Glastonbury diary – part 1

We got to the festival on Thursday evening and set up camp in the Park area. In the past I have camped in the ‘public’ camping areas to be with my friends, but last year I had such a crazy time (my tour manager was taken ill the night before so I was dragging my gear through the mud in a complete daze) so this year I opted for the artist campsite!

SO day one, Friday, and I woke up knowing that today I was going to achieve one of my personal ambitions - to play the Pyramid Stage. I vowed I would do this when I first came to the festival in 2005. I had been invited to do a guest spot with singer songwriter Get Cape. Wear Cape. Fly. I had no idea what we were going to do.

The crowd that had gathered to watch the set was massive. I’m talking make your whole body tingle every time they cheer massive.

The view from onstage as I watched the first half of the show was incredible. I start to feel a massive release of adrenaline…

In a flash it is all over. I have played the Pyramid!
