    Never been to either. Never really fancied festivals. Prefer gigs in small venues where you can see the whites of the singer/band's eyes. Much better atmosphere - usually.

    Plus the line up for IoW sounds ****ing awful. Kaiser Chiefs, Kings of Leon, Kasabian, Pink. Pink for ****s' sake!

    I don't do festivals in the UK, way too overpriced and busy.

    Europe is the place to be, **** being rained on at a festival you pay £200 for

    I missed that year as the mother in law was terminally ill.

    Glastonbury is well handy for me as im in Bristol but i know what you mean the weather is key.

    There is one in Valencia i have heard is brilliant.

    I grew up in France so usually go back there. A ticket for a 3-4 day festival is usually &#8364;50-&#8364;80 euros, with free campsite and cheap food/drinks on site. Loads of my mates go to Serbia too, they always sound pretty good. Portugal has a couple but they're trance raves, no comment.

    Sounds pretty decent.The only worry I have about IOW is they kick you out after the bands finish.Back to your tent,at least you can wander about Glastonbury all night if you want out your tree.

    Everything I heard about the IOW festival sounds pretty ****...

    Police searches when you get in: Not for me

    Ferry that takes ages to get there and back: **** waiting for hours when you want to get back

    ****ty Weather: No chance I'm going somewhere to get rained on

    Also most people there are teenagers

    Sounds Great <ok>
