Yep, going for the first time. I just hope it's dry.

Went in 2011, it pissed down until Saturday, we were there from Wednesday; it was awesome.

My son is playing there and says I can go with him if I want. Not quite sure yet!

Which stage is he playing on?

Attendance should be a no-brainer if you ask me, get yourself in there!

the Acid House Tent.

I'm going, for the second time (first last year) and really looking forward to it. Tip for anyone older than 25,buy decent kit! Makes a lot of difference to be warm and dry when you're a little older!

Tip for anyone older than 40, rent a house

Based on what I've read on efestivals, AC/DC isn't going to happen. Personally a bit gutted, I've always wanted to see them live after watching the Live at Donington DVD. I've got a feeling Blur will probably headline, but I've never been a fan so not too fussed if they do. Royal Blood played in the John Peel tent last year - is there any history of an act playing two years in a row? I'm crossing my fingers and toes for Portishead and Goldfrapp, but seeing as Portishead were there in 2013 and Goldfrapp in 2014 (one of my highlights last year), I'm not getting my hopes up.

He's probably got enough £££ to retire anytime he wants!

Would like to see Blur but have zedro interest in AC/DC although sure they are a polished live act

Royal Blood were very good last year

i reckon gallagher and florence and the machine r v likely. none of the likely headliners really enthral me which is good news as i can go and wander!

oh and libertines which i would like to see

[pitboard]

Decision made. I am going!
As befits a 63 year old, I will be wearing a linen suit and suede brogues.

Glastonbury is one place that would fit in just fine

If AC/DC play at Glastonbury and I'm not there I'll be utterly gutted, would love to see them live and think they'd be a brilliant Glasto headliner.

would certainly go and watch 10 mins as i imagine it would be a good show but doubt i'd watch it all and i think the heavy metal novelty was done last year - albeit it was fantastic!
