10 iconic Glastonbury moments
What a place
The first ever Glasto
Much like the big bang, or the evolution of man, or even the invention of the wheel, every great thing had to start somewhere and for Glastonbury Festival it all kicked off back in 1970. In terms of music, there weren’t a great deal of big names. T.Rex headlined which is pretty big, but it was more a gathering of free spirits who in turn made the festival everything it’s become today. One thing worth mentioning is how much it actually cost revellers to go to the festival. Most new festivals now start small and open with a gambit of between £80-£100 but not Glasto, oh no. The first Glastonbury festival cots £1. Yep, a quid. Nowadays you can’t even get a small coconut water for £1 let alone entry to a festival. Michael, as we always have, we salute you. Funster
