Another T shirt man

I take 7 t shirts, 1 for travelling there and setting up, 1 for each day and 1 for travelling home.

Travelling there will be a Rolling Stone (the mag) T shirt, travelling back will be a Jack Daniels T shirt.

For the festival ;

Chris Cornell (Higher Truth Tour 16)
Modest Mouse (Dead before the ship sank 07)
King Giz (Masters of the Universe 14)
Eat Static (Abduction 93)

Last one is a choice between - Nick Cave, Glastonbury (2003) or if it arrives in time it will be the new King Giz Nanagon Infinity.

Almost forgot I'm off to see Neil Young + Promise of the Real in a couple weeks so might have his Monsanto Years T to consider also.

One of the more difficult decisions of the festival.

Current favourite ;

@The_Amazing_Oblong That Gizzard/Skeletor t-shirt is great, I nearly bought that myself.

I have a couple of band tees that may come along but in general I agree with @stuartbert two hats - Glastonbury is a place apart from 'real life' and you can wear things you wouldn't normally get away with.

Also, silly slogan t-shirts - if done right, not like those pictured above - make me smile.

I'd like clarification on the "rule" please Ben..

I wore my very old  Spacemen 3 tee shirt to watch Spiritualised last year..  and also a "Keith" tee shirt to watch the who..

 

Please confirm if that was ok..

 

and also, more importantly.. will it be frowned upon if I wear my old 70's style ST Etienne top when I watch them this year?

Ah, congo. Many thanks for your question.

I am delighted to confirm that not only were these sartorial decisions entirely acceptable, one might argue, certainly with the former, that you displayed an admirable dash of taps-the-side-of-his-nose been there for the long haul credibility.

As such, I'll even forgive you your failure correctly to refer to the magnificent Spiritualized®.

Very well done.

Working on the recycling crew I tend to have a change of clothes for every day as can get pretty mucky/sweaty doing the work and will be there before gates open so need a few more t-shirts

Initial thoughts are:

  • Some old battered ones for work
  • Past Glastonbury t-shirts
  • Beautiful Days
  • Croissant Neuf Summer Party
  • Wedding Present
  • Pixies
  • Belle & Sebastian
  • Carter USM
  • Primal Scream
  • Depeche Mode
  • Space Ibiza
  • Back to Basics

The last one will probably be the only day specific one for when they are doing the Glade takeover on the Thursday

Majority of my t-shirts that I take aren't always band t shirts so I'll spare the details!

I do however like to announce a squad of around 16 in the initial long list and gradually cut this down over the coming weeks letting them down gently until releasing the final roster on the Tuesday of Glasto week.

This isn't just for t-shirts and apllies to jackets and jumpers also! Incredibly sad but keeps me sane during the build up.

    • Tonight was a disgrace. There wasn't *that* much rain, and it wasn’t *that* windy. A festival of this size should be able to withstand some adverse weather without it bringing the whole circus to a standstill. And if it is true that part of a speaker on the Revolut stage fell…   As for the communication - announcing Massive Attack were playing at 12:30 and then nothing for over an hour while people waited in the rain. It’s laughable it really is.   If I said I’ll never come back again I’d be lying. The shambles of Barcelona 2022 and the disgrace of Madrid 2023 didn’t stop me, so this probably won’t either.   This festival gets so much wrong, but it is always saved by having such killer line-ups. It’s just a shame it treats the fans/customers/consumers like animals. Compare it to somewhere like Glastonbury and it’s worlds apart.
    • Yeah, I admit that a small part of me felt relieved when they announced that MA are canceled.. But on the positive side- got to see Florence Road afterall, and they were great
    • Glad I could take the €3 bus to Playa Catalunya! Hope y'all warm and dry up.
