The land is on a major flood plain though
And it does flood fairly regularly, there is no real value in building property on it. Add to that that if the festival did carry on there (which it could anyway) you'd be living next to a building site, festival for 2/3 months a year.
The value in the land is the festival.

Where did I say "you go for the vibe maaaan"
By bands are only a minute part of it, I mean there are comedy tents, theatre, circus etc. So if none of the bands appeal to you then go and have a look at one of the other fields and you might find something that does entertain you
It's the Glastonbury Festival of Perfoming Arts after all not the Glastonbury Music Festival.
If you're just after a music festival then you're probably right not to go.
First time?
Seriously, the bands are a minute part of the festival and if it's all you interested in, this may be the wrong place for you.
If there's nothing you want to watch go and have a wander, you might find something you love. Soak it all in not just the main stages.
It's good enough
There's enough there to give most people a few bands a day that they want to see and give you plenty of time to wonder around the rest of what's going on.
Ah, the Roebuck
Happy memories.....
So,
Odds on Muse returning the favour next summer and MCR playing the Wembley shows?
Wanna shoot the Mystery Jets?
Why couldn't the headline end there?
His comments
Of course have nothing to do with the fact that The Beatles album is outselling theirs.
What odds on them being
At Glastonbury next year then?
Great read
I can't help but think that the Monkey's winning this year is pretty much a direct kick back from the stick they got last year by giving it to Antony and the Johnsons.
You could almost see the story in the papers today if, say, Lou Rhodes had won over the people's favourites and I think they were looking to be more conservative as a result this year.

The thing is
With all the fuss of it not selling out quickly, the fact that they sold 100,000 tickets in a day - which is more than any other major UK festival can hold, happy to corrected.
So it's not exactly doom and gloom.
