Obviously animals were allowed back in 1987.

Allowed might be a stretch. I think the travellers area was a bit more loose with rules. It may be my memory but I’m sure there was the odd dog about in 2000.

That's a dog peeing up against the wheel!! Obviously animals were allowed back in 1987.

That's a change for next year, bring your own pet!

Obviously a time before signing the Worthy pledge about peeing on the land was a condition of entry.

People may sound unimpressed, but I bet if you'd been able to hit the cars with bits of rebar it would have been a different story.

🤣 excellent. I think this went over his head.

Not Glastonbury but tge new stage announced for Reading/Leeds looks impressive with the mesh screen over the crowd. I wonder if we could see anything similar at Glastonbury?

Just watched that, it looks ace!

[DeanoL]

Reading and Leeds do that, Glastonbury puts a giant ball on a tower crane. Years ago that would have been the sort of innovation you'd see at Glasto first. 

[Pipine]

Maybe Glastonbury will have one too this year.. fingers crossed.. looks amazing!

and Glastonbury will likely have something new to replace the spider / crane that Reading dont have ... cant win them all 

[Joey Peeps]

Reading and Leeds being more innovative than Glastonbury has tickled me. Hope those fairy lights are designed to withstand the impact of several thousand airborne pints of piss.

[Memory Man]

Reading and leeds have corporate money and desperately need to sell tickets. glasto is held together with rubber bands and sells out in 5 seconds not exactly a surprise 😂

That's a bit unfair to be honest.  Aside from the fact this is new tech and R/L have done a press release now - they've not actually done it before, there's nothing to say that it's not on Glastonbury's radar and I don't see anything like IICON or The Levels at Reading/Leeds.

Yes! This is from Wilderness last year… Glasto would be perfect for this.
