    Got back a few hours ago from this years Glastonbury 2004, headline by Oasis, Paul McCartney and Muse. Went with friends from home and uni, and had a action packed weekend.

    I'll leave you with a few pictures i took with my Canon A60 (some while under the influence), so apologies if they are not that good :nuts:

    Click thumbnail of THIS panoramic pic for larger version of this 360 degrees shot of the Jazz world stage on Friday before it got muddy:thumbs:

    BLOODY ACE wasn't it? Those long drop bogs are the way forward...

    Just wish I'd done a sunrise at the stones but was too tired with the house move, mud, and sighted guide. Roll on next year.

    If I can get my HOME PC to boot and upload (it's marked for death!), I'll put my Glasto pics on here soon - can I blag your one of the long drops though, as mine didn't come out? (crappy £100 Fuji digicam) Here's my sunrise piccy from LAST year though :)

    The bandstand on Thursday night was ROCKING!!!

    Reports indicate that the festival has rather lost its 'edge', and far from being 'out-there', has instead become a diary date for awfully nice middle-class people, rather along the lines of the Chelsea Flower Show, Glyndebourne, Henley Regatta, etc. Having poor old Paul McCartney headlining seems to say it all.

    All the people in the pictures look very well-scrubbed and cared-for, apart from the bloke at the front of the 4th one down, who appears to have just swallowed a bee.

    He looks remarkably like a middle aged woman these days - in fact much more like a woman than Nadia off BB5 does...

    I like the speaker stands in the pix!

    He has always been a middle-aged woman. Compare his post-Beatles career with that of JL:

    'Band on the run' versus 'Imagine'.

    Nullo contendere.

    Your avatar looks like a minimalist lavatory, btw.
