Glastonbury 1984

[Staberinde]

My wife first went in '84 and the other day we came across the official programme.

So I thought I would share it for anyone that is interested.

It's in PDF form but be waned, it's over 40 mb, you'll have to wait a while while it downloads.

I needed the space, it's gone now :angry:

And they say the line-up is getting worse!

Paddy Ashdown even got a few minutes on the main stage. Good to see Billly Bragg was still playing even back then. Looking at the line-up, it's not a surprise that The Smiths set went down so well. I think that was the year when things started to change, and the line-up started to improve.

Excellent idea, I've always thought that these should all be available on an internet forum, I first went in 94, i've kept all of mine but would like to see the programmes, especially the timetables of the years prior to that.

Have to say, for all the bitching and moaning about the line ups, I preferred 2008's to 1984's. Interesting though. Anyone else care to scan every Glasto timetable ever and put them up for my amusement? Pleeeease?

[cornholio]

I see Freur played - they eventually became Underworld!!

[Funkfarley]

80p!!

80p!!

NO REALLY EIGHTY PEE - 80p!

Fascinating - thanks a lot for taking the time.

[Spliffman]

I think that some of the younger people should read this, and maybe they will then understand why Glastonbury is not just a music festival!

THanks that was very entertaining, keep up the good work

[Staberinde]

Hey, great ! Thanks for a appreciative response.

It was a pleasure.

Glad you all enjoyed it.

[Pinhead]

Any more programmes that you can publish?

[robith]

This has made me accutely aware I have no idea where my programmes are

[robith]

All those bands are old. What's there for the younger festival goer?

banter

[howard the oryx]

I beg to differ. Amazulu were there with their ironically titled hit 'Too good to be forgotten'.

[robith]

Adverts were a lot more direct back then weren't they?

No subtley imagery here, just "DO THIS"
