It's become corporate and tied-in to fashion. On top of the cost of tickets and premium prices for food and drink I sense a pressure to splash out on a new festival outfit, maybe a new tent and a new pair of wellies every year. Too many people there who simply want to 'tick the box' and say they've done Glasto !

Aging hippy who thinks he's cool with festival die-hards
But, to me, a corporate mogul who has made a fortune on the back of this festival.
As The Sex Pistols used to say.....'Never Trust A Hippy'
Oh, and before all the smart arses pull me up, I KNOW Joe Strummer's connection with the event and that The Sex Pistols played there a few years ago

The West London of my youth is now on dvd


I've met the man on the street............and he's a cunt

Someone close to your heart also spoke about the industry 'turning rebellion into money'.
