Uh huh - got myself 4, only got the confirmation email at 2AM this morning after the website crashed after I put in my card details (but complained about duplicate registration numbers when I tried again) - something of a nervous wait!
I won't be going. Glasto's sold out to 'The Man' these days.
I used to go back in the 80s when it was 'proper'. Knee deep in mud and poo and drugs openly for sale. Bottles of piss being chucked about and you daren't eat anything on sale. These days it's £200 a ticket which includes electricity for your winnebago and people complain if the showers aren't hot enough or if the sushi bar closes early.
I like the way the organisers take all these steps to ensure people aren't 'ripped off' for tickets and then price them extortionately so they can do the ripping off.
Sold out Man!

Completely agree. My last Glastonbury was '93. There still are festivals out there that continue in the Glastonbury tradition before it sold out. The Levellers run one in the south-west somewhere that's supposed to be quite good. There's also Eastern Haze as well.
Just looked at their 2007 lineup and didn't recognise a single performer out of the hundreds they have listed. Just goes to show how uncool/sold out I am.

There are some oldies on there - Blockheads (as in Ian Dury and the), Space Ritual (Nik Turner from Hawkwind's side project), Ozric Tentacles (stalwarts of the festival scene since the mid 80s), Mother Gong (Daevid Allen and crew)...
