What would you suggest to them.

Aside from the; 'get band X to play'

Never change

But more entertainment on the Wednesday and Thursday but I think this will happen anyway.

Loving it!

Why would I give them advise? They've been running a successful festival for 40 years.

Other than get some metal bands on.

Please let me use your spare room to stay in for a few days as I find camping very painful...

Don't be afraid to deviate from mainstream music for the headliners, main stage etc.

It would keep the true Glasto lovers and get rid of the rest lol!

Don't let a little thing like the Olympics put you off!

My advice would be... dont do what was aparent (and reported) in previous years and try to get (for the main stages) a younger crowd, an older crowd, or aim the festival at anyone inparticular so it 'competes' with other festivals.
You have the best festival in the world... just book an exciting mix of bands and the people will come.  They always have and always will.

And a big thumbs up to george424 for posting a superb thread.  good work!

Get the t wats that drive the forklifts and tractors not to just park up and stop on the main pathways. It's a major health and safety issue, my missis and 3 year old had to actually climb through one last year because of crowd blockage either side. It's even worse on muddy years, more traffic enforcement please. Speeding's an issue as well, old bill and ambulance are sensible but security speeding to find a fence jumper or drug dealer through crowds of thousands is unforgivable. A nutter with a machine gun, fair enough, anything less then it's just plain stupid.

Apart from that, keep the sponsorship at a minimum, keep oxfam stewarding, keep it going! Keep the love!

I think he means lose the gloves, the gloves come out in any weather. I shook his gloved hand in 30+ degrees last year, either he's paranoid or got to such an old stage in life that he's always freezing cold.
