I don't think I would object to any act, apart from Bjorn Again. They're an Abba tribute right? But if we're playing this game I'm really looking forward to bolded.

I might drive up and try n break in tomorow, or after the rain has fully strawberry floated the place up so the security have no moral left in them.

Missing out this year, after going last. The place is just too big - you end up missing loads of bands, and a drop of rain really strawberry floats the place up. Gutted I'm missing Springsteen though :cry:

I was tempted to do that, but having to drive for 4 hours, only to find out my mate's brother was lying isn't really worth it. Shame, cos it would be awesome to get in for free.

Most of the decent bands are doing TITP, which I'm going to. The rest I've either seen before, or am not bothered about, so I can safely give Glasto a miss this year.

I've always heard glastonbury isn't about the large bands, it's the small ones you've got to look out for. And one year my mate heard some amazing dub/thingy stuff and on getting in a packed tent found all there was on the stage was some crazed beat boxer. Now I'd much prefer to find something like that, completely unexpected.
