It sold out in 3 hours this year despite tickets costing £125 (about $240) and with the line-up yet to be announced. Supposedly 2 million were chasing the 112,000 tickets. I've been a few times, and it's always been excellent, with something for everyone - a big pyramid stage with major acts on it (last year it had Paul McCartney, Oasis, Muse, James Brown, Morrissey etc), a John Peel stage for left-field bands, a Jazz stage, a dance tent, comedy tent and a bunch of other stuff. It's huge, with something for pretty much everyone. Here's a bit of history: http://www.glastonburyfestivals.co.uk/aboutus/index.asp?id=38 Trader Woody
