Maybe they've finally raised enough money to rebuild their canal, or whatever else they were raising cash for. They've been there since the 90s so it was a bit of a surprised to not see them this year. I missed that lack of decent cider being sold anywhere other than the Cider Bus. The Brothers' festival stuff is pretty crap but at least in 2019 you had Burrow Hill being sold at the Bimble Inn and the Thatchers craft cider bars around the site.

Pinhead Posted July 1, 2022 Report Share Posted July 1, 2022 (edited) Still curious as to what happed to the Steamboats stall. Maybe he just lost his pitch.... Found this about him from 2017 (scroll down a bit). https://normalforglastonbury.uk/fools-journey-to-glastonbury/ Edited July 1, 2022 by Pinhead Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lots of amazing DJs in general, but often someone like Mark Archer or Slipmatt delivers the most memorable and nostalgic early 90s set (for me at least). Is it just me or did there used to be more of this around, especially in the afternoons? Eats Everything did a History of Rave day at the Stonebridge Bar. Carl Cox did a B2B jungle set on Arcadia one night. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The truth is that Genosys went mouldy in storage over the last 3 years. It will either need to be remade or refurbished or it might never come back.

Did anyone go to the oak tree at the back of the Greenpeace field? This used to be my favourite quiet spot but the noise from the Spike bar ruined it. Hopefully it was quieter again. And was the book stall still there? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looked terrible, and strange given the aesthetic effort made across the site I noticed that too! Also, when was the Space Port last there? I missed it big time, I didn’t go in 2019 so not sure if it’s long gone, I think it was there in 2017 🤔 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm same as you - was there in 2017 and Spaceport was definitely there. I wasn't there in 2019. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
