If you've read my Glastonbury write-ups before, you'll know that bands are listed at the start of each day. []s denote a band I either saw only a little of, or wasn't paying much attention to.

If you haven't read them before, then you won't know that they're best avoided due to extreme verbosity.

You know what happens in early July, don't you ? Yes, that's right, you get me writing at mind-numbing length about Glastonbury festival. And this year you won't have to hear me complaining about the mud. No mud! NO MUD ( Read more... )

Bored of sunshine ? Don't worry, I'm about to head to Glastonbury so it'll start tipping it down any minute.

I feel it should be red wine today, but actually it's local cider. Watching Leonard Cohen and the sun is still shining. LEONARD COHEN!!

My goal for Glastonbury was to sit on grass in front of The Pyramid, in sunshine, drinking champagne while watching a band. Just achieved it :)

My apologies for the mind-numbing length... this has been growing over the last few days. I like my past write-ups ( 2004, 2005) because I forget stuff and go back to check and end up thinking "good lord did I really voluntarily watch Keane?" and so on. So, this entry is really for my benefit. Read at own risk!
