Janet Jackson has been around for a long time, TB. :-))

In the early days, Glastonbury was far more "cutting edge" and "alternative" for want of a better description. I'm sure there's still lots of good music there on the smaller stages but the event is just too big these days to interest me although I've never actally been.

I've got to the age where I actually prefer less choice at a festival. Sometimes it's better just to have one or two concerts happening at any one time albeit that there may still be an opportunity to attend several of them over a weekend. Of course, we still need variety but it's still possible to book several artists for such events and there are enough good musicians, singers, and bands that they don't all need to be back every year either.
