That too!

Is B&W even big enough? I don't know it that well, presumably it is if they're considering it.

240 acres of flat land with a number of tarmac roadways and permanent halls....so a quarter of the size of the Worthy Farm site with no character whatsoever. I suppose they could extend by renting land from neighbours but who's to say they wouldn't be asking for barrowloads of cash too....then there's rental of the main site from the B&W Society to add to that...at least ME owns a fair chunk of the current site.

I don't see it happening....and if it does GF loses much of the identity that makes it special. Ironic then that the demise of the Festival could occur in the very place that the inspiration for what it became took place.....

Maybe they could organise another festival elsewhere, with a lot of the same stuff, but it wouldn't be Glastonbury and it should try to have it's own identity. For instance, it shouldn't have a Pyramid Stage.

they should organise one in Glastonbury and call it the Pilton Pop Festival.

Another site? Would be a weird move to see happen, would quite something to see it if they did what they brought with them etc.

The fallow year idea, could be like the birth of something smaller? Sort of like a Glastonbury without all the main stages etc?

    • Another one from Sheffield DocFest this weekend, Earth Wind & Fire docu, directed by Questlove. Sensational archive footage, contributions from band members, family, plus a lot of very big fans (Stevie, Lionel, Flea, the Obamas) and a warts n all assessment of the genius / flawed human being that was Maurice White. Also, I never realised he started out as a jazz drummer with Ramsay Lewis. Well worth a watch.
    • In a 6,800-word Substack essay, external, the Clacton MP said "anti-white racism was embedded into the state", and that legislation aimed at equality was a form of "social cleansing"   .https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cdjkd4mp93zo   The privileged white c**t hasn’t got a clue what racism is. 
    • BBC iPlayer: Will serve as the main hub for past sets, including both recent hits and iconic archival gems.

[1] Radio & BBC Sounds: Pop-up Glastonbury radio stations on BBC Sounds will feature non-stop coverage, including exclusive mixes and huge sets from past years
