To me the beauty of this forum is the meandering nature of the threads. Most threads will go way off topic- often encompassing politics, cheese puns and the weather. If a topic goes off in a direction that I don’t like or disagree with I will not read it until it gets back. Yes Glastonbury would sell out as a purely musical event, but that is not what it is. It has been about politics as well from the beginning. It was the CND festival for years, it has a whole area for recharging activism and ME has stood as a Labour candidate in elections. it’s what makes Glastonbury special. If we loose the political element, the Greenfields etc. we become another Coachella and who wants that?

Nice! Yeah, I've got programmes from all the years I've went, and also some from the 90s that I picked up here and there on eBay, have had in the back of my mind for a while to scan them. Only problem is, it's an absolute sod of a job to do it properly; Even after shearing off the spine to have loose pages to scan more easily, it still takes *ages* to scan a whole magazine. I've done it a few times before, couple of Radiohead magazines, computer magazines, and it's so much work that it puts me off... I might get into it, though, I've got 1994, 1995 and 1997 programmes sitting here, let's see if I can hustle up the energy at the weekend. Anything I scan I'll send your way for your site, too, save you doing it. Methodology, here's how I scan magazines; I cut the spine off with an EZ-Shear I have (https://floormart.co.uk/ez-shear-13-for-laminate-engineered-lvt/) and trim the pages down on all sides a bit so they fit on my scanner bed, then I scan each page in turn at super high-res 600dpi TIFF, then I put the scans in a folder, then I rename the scans so they are sequential (0001.tiff, 0002.tiff, etc), then I zip the folder, then I change the .zip filetype to .cbz (comic book reader format), then I upload the .cbz to archive.org and once uploaded they have various automatic scripts which process the .cbz and its files into a PDF, jpegs, text-only, etc. and you end up with a nice flippy-book of it on the archive.org page as well. Here's a Radiohead magazine I did in this way: https://archive.org/details/RadioheadComingUpForAirBook -
