Gnomicide Posted March 5, 2019 Report Share Posted March 5, 2019 (edited) The big question is, is the stall selling cigar tin guitars back? I want to promise myself one and then not actually buy one again. Edited March 5, 2019 by Gnomicide Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At last I can say "I've played Glastonbury" * Not actually an understatement, it was about 5 people. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
balti-pie Posted March 5, 2019 Report Share Posted March 5, 2019 My mate bought one, it’s pretty awesome actually. The stallholder wrote a really decent blog about working it in 2016 in the mud, it was a very decent read - I’ll see if I can find it somewhere Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mardy Posted March 5, 2019 Report Share Posted March 5, 2019 I've stood on the Pyramid Stage and bellowed 'Hello Glastonbury' To a field of mainly disinterested cows, whilst working after the festival in '93. But I could swear one or two of them moo'ed in response 2 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
balti-pie Posted March 5, 2019 Report Share Posted March 5, 2019 https://www.chickenbonejohn.com/blogs/news/glastonbury-2017 no mud tales, wrong year - but it’s still a decent read if you’re a bit of a glastobater like me 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funkyfairy! Posted March 5, 2019 Author Report Share Posted March 5, 2019 Rosa bloom is back for 2019.... not food but plenty of droolable sequin and sparkly garments for drooling over Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Display-Name Posted March 6, 2019 Report Share Posted March 6, 2019 There's a pie stall I can't remember the name of if anyone knows it? Sells pies. Pirate themed (I think), between West holts and Leftfield (I think), was on the left as walking from WH. Remember absolutely loving them.

Mrs Jass has played Glastonbury... she "played" a coat hanger onstage in the cabaret tent as part of a band made up of people hitting household items. It counts.

drunk pumpkin Posted March 6, 2019 Report Share Posted March 6, 2019 i performed on one of the outside circus stages. It consisted of me being smacked in the face by a mime artist with oversized boxing gloves (repeatedly) It certainly made my daughter laugh!

Do you mean the ones in the Bimble Inn? I've been told countless times that the best Bloody Marys are in the Park. I just wasn't sure if it was a mythical, dedicated stall or the ones from the Inn that have been spoken of. I can vouch for the ones at the inn and you can get a half a pint ale chaser at the same time! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If memory serves there's a big wooden shack and sells breakfasts and whatnot and it's a part of that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will check it out as I am always on the hunt for a breakfast bloody mary. The ones at the Cornish Arms were decent as well, if not pricey.

Just vaguely remembered the gun bit and mistook it for a skull and crossbones type thing in my head. Anyone know if they're still around? Perfect on a cold, muddy festival to warm spirits.
