What's the best bit of advice you've given/received when it comes to Glasters?

Best advice I have received/given is NOT to wear your wristband on the same hand that you use in the loo

Don't accept drinks from strangers unless you make them have some first. And don't try and see everything, just chill.

don't take ANYTHING from strangers what so ever (meaning the usual stuff not hats/glasses/inflatables etc there fun to borrow ) Just not worth the risk

The long route round to the next stage is sometimes quicker and alot less stress free.

"meet you at Pyramid stage at 8pm" is the stupidest thing anyone has ever said, anywhere.

The best very specific bit of advice I was given was "Go see Los Mescaleros" in the year before Joe Strummer died.

In general, don't plan out every minute, leave some time to drift about a bit. Oh, and get a healing fields massage.... lovely.


re: wristbands - I take a needle and thread with me (Handy in case of tent damage) and sew the flappy ends up tidily.
