Glastonbury tickets are still on sale so close to the beginning of the festival. Why is this when last year there was such a scramble to get tickets and they were gone within hours? Discuss.
I can not believe after all the fuss last year and the rush to get tickets that here we are one day before the festival begins and you can still purchase a ticket if you want to.
It seemed that there was the same rush this year as last year to get tickets- it is just that the number of people who are wanting to go to Glastonbury has obviously dropped dramatically.
I have always wanted to go to Glastonbury. I am a hippy at heart and I just think it would be really cool, man. But seriously, it always rains and because it is set in a field, it always gets muddy. I would not want to be the people in most of the photos my friends bring back when they go.
The real reason I have never gone though is the cost. I’m sure it is a great experience but I really just cold not afford it. And it is not just the price of the ticket that we are talking about- it’s the cost to get there in the first place. The wages you lose from taking time off work, which is inevitably a longer period than the actual festival, because you tend not to be able to move, talk or even think for a while afterwards.
But people rave about it. It must be brilliant. But if it was so brilliant last year, then why is it not sold out this year? Is it really because Jay-Z is headlining? Not who you would usually expect to see at Glastonbury, I know. But no reason to totally boycott the event, I think.
Although the line up this year is pretty good, I must admit that having seen that Rage are playing at Leeds and Reading this year and that Pendulum played at Download festival last weekend, I know where I would rather be going. I don’t suppose you are as likely to get bottled or set on fire at Glastonbury as you are at some of the others though., which can only be a positive thing.
Well, if you are going to a festival this summer I hope you have fun and don’t get rained on. Oh and don’t forget to respect the environment. Glastonbury has launched its “Love the Farm- Leave No Trace” scheme in an attempt to get you lot to tidy up after yourselves a bit. And no pissing in the river!
