Mousetrap: this year's mud at Glastonbury was bad though!


Video removed because of the language.

Mousetrap: You can't be sure of the weather, no matter where you go, can you? but I enjoyed the ones I went to. I'd rather see live bands than videos, and sometimes I got to meet some of the players, always worth doing!

Mousetrap: Glastonbury certainly does have a reputation for it's mud, doesn't it! But the Isle of Wight does not. of the two I preferred the latter.

Mousetrap: having lived in both areas, yes I have been to both, but not during the last few years. Have you?

Eriisa: A well known live festival held most years, usually in bad weather (this year in very heavy rain and mud) in Glastonbury England.

Similarly the Isle of Wight festival is held in somewhat better weather on the Isle of Wight, an annual event.
