I stopped going to Reading quite a few years back now. Years back you used to get a more mixed age group but now it's predominantly 15 to 18 year olds. OK I'm 40 now which does not help. I would still go to Glastonbury tho. I'v still not been to one so need to do so before it stops. I don't think they will be doing many more which is a shame, That's what Iv read somewhere anyway.
I did Reading in 92 (Nirvana year - awesome), a couple of Glastonbury in late 90s, and then TitP when I moved up here, but you're right, they do seem to be catering to a younger audience (who's parents are obviously loaded cos there's no way a student can afford the tickets and beer prices are extravagant). That's why I've moved onto alternative festivals, but I want to do a big one overseas before I pack my tent up for good!
Just seen this was 25 years ago this week - amazing! Was lucky enough to be there - they never repeated the highs of that night
Cheers Steelmonkey and Norway plus everyone else! This thread would not work without your top contributions. Thank you! Love life, live the R's and love music
