    Afternoon everyone. Never been to Glastonbury but I hear that the Haggis Horns are playing (Corrine Bailey's late husband used to play with them). They are great, kind of funky !!!!!! music.

    I was 19 and felt as though I was one of the youngest there.
    We were all into Greenpeace, CND, Friends of the Earth etc
    I'm going to try and find out a bit more about who might have been playing that year cos I'm blowed if I can remember.
    I know I had a great time though.;)

  • Glasto no thanks

    The Hydro connect festival is the one for me and I have friends in inverarary so I can stay with them but I kinda want to roll in the mud!

    Won 2 cinema tickets today so might have a movie weekend!
    Was there a Glastonbury movie or am I imagining that?
    Isn't the knowledge that comes from experience more valuable than the knowledge that doesn't?

    Jay-Z and Kings of Leon plus loads of others - Pigeon Detectives (from Leeds....woooo! :D), Zutons (who I love), Massive Attack, Fratellis, Editors, Raconteurs......um.....and I do believe Shakin' Stevens may be!

    It's easy to give in to that negative voice that chants "cant do it" BUT we lift each other up.
    We dont count all the runners ahead of us & feel intimidated.
    Instead we look back proudly at our journey, our personal struggle & determination & remember that there are those that never even attempt to reach the starting line.
