Anyone else watching? I love watching it on the tv. Good view, not too loud, can shower every day and raid the fridge .

Watching The Specials right now - fantastic.

2shoes · 26/06/2009 21:58

I almost wish I was there

PavlovtheForgetfulCat · 26/06/2009 21:59

Just watched the specials on bbc4, fucking great. I now have a newly awakened crush on Terry Hall.

HumphreyCobbler · 26/06/2009 22:00

I can't bear to watch, I want to be there sooo much

GlastonburyGoddess · 26/06/2009 22:00

glad im not, soggy muddy clothes and tents, it poured and poured and poured with rain no stop today until about noon

Meglet · 26/06/2009 22:01

It goes on so late on the tv I can see myself staying up watching it way past my bedtime.

7y DD watched Lady GaGa and The Ting Tings (late night cos of school play). Caught a little bit of The Specials.

Bonneville · 26/06/2009 22:11

Im glad Im not there. Its toooooo big.

HumphreyCobbler · 26/06/2009 22:11

given the current state of my life I can even get nostalgic about the mud

besides, we used to go in a camper van so it was civilised

I LOVE Neil Young, and am really enjoying his Day in the Life cover. He was taking the piss a bit at the end of Rockin' in the Free World though, wasn't he? Cool how he got the audience looking like a field of corn. He is ace.

Have never been to Glastonbury (was always a Reading girl) but it does look really lovely this year, and I quite want to go now.

bumsrush · 27/06/2009 00:12

Aw I so wanted to be there this year, I wanted to take the kids but school wasn't finished and they had all their trips and everything.

Botbot · 27/06/2009 00:18

Can live without Bloc Party though.

Botbot · 27/06/2009 00:23

oops, have just realised this is Doves not Bloc Party. Am so au fait with today's shite music, me

DollyPardonme · 27/06/2009 00:30

oooh

Neil Young,

what a guy

AND WE ARE GOING TO SEE HIM TOMORROW AT HARD ROCK CALLING

lowrib · 27/06/2009 00:33

I wish I was there!!!!!

Next year ...

PavlovtheForgetfulCat · 27/06/2009 07:39

Dolly - oh I bet you can't wait now! I am going to watch Bruce tonight for the same reason - seeing him tomorrow at Hard Rock Calling. Would love to have seen Neil Young too though. He is a legend.

Tell us know how it was

AnathemaDevice · 27/06/2009 11:08

Watched some last night, recorded the rest and watching it this morning. I've cried twice so far, I want to be there more than anything. I've been so miserable all week, I thought watching it on telly and seeing all the mud would make me feel better, but I just feel worse.
Next year DS will be old enough to go (he'll be more or less 15 months by then), and we will be there!

Meglet · 27/06/2009 14:29

Just catching up on the bits I taped last night. V V Brown is ace, I'd heard good reviews of her but never heard her music until now. Legs to die for too .

I think maybe I could take the kids in 2 years they'll be 4 + 2 by then. I'll rope some freinds / family into coming too.

went pretty much every year in the 90s but haven't been for 9 years now. It has gotten big big big! So much going on at any one time - so hard to choose!

gallusbesom · 27/06/2009 21:18

Love watching it but makes me feel old cos I went in 1994 (Blur headlining the Other Stage) and 1995 (Pulp totally rocking the Pyramid stage)

AngeChica · 27/06/2009 21:25

Yeah me too! Tomorrow night - the 90s all over again - Blur clash with the Prodigy. That would be so hard to choose!

Meglet · 27/06/2009 22:12

I think i must have the mentality of a teenage boy, I'm liking Pendulum. I think I have cabin fever after a week on my own with the dc's.

notnowbernard · 27/06/2009 22:13

NO

I want to be there

GrapefruitMoon · 27/06/2009 22:18

I loved the Specials too though I am firmly in denial that is 30 years since I first liked them (some of them did look very old though!)
