Glastonbury whipee

Glastonbury has started. Whipee 

Not for you oldies I know. :;smile:

Not like the old days ,  too many posers now who want to be seen to be there.

My favourites Coldplay

PASS THANKS.  Couldn't stand all that terrible noise.

Yep even I had to pass on radio head Andsome they were a bit depressing so switched over to watch the hilarious Dame Judith Dench on Graham Norton. What a gal.

I love the spectacle  of it all. Even the now Mr Eavis  a pensioner himself  took a group of pensioners all in their 70s and 80s on a pre tour of the site.  They loved it all giggling and laughing at the preparation. It makes people happy.

I love the fact that all ages can attend and mix together in peace and harmony.  There are side shows and jugglers and each tent has different music, normally from new acts.

I unfortunately missed that  one off my bucket list as my friend had broken her leg the year we were going to attend  She went the following year and loved it, the atmosphere  and friendship. 

I now prefer to watch in comfort on my sofa

Foo fighters on the main stage tonight  :;smile:

I saw a bit of Kris Kristofferson. I have bought his music in the past and I think he is also a very good actor. However, maybe he shouldn't have tried to keep going into his 80's. We might appreciate him because of past music but the voice had gone hadn't it?

You can go with ease and peace of mind, andsome. There will be no Mahler stuff.

Very talented gent. 

I just love the atmosphere at festivals. The problem is you only see the bands and not the individual tents.

I am quite quirky  and love jugglers and alternative therapies etc.

Mind you I would head straight for the food hall

It definitely does not come over well on TV and agree to a point, even the Foo fighters sounded a bit of a din.

I prefer to see live music anyway where they tweak the sound before the show.
