Glastonbury 2016 Chat

Sinny · 5 Nov 2015 at 21:51

I've not seen a topic for this yet so thought I'd get one going!

Managed to nab a ticket for next year even though I didn't manage to get one for this year.

I had my PC/Laptop/Phone etc open and my mate manages to get them on his iPhone on 3G :rolleyes:

Who does everyone think will be there?

Personally hoping for Radiohead, Grimes, Elton John.

Napalm Death, Pig Destroyer, Carcass, Deicide and **** ****

You forgot The Berzerker, Nile, Cephalic Carnage and Mushroom Head.

Possibly Red Hot Chili Peppers. Been confirmed they're headlining quite a few festivals around Europe next year so who knows.

No Glasto chat? Who's going, what you looking forward to?

I'm going but haven't had much chance to get excited yet. Looking forward to the Correspondents as ever. Hopefully will find some nice DnB. Will research who's playing later. Missed last year with no ticket.

Sit in your canoe in your living room by the sounds of it so far.

Chaos this morning apparently and they have warned people that have not set off already not to travel , suddenly refreshing the browser in vain for 45 minutes last autumn seems the prefered option

Regy53 · 22 Jun 2016 at 20:19

the fields are wrecked already. I cant see any joy in doing something like this

There was a video on the news of someone pitching a tent one with built in bottom they then took a run dived in and it shot along the mud with them in it.

And this is why if I were to ever go to Glastonbury my tent would be one of these

stuck in a field with a load of student ******s, covered in mud, **** and **** and having to listen to some **** band on a par with the wurzels?

if hell had a concert night, it would be glastonbury

Mingling with that many millennials would be absolute hell to me. This sort of thing definitely doesn't feature in my bucket list.

I do find some of the young a bit earnest and pretentious. Just get loaded, enjoy it and stop thinking about whether your outfit is wacky enough youngfolk.

It's no bucket list thing for me but I always enjoy it. Can't go until tomorrow though

Sitting at home in the dry listening to and very much enjoying Jeff Lynnes ELO, fabulous.
Am I showing my age? :-)

Andi.

One of those bands I just dont get the popularity of, ok first couple of albums then zzzzzzz

Skidder · 30 Jun 2016 at 08:23

I didn't watch them at glastonbury but saw them a week or so ago in London. Good show and they seem like (too) nice chaps but they're not my bag.
