In 1983 a local Government act was put in place across Britain which gave local authorities power over live events. Mendip District Council fortunately granted Glastonbury a licence but limited the capacity to 30,000 and also stipulated controls over hygiene, road access and stage times. Revellers paid �14 to see the likes of Marillion, Julian Cope, Curtis Mayfield and UB40 perform in the blistering sunshine.
