Go every year, the registration thing isn't a problem at all, can do it in seconds on line. Had a fab time, good to get back to mainly decent weather again. Never did go for the headline acts (would go to Reading or V for that) but love the whole scale of the thing. Spent hours wandering around the green fields, watching comedy, theatre etc as well as some quite obscure acts. I agree that it has become far more corporate than when I first went 16 years ago but you can still avoid the worst of that. We go in a big group, this year with ages ranging from 1 to late 40s and there was plently for all of us. Found all this hype about tickets sales ridiculous, it's only in the last few years it's sold out, the first time I went I simply went into Andy's records and bought one over the counter in early June. It only became a mad rush when the likes of Radio 1 tried to claim it was their event! This year, a lot of people are skint and last year's weather was particularly bad. Anybody not going simply because if one act is missing the whole point of the festival. Had not wish to see Jay-Z but a lot of peole watched him, so fair enough.
