Sipperana Posted December 22, 2008 Report Share Posted December 22, 2008 I find it hard to believe that last year was the first time Glastonbury hadn't sold out. It didn't even break even as a festival till the early 80s. They forgot to mention about the Kings of Leon also being relatively crap. Is this the nearest Eavis is going to get to apologising for and retracting his comments about too many old people being at Glastonbury?

3puddings Posted December 22, 2008 Report Share Posted December 22, 2008 What a bunch of w*nk!! That's been the rumour for AGES to anyone paying attention and visiting this site, it's hardly an exclusive. I found that last comment extremely irritating too in an "I told you so" Kind of way. This is why I don't read the sun! ARGH! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brizzle Posted December 22, 2008 Report Share Posted December 22, 2008 "And Eavis’s bid to bring the glory back to Worthy Farm gets my backing one hundred per cent." just because of 3 headliners? what a prick. i bet he was the 1st to jump on the anti glasto bandwagon last year.

marktea Posted December 22, 2008 Report Share Posted December 22, 2008 This guy is useless. Like many journos he seems more concerned about self justification and axe grinding than straight reporting. Even when splashing a story that is already widely known about, he cannot resist getting in a dig. But then it's not too hard to see why he still has to bang on about so-called headliner problems when he contibuted to much of the fuss with rubbish stories like this. If he didn't understand why it was ok (and, as it turned out, a stroke of genius) to have Jay-z as a headliner then he doesn't understand what makes Glastonbury so great. But then again, as many have pointed out, it is The Sun after all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scudetto_boy Posted December 30, 2008 Report Share Posted December 30, 2008 The Sun is arguably the worst "newspaper" in europe!! Therefore, why do so many of the British public buy it daily!?

harper11 Posted December 30, 2008 Report Share Posted December 30, 2008 even the times had some vague refernce to jay z headlining and RIP glastonbury this week Jay Z wasnt "a stroke of genius" more an act of desperation he was OK I hope the neil young rumours are wrong i cant take neil and bruce as two pyramid headliners one or the other...or play on the same night Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

benisright Posted December 30, 2008 Report Share Posted December 30, 2008 I don't think most people who buy it, believe it. People buy it because it's easy to read and entertaining(people find others strange, unhappy, alternative lives and stories funny even when they know it isn't true). It's similar with chart music, simple and entertaining(even if it isn't that great). Nothing to do with intelligence, some people don't want to read about the economy, politics, culture etc too much effort and time. Anyway do you speak all 23 official languages in Europe? No. Have you seen all the 100's of large newspapers, forgetting the 1000's of local papers? No, so 'The Sun' cannot be argued to be the worst. It's almost the worst in the UK but I'd give that award to 'The Daily Star', there is bound to be some seriously bad ones in Europe that slap both of them into the 'educated, cultured' bracket.

Kyelo Posted December 30, 2008 Report Share Posted December 30, 2008 Your forgetting the sport and the mail. They are worse. Even if the daily sport isnt much of a newspaper. Das Bild is pretty bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chocscoffer Posted December 30, 2008 Report Share Posted December 30, 2008 The S*n (In the words of the nan off the Catherine Tate Show) is a "load of old shit" Sloppy, lazy journalism. I expect nothing more than that from this piece of shit! I mean, how long have those rumours been on here? Neil believed those were the headliners a while back.

scudetto_boy Posted December 30, 2008 Report Share Posted December 30, 2008 True, the Mail is a very poor newspaper & ironically, it's most the middle classes who buy it i.e. a section of society we consider to have sense. However, the Mail is very conservative & the Brits are in many respects, so we shouldn't be surprised so many people buy it :\ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
