Stonehenge Summer
Solstice
A celebration
of life - standing amongst the towering stones with 30,000 others
watching the sun rise on the magical midsummer morning.
It's great to be able to stand inside the sacred circle of sarsens
as our ancestors did as dawn appears over the Heel Stone - much
better than from behind a fence. A traditional way to celebrate
the longest day of the year.
There's
an amazing communal excitement at the solstice sunrise as
the spiritual ancestry of this prehistoric temple is celebrated
- with whoops of joy, drumming, horn blowing, cheering and
applause...it makes you feel good to be alive.
This re-enacting
of an ancient ceremony brings a mystical link, stretching
right back through the aeons of time, producing almost a
celebratory communion with our ancestors.
The mighty stones seem to breathe...

Glastonbury Festival
The experience
- 3 days of seeing how good life can really be - full of
music, colour and fun. You don't want it to end - although
a shower and a clean loo would be nice!
No other festival attracts such a mix of generations - children
frolic in the Kidz Field, ageing hippies recount their festival
tales, everyone enjoys the atmosphere. No other festival raises
so much for charity. Glasto is essentially all about people and
will never be just a pop festival.
It isn't only music - it is the lifestyle we dream of - free
from worry and work - chilling out in the sunshine, or the leafy
Glade or lying amongst the stones in the Sacred Space.
Its knowing there's something exciting round every corner - theatre,
circus, poetry, new bands, legendary bands, comedy, cinema, dance
vibes, jazz, acoustic and it's there all day and all through
the night...if music be the food of love - play on...and on...

3. Duirwaigh
The
name, in Gaelic, means 'doorway'. There is a lovely free
film - 'A
knock at the door', beginning with the question,
'When was the last time you...?' It is evocative with rich artwork
and lilting Irish music - 'go on - leap, soar, explore - when imagination
knocks - open the door.' |
