Unless it’s your own politics, of course.
My wife has a cousin who has a food stall there, every year she looks for help, paid obviously. From what I’m told it’s very hard work but a great craic. They are within earshot of one of the main stages (pyramid I think) this year. Thing is you’ re working so clearly the experience just isn’t the same as a punter. They arrive a couple of days before to get set up too. I’ve thought of doing it myself but feel like I don’t need the money and wouldn’t want to deprive a younger person in need of the cash.
Wouldn't it be great to see them headline, now that's a proper headliner with LCD as sub sub, I can't see it happening but thats how she should be doing it. Someone new, someone iconic and someone for the masses, easy...
Thanks for this but I was referring to unpaid volunteers recruited specifically by the event organisers.My wife has a cousin who has a food stall there, every year she looks for help, paid obviously.

I just find them really awful, so awful I find them offensive. I’ve seen them live a few times through work, did pay to see them years ago when they were relatively unknown and didn’t mind them so much, but each to his own. If we were all the same life would be pretty drab wouldn’t it?
Disagree entirely in that, while I acknowledge nods to Talking Heads, James Murphy is fantastic songwriter and front man in his own right. But hey, musical taste is subjective.
Admit it, you only posted that because it's Vegan food.... lol ;)My wife has a cousin who has a food stall there, every year she looks for help, paid obviously.

Its 3 x 8 hour shifts, most festivals do 3 x 6 hour shift, so its a big chunk of time. The amount of people doing it now makes it very difficult considering the £400 cost for ticket and parking now. I like Glasto but I'm not paying £400 for it, no chance. I would consider volunteering.
Haha I love a good steak meself
