So Much Mud!!!

After our coupled days off in London it was off to the chaos that was Glastonbury. This is one biggest festivals in the world with 180,000 people watching over 300 bands on 10 stages.
This year featured, to name only a few, Chemical Brothers, Rufus Wainwright, Duke Special, Charlotte Hatherly, Arcade Fire, Bjork, Arctic Monkeys, Bloc Party, Kasabian, Iggy Pop, The Kooks, Paul Weller, Lily Allen, The Who, Kaiser Chiefs and hundreds more.
Some people go to Glastonbury and not even see a single band. Just like this guy


This is an area of Glasto called the Greenfields, where hippys basically sit around smoke pot, take magic mushrooms, convince themselves they can solve every one of the worlds problems and say "Maaaaaaan" at the start of every sentance.....Damn Hippys!!! : )


As we arrived Friday night we started to see the full extent of the mud and madness. After a couple hours of programming lights over night i surveyed the scene as the sun came and thought there was hope for the rest of the day.
But i was wrong and we spent most of the next walking around in what felt like chocolate spread



This were my feet at 5am


Eventually it came to showtime and we tried to pull out all the stops for the bands biggest headlining show of theyre career yet which was also watched worldwide by an estimated 8 million people.



Check out the opening of the show with a bang (Or 3000)



The only real downer on the night besides the mud was the fact that Glastonbury impose such an incredibly strict noise limitation on the main stage making the sound difficult to hear at times, you would think people in the local village could get over a bit of noise for the weekend considering the money it brings into the area every year. James our sound guy was pulling his hair but unfortunately there wasnt anything he could do about it.

Right then on the bus and off to Luxembourg we go.
