SO, Glastonbury has closed for another 365 days, and I watched nearly all of it on TV.

I can assure you, that this wasn't the way it was supposed to be. I should have been there too, but thanks to the fact that I go to bed with my hair wet, (apparently this gives you flu?) I have spent most of the weekend in bed. Which, in the beginning, didn't sound too bad. The previous years have been waterlogged, mud covered - which I don't have a problem with whatsoever, in fact it adds to the atmosphere - but, to see the sun and dry grounds of Pilton on the TV is sort of like seeing a lovely dress that you're not sure of, then leaving it on the rail, then seeing someone wearing it. But deep down, you know that you would have most definitely looked better than her. Thus, filling you with regret and bitterness.

So, say that I did have a lovely £175 ticket for the 2009 festival, what would I have seen, and most likely enjoyed you ask? Well, for one, Blur. The foursome's first Glastonbury appearance since 1998, proved to be a hit. The 24-song set list that closed the festival was a massive success with a majority of the 100,000 people who packed into the festival and the 1.9 million who watched it on BBC2. Myself, being one of the 1.9 million who watched the very few songs shown by the BBC.

Second, would have been Bruce Springsteen's 2.5-hour set. Definitely well worth the £3000 that it cost Michael Eavis for going over curfew. After reading the hundreds of reviews on the internet about his set – opinions by the lucky festival goers – it has been described as exhausting and someone has even mentioned needing a "stiff drink" to last through the set! How offensive. Someone who opened Obama's presidential campaign and has sold out so many stadiums worldwide, should people really be calling him exhausting, or should he be calling these people, if you can call them people, a bunch of killjoys with a drinking problem?

Next, Regina Spektor's amazing (if not unusual) Pyramid Stage set. Myself, being a supporter and fan of women in the music business, on hearing Spektor's first few songs over the (sometimes) half decent music system in work years ago; I have just fallen in love with her. There is so much feeling to her music. The lyrics, the piano; its just like being in your favourite day dream. When I heard that she has been asked to appear, I couldn't contain my excitement! From what I've seen and read, she didn't let Eavis down.

So, do I think it was worth the hefty £175?

To risk contracting swine flu, to see Jarvis Cocker embarrassed on stage by that one audience member who managed to sway security to get on stage, and to see the one and only Eddie Argos offend Kings of Leon and the millions of fans band (much to my amusement) by mimicking their number one hits and calling their lyrics 'pointless' in the middle of Art Brut's 'Slap Dash'?

Could you really put any price tag on any of the above?

Anyway must dash, the Flight of the Conchords have just started on BBC4; and I haven't missed an episode of the new series yet, and I'm not about to start now. Also, it's too hot in my room and it's making me want to close my eyes for 8 hours.
