Talkback The fact is that over the last couple years Glastonbury Festival has embraced the full force of the media 'hype' machine. What crap. Consequently everyone from 16 to 60 wants to go. No matter what system you have in place there will always be this...

Talkback OK, so it's now a lottery, run it like one. Give everyone a month to apply for sets of 4 tickets, cut out the duplicates then pick the first 112 000 out of the hat. At least I think that would make sense.

Talkback Mark, This is a lottery, however it does not weight people equally so is not really that fair. Sure I agree that Glasto is a victim of its own success and I prefered the days back in 1995 when I first went but until one of the other festivals even...

Talkback Right there with you.especially with the small batches going on sale at different times.even having some where you have to turn up in person (like the radio 1 events) so that people without phones or internet access can go and pay in cash.

Talkback I have been going to glastonbury every year since i was 10 - i'm now 23. Real glastonbury goers do not need reminding or to be told when tickets are on sale. I have been on the net and 3 phones since 8pm last night non stop it is now 13:30.

Talkback I'm sorry for the people who did not get a ticket, but with an estimated 2 million people after 104,000 tickets what can you do. OK the system did not hold up all that well, but if you had massive humungus bandwidth there would still be 1.9 million...
