Complaint - Too many good bands


Guest TomfromStroud

Recommended Posts

I'm new to this after-Glastonbury-complaints game, but I'd just like to express my concern at how many great bands there were at Glastonbury this year. I'm used to an amazing lineup, but this year's was exceptional, meaning I had to spend an awful lot of time walking to stages, then standing there to watch some of the best tunes that have ever been written, often with the sun on my back and almost always with a big smile on my face.

The problem is, this didn't leave as much time as I would've liked to wander aimlessly around the site finding all the beautiful surprises, stumbling across new bands on tiny stages and sitting about talking to people. I still devoted a big proportion of my day to this, but when I did I suddenly found I'd missed another few great bands all over the place.

So, a plea to those who book the bands for Glastonbury...please don't book so many of my favourite bands next year, try to go mainly for ones I haven't heard of yet, but would really enjoy, and then space them with enough time and distance between them for a nice wander.

Thanks!

I know the feeling the amount of favourite bands that I didn't get to see was unreal. Ironically though I had moments when I didn't have too much so luckily Sunday until Dolly time I was pretty free.
