Glastonbury 2005 - A Wash?

Mr. Anderson, my wonderful buddy from across the pond sent me a picture of the Glastonbury Festival, which officially gets underway today. For everyone that doesn't know what this festival is all about, it is the largest open air music festival in the world, selling approx 135,000 tickets, which sell out almost immediately, you have to have British citizenship, etc, etc, etc to get tickets.

The festival is held near a town called Pilton, in the midst of Worthy Farm, beautiful surrondings, etc and a massives lineup each year. One day before I get too old you will see me camping out there, no shower for 4 days, and total exhaustion from music overload.

Here shows tents half in water, at least its clean, but can you imagine the mud! ARG! Good mud pie weather!



Nate Dogg, C-Dogg and I were en-route to the festival a few years back, but the tickets sold out in a record 3 hours, because it was announced that Radiohead and REM were playing. So hence you get 85,000 Radiohead and REM fans, and the the rest.

Neil, one of these years hook a brotha up!
