentrate on that. 

 

Although I'll be living in Bristol so I shouldn't count it out fully. I'll be trying in October and then decide from there I think.

Won't you be teaching when it's on? I thought being a teacher meant it was ruled out.

I think the Woffys are so Glastonbury that the new Woffling will be born with wellies on and a can of cider in its hand. First words will be "fucking flags!".

50/50. Same reasons as above however there won't be a baby by that time so it may, err, just be that we won't be both going. So actually 50/50 for two of us, 90%+ for me especially as my group of friends has finally said next year is the year for all of us to go, after people living abroad etc for the last few years. I wouldn't go but I think she'll understand as this potential group is a one off that's been talked about for years probably before we all settle down - they aren't returnee types, they prefer holidays in the sun! Plus I think I'm the only one who will make time for Glastonbury when real life kicks in, whereas they'll feel they can't

I was considering taking a year off to concentrate my finances on achieving some long term goals, but my little sister (who I went to my first glastonbury with) is talking about going back for her 40th next year, so if that's the case it would be unmissable.

Been every year since 2004. Can't make it next year as good mate is having stag do same bloody weekend! Heading out to France to watch the Euros for it.

Will be absolutely distraught to miss Glastonbury for once as apart from the fallow years its what I do every June and enjoy the build up

Least i won't be in the country to watch it on TV gutted!

Ah bugger Woffy, this makes me feel even more ashamed that I saw you and didn't say hello. It was Sunday lunchtime and you were rushing out through CV  East and I was rushing in - neither of us looked in the mood to be delayed for chat that can be had on here.

 

Although, if Woffling arrives by the end of 2015 then he/she will be 6/7 months come Glasto time, and surely settled into a nice routine etc...

Only on the Weds and Thurs. I'm only half an hour away, so can get there about 4 on Friday. And planning on showing my face for a few hours on the Wednesday and Thursday afternoons as well.

Just read all these.

At work at the mo' so I'll respond to a few from Trap 2 later.

(Gutted I didn't see Brave Sir Robin though. More on this later.)

(I am already having a re-think RE: next year...)

Had thought that this year's debauchery was going to take so severe a toll on my physical health that surgery was the in the immediate post, but last night the doc had revised her opinion that I would need to be carved up, so it's looking a lot more positive than it was this time last week.

My wee brother is also talking about as his stag night, so that's another factor.

You know you want to re-think that Woffy.  I'm sure Mrs Woffy would prefer that to having you moping around the house watching it on telly and going on about how much you wish you were there.   You'd basically be doing her a favour; in fact, you'd be going solely for her benefit.  She should thank you.

    • Absolutely second this. Were great at Big Weekend and already have a great catalogue of songs forming so far. Would love to see them on the farm!
    • A mixed first day for us. First of all, we were honestly quite shocked that there was no security check at all at the VIP entrance around 7:30 PM. No bag check, nothing. I’ve attended Primavera many times over the years and this felt surprisingly lax for an event of this size. Did anyone else experience the same?   Another disappointment was the communication regarding the weather situation. Primavera has some of the best sound systems and speaker setups in the festival world, yet somehow they were not able to make a single clear announcement explaining what was happening. Instead, people were expected to read tiny messages on screens in Mordor while thousands were left wondering what was going on. A simple and direct audio announcement would have gone a long way.   On a lighter note, this guy absolutely made my day. Sitting right in front of the Estrella Damm terrace, wearing nothing but a long-sleeve shirt, jeans and a pair of Converse All Stars, he remained completely unbothered by the rain. While everyone else was looking for shelter, he sat there wearing sunglasses, calmly watching the crowd as if he was watching a movie.   Absolute main character energy!
    • I think my party got pretty lucky last night, at least compared to some of the horror stories over on Reddit. I was very impressed with Father John Misty in particular.   Perhaps my view would be different if I were a big Massive Attack fan or whatever, but right now my feeling is that if it's not safe for the shows to go ahead... then it's not safe for the shows to go ahead. I'd much rather they were cautious than roll the dice when it comes to something like that.    Here's hoping everyone has a better day today. 
    • It was awful during Father John Misty and I was close to the front. People just shouting and laughing their f-ing heads off about nothing in particular and being louder than the bloody stage.
    • Other things I noted yesterday, away from the obvious…   Positives: - an extra water point towards the back left of the main stages has appeared, which I believe is new for this year (and was much needed) - handing out free ponchos was a good touch  - caroline were fantastic. I’d never been in the Auditori Rockdelux before, it’s a wonderful venue and a great venue if you fancy a more chilled out environment  Negatives: - the talkers. I know it’s always bad here (and most festivals nowadays) but f**k me people wouldn’t shut up yesterday. I wonder if it was partly as a result of people being at artists they had little interest in (due to rain limiting their options), although it wasn’t great during blood orange. We’ll be making an effort to get a spot nearer the front for anyone we particularly care about over the weekend  - not enough staff around (and the ones that are there are largely useless). Most other festivals have them everywhere and are happy to help
