glasto isnt for profit so they could literally never afford to do such a thing.

 

You don't think they could find a sponsor for the newer bands to cover a 1500 or so tickets so bands who are busting their balls to make it in the industry can afford to play? We aren't even talking about big numbers here in the grand scale of the festival

No they don't hence the petition. Glastonbury could totally make it happen, it would just mean trimming down on the amount of freebies and +1s they give to the bigger acts and to the fawning media they get in to cover the festival. 

 

 

 

 

It would mean trimming down the number of stages too.

I'm not sure how motivated the festival would be to do that, considering the many bands that play the festival in the current system. I'd understand if the festival started struggling to fill slots on stages, then that'd be a clear indicator that they'd have to do things differently, but they haven't got that problem. It's a supply and demand thing, really.

Did I say 12? I meant 24 hours! And it facilitates entertainment. The people who set up the Pyramid Stage aren't entertaining anyone, but they're certainly necessary. 

 

I was about to go full "Four Yorkshiremen" on you.

12 hours! 12 hours! Pah, in my day we did 24. And we were grateful!
