Demand forces organisers to give festival-goers second opportunity
Tue 08 Apr, 2008
it's a shame but i really don't think glastonbury will sell out this year. like a previous poster pointed out, all those who would have been interested would have already registered in the first instance.on a personal note, the only reason i'm not heading back to the fields of somerset is purely for financial reasons but there are many more.yes as roger off the who says the weather is a big problem. while it shouldn't, it does. there's so much to see, do and consume that you really have to be willing to lug yourself a long way to do it all. this is made so difficult by the foot of mud underneath you that you end up sitting in the tent or at a stage you really don't wanna be at.the line-up is another. an american rapper, an amazing band who only have three albums and lack the arena presence of muse or radiohead and a washed up british band riding on the wave of reformations. it doesn't bode well does it. yes they'll be surprise shows and probably bigger names playing prior to the headliners but as glasto takes the strange steps of not releasing the line-up before the sale of tickets no-one really knows what to expect.then there's the price. reading a bbc report yesterday that outlined the publics desire for sunny climes while taking in the sounds of their favourite acts has forced many to take the relative easy choice of spending less money and going abroad. i've wanted to do this for years. imagine, in spain, on a beach, watching radiohead, crazy! no contest really when up against wet somerset and a 400 suid bill to buy tickets and invest in spending money for the weekend.i will miss glastonbury this year. when you're broke perspectives become so much clearer.x
