Taking a virgin...

You sure your marriage is strong enough? Seriously, after five days you'll want to kill her!

Not this year ;)

I have done it before tho, always fun seeing them gawp in amazement at everything.

Best thing is to take them on a tour of the site on Wednesday or Thursday, ending at the stone circle - take them right to the top, but don't let them turn around until you reach the fence - then watch them smile :)

We were Virgins last year and whilst it was nice to go with people who had been before. I cannot help but feel that I just wanted to experience the place for myself. Sure, it was great seeing the stuff on the Wednesday night and hearing how great everything is, but more than being told I wanted to experience it! Trouble when going is a group is too much compromise...unless you define clear boundaries beforehand. Meeting up when you feel like it and not giving two hoots if you dont make it etc.

Plus it didnt help that it was like being on a package holiday with every single point being referenced and not once did we walk to the back of the stone circle instead we faffed about for most of the night whilst everyone else seemed to be having a good time. Oh well. Everything we didnt do last year, we'r doing this year. Cannot wait!

Nah, the other way around.

She fully expects me to wander off on my own a lot. It's one of the things I love doing at Glastonbury. You can't beat a good mooch around.

I took two last year and am taking one this year - I'm excited!

I have also persuaded another friend to come with me - she came to my first one when we were twelve but she hasnt been since - think it will be a VERY diferent experience for her!

We're taking 2 virgins this year. Did the whole 'take them to the stone circle and don't let them turn arround until the to' thing with a couple of virgins last year and their faces were a picture. I'll be doing it again this year

My fiancee's first year! It could go either way to be honest, can't be as bad as last time though, when I decided to leave her at home and went with a mate instead :blink: she almost removed my left testicle for that one!

    • Primavera refunding day tickets which are probably a negligible percentage of attendees yesterday.
    • Thursday day tickets being refunded. Fair play.
    • I’ve had a good sleep and I feel weirdly zen about the whole thing.   My first Primavera, so not the greatest first impression. I guess today couldn’t be any worse, right?   Thoroughly enjoyed Men I Trust and Geese. Cupra is a beautiful stage and the crowd seemed fun, friendly and engaged.   I think it probably could have gone even worse, considering how dangerous the crowding felt at times.   Anyway, we go again.
    • Brighton centre is a weird old venue for the Mary Wallopers - a great band, a really good live spectacle, and its a saturday night as well which sets it all up - but its at the bloody Centre? a charmless nonsense of a conference centre? Brighton dome is a ten min walk away and is so much nicer a place to see bands its ridiculous!    ah well, i'll probably mosy along anyways . . . 
    • So bad honestly. I get that bad weather happens but their communication was non existent. When you're managing crowds of tens of thousands of people, it's just not good enough. I left when Massive Attack was cancelled (the first time) and it genuinely did feel unsafe trying to get out. No one knew what was going on, people still sitting in the ground when there were hoards of people trying to leave, no crowd management at all...   I've been to PS enough times to know sometimes you need to just roll with it but this was way worse than "the bar queue was 30 minutes long".    Today will be better but still feel super disappointed.
