Glastonbury is rubbish nowadays
Was great 20 years ago,
very anti-establishment now boring and very middle class looks so bad now (except for nice weather this year) |

How is it middle class? I'm sure the people who are there are enjoying it, so it's hardly rubbish.

What's the point in being 'anti-establishment' these days anyway? What exactly would it achieve?
It's a music festival. People are there to enjoy the music and have a good time |

I think it's gone horribly mainstream and commercial. Sold its soul.

Maybe I missed something, but when was it underground? Haven't they always had big name acts who are well known, not really alternative or cutting edge stuff?
I'm not a big fan of festivals. Camping in the mud with no real bathroom is not for me. It's also very boring to wait through all the bands and artists you don't like to see the few you do and then they only do a short set. I'd rather just go to a regular length concert by my favorite artist. Much less hassle and more enjoyable. |

Based on the fact that your user name comes from a more than 20 year old video game and the fact that I get that reference, I would wager that both of us are of such an age that we're not supposed to like festivals.
They are not for us. They are for young types. ![]() Have you had a look at the bored audience and the presenters of the show on BBC2 . |

You can't expect it to showcase the same acts, nor even the same kind of acts it did 20 years ago...otherwise it really would be 'stuck in the mud'! |
