Avalon_Fields Posted March 29, 2021 Report Share Posted March 29, 2021 Surprisingly few, and it’s around 1 out of 5 bands seen each year: 2014 - 6 2015 - 4 2016 - 4 2017 - 7 2019 - 8 There’s maybe 2 or 3 each year that in retrospect I really wish I’d seen.

01seb Posted March 30, 2021 Report Share Posted March 30, 2021 2015 - 5 2017 - 12 2019 - 9 Probably reflects how strong each lineup has been for me. 2017 is by far my favourite lineup ever and 2015 was my least favourite lineup. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blutarsky Posted March 30, 2021 Report Share Posted March 30, 2021 2017 - 5 (plus standing around at West Holts for an hour waiting for Toots) This was my first time, so as someone else mentioned, it became very much about being amazed by the festival and trying to explore every area away from the main stages. 2019 - 3, Massively restricted by working 4x8 hour shifts Thursday to Sunday. 12 hours ago, Gnomicide said: I've not counted ones I caught the end of but I guess if you intended to see them it would count? It's very rare I plan on seeing half a set, can only think of 2 since I've been going. A few of mine are half sets, where artists clashed but they were playing close enough to each other that I could do a bit of both. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supernintendo Chalmers Posted March 30, 2021 Report Share Posted March 30, 2021 It's depressing looking through each one and seeing how much I missed. For someone who studies the poster in forensic detail, I have no idea how it happens. It's the beauty and tragedy of Glastonbury 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Losing my hair Posted March 30, 2021 Report Share Posted March 30, 2021 2017 - 7. Doesn't include hanging around waiting for Toots. 9 if I can include Elbow & Killers secret sets. 2019 - 7. Doesn't include hanging around waiting for Lauryn Hill before leaving 2 numbers in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John the Moth Posted March 30, 2021 Report Share Posted March 30, 2021 (edited) 2014 - 10 2015 - 13 2016 - 7 (mud) 2017 - 10 2019 - 7 (heat) Not including stroll-by’s but including unintended stopped-and-watched partial sets. Edit: also not including those listed as ‘special guests’ who I did end up seeing under a strict definition of ‘named on the poster’ otherwise I’d be including loads under the ‘100s more to be announced’ banner 😉 Edited March 30, 2021 by John the Moth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ian the worm Posted March 30, 2021 Report Share Posted March 30, 2021 3, 3, 5, 3, 6. Strangely, this is also the telephone number of an Islington flat where Arthur Dent went to a fancy dress party, and met a very nice young woman whom he totally blew it with 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
