leegreen 2,182 Posted June 25, 2015 Report Share Posted June 25, 2015 Would love to go, but haven't got it together since the internet applications, picture tickets and oh yeah the fence . But to be honest I can't afford the brain cells. I probably go when my son is old enough to appreciate it. I will certainly get the camper van back on the road, cant do without cold drinks. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Accip74 7,112 Posted June 25, 2015 Author Report Share Posted June 25, 2015 I do plan to go again sometime.......but it will be with family, as a responsible adult haha......so I guess my brain cells or what's left of them should be safe from harm........:-) Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I cant remember where it was but remember seeing metalica on tv playing at a festival.

Well said. All this "it's not as good now" is just rubbish. It's as though they are saying " you won't have as good a time as I did". Unless a person has been to every single one how can they say it's not as good?. And don't forget Newcastle brown ale is not as good as it used to be !. WTF !!!!!!
