I don't think there is one of those (Glasters is more of a wild, jolly boys weekend away as the mrs is staying at home) so I shall be more ov a raving nutta for this

probable line-up here:



however,

This would be my (intended) itinerary 8) Though with a few beverages in me, i'd probably make a third of them.
 
I've got to get excited about this line up - first thoughts are :cry: because there's no Depeche Mode, Grace Jones or Orbital.

Grrr.

But then again, I'm usually oblivious to all the half ar$ed 'Scouting for girls' type stuff on the Pyramid anyway. :lol:

I was making a similar list in my head as I read through the line-up and it coincides with yours by about 90%.

Are you thinking of making the trip?
 
Initial thoughts is that it's all a bit, well, old men

Like young Robder, I shall be spending very little time at the Big stages anyways

However I shall be seeing


Bruce
The Tap
Fleet Foxes
Dizee Rascal
Tom Jones
Bjorn Again (presumably the first act on on the Pyramid)
Blur
Ray Davies
Eat Static (of course)

repeat after me:

Cant mate. Booked to go Ibiza end of june for a week, then go to a christening in Cornwall mid july, stag in Ibiza end august, Wedding in Cornwall and in Leeds mid september, then closings end of September. :eek: :spank: :lol:

And you :?:
No... don't think I could afford it in terms of time or money! :confused: I've got Venice & St Pete next month, the Balkans in July, probably Kazan (Russia) and maybe the Kazantip fest in Ukraine in August, and the US and Ibiza in September. I'll be lucky if I break even through the first nine months! :cry: :confused: :twisted:

Always wanted to go to Glastonbury... and Reading... growing up I'd always see my favorite bands playing there and be sad I didn't live in England :cry: :lol:
