So yeah...Glastonbury makes me want to clone myself a few times and buy a ticket to check out the awesomeness...
Jesus. That's a hell of alot of bands. See, this is why I don't think I'm gonna be able to go to Bonnaroo every year. There's just too many other great fests around the world that I want to attend. Glastonbury is one that I have to go to in the very near future. That's almost music overkill, if that's possible.
seirously??? id take the who, richie havens, and john foggerty. aside fromt that i dont see much of interest to me. there is atleast 19 fests that i like better in the good ole u s of a. to each their own. but to say that list is asserting europes festival dominance makes no sense to me. all good, 10klf, waka, gratefulfest, roo, gotv, mountain jam, etc... i dunno. different strokes for different folks i guess. but those euorpe fests seem like crap compared to what we get each year. imo that is. again to each their own.

ya your right on that. but europe asserting its festival dominance???? i think roo asserts world wide festival dominance every year. and all those jam fests dont hurt either. but again to each their own. i do love my jam. i am sure i am biased. but i think america holds the festival dominance belt. europe is second. althoguh with john butler playing all those austalian fests i might have to put them second. but im drunk and rambling. this isnt the thread for that. ;D
Oddly enough, the Who is probably the most mainstream act in that entire lineup. Dudewheresmyinforoo is all about more mainstream acts than you Danbird. (Please realize I'm referencing volumes of old threads here for that joke.)
Glastonbury has always been a festival I'd love to attend. All of those interesting artists with such an emphasis on the critical favorites over the obvious choices. There are giant, popular acts, sure-- but why book 100+ smaller ones unless you do give a crap about really cool, interesting music of all sorts. Variety is the spice of life and once again Glastonbury has it in ridiculous droves. Good for them, they've always been the grandpa Roo looked toward.
i agree rooskew. they are the most mainstream. but id still love to see them. not because i think they are putting on thebest shows of their career but because they are the who. im sure grab playng a 27 minute who are you at all good would far exceed anything the who actually plays but id still love to see them. mainstream or not. and i wouldnt label the who as "that" mainstream outside of the whole csi thing.
but i for sure dont wanna do the whole mainstream thing again. so im sure its an awesome festival. im sure id have a good time. but i dont think europe comes anywhere close to dominating us in fests. indie, jam, or otherwise.

i'm going where the sun keeps shining, thru' the pouring rain, going where the weather suits my clothes. backing off of the north east wind, sailing on summer breeze, and skipping over the ocean like a stone.
I'm so sad that I'm not going to see Chumbawamba acoustic...
In all seriousness, it looks great, but how long are those sets? And are all the top acts from each stage's list on at the same time? I don't think I'd get to see nearly as much music that I'd enjoy as I will at good ol' 'roo.
yea, not really. i mean, if you count the number of artists, they sure lead in that category. but quality over quantity. all i would wanna see there is the who, the marleys and damien rice and lisa hannigan playing the same stage, but not together? wow that must have beena bad breakup. and it's not even about mainstream againt indie. i have heard most of the higher up bands there and just dont like them. admittedly though, there are lots i have never heard of.
