CaledonianGonzo Posted June 12, 2020 Report Share Posted June 12, 2020 I'm going to miss the bands, especially so cos this years line up was the tits. Swigging straight rum in the Pymild pit during the Legend Slot, knowing that - just for an hour or so - you're right on the fulcrum on which entire world spins, the beating heart of human experience. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We all started chatting on a facebook group and then we met up on the Thursday (I think, it could have been the Wednesday) afternoon at Jazz World as it was then!

CaledonianGonzo Posted June 12, 2020 Report Share Posted June 12, 2020 Its not all good. Last year my brother accidentally trod on a baby and we all got threatened by a woman who's other half was - I kid you not - the same shape and size as the fucking Mountain off of Game of Thrones. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jay Pee Posted June 12, 2020 Report Share Posted June 12, 2020 Will never forget it nearly going off at Foals last year as a couple and small child with little kiddy waggon sprawled out on a rug reading broadsheet couldn't understand why folk who were in drink wanted to be able to stand where the rug was. They were forward of the PA at The Park. Surely even Glastonbury attendee's who are by and large an easy going bunch would understand the red lines. In a strange way, it was a very memorable moment of crowd will against a strangely stubborn sort. Ten minutes later there were beers flying through the air so I consider that a civic duty was performed.. Will miss the lolz of shit like that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obiginnaw Posted June 12, 2020 Report Share Posted June 12, 2020 it's always the little things i miss more, the bands are obviously great but I tend not to 'miss' them as much, i think i'm just content i was there to experience it, it's not a part I yearn to relive compared to seemingly minor things. but the little reggae van that went round the site last year blaring out will always stay with me, desperately trying to overcome the hangover by being in the nearest bar before 10am, the random conversations with strangers in queues and the buzz around the golden hour with the anticipation for the late night acts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay Pee Posted June 12, 2020 Report Share Posted June 12, 2020 Agree. I even miss packing. Just found this picture of last year's preparations in my pub shed. The Aldi Cognac into plastic is a defining moment. Taking extra care with weight of packing due to train there and back and a night in Glastonbury town on the Monday.

Avalon_Fields Posted June 12, 2020 Report Share Posted June 12, 2020 I’m going to miss having a few ciders (Outside of Glastonbury it has no appeal to me whatsoever). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tartan_Glasto Posted June 12, 2020 Report Share Posted June 12, 2020 Arriving and seeing your first sights of signposts etc, anything festival related. Also, the smell. I know that’s an odd one cause with the toilets etc it’s sometimes not the best but there’s something very specifically Glastonbury about it and it just makes me feel all happy.

stuartbert two hats Posted June 12, 2020 Report Share Posted June 12, 2020 Oh, and bumping into you lovely lot wandering around the festival. The regulars know who you are and for those I've not bumped into yet, that's the best bit, chatting with new friends in the best place on earth.
