Well I missed out on tickets first time around, despite trying very hard indeed! Maybe I'll have more luck when the next lot go on sale. Then maybe I'll see you there.

Glad to see this thread...I've started my planning, me and Mrs Mouse are driving down on the wednesday, meeting friends at the site, a few days wandering around the vastness which is Glastonbury then Saturday and the greatest rock and roll band will grace the best stage on the planet. I shall be suitably loaded and ready to watch the band I've followed since I was 10 for what will be most likely my last time. Hoping to to say Hi to any IORR's who are also going. I've got my Keith at Sands Point limited edition T-shirt ready for the show and all I need now is the sun!

I think you are one of the very few lucky people on IORR to be definately going to the whole festival.
If I were 30 years younger I would be there too if I got lucky with tickets. ><

Plan ? Eh ? What's to plan ?
The only event worth planning for is the ceremonial destruction of every tent in the land (I suggest death by fire), plus the introduction of a new law banning rainfall during Rolling Stones concerts.

Got to admit, I hate camping, loathe it...it's ok at night sat around the fire with a spliff and a drink but morning - yuk. Damp, cold, clothes all over the place. I just about get through the 5 days with the help of going back to the car most days to freshen up and have a decent sit down in a civilised environment. Hopefully it will be worth it.

If you're going to Glastonbury, this is the kind of eventuality you have to plan for!
OK Crumbling Mice, I'm just teasing...been there loads of times myself, and though I'm a year younger than you, not sure if I would go again. Never say never though, I certainly miss the atmosphere. It comes over a bit on TV, but no substitute for being there.
I'm sure you'll have a great weekend.

Glastonbury 2010 pic...Oh yes, that's the kind of Glasto I like to remember. 1997 was a mudbath, and it was raining while I was there in 1998 (I actually left early, the only time ever)...but 1999 and 2000 were glorious, maybe my favourite years of the lot.
The weather can make or break a festival.

Hey now! The mud had all pretty much dried up by lunchtime on the Sunday. It was sunburn o'clock from Saturday afternoon onwards!

There you go. Schoolboy error. Stout pair of walking boots were what was required.
But, yeah - funnily enough, I'd take 2010's weather over 2011's.
As someone attending both Glasto and Hyde Park, it's not the weather that worries me so much as the weedy sound-system at the latter.

Was so bummed about the Hyde Park T1/ T2 fiasco that it had almost slipped my mind that I'll be seeing them at Worthy Farm the week before.
That's something, I suppose..
