I hate to admit it, but I live about 4 miles from the 2002 image. I know almost everyone in the pic, and I am fairly good friends wit Randy Tidwell. We call him Elbow (for what reason only christ knows). He is kinda like the icon for this bullshit event, which was just held here on 9/10 July. Damn, I can't believe I missed it...hohumm.....
We've had this for a few years now. I went to the second one out of curiosity, and it didn't take long to realize I DIDN'T FIT IN. Folks around here are fanatical about it. They say it puts our town on the map. My opinion: It broadcasts the fact, (nationally, I might add) that from this town hails the most dumbass sumbitches ever recognized. Of course that's just MY opinion, right? It is held at Buckeye Park in East Dublin, Ga. The "park" consists of..... a public boat landing. People from all over the world....and parts of Alabama have patronized this great cultural event. Don't miss it next year.... but don't look for capnhowdy. BTW.. Mr. Tidwell isn't like this in real life. He's just stoopid without the ugly face. Sorry about that, Randy............ ;) |

That's cool Capn! I can't believe the Cellar brought you around to this, rather than the other way around. We have people from all over the world...
Well, the original 2001 image was the one that got the Cellar FARKed for a day, which lead to the current "most users ever" number that for some reason I've left on the front page. It's still a great photograph. |

http://www.bbc.co.uk/music/glastonbu...y_rain/g/1.jpg That photo is a bit old, the water was at it's highest first thing in the morning when the portaloos were floating on the surface! :greenface But the mud was fun. I had no wellies! Nightmare :lol: Typical Glastonbury newbie I was! |
Portaloos sound so much nicer than portapotties, but I know they aren't.

Yeah, I do get that bit. Nothing containing that much crap is seaworthy.
So, is Glastonbury just a big hippie festival, or is it a pagan event, and how close to the Tor is it? |
It's just a music festival really. There may be a few hippie types there, but certainly no pagans! Well, not that I noticed. But everyone is really chilled out and friendly. I had a couple of wicked nights (before the rain came!) sat up by the stone circle (it's like a minature stone henge) chilling with people and listening to a big group of folk improvise on the bongos until the sun rises again. I got a wicked photo taken with my phone of some guys stood on one of the stones making a very pleasing silhouette against the sunset. If I can get it onto my PC i'll post it. Just wish I had something decent on me to take the shot with.
