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!
