Glastonbury 2008: Not quite as popular

Last year’s Glastonbury took TWO hours to sell out. Believe me, it’s true. I tried get a ticket, but just found myself stuck in an endless cycle of refreshing browser windows. It was so tough, I actually fell asleep.

This year’s Glastonbury festival – held, as always, in June – doesn’t appear to be quite as popular. Tickets didn’t sell out when they went on sale on Sunday and today registration for the festival reopened. All attendees need to first register for tickets, including providing a photo, and then will they be allowed to buy the tickets themselves. (All  to do with beating the touts.)

Approximately 100,000 out of a possible 137,000 tickets sold on Sunday. I’ve just accessed both the registration site and the ticket site, and neither gives any indiciation that tickets are sold out. So now’s your chance – do it! As long as you like Jay-Z, that is. *rolls eyes*
