Glastonbury Reviews

I'm writing about Glastonbury. Not the festival, but the town. Glastonbury is known as the Vale of Avalon. It used to be an Island town many years ago, with the surrounding land flooded.

Wow. My God. I was what we English call, a Festival Virgin. And then I went to Glastonbury. Glastonbury 2000. Wow! I can't even begin to describe it, even though I'm supposed to. It's indescribable! It was better than fantastic, it really was so much more! If you're getting bored already, just take this one ...  Read the complete review
