frak me there is some insipid feature on glastonbury chic onn bbc2 now
it sums up all that has gone wrong with this festival, its full of middle class posh kids and overpaid IT/ city boy 30somethings with huge bags of coke and egos out the arse
its all because radio 1 especially has turned it into some kind of national coolfest thats become uber trendy and a must do in our celeb worshiping vacuous excuse for a culture
compare this to back in the day, over 50% jumped the fence travelers hippys, everywhere off their nuts on acid and extasy feelin love for everyone- the dance tent is a pathetic joke compared to the rave scene days, scallys and students, folkies a true cross section of alternative society ok it was dangerously overcrowded tents got robbed (but no one had iphones then anyway) and the toilets -whoooaaa!
but it was an amazing eyepopping mind expanding experience
and trekster a live gig at a festival, the size and atmos of the crowd the mistakes the little bits they add in its so much more than listening to it on your ipod
