There's a new video of Vampire Weekend on YouTube which highlights the best moments of Glastonbury Festival 2008. The video is titled Glastonbury 2009 Official Registration Film and has the soundtrack of Vampire Weekend's 'Oxford Comma' recorded by the BBC in the John Peel Tent and also reprises some of the greatest moments of this year's Glastonbury Festival.

Festival organiser Emily Eavis picked the Vampire Weekend song as the soundtrack to the three minute film which features some of the key moments of this year's Festival, compiled from over 30 hours of live BBC broadcast, showing the Festival in all its many guises, both by day and by night.

The original version of 'Oxford Comma' by Vampire Weekend has already attracted over 600,000 hits on YouTube. The almost entirely 'mud free' Glastonbury of 2008, featured over 1000 bands on over a dozen main performance stages, and was hailed as "the greatest festival in our 38-year history" by organiser Michael Eavis.

Everyone who plans to the come the Festival must register, and that includes children aged 13, 14 and 15. Each ticket sold will feature a photograph of the person in whose name it is registered and will be non-transferable. So if you plan to buy tickets for friends or family you must make sure they all register!
