No Rock And Roll Fun

FESTERING FESTIVAL DISCONTENT: Locals are apparently threatening to sue the Glastonbury Festival after what they claim was an invasion, according to BBC News Online. As reported at the time, the main problem with the tight-as-a-drum fence keeping those judged to be undesirable or poor out was that it left those people outside for the community to deal with - which some might think a slightly Tory way of dealing with problems. The end result was that while inside the festival all was mellowness and polite commerce, outside the villagers had what seems to have been the roughest deal ever. Micahel Eavis is currently saying he won't allow a 2003 festival unless the problems for locals can be overcome - although it's unlikely that his new partners at Mean Fiddler will be happy to see the festival suspended, so it looks like more fences, then.
