I know most here are American but Glastonbury is going on at the moment. Any one watching it? If you have any favourites post it up here for all to see. It's not bad this year I think. Dizzie was good earlier and im looking forward to seeing alt j's set.

I was not too bothered about going. My sister is there and watching it on TV now I wish I was there.

Of the headliners who do you want to see the most, I never really liked the monkeys that much so for me the stones will be amazing it I'm looking forward to Mumford too

The tickets were released when I was skint so couldn't get one.

Although I love festivals, I just think Glastonbury is a bit too big. I'd feel like I was missing out on so much so I wouldn't be able to just stop and enjoy a set.

Watching the Arctic Monkeys on tv now. As good as they are, nothing beats their first album and to be honest, as soon as they played I bet you look good on the dancefloor, I was over the set.

This is one of the best live sets ever:

fair, it seems you need to be earning top dollar to get to any festival for our generation, especially when skiing is one of your hobbies!

^ yeah festivals are expensive now. First iwebt to was Leeds feat in 2000. It was bout £70 for a weekend camping ticket and was somuch fun. I went back to Leeds for about 5 years. Not been to a festival since then but I'm feeling the urge. Maybe leed this year, snoop is playing I think so that would be pretty awsome.

Let's open this up to any festival. I worked for shambahala last year for the visuals for the main stage and I have been working on a cool project for a skier you guys will know this year. What festivals are you going to this summer.

Not a big EDM fan (excuse this generalization genre-anal people, you know what I mean).

But Shred Kelly will be there haha! Probably 1 of 2 actual drum sets on premise haha.
