Glastonbury 20:41 - Jun 27 with 7996 views | max936 | Anyone watching? I put it on when I got home from the daily slog enjoyed Lewis Capaldi he was excellent, Alanis Morissette was decent as well. Used to think about going, but wading through those crowds to see different acts on the different Stages would pee me off immensily, |  |

Glastonbury on 10:11 - Jun 28 by Dr_Winston | Back in the good/bad (depending on your opinion) days when security firms were less regulated I had a number of offers to go and work at Glastonbury. My mother's other half used to do it every year. Used to come back with a minibus full of confiscated beer. Probably should have done it at least once just for the experience. Would have no interest in going as a spectator. Bit of a cringe fest these days. Too many "Led By Donkeys" fans. |
One of my " troops" was one of the leading " security" team and was whilst he was suspended by Plod over a job On his return, he got sacked but had already got himself a job of head of security at a major PL club Interesting post from you |  |

Popped to Pilot today Uni around 4ish, couple of light ales and come home, don't have more than 3 or 4 now, cut right back, had a few glasses of red last night, though, on the H2O now, nice pint of filtered water, one of the best decisions I've made was to install a water filter, makes a massive difference. |  |

Glastonbury on 09:57 - Jun 28 by onehunglow | That's Bluddy simple Togg All CCR songs rarely more than three chord truck but Fogertys voice makes it work All of us old bustards realise we were spokierecall the lines up of the IOW original festivals It's embarrassingly brilliant to read now I feel for kids now It's all about virtue signalling , good causes, being kind , exactly what rock n roll isn't Still Pippa and Tarquin will have something to chat about at the Prep school open day |
Yes it was mostly three chords. Reminds me of playing the Penlan Social Club some time in the 70's. There was a bloke right at the front reading the Evening Post. Couldn't see his face, just the paper. As soon as we hit the first couple of chords he put the paper down and said loud enough even for us to hear 'not f*****g Proud Mary again'. Happy days. |  | |  |

Theyâve got Statopromen in tap in The Pilot which I quite like. Iâve never been a huge drinker, bit of binging maybe in my younger days but coukd take it or leave it. I like a small bottle nightly now, ice cold from the fridge. Not healthy really so good on ya for cutting down. Anyway, who is the guy with the Irish face mask in the link? |  |

No idea, saw Vylan surfing the crowd earlier before we went out, never heard of Kneecap or Vylan before today. [Post edited 28 Jun 23:01]

Kneecap have been in the news a lot these past few weeks. Clearly got a certain type of following. Just thought it strange one was wearing a Swans shirt. |  |

Exactly! the BBC getting their knickers in a twist just gives them more of bigger a stage pardon the pun. Leave them to it ignore them, watch them, turn it off, turn it up. The sun will come up again tomorrow |  |

Glastonbury on 09:11 - Jun 29 with 1353 views | mangohilljack | Glastonbury just isnât what it used to be. I went every year throughout the â90s â apart from the cancelled one â right up until they built that new wall. Back then, it wasnât for the faint-hearted. It had grit, chaos, and real character. You wouldnât catch todayâs far-left, hyper-woke crowd anywhere near it â they simply wouldnât have survived the mud, madness, or mayhem. It used to be a proper festival â a wild mix of people from all walks of life coming together for the music and the atmosphere. Now? Itâs been overrun by middle-class Home Counties types who look like theyâve wandered in from a Boden catalogue and wouldnât recognise a decent band if it slapped them in the face mid-flat white. The line-ups back in the â90s were absolutely unreal â proper rock, indie, and dance acts across every night. It was raw, diverse, and electric. These days, it feels more like a curated Instagram experience than a celebration of music and culture. |  | |  |

Never been but can't argue with that. Holly Willoughby being helicoptered in and all that nonsense. Had the misfortune to catch some of CMATS set. Oh dear me. Enjoyed Amyl and Sniffers though. A bit of good old fashioned Punk Rock. Not for everyone I would imagine but I enjoyed. Had a bit of attitude. |  | |  |

Apparently he changed his name to avoid surveillance in what he calls a police state, now call me old fashioned but if you wanted to avoid surveillance would you choose to be a music performer? |  |
