Went there last year with a band, the van got stuck in the mud in the way out and we had to be towed out by a tractor.
The stage got struck by lightning as well. So that delayed everything by nearly an hour.
In the upside, lots of good looking posh hippies to look at while walking roun the site ![:laughing: :laughing:](https://emoji.discourse-cdn.com/twitter/laughing.png?v=12)
Working (recycling team) and enjoying the blazing sunshine…
I went a couple of times before they got serious with the wall and security, and then last year was working putting in the container accommodation and taking it out again afterwards
I remember when I went the ticket was £8 for the weekend and there were 18,000 people there. I remember Hawkwind, Ginger Baker, can’t remember much else. ![:wink: :wink:](https://emoji.discourse-cdn.com/twitter/wink.png?v=12)

an aquaintance of mine got a job on recycling and was chuffed . we thought he would be walking behind my truck chucking the bio degradeable sacks in
unfortunately he ended up on the ■■■ conveyor belt picking used johnnies and tampax out the waste
even more unfortunately it was the only stinking hot year i ever went to.
how we all laughed !!!

ahh, yes, the compost line as it was called last year…
managed to avoid that one. Grading the rubbish is not that bad.
Im more of a budhafields kinds guy these days
In my yoof all the fun was breaking in .
Funny thing was all the millfield gurlz who never looked at you normally , all of a sudden couldnt wait to make ’ agricultural yoga’
Even more so when they found you had brought ’ special horticultural’ product
And to top it all kate moss smiled at me driving. In lorry one morning
Am I the only one who’d rather shove wasps up my arse than go to Glastonbury? I can go to work, drive about in mud look at people in muddy clothing and turn the radio on to listen to music. The difference being I get paid to do it not the other way around.

+2, wouldn’t go anywhere near Glasto’ this weekend, we volunteer at a local Music Festival ‘Togfest’ (this weekend) about 2000 people, nice & compact & sleeping in a Motorhome. [emoji3][emoji274]
Shove wasps up your arse V Go to Glastonbury= You’ll get stung either way.
Never been to a music festival in my life but this year have tickets for the Belladrum one near Inverness, not sure if looking forward to it or not, and not bloody cheap neither by a long shot. £340 for two adults and £85 for an electric hook up from Thursday pm to Sunday morn ![:frowning: :frowning:](https://emoji.discourse-cdn.com/twitter/frowning.png?v=12)
Been to several festivals in my younger, more resilient days, but as in most things they morph into corporate, profit driven, rip-off enterprises. This, to my antiquated, crumbling mind, makes the whole thing a bit of an ideological illusion. Ill bet a festival crud burger costs more than Wimbledon
s infamous strawberry (1) and cream.
There seems to be a new breed of wannabe bohemians wandering around these sites with a "look at me - im sooooo alternative" aura (before resuming their 9-5 estate agents
persona). Shirley Bassey and Tom Jones never struck me as headliner acts either, but then i cant profess to know what today
s “beautiful people” are switched on by!
Jo Wiley dusting off her once-a-year wellies - are you for real?
I (vaguely) remember striking up a friendship with a guy at Glasto who was running a magic mushroom tea stall - try getting a vendor`s licence for THAT these days!
Anybody been ?
Glad i didnt , its awful when its dry !
Muckaway , get a job man .
You wont get paid but get 4 meal tickets for oxfam tent and free camping
I never watch the mooosik as i get bored easily , but plenty of fun things todo .
Especially if you cross the railway line [wink]

Nope,id do just about anything rather than go to a music festival.
Even if Glastonbury is your thing,when they start booking “acts” like Kanye West,the balls burst as far as im concerned
was there for 2 yrs running mid 80’s, taking in and then taking out the scaffold fencing they used for security before the great wall went up.
stayed one year free food drink and all areas passes etc.
The guy who I dealt with was called Willy he was an OSV had a masters in Engineering and went all over Africa etc showing them how to fix tractors etc.
On the stage gate was Taffy he was a few planks short of a tree must have been all the Cough weed he was on ![:wink: :wink:](https://emoji.discourse-cdn.com/twitter/wink.png?v=12)
Good times good food God WOMEN
free love and all that
