  • Pilton...I mean Glasto' Festival

jonattonyeah Burning Man is no joke. It’s A LOT of work.

Yeah, the more I looked into it the madder it got, some of the airport hire places wanted proof of hotels the night before pick up with really specific pick up times, along with lots of financial proof and long lead in times… I can only assume that week / month is a horror show for them. Lots of conditions before you were allowed onto the playa too. Throw in all the travel and the cost and its harder and harder to justify from over here. I’m pretty much done with flying too.

      Amps I’m pretty much done with flying too.

      Why not sail?

      5 days swirling round the Irish Sea before washing up on the shore of the Isle of Man screaming “where the party at”

          Amps Reminds me of that Fundacion waffle…. however, if I was off my chops at a festival I’d been loving it front & centre.

            Got through a shedload of vids last night. Robert Plant seemed to be the best of the lot imo, his voice sounded great all things considered. Incapable by Murphy sounded good. By the end I couldn’t stick looking at all the trust funders down the front, sober as fuck, with their shades on and phones in the air, luminous headbands all over the shop.

            The BBC footage would excel if they went off the beaten track and showed a better selection from all over the Festival. It would increase the quality of people watching anyway.

              Dan I remember Sasha dropping the Carl Craig remix at fabric a few years back. Sounded incredible when the sub bass finally came in.

                LT42 The BBC footage would excel if they went off the beaten track and showed a better selection from all over the Festival. It would increase the quality of people watching anyway.

                Yeah I wish they would show a bit more of the electronic stuff.

                    mono-stereo
                    I read the other day that the reason they can’t show any DJ sets is down to licencing issues. They could’ve shown bicep live at least

                        I get second hand embarrassment watching DJ’s on the TV. Remember BBC2 doing it once from Cream and the levels of cringe were off the chart!

                        alistair The irony of Digweed dropping a recent Chems track so soon after the slagging they got by some on here. His tracklists over the years are full of their stuff.

                        Diggers could play their full back catalogue for all I care, that doesn’t stop me thinking the chems are overrated.

                          Bicep were absolutely sensational at Glastonbury.

                          Dubman thought they were great, not worth watching though, might aswell just listen to the set on mixcloud.

                            LT42 agreed, would be good to see more from the festival, it’s got so much more than just the main stages.

                              Love how the lead story on the BBC news website is about the rising Covid rates, and attached is a picture of a crowd at Glasnost – proper Daily Mail vibes
