My fantasy festival for this year

triskellianVlastoning (happening on neither the August bank holiday weekend nor the end of June): Massive Attack, Muse, Prince, REM, Radiohead, Suede, Metallica, Chilis, Foos.
Obviously this isn't my general fantasy festival (spot lack of Tori Amos, for a start ;-), but sadly a combination of people playing at this year's lot. Grump. Why can't they bump Craig David and Coldplay and other crap and boring people off the bills, and move around the cool people? Damn them.

Glasto was just too big. There was no sense of cosyness like at Leeds/Reading - you never bumped into anyone randomly because there were like 100 000 people there.
And I really liked the camp-fire/drinking aspect of last year

God, glasto looks amazing....

Date: 2003-01-13 09:41 am (UTC)My grandparents live quite near Glastonbury (well, near if you can drive), so a one-day jaunt there is quite tempting. I'd go for Radiohead, especially if they could manage Massive Attack and/or Muse and/or Flaming Lips and/or Bodger and Badger the same day. One of those is a lie.
Also, I'll race anyone up the Tor who fancies it.
Re: Reading, I refuse to see Nickelback, or any band which is likely to thank them for being there, either "coming next" or "earlier today". I'll make an exception for headliners who include Nickelback in a list of lots of the bands on that day, but only if they (the headliners) have an album in my personal top 20 of all time.
Re:
Date: 2003-01-13 09:49 am (UTC)lets see what the line up is like.
In my opinion the group bonding is more important so I'll go with majority opinion on which to actually go to for the whole weekend.
