The Glastonbury Festival - 2015

This video sees Lisa and I attend the Glastonbury Festival. I have documented some of the highlights from the 5 days that we were there and included many of the acts and shows we saw. Even 5 days isn't enough to catch everything Glastonbury has to offer but I hope this videos gives you a good taste of how great and grand the festival is. During the course of the festival we caught acts like, Lionel Richie, Florence & The Machine, Mark Ronson, The Who, Ben Howard, James Bay, Paul Weller, The Proclaimers, Motörhead and even the rather disappointing Kanye West who officially has the worlds biggest ego. My partner Lisa was even interviewed twice by the BBC :-) Where else in the world can you sing happy birthday to the Dalai Lama, Appear on TV, See a robotic spider spitting flames, Dance to Acid House with Bez from the Happy Monday's, See Kryten from Red Dwarf and witness some of the best acts on the planets in just 24 hours :-) Roll on next year

[@hgwman]

Fantastic Dean! Never been here, totally not what I expected it to be having only ever watched clips on TV with folk up to their necks in mud. Never realised so much went on there, really enjoyed the footage. That guy Jolly Jock was married to a school friend, sadly he passed away last year. Lisa was really good in the interviews. Thanks again! Dave

[@qwertyduusup]

mate you missed the best part about glastonbury, staying up in some remote dance tent until 6am, then going back so fucked up on a cocktail of drugs you cant sleep until 9

[@DeanRead]

I've saved that footage for the directors cut :-) haha

[@Charlotte-jw4hn]

I swear between the hours of 4-7am is the best part of Glastonbury

[@qwertyduusup]

+cbelleblog gonna be fucking muad this year

[@edinshealtiel3754]

wow...

[@DeanRead]

+edin shealtiel thanks for watching Edin

[@Bajeeebus]

Every five seconds or so , I'm reminded of something I loved about last year's festival; random people you meet, random performers you find, unforgettable headliners (the truly awesome AND the truly awful), the green fields, the stone circle, shangri-la being packed, the heat that comes from Arcadia as it shoots flames into the air, the drugs, the food, the drinking, the dancing, the friends, the family, finding mates out of nowhere at 2 in the morning, waking up next to the big sign at the top of the hill with no idea how you got there, making friends with the staff, getting into trouble with the staff, laughing in the afternoon, smiling at night...fuck...now June can't come any faster. Hope the resale was as good to you as it was for us.

[@DeanRead]

+Baj it's such an amazing place and the vibe and friendly nature of everyone there makes it for me. I could happily just spend the whole 5 days wandering round and it wouldn't bother me who was on the main stages... So gutted we didn't get tickets for 2016. Thanks for watching Baj

[@davieswalks6829]

Wonderful vid Dean. Looked a magical place mate. Lisa is a star in the making! Always an honour to hear from the Dalai Lama.

[@DeanRead]

Lisa will no doubt be taking over my channel soon :-) really was a great honour to see the Dalai Lama, we didn't get notified where he was going to talk until an hour or so before via the Glastonbury Twitter account, I would have been gutted if we had missed him

[@Jo-ue5kq]

I really liked your video, thanks. Been to Glastonbury 6 times and 2015 was one of my favourites. I fancied a nostalgic tripdown memory lane and this was perfect.

[@DeanRead]

Thanks for watching Jo. Had some great Glastonbury times, would love to be relaxing in the Healing Fields now 😁

[@mcfontaine]

Nice one Dean. Between about 1990 and 2005 I went something like 10 times. We always camped in the same place. Each year we met up with the same 30+ people from all over the country & world, it was our yearly catch-up. Some of the best bits/memories were the late night/early morning camp fires. As it got bigger and bigger over the years it ended up we couldn't do any of that anymore ... someone actually pitched a tent over our recently put out fire one year ... with the expected result. We couldn't even camp all together by our last visit and that somewhat killed us wanting to go again. Brilliantly put together video my friend.

[@DeanRead]

Thanks for watching Mark, one of the guys I work with echoed your thoughts. He preferred it before it went huge, he said it became manic once people starting jumping the fences and it was just too busy in the early 2000s. They restricted the numbers further I do believe this year so it didn't feel too bad this time. We pitched the tent in a way that left us reasonable space but not enough for others to pitch between us :-)

[@mcfontaine]

Yeah it sounded like they had dropped the numbers from when I went last. I'm sure it was 175,000+ the last time. It was just crazy. It was even crowded on the Weds & Thurs which always use to be the two days you chilled out, caught up with old friends & prepared for the madness to follow. I think you did a great job of capturing the spirit of 5 days in less than 30 mins. Has your better half got an agent yet after all her TV interviews ;)

[@petemarsden9431]

Superb coverage of the festival Dean!

[@DeanRead]

Thanks for watching Pete

[@elgordo]

Fingers crossed you get tickets in the resale - I'd love to see 2016 as well. Your film is the closest I've felt to Glastonbury except being there. Thank you.

[@DeanRead]

+Dee Cee thanks for watching Dee, I have all my fingers crossed for the resale this Sunday :-)

[@arjenfolk4109]

Mooie video!!! 2015 ook geweest en tickets 2016 ook binnen!! love it

[@maxxy67]

amazing video unfortunately a year missed by me after going since 1986 ive not been able to get a ticket since 2013 & am seriously gutted, thanx for showing me the place i call home...

[@DeanRead]

+maxxy67 sadly we didn't get a ticket for 2017 either :-( thanks for watching

[@aplinewalker]

What a smashing video Dean,,, seen bits on TV before but this gave a much more insight into what Glastonbury is all about, most of the performers names I have never heard of, but for instance the chap from scrap heap challenge sounded very interesting ,,,and it looked as if there were many such interesting stalls and stands and some amazing works of art,,,, and it really gave a much more rounded view and captured the shear scale of the festival ,,,,and to have captured the Dalai Lama then thats got to be a moment to cherish ,,,, an all round real eye opener and so informative,, Nice to see your finally coming to realize that Lisa is the one the camera can not turn away from,,,( I look forward to the Lisa Read Channel ) Great video ,,,,, many thanks ,,,,,, Alan

[@DeanRead]

Thanks for watching Alan, it was a real honour to see the Dalai Lama and I enjoyed every moment of the festival. Robert Llewellyn is a really nice guy and his talk was hilarious :-)

[@chesternalfie]

hugely enjoyed this. good memories. roll on 2016

[@DeanRead]

We didn't get tickets for 2016 sadly but fingers crossed for the resale :-)

[@chesternalfie]

+Dean Read hope you have better luck in the resale

[@gillianhudson9879]

Many thanks for this fabulous insight

[@DeanRead]

+Gillian Hudson thanks for watching Gillian, hope you have a great time if you are going this year

[@eleanorharrington469]

LOOKS SO FUN. GLASTONBURY IS TOP OF MY BUCKET LIST

[@DeanRead]

It was awesome, gutted we haven't got tickets yet for 2016 :-)

[@bullersimpkins]

great video and i really got a sense of the place especially in the shots from the first couple of days before it all really kicks off. alas I already decided about 15 odd years ago I wouldnt be doing Glastonbury anymore after my thoughts on what it has become. My memories are of Glastonbury are of yonder years with hawkwind,hippies, the convoy, and of course sneaking in for free in the early hours. In fact your vid bought some of that excitement and feeling of freedom flooding back. much more than we see on BBC even though I am grateful for their great coverage of the bands. so yeah, thanks.

[@funkyprepper]

Thanks for taking the time and effort to film what you did, looks like a fantastic time - great job mate

[@DeanRead]

Thanks for watching mate, we had a really great time and I didn't really want it to end :-)

[@MrNewtgat]

Thanks Dean - I'm a Glasto nut - been going since '85 - I love in Melbourne down under and will be back again this year - so anyones journey reminds me of my own..thanks mate - see you in 2016?

[@DeanRead]

Sadly we didn't manage to get tickets for 2016, fingers crossed we have some luck in the resale early next year as I'd really love to go. Thanks for watching

[@Black73Cat]

Cracking job mate! Really good to see it from a visitor's viewpoint. Always wanted to go but just never got around to it...reckon I need to pull my finger out! Thanks for sharing...loved it! Oh yeah...good too see Lisa bopping to a bit of Lemmy :-)

[@DeanRead]

I really enjoy going mate, love it. Lisa loves a bit of Lemmy as she grew up with that sort of heavy metal / rock. Thanks for watching mate, I still need to sort dates out for the Northumberland Coast trip. Just realised I haven't replied to your audio via Whatsapp (I am bloody terrible with that app) sorry mate

[@Black73Cat]

Nee botha...you're a busy man! I'm still pretty flexible on dates, I think. :-)

[@DeanRead]

I've been busy but I'm pretty useless too :-) will get you some dates asap

[@StephenTurnockMIRPCertRP]

Thanks Dean for a roller coaster trip round Glastonbury Festival and great line up with brilliant coverage.. loved the spider - a bit like war of the worlds!

[@DeanRead]

Thanks for watching Stephen, that spider is very War of the Worlds isn't it :-) I was mesmerised by it again this year.

[@DANSCARBOROUGH46]

Great to reminisce on 2015 and get excited for this year. Hope you've got your tickets.

[@DeanRead]

+Dan Greenley thanks for watching Dan, sadly we didn't manage to get tickets for 2016. Hope you have a great time this year though

[@DANSCARBOROUGH46]

Couple of our party got tickets in the secret resale a fortnight before. He's an IT guru and set an alert for when the page changed! Lionel was certainly a highlight of the 7 years I've been. d:-)

[@DeanRead]

Dan Greenley Lionel was great, he certainly got the crowd going :-) I particularly enjoyed "Shrinal Richie" and the attention to detail they put in.... That's what I love about Glastonbury, the attention to detail throughout the festival is amazing.... I don't think I can watch the TV coverage of 2016 as I'll be way too jealous I think, I'm going to hide under a rock I think or up a mountain :-)

[@Tubekeny1]

Best Glasto vid I've seen yet for 2015 event. Nice one!

[@reached6050]

I think that's putting the GREAT in the "great outdoors"better coverage than the news lol. Looked as good as i often thought it would be Thanks for sharing ATB Dave

[@DeanRead]

Thanks for watching Dave, it's a really great festival and I was gutted when it was time to go home :-)

[@Dorset_Phil]

Great video as always.

[@DeanRead]

Thanks for watching Philip

[@jimbosupernova]

This is getting me hyped for next week!!

[@DeanRead]

Hope you have a great time James, thanks for watching

[@chrismilly]

Great video , well filmed, reminded me of how it felt when I went to Glastonbury back in 89 and 90 , something you don't get when watching it on tv thanks!

[@DeanRead]

+chrismilly thanks for watching Chris, really enjoyed it. Hoping to go this year but we have our fingers crossed massively for the resale next weekend

[@jonnycourageous]

Fabulous video, almost like you are there. I've always dreamed to go to Glastonbury and I didn't realise how diverse the festival is until I saw this

[@DeanRead]

+jonnycourageous thanks for watching, it's a really great Festival and I would happily go even if there were no acts I wanted to see on the main stages. There is so much happening everywhere and like you say it's very diverse

[@russellthomas3712]

Hi Dean - Really enjoyed your film. It captured the amazing atmosphere and variety that you don't get from TV / media etc. Great work and I enjoyed reminiscing. Cheers

[@DeanRead]

Thanks for watching Russell, 2015 was a good year

[@n33cho]

Great video. Just been looking at a few after getting tickets for 2019. This is the best I've seen!! Great job!

[@DeanRead]

Thanks for watching Nicko, we missed out on tickets for 2019 but will definitely try again in the resale

[@MaeGuzman]

Hey Dean! Nice to meet you! My name is Mae, I'm writing you from Guatemala :) Thank you for sharing your experience at Glastonbury! It help me so much because it gave me an idea about how's gonna to be on 2017 😁 (the year that I am planning to go) Hope to see you in that year!

[@DeanRead]

+Mae Guzman thank you for watching the video Mae, I hope you have a great time at the festival if you go in 2017 :-)

[@MaeGuzman]

+Dean Read Thank you! If I decide to go, could you help with some questions? Obviously that will be next year 😁🤘🏻

[@DeanRead]

+Mae Guzman not a problem, I will help if I can

[@pstylie4943]

Great video Dean, really well put together and gives a great taste of what's to come this year. It'll be my first time to Glastonbury along with my wife later this month and this has really wet my appetite! Really looking forward to it - and I'm also impressed that you captured all the footage on an iPhone 6 Plus - didn't realise they were that good!

[@DeanRead]

+Paul Styles hi Paul, thanks for watching. I hope you have a really great time, I'm gutted we didn't get tickets :-) the iPhone 6 Plus has been great for recording video, the footage it takes is excellent for a mobile device

[@grahampar]

Dean, sorry you didn't get tickets in the resale! I've not failed in the last 10 years partly because there's a huge gang of us all trying at the same time. It's like a military operation, superbly co-ordinated. Next year send me your reg details and I'll add you to our list. it's the least I can do for providing us with such a brilliant video

[@DeanRead]

+Graham Parkinson thanks for watching Graham, hopefully we have more luck in 2017. Thanks for the offer of help, that would be great. The previous few times we attended we have been part of a big group and had no issues getting tickets.... There was only us two trying this time so we failed massively. Have a good 2016 festival

[@MattWalshdevilsarmchair]

Nice video, you come across really well :)

[@DeanRead]

+Matt Walsh thanks for watching Matt :-)

[@roytarquin8637]

What a brilliant vid and all looked good natured

[@DeanRead]

+Roy Tarquin Thanks for watching :-)

[@ghostcammy130]

Great vid and a fantastic adventure. Thanks for sharing. Cheers.

[@DeanRead]

Thanks for watching :-)

[@WilcodeJonge]

Nice one for a change Dean - to say the least of it. Loved it. Even some atmospheric reminders of the happy hippy days of Woodstock and Wight!

[@DeanRead]

It's a really great festival, it's nice sometimes to get away from the madness by heading up in to the hippy healing fields :-) thanks for watching

[@L20FILMS]

Nice doc Dean - great insight to festival - confusing why you hid your'e Reg at end ? haha - LIVERPOOL UK

[@DeanRead]

+L20FILMS Hi mate, force of habit i'm afraid. I usually make videos of walking and camping so didn't want my / mrs car to be recognisable when i'm parking them up in the Peak District etc :-)

[@solsland]

Great blog Dean, catches the spirit of the festival well.

[@DeanRead]

+Andrew Kingsland thanks for watching Andrew, we managed to get tickets in the resale for this year so will have a 2017 video too :-)

[@MrJamers3]

Awesome video! makes me want to go more than I already do!

[@DeanRead]

Thanks for watching

[@GoonieBushcraft]

Awesome Deano!!! The whole thing looked amazing! I'd love to go one year. Looked like you had a great time. And meeting Kryten and Bez! Awesome man! : )

[@DeanRead]

Thanks Bez, it's a really great place and I loved every moment of it. Bobbyllew is a legend so I'm glad I got to say hello to him :-)

[@seanc4wwe]

brings back some serious memories, what a week that was! great video

[@DeanRead]

My favourite year to date, loved it. Fingers crossed we'll have more luck for tickets in the resale for 2016

[@jackpearson7717]

Quality this! Having missed the UK Festival Summer while being in Australia for a year (can't particularly complain) this has me massively excited for this summer. Great stuff Dean!

[@DeanRead]

+Jack Pearson Thanks for watching Jack, we were in Oz for a month in August. Hope you have a great summer

[@Charlotte-jw4hn]

My boyfriend and I had agreed to have a year off. Now we've missed out on buying tickets I am frantically trying to WIN tickets. What was I thinking! A year off Glastonbury?! Madness. This video has just made me tear up at the prospect of not going this year. Such a beautiful place.

[@DeanRead]

+cbelleblog I'm not going be able to handle it this year when the coverage is on TV, I think I might go abroad or disappear in to the Scottish Highlands so I can get jealous of everyone there :-) thanks for watching, hope you manage to get there some how

[@Charlotte-jw4hn]

+Dean Read yes do it! Have a nice relaxing break far far away from it haha. Luckily I don't have television so can't watch it that way!

[@DeanRead]

+cbelleblog I have FoMo I think, Fear of Missing out :-) need to be as far away as possible and have nothing to do with it haha

[@tomkelly3779]

Dean, your video has just peaked my excitement levels! Sad to see you didnt get tickets, but better luck next year man!

[@DeanRead]

+Tom Kelly hi Tom thanks for watching, I hope you have a great time this year. We were gutted that we didn't get tickets but we are going climbing in Ireland as a consolation prize now so it's all good :-)

[@tomkelly3779]

Sounds great mate. My Dads a paddy, truly a beautiful country. I was supposed to be doing the three peaks this weekend but I've dropped out! Good luck with tickets next year - We got lucky - A random Scouse man got in and bought us them in the resale. See you next year =)

[@emmascally3592]

Defiantly gonna be going to Glastonbury one day only live 5 minutes away from it :)

[@DeanRead]

Thanks for watching, hope you get to go

[@floatingonmercury]

I was watching this to bring back some glasto mems, didn't expect to spot myself in the CND tent. I wonder what I was laughing at! ahahahah

[@DeanRead]

+floatingonmercury thanks for watching, will you be there again this year with CND? We didn't get tickets but I have my fingers crossed for the next one :-)

[@MCSmartboy]

Great film, really nice!

[@DeanRead]

+Martin Curtis thanks for watching Martin :-)

[@philharris2332]

Great video, will be going next year for the 4th consecutive time. I'd recommend volunteering for oxfam next year seeing as you didn't get tickets. I did it in 2014 and you see the festival in a completely different way but it's just as good as attending normally. It would make for a great vlog too, as there aren't many videos showing "behind the scenes" of glasto. Then again, theres always the resale!

[@DeanRead]

I'd be interested in seeing the other side of the festival too so it might be an option to explore. Thanks for watching and I hope you have a great time next year, fingers crossed we'll get lucky in the resale

[@grahampar]

Thanks Dean. Good luck in the resale!

[@DeanRead]

Thanks Graham, I'm guessing it won't be long until there is an announcement about the dates for the resale

[@halcyondaystunes]

Great video mate, i've been to most festivals here in the UK but never Glastonbury, I've been in the Pyramid Stage field one winter but that's another story but hoping to go for my first one in 2019.

[@grahampar]

Hi Dean. I'm a 67 yr old who's been going to Glasto for several years now! I've only just come across your video of the 2015 festival and I thought I'd let you know that you've really captured the sights, sounds and feelings you get when you're there! I loved every minute of it, thanks! Was it all shot on an iPhone by the way? See you at Worthy farm in June.

[@DeanRead]

Hi Graham, this video was all shot on an iPhone 6 Plus and edited with iMovie. I really love Glastonbury, sadly we don't have tickets yet for 2016 but fingers crossed we get lucky in the resale. Hope you have a great time this year and thanks for watching

[@stuartgrieve44]

Excellent film, really enjoyed it. Thrilled that you included some of my favourite acts like Biggles Wartime Band and Showhawk Duo (I think that's my multicoloured hat in front of you 😉). Good luck in the resale, hope you get one so I can enjoy your 2016 film next year to get me in the mood for 2017 (if the ticket fairies still like me)

[@DeanRead]

+Stuart Grieve thanks for watching Stuart, 2015 was a good year. fingers crossed we both get lucky with the tickets next time, I'd happily go every year :-)

[@stuartgrieve44]

+Dean Read +Dean Read just watched again to get me in the mood for the main event in a couple of weeks, still brilliant and loved it. Were you guys lucky in the resale ?

[@DeanRead]

Stuart Grieve hi Stuart, sadly we didn't have any luck in the resale. I hope you have a great time, I'll be thoroughly jealous :-) thanks for watching again

[@stuartgrieve44]

+Dean Read damn sorry to hear that, cannot imagine your pain 😞 on a selfish note I will miss your film this year, will have to rely on BBC who always miss the true essence of the festival 😡

[@JourneymanHandcraft]

Cracking Job Dean, definitely a festival I'd like to get to at some point :)

[@DeanRead]

Thanks for watching mate, I've got the Glastonbury bug now so would happily go every year if we can get tickets

[@festivalfreak]

Great work. Thanks for sharing.

[@DeanRead]

+Daniel Strickland thanks for watching Daniel

[@mcfcrusssinfin6371]

its on my things to do before I die list going to Glastonbury, i've done a few festivals, Leeds, Isle Of Wight, V fest many times, Global Gathering but there's something about Glasto that I really want to experience, thanks for sharing Dean

[@RandomButtonPusher]

Far better than any of the "news" coverage I saw coming out of the festival. I was relieved early on to see you weren't in totally uncivilized surroundings when you went by a Cornish pasty shop. Now that Lisa has done two BBC interviews, I think she can qualify as a "media pundit" or TV analyst for the panel shows -- "cultural critic" perhaps?

[@DeanRead]

Lisa doesn't drink or do any mind altering substances so she could be the BBC's compos mentis festival correspondent :-) I drink too much coffee to think straight at the best of times haha. Thanks for watching mate

[@shaimakadri9190]

Im watching this and Im crying my fucking eyes out. No justice, no dream.

[@DeanRead]

+Shaima Kadri same here, we didn't get tickets this year so I'm absolutely gutted :-(

[@Ozzymandias33]

Great stuff.

[@DeanRead]

+Andrew Crory thanks Andrew

[@Tubekeny1]

Nice work. Don't forget to send the BBC an invoice :)

[@DeanRead]

Haha :-) yeah she probably should have sent an invoice. Thanks for watching Ken

[@andyuk36]

Great video will be making my 4th apperance at Glasto next weekend ...........The best rock'n'roll show on earth

[@PaulFreeman1]

Great video - I missed the chance to goto Glasto in the 90's - I don't feel the need to go now - Belladrum Festival is a small Scottish version of it and does the job for me each year. That said, there is something different about Glastonbury and your video does a great job of capturing it. Hope you are enjoying OZ

[@MrTommyn147]

Great job

[@DeanRead]

Thanks for watching :-)

[@timstewart311]

looks amazing mate what camera did you record this on? really think your vids are pretty interesting as you explain aswell as give that bit of knowledge :-) Quality

[@DeanRead]

Cheers for watching mate, I used my iPhone 6 plus to film this one

[@JCisJD]

There have been rumours the festival is moving to a new location. What can you say about that? The deal on the year off is we're planning a show - another event - somewhere nearby. It's either going to be in 2018 or 2019. It's going to be the whole team behind the Glastonbury Festival but it's not going to be called Glastonbury. The idea [is to plan] an event which is more of a visual feast, something really spectacular, using all of these incredible creative people that we work with all year. That's an idea that really excites us. So will it be more of an immersive experience than a music festival? It will be a music festival predominantly but it will have other elements which we already do at Glastonbury. There'll be more, larger-scale installations, as well as music. You know, we work with these artists all year, but we're always confined by the same hedgerows. The idea of doing it somewhere else, where you've got a huge, vast space is hugely exciting.

[@ThePogle]

Good film

[@DeanRead]

+Martin Smith thanks for watching Martin

[@JonathanJonesA]

Great video. Hope you got a ticket for 2017 :)

[@DeanRead]

+Jonathan Jones sadly not :-) thanks for watching Jonathan

The Glastonbury Festival - 2015

[@markjickells1879]

Look forward to seeing how you came out the other end. Changed or challenged....

[@DeanRead]

Mark Jickells I came out inspired by the Dalai Lama to live a simple / happy life and to eliminate worry and stress from my life :-)

[@WyeExplorer]

Dean Read Couldn't agree more. I hope you find that place that's devoid of fear. The fear and stress I've experienced in life has been like having my finger in the plug socket. It's why I dance and go outdoors. Same for you know doubt. ATB Mark.

[@DeanRead]

WyeExplorer when in Asia my friend Ray and I witnessed a spectacular sunrise through the door of a Buddhist temple. I'd been reading up on Buddhism in the months leading up to it and that moment as we stood there whilst the monks meditated behind us was a mini awakening for me. Life is too short to worry, crave and go about mindlessly consuming. Attempting to simplify my existence and get my priorities right

[@DeanRead]

Mark Jickells Just watched your full moon video, stunning stuff. really need a night like that myself too. thank you for sharing it with us.

[@daveparkes9063]

Boss vid lad, perfectly executed. Captures the essence of what the Glastonbury Festival is all about. This is the vid to show newbies who have never been before. Nice 1 m8 😁

[@DeanRead]

+Dava Parkes Thanks for watching, we've just been packing our kit for Glastonbury 2017 :-) Dan't wait. Should have another video from this years festival

[@daveparkes9063]

Dean Read Nice one, I'll be packing most of my stuff tonight & the rest tomorrow. It's doubtful I will see you, but if I do I will say hello. I will look forward to your vid on my return, have a great one Dean. Stay safe m8! 😁

[@DeanRead]

+Dava Parkes same to you mate, have a great festival 👍😎

[@JCisJD]

It was a pleasure to watch your vid, you Just let allot speak for itself! I find less is more with these vids, so many people think they have to fill it with commentary, so nice one Dean.:) I haven't been since 2002 and first 1 in 1998 so thought I would watch a few vids to catch up on things, Im performing there this time so should be another interesting perspective of, what I remember being, a show of other worldlyness (I just remember reality just stopped for 4 days) be interesting to experience it now, shame pulp arnt going to be there but I can reminisce on Fat boy and cold play ;) Maybe see you there in future years or at the new festie they are going to put on, I would like to get involved in that one, have you heard about it?

[@DeanRead]

+JCisJD I've heard the rumours of a possible move, will be a shame to move it from there... Will it be the same without the stone circle? :-) good luck with your performance too. I have watched a few other videos from Glastonbury over the years so I thought I would make mine more about the atmosphere. I can waffle on for hours but I didn't think it needed it so I cut a bit of it out :-) Thanks again for watching

[@JCisJD]

+Dean Read Yep well learnt, it was the atmosphere I was after ;) Ah yes the stone circle great to get up high (ish) and just go wow im apart of that etc and chill a little. But they are not moving altogether just in a rest year, going to put on another show "without hedgerows" so not so limited, want to make it more arts based but still with music, still going to be local. looks like its going to happen in 2018/19. Could be interesting as in ; "anything could happen in the next moment" kind of thing;) I think people really like that about festies. Have you been to Port Elliot festie in st germans Cornwall (end of august) . Its only small but great location and really well put together? I recommend it if you want a bit of a glasto fix but on a river and some woods. Many lagit ways of getting in as well.

[@JCisJD]

+Dean Read porteliotfestival.com/

[@DeanRead]

+JCisJD it'll be interesting to see what happens in the years to come with Glastonbury, I must admit I'd quite happily go even if there was no music on at all :-) I'll have to check out the Port Elliot festival and tell my girlfriend about it. Rivers and Woods sounds good to me.

[@DeanRead]

+JCisJD Thanks for the link

[@frogmoonwildcampsandwander9354]

Captured your view of Glastonbury very well it changes year by year only old photos of the place mesen love to share them wi you round a campfire onenjght

I'm gutted that we didn't manage to get tickets for 2016, would really love to go again and hopefully we'll get lucky in the resale in April :-) thanks for watching

Great film Dean, it helps for a first timer Glastonbury Goer like me & my friends. .. One question though ¿what camera did you used? Did they let you in with a professional camera?

[@DeanRead]

+Monterrey 360 hi there thanks for watching. I just used my iPhone 6 Plus to film this one. I normally use a Canon 7d but didn't take that to Glastonbury. I took my Canon in 2014 though and no one said anything so I'm sure you'll be fine to take one. Hope you have a great time

[@Mty_360]

+Dean Read thanks Dean!

[@DeanRead]

+Monterrey 360 no worries, we have our fingers crossed for the resale as we don't have tickets for this year yet

[@Mty_360]

+Dean Read Hope you grabbed them!!! And cheers from MX

[@FixedPixelYT]

5th time lucky for me, though you won't mind missing out in the resale if the weather is as bad as it was last year :)

[@DeanRead]

+Damo very true, I was glad we weren't there when we heard stories of people stuck in their cars for 24 hours trying to get in :-)

[@DeanRead]

+Damo thanks for watching Damo, we managed to get tickets in the resale so I'll be making a another video this year too :-) can't wait

[@FixedPixelYT]
