If Lilly Allen was genuineley concerned about those living in war zones, she shouldn't make stupid, ill-informed comments that encourage people to use coke, fuelling violence and exploitation in the third world.

This is a sad day! Ron and Iggy practically invented Punk. I agree with dannypal - The Stooges stole the show at Glasto '07 & put most of the younger bands to shame. RIP Ron.

Glastonbury fans offered new chance to register

Demand forces organisers to give festival-goers second opportunity

Eavis has doe the right thing. 30,000 spare tickets makes a shortfall of about £4.5 milion quid, which would make the festival less tennable for the future: they'd be less able run the site and less able to secure good bands. As for the popularity of the festival, my first glasto was 1998 and they were selling tickets until early June (at the time, the slow sales was put down to the football world cup that was on at the time). Since then Glasto has become a lot more popular: with good reason, it's bigger, better run and safer; with only a few small concessions to commercial pressures. A small decline in the rate of ticket sales is pretty trivial, in my opinion. Long live Glaso!
