Glastonbury 2007: The Uberpost
As is by now sort-of traditional, the Glastonbury Weekend posts gathered into some sort of index. (Note that there are a slew of posts - mostly grumbling about ticketing - from the run up to the festival - for all Glasto 2007 content, check the tag. And, obviously, this post will be expanding, unless we get bored and don't do any posts. There's always that possibility.)

If your idea of fun is getting ripped off and rained on every day while listening to a bunch of snotty kids who can hardly play then good luck to you.
