    • What a joke!! Jay Z or whatever at Glastonbury, Kayne West at Global... why the hell have English festivals been taken over by hip-hop Americans!! Completely wrong genre!! Kanye probably cost more than someone like Tiesto as well!! Fools! We’re not going anymore - you couldn’t even *give* me a ticket!

    • Oh why don’t you lot just grow up. Jay Z proved everyone wrong at Glastonbury and Kanye will at Global. Glad you have all decided to boycott it, means everyone else will enjoy it more!
