and if you're re-selling tickets on eBay, watch out!
Tuesday 1st April 2003
With all tickets for this years Glastonbury Festival having sold out in just 24 hours, Michael Eavis has been telling us just how pleased is to have sold out the event - without the line-up being announced!
Although he recognised that some of the line-up is known, and will have encouraged some to buy that may not otherwise have, he also felt other factors had helped the quick sell, such as the great weather yesterday and people being less happy to travel because of the war. Glastonbury Festival is a ray of light in a sometimes grim world!
Michael was quite unhappy to hear about the number of tickets already being offered for sale - for ridiculous money - on eBay. He told us that eBay and the main ticket agents are working together to deny the tickets to those who are re-selling. As well as that, tickets won't be sent out until very shortly before the Festival, so there will be no time for someone to receive them, and then sell them on. You have been warned!!!!
And he also re-enforced the important message that the environmental damage caused by the Festival has to be reduced. The pollution of the stream running through Worthy Farm is unacceptable, and is putting future festivals in doubt. The following weren't his words, but this is what he means: DON'T PISS IN THE HEDGES!!!. Yes, that means YOU too!
The line-up will be released in June. In the meantime check out the most up-to-date and accurate rumours available anywhere - click here - don't accept poor imitations!
