A small town in Somerset, England, next door to the county Dorset. Its a very pretty, historic town, and is well known for the glasotnbury tor, up on the hill. This hill can be seen for miles around Glastonbury, which leads on to the famous Glastonbury festival. The festival is locatedin Pilton, about 2 miles from Glastonbury, but you can see the tor from the festival, and as it is the closest prominant town to the festival,so it takes its name. the festival is an amazing place, like a city that springs ups from nowhere for a couple of days per year. the green fields host the more traditional festival, most like when the festival first started, as a gathering on mr Michael Evis's land, with healing and meditation tents, and the tipi field is such a tranquil place. around the main pyramid stage, where the more commercial side of the festival lies, is completely different. still an amazing atmosphere, with everybody just happy to be there. on wednesday and thurday at the festival, before the music starts is good wil all round, and random cheers through the crowds start up and travel all around the festival site. all in all, the festival appeals to such a wide range of people, original traditional grass roots festival goers and people who prefer to spend there time around the dance village.
I had an amazing time at glastonbury this year, people say its overrated, but only when you've been can you know the sheer diversity that it holds.

Get the glastonbury mug.When a festival/outdoor music concert turns into a mud pit, like at Glastonbury.
"We almost got Glastonburied. That's what you say, right? When something just turns into a mud pit. Glastonburied, the verb. But you have an awesome time with your friends, but you're covered in mud." - Win Butler of Arcade Fire at their gig in Hyde Park, London. 30/06/11

Get the Glastonburied mug.A long-running Bristish music festival, which happens once a year in the summer for three days. The weather is typically rainy and the ground is often muddy. Magic Mushrooms are popular there.

Get the glastonbury mug.Where someone manages to go for days without pooing at a music festival to avoid the toilets and their dreadful conditions

Get the Glastonbury Tailback mug.The Glastonbury festival is a huge music festival taking place on a farm during the summer in the UK, it is notorious for getting rained on, and the whole festival ground becoming waterlogged and muddy.
So the Glastonbury tan is where the festival goers get brown all over due to being caked in mud.

Get the Glastonbury Tan mug.using moist towelettes as a replacement for running water. so-called due to its popularity at music festivals (particularly at Glastonbury due to the fact that it will inevitably rain causing everyone and everything to become caked in mud and sewage)
similar to the Glasgow shower except that the dirt is actually removed rather than covered up with deodorant

after a hard night filled with partying and substance abuse, followed by sleeping in a damp sweaty tent, a quick Glastonbury Shower provides a much-needed 'burst of freshness'

Get the Glastonbury Shower mug.A rich prissy concieted suburb from Hartford, CT so brimming full of puritan wealthy stuffy white folks (its worse than Greenwich). There are 2 people that are not white in the entire town. Everyone owns a nice brand spankin new car at age 15 (before they can drive-so they can break it in). Their high school is 6 times the normal size (just because it can be). They have 12 thousand sports teams (because everyone plays a sport or your nobody) and they all have swimming pools filled with fifties.
