Im with 'mansunthemonkey' its getting a bit boring all this talk of Jay-Z headlining Glastonbury. I know for sure I'd be there this year (just like the past 4 Glasto's) if I wasn't in a different country right now. You go for the Glastonbury experience. And with new small stages springing up each year, for example The Park area last year, theres always going to be some act you will want to watch. I found several bands on at the same time last year for many of the slots throughout the days. So all those bad mouthing one headlining slot, it can't be the only reason your not going to Glastonbury. Although I agree Mr Jay-Z should of took a bit of a Black Eyed Pea's role and played just before another headliner, a bit like when he played Reading/Leeds fest in 2003. Come on its nothing new a rap act at a UK festival.
