Due to the grip of the Thatcher government, in 1987 many live events in the UK were having their licences turned down. Amazingly, Glastonbury only had their refusal overturned a month before the event. Despite the adversity, the event was a relative success raising an impressive �130,000 for local charities. It was, however, reduced to only two days from three the previous year, while it was the first time since 1978 that the festival's capacity didn't expand.
