Been twice and never seen a drop of rain. Apply for tickets every year but half-heartedly. It’s an amazing experience but I can think of better things to spend over a grand on.

That said this year’s lineup is the best it’s been for a while (if you discount the Foos, who weren’t even meant to be there)

I love the fact that the foo fighters must have driven past my road today. I love and hate this weekend. Non stop helicopters, but the rest of the local population have all moved to worthy farm. On the tv, (with my own nice clean toilet). Foo fighters and Carly Rae jepson (don’t judge me) have been amazing.

Never been, never wanted to go, never will go. I was put off festivals for life at 15yo (Knebworth '79), not because of the music (it was Zeppelin after all) but being in a sea of people, hot, uncomfortable, lack of facilities, etc. Not keen on outdoor shows generally tbh and wouldn't want to sit/stand through stuff I wasn't interested in.

This is true. But also best not tell them LG said he voted Green in 2019!

On the OP, I've never been. Kind of regret that - I was a part-indie kid in the 90s and there were a couple of years when loads of friends went (97/98 ish) and I know I'd have had a great time, but somehow figured it wasn't for me. Don't 'regret' it enough to go now though - I'll just be an armchair fan.

As for this year: Kelis, I love you.

Weyes Blood, what a great set. And she's surprising funny.

I’m only watching on the telly, but … The Chicks were really good this afternoon. Carly Rae Jepsen was a lot of fun. Leftfield were bangin’. The Manics were okay. I don’t feel like I’ve seen any standouts yet this year though.

Last year, I thought Self Esteem’s set was incredible. A real levelling up moment for her. And Per Shop Boys played a blinder.

I've been 4 times...last time was either 2003 or 2004...I find it very hard to watch on TV I go green with envy..

This year I've watched Manic Street Preachers, The Pretenders and Leftfield, may watch some more tonight. I'm currently listening to BBC Radio 6 and they're playing bands from the live sets. I'm hoping to get back to Glastonbury again

it is an amazing Festival...24 hours of entertainment...Love it!!

I’d like to go but not sure I could camp there. And if it was one of those wet rainy Glastonbury’s I would be miserable! I also need reliable access to a toilet.

So I think I’m best off watching it on the telly. Far from Saint’s are playing the Avalon stage at 6:20 tonight, I’d definitely go and watch them. And Elton. I want to see who his Special Guests are

Not my thing now worked there 1992 & 93 on the generators

It was smaller then now 62 stages takes 6 weeks to build and about 500,000 people in all cost £41 million to put on and only just brake even over a 4 year stretch with the off year.

We never used to go for the bands really , I would try and pick one gig an evening then dance tents through the night and just chill £”& recover in the day, there’s a lot more going on around the greenfields camp than gigs

"Dreadful festival. Full of loony lefties crying about climate change. Went Liam Gallagher at Knebworth last year. Now that was different class"

Liam Gallagher and class are two things that will never go together.

He's never made it past being 14. Of all the gigs i've done, his was right up there as one of the worst- from the complete inability to hit half of his notes or enunciate most of the lyrics in any intelligible form, to the knuckle dragging neandethals that revere him as some sort of god, as they neck the cheapest lager they can find in huge quantities, then spit, puke and piss on the floor wherever they're standing, before returning to bellowing boorishly at each other without any resemblance of toilet training or manners until its time to commence with the football thug posturing and inevitable ego driven fight.

The man is cretinous chav, who somehow discovered wealth, but never escaped being dragged up in the arse end of Manchester
