Glastonbury 2009
Discussion
Dare I start this thread?
I'm dead excited, last year was my first year, camped right next to the Park Stage, which was a great location but I got so little sleep!
Was thinking of the Dragon Fields this year, like a bit of hippy action, not too far away from the good stages (although a bit of a treck from the Dance tents).
Dead keen to see Blur reform - can't wait for their closing gig!
So... who else is going? Any favourites for camping fields. Might take the MGF!

Lightweight.We're going again, this year will be my 10th, was going to be my final but then I saw what was being planned for next year so it will be 11 at least.
We always camp in Park Home Ground as Pennards just got too busy too early from 2000 onwards.

so wassat then?I dont know if the members of The Animals are still alive but can you imagine The House of Rising Sun on the Pyramid Stage?
This year will be my first year. I cannot wait. Some say the line up is not so great but I don't think they get the whole 'Glastonbury' thing in that it is not always about the music. That is why I am also going to V Festival with that particular bunch of friends. The big benders.
I am particularly looking forward to experiencing the silent disco. Oh, and Blur!
Here's hoping that the weather is sunny for the five days and that I can sneak a giant, and hugely immature, cock and balls flag into my bag without my girlfriend seeing. I am sure my mother would be so proud if I could get that onto the BBC coverage!

Failed to pick up a ticket this time (missed the boat for registeration and then discovered no one I knew was bothering this year anyway
) Hopefully I'll be there to watch House Of The Rising Sun though.Plotloss said:

Yep seriously clucking for it now. Bought my ticket a week ago, there are still some on the site accasionally - keep checking, you might be lucky!
Will be somewhere near the Dragon field, I think - not camped there before so gonna give it a go.
Campervans rock. I took my old 72 Bay, we had a blast. Brilliant getting back to the van at the end of the night, to a carpetted awning, 240v, a chandolier(!), gas stove, 6 speaker radio, shower out the back, somewhere comfy to sit and, er, socialise, and security for your stuff!
Back in tents now tho...
