Prodigy will be a better show, but yeah.. It will be my 4th time seeing them, and always wanted to see Blur since I was a kid. I think Ill be heading to Blur, but depends on what mood Im in tbh. To be honest, I end up missing 75% of the bands I decide I want to see anyhow.. Get too involved stumbling about mincing.
 
That is one ****ed up lineup! In a good way! Never seen such an eclectic mix, even for Glasto. Shame I'm not going. :(

Agreed.. its the best one for the last few years, for sure. I keep enjoying it more every time.. Cant wait. Ive gone with a big group every other year Ive been (only twice mind), and a girlfriend. This time I'm going with a couple of mates, and single, should mean it feels even more free and relaxed I hope.

Then I have a week back in civilisation and Im off to Serbia for Exit :D
 
Lots of nobodies led by few and far between has been "stars". You know stuff went off the rails when Cosby Stills and Nash is coming after Dizzy Rascal, which in return followed Spinal Tap, out of all possibilities. That is the kind of poster you would see as a "additional lol" in a background of a David Zucker comedy with Leslie Nielsen. You put something like this next to Rock Am Ring lienup and you start to wonder at what point did Britain become Sheerness of Europe.

Lady Gaga my ting tings for £160.. really.

You have no idea what Glastonbury is about, do you? Have you even ever been to a proper festival?

The lineup of Glastonbury is a side attraction. Not only that, but the 'nobodies' tend to be the best bit of the festival for a lot of people. You're more than welcome to the terrible pseudo-festivals - Rock AM, Reading, Download and all those other soulless money machines.
 
Haha, since when did Glastonbury become the kind of festival that would be competing directly with Rock AM Ring for musical tastes?
 
i shall be going, got my ticket just through post just the other day, but still need to sort travel out.

the lineup relaly is pretty incredible, even for glasto. shame its one year i want to see a good 30-40 of those acts and know i wont be able to :D
 
This is the reason I get put off from going to Glastonbury every year, the line-up is released late on, and I'm one for the music, nothing else, and that line-up does nothing for me at all.

I hope the people that do go enjoy it though.
 
Man there is about a 100 bands and I would only go to see Nick Cave & the bad seeds. :p Jazz area would summoning me though.

I just dont understand that.. Not saying you're wrong for it, but a good 90% of the enjoyment of a festival for me personally is mincing around meeting people, doing strange things I wouldnt normally, and having a laugh. The music is a very, very clear second.

Obviously that goes out the window for festivals like Reading/Leeds, Download, V, Rock AM etc. As they dont actually have the 'festival' side of things, just a star studded bill and a lot of angsty children.
 
Korn are playing at Exit in Serbia randomly as well, seems very out of place for them.. Still, Ill probably go and see them for some pubescent reminiscing.
