Generaly i enjoyed the internal campsite more than the festival. I've seen it all there mate, things to make your toes curl and your hair go grey. Tunnels, ropeladders, naked 60 yearold hippy couples jumping up out of the long grass shouting give me lsd.

That festival is a picture of humanity at its best and worst at the same time.

My upcoming gig is English dogs supported by dogsflesh and opening the show are the drunken granny bashers. Really its just an excuse for excessive drinking.

I'm getting far too old for jumping the 3meter glastonbury fence.


Haha - Bill Bailey had a very funny story about Glastonbury: some fellas had tunnelled under the fence and put a little two man tent over the hole where it came up. Bill said he saw someone far gone on "substances" watching as dozens of hippies emerged from that tiny tent. He says the guy kept looking at the tent, then at the splif in his hand - and scratching his head in confusion...

:lol: - C


That's brilliant :lol:

Started your gigging in style then Gratz. :D
Man what an audience. I remember the nerves i suffered before my first gig, to a load of drunks in a club. You must of been 100 times worse with such a notable audience.

it is a confidence boost isnt it. Now next time you'll think, 'no sweat i've played infront of people with a ear for guitar'.

Well done that fellow.

Wow - congratulations, Gratz! You have surpassed my entire (very un-illustrious) gigging career with your first show! 8)

Well done, man! Now: onward and upward!

Cheers - C
