Aye, heading down middle of Wednesday night to get there nice and early Thursday morning. My first Glastonbury, been a long time coming.
Fingers crossed for the weather. <*>
The start of a nice Summer of festivals I hope, heading down to Hopp Farm in Kent and Indie Tracks in Derbyshire.

Why go to Glastonbury when you could be at The Grapes in Sheffield on Thursday night? :eh?

I'm setting off Wednesday morning for my first ever Glastonbury. And the weather forecast is looking alarmingly dry, just a bit of drizzle on Saturday :shock:

Any highlights you're especially looking forward to?

Cheers

Not quite 52 summers! Just glad to have made it before the big 40. :wink:

Not trying to plan too much but will try to catch Edwyn Collins, Raconteurs, Bluetones, British Sea Power, Futureheads, Vampire Weekend and Elbow, hopefully with Richard.

Had a brief look at times etc. All depends on the weather, and where we end up camped.
I'm going with a veteran so I'm happy just to take it all in and see whatever band I end up around at the time.

I'll probably end up with shakin' stevens and jay-z with a bottle of whisky. :P

When are you heading down? We're hoping to get there 9am-ish Thursday.
I hope you have an enjoyable first one!

Hiya Richard,
Are you playing a secret set perchance; Or just being a punter for a change? If there's somewhere selling decent ale, we'd love to buy you a pint :D

Me mobile # is ************** *thinks...I wonder how many Hawley impersonators I'll get blagging beer :roll:

Regards

Michael & Jo

Hiya,
Thanks for that. Cracking wish list with much in common with ours. (pose alert) We saw British Sea Power in Austin @ SXSW & they were amazing, so they're a must see; So are Vampire weekend, been listening to their album for a few weeks now. It's great to see Mr Collins is well again :D I didn't know the Bluetones were playing :D I'll definately be watching Richard with Elbow 8)

If we end up with Shaky & Jay Z, I'll gladly join you in a few large ones!

We're leaving Hebden Bridge early Wednesday morning hopefully arrive Wednesday lunchtime / afternoon. I've left me mobile number. Give us a call / text if you fancy meeting up.

Cheers

Michael & Jo

PS I notice Mr H is playing with Elbow. I really should read posts before posting myself :oops:

I'll set up the TV on the back yard wall - crank the volume up to 11 - and wait for the Police to arrive...

Will probably take some time as many of my near nieghbours are deaf...

OK - I'll stay inside set the TV volume to 2 - and go to bed at 10.30 after my allocated bottle of Mackeson and a bag of cheddars [rock n roll] 8)
