Glastonbury 1971 was financed by W Churchill's granddaughter /Arabella Churchill/who is now dead. In 1971, Churchill played a major role in the development of the Glastonbury Festival. In 1979, she set up the Children's Area of the Festival and also the Theatre Area. Until her death, she ran the Theatre and Circus Fields. Her duties in the 2007 festival involved the booking and management of some 1500 separate acts. She also founded and was the director of the Children's World charity. She is forgotten by many and unknown by more.
and your point being that Michael Eavis takes credit for everything concerned with the festival right? If so you wouldn't be the first person I've met to take that view and as for how much profit goes to charity rather than to his own bank balance well that's another issue altogether....
That week in 1992 is Still one of the best weeks of my life and i m 50 now! Got to jam with Dave Swarbrick and was hiked over the fence by neighbouring farmer Mr Vickers. Went alone with no tent , had no drama and met lovely people. My purchase piece of canvas from the army store was a sad looking affair between 2 sticks but did the job and my best investment was a potty! And now i run my own boutique festival in Oz and many other events. No better inspiration. Thanks for sharing!
My pleasure! It's a small world. I'm 50 too and would say those few days back in 92 were one of the happiest times of my life. Good luck with your festivals!
I love how everyone will tar all travellers with the same brush, as someone who was brought up with these type of travellers I remember the bullying as a child. It is because of the narrow minds of people that they will judge before they actually get to know these people. The groups that I lived with would tidy up there rubbish before they left any site. There may have been quite a bit of drinking at times, but they would have worked the tides. I have and will always class these as my family!
He made his money on it being a Hippie festival with the travellers lending that authenticity. He tried to do it again with the Lost Vagueness but now it's just a eurodisney festival Now. Nothing like what it was. Shame. Used to be wild and free. No more. Luv and Peace. .
The buffer is revealed in its most recent accounts. In the year to the end of March 2018, it made a post-tax profit of £1.43m, had cash reserves of £10.6m and made charitable contributions of £2.1m.
There nice people, but I saw them on telly eating meat from Tesco's once on a tour documentary. They certainly dont live on a bus (maybe on a tour?). Last live gig I saw them at was a bit to predictable.
It was a fuckin good year too. They shoulda stuck together, gone to Stonehenge after Glastonbury, and had a long olympic games with the plod. Discus,Javelin,Hammer,shotput. Then the winner gets to pick time and place the following year lol
The fields around Worthy Farm in Somerset, would kindle a warm glow in the heart of Donald Trump. An eight-mile long, 20-foot high fence runs round the farm and the 12 neighbouring properties, encasing Britain's biggest music festival - Glastonbury, of course. The festival might even be more secure than Mr Trump's planned border wall between the US and Mexico. There are in fact two fences. A slightly shorter one sits in the shadow of the large barrier with enough room between them to drive an emergency vehicl
wonder how the levellers would react if me and all my mates turned up at beautiful days refused to pay 170 quid a ticket plus another 40 quid to park me van and when they asked me to leave cause i aint gonne pay 5 quid for a beer we have a fucking great fight with security and nick every thing that aint nailed down
dragonfitter haha! Spot on. It’s fucking true though! Most of this lot were fucking idiots. Didn’t take long for me to visit sites back then to realise this. Nor did many travellers that soon broke off from this mob and went alone.
I love Michael Eavis and his family for setting up this amazing festival. The Levellers apologised to Michael for what they said. Its a real shame that free festivals were fucked over by mindless morons and the authorities. Also Massive respect to Arabella(as mentioned bellow) and others involved in setting up and keeping Glasto going. I was at this festival, was I with the crowd watching the Levellers, nahh I was with the revellers (eh jumping John) in the other field Ozrics and more:)
Its a hard topic. In an ideal world peeps SHOULD be able to have areas in this land to travel to but I know many of them and lovely people a majority. But they are their own worst enemy and leave the sites in a state and wind peeps up entirely the wrong way I dont know why they havent thought further ahead and get out the country. So many gorgeous places around the world they could set up home!
From what I can see Eavis has sold his soul to the Devil , I was there when like me New Age Travels were welcome , they made the Show , no police and every one getting on , proper Mickey Mouse commercial event now !!!
All the locals love Glasto, now they are renting their land to the festival:) The levellers live in nice houses these days, are they still vegi? I saw a documentary, showing them doing a roast dinner from Tesco on their tour:):) Glastonbury is still the coolest festival on earth, The Eavis family are cool, they have done the right thing, getting it to where it is. Lots of smaller festivals about with an old school vibe. I Don't think anyone will ever recreate the Ozric Tentacles, Hawkwind,RDF Back To The Planet scene though. Saying that all those bands are still going and sounding good.
Very sad to hear the Levellers are meat-heads now. It flies in the face of what they stood for back in the day. re the Ozrics, check out 'sexual healing music' on my channel.
the thing that killed travellers was raves , shit music , you just got twats , no ethics , just dealing and taking the piss , my mate lived on a site , she had to move coz it was too noisy for her to bring up her kids , oh and castlemorton was full of idiots . R.I.P life on the road .

The organiser is responsible for the safety and security of festival goers. This lot were know for anti-social behaviour and would have represented a danger to others had they been allowed entry.
they are NOT anti-social, they are normal people that have seen thru the FARCE of modern society and government bullshit, and have chosen the nomadic life of our ancestors. A danger to others? All they want is to be left alone. I bet youre' a "Daily Fail" reader...
@@user-blaster_2012 they didnt just want to be left alone, they demanded to be let into glastonbury for free in 92 after they trashed the place and fought security in 1990 and nearly put an end to the whole festival ever happening again, would you let people into your house party after they trashed it and attacked people last time?

(unless it was giro day) yeah, well, modern 'society' prevented them from making honest coin as travellers, so what are they supposed to do, starve to death?
maybe you should learn the heritage of the festivals before passing such a comment. Travellers built Glasto' without them there would never be a festival where as Beautiful days was built to show that there was a life away from modern society and to give people that experience and chance for an original festival feel, it's not a place where travellers come to retreat, so yeah I guess they would be pissed, it's like comparing water and Iron really !
Glastonbury had it's day back in the early 90s..... It went downhill from then. We call it the 3Cs festival where I live....... Commercialised Corporate Crap festival.
The travellers had been going to Glastonbury for years before all this nonsense, Eavis welcomed the travellers for their ideas of a more creative festival, then turned his back on them and turned them away. Eavis now turned Glastonbury festival into this nostalgia commercialisation bandwagon pop festival, all that had been creative as now turned weaker and now lost it's vibes of what Glastonbury festival was once all about. I have not got never ever intention of ever returning again, i have had the best of Glastonbury festival that can never return back ever again to its former glory⚑🅰
I was there in 92 and witnessed the Dark Side of the travellers. A bunch of them pinched a load of beer from a guy who'd set up a stall selling it. He didn't stand a chance. Also an individual spent an entire evening terrorising a group of young guys who just wanted to chill around a fire and sing Beatles songs. He kept insisting that one of them fight him. I'm sorry but there's little doubt these people were from the travelling community. I've met some dear sweet gentle souls on the road, in Epping Forest where they camped in 91 picking shrooms and Portobello road, so I know they're not all bad. How is it possible they would be? But sadly, lawlessness gives shitty people opportunities to express themselves in all the wrong ways. I do believe Glasto 92 was the last decent one, I'm so glad I was there.
He's said before that you guys ripped him off over some monument/creation? (could have been the year before). Armed travelers showed up demanding cash from him... still sucks though; has never been the same since they put up the fence... '95 = Mud, Beer 'an' Acid!
@4th_Lensman_of_the_apocalypse Is that true though...? I'm pretty sure it was in '99 that the Manc and Liverpudian hoodies took control of the old routes in (the culvert, the trees, and the gap made in the fence by a traveller's lorry), and started charging people to get in. That was also when the scallies started robbing lots of folks. I saw it happen with my own eyes: a dude was tripping his balls off and some black guys approached him and started patting him down, looking for stuff to take. I think all that made them spend the million on the fence. It was getting wild/unsafe.
@@revol148 No the Levellers were originally from London and moved to Brighton in the late 1980s. They were originally punk rockers. They were not middle class or public school educated.
@@revol148 Yes I do! I read about them over twenty years ago! I have also seen them play live at a free festival in 1994 in Brockwell Park in Brixton. And they came to visit the place I was staying at in 1996 called Wandsworth eco village! This place: th-cam.com/video/LV0Gjce2qrA/w-d-xo.html
@@angusmeigh5141 Jon Sevink grew up in Harlow Essex, Jeremy Cunningham grew up in Cuckfield, Sussex & Mark Chadwick grew up in Germany where he father was in the army on the Rhine - I'd of thought 20 years of reading about them you would know all this ! I nearly went to that gig at Brockwell park on the strength of the Manic street preachers were playing but I was finishing off my A levels at the time so couldn't go.I remember that eco park - it was around the same time of the M11 anti-motorway protest in Wanstead and reclaim the streets in Camden - strange to think two and a half decades ago there was some counter culture going on in London.I missed the Glasto 1992 (I regret that to this very day) but I saw them when they headlined two years later - superb gig !
The BBC filming killed the festivals, channel 4 started filming & I said pls don’t film as it would destroy it , I remember cameras coming to our bell tents etc , so they wanted to film the travellers yet then wanted them off the land
chipsthedog1 Agree about the song I was there but biased in which way? Were you there when travellers decided to kick the fk out of little college students in there tents? They screwed up and lost their playground. I would however like to discuss the mustache community within the police 😂
as the police and thatcher put pressure on the convoy heads,it attracted violent types who wanted violence same story,every good scene gets ruined by wankers who have to come along and act tough..why couldent they have their own hard man festy where they can pose and kick shit out of each other?no,no they have to ruin it for everyone else..i met original travellers when i was young and green,they were nice ppl never forget them,sit down by the fire have a cup of tea.i,m like wow !accepted.shame!
Eavis makes a good fence but not a festival ive had more fun on the drove at Stonehenge on most weekends because its fucking real not invented patronising shite
yes ok spelling not that good ill give you that one. dont juge people you have never met travellers are some of the best people ive ever met.and wats wrong with alanis
Typical "travellers" - out for as much as they can get.Trying to live outside "the system" yet still happy to leach from the state they so dispise.You can see they clearly love all the attention.The fact that most of them are probably ex-public school boys roughing it before a year in India and of to Uni is another issue altogether.

The BBC filming killed the festivals, channel 4 started filming & I said pls don’t film as it would destroy it , I remember cameras coming to our bell tents etc , so they wanted to film the travellers yet then wanted them off the land
cut the best bit of the levs song, about police brutality. Biased much?
chipsthedog1 Agree about the song I was there but biased in which way? Were you there when travellers decided to kick the fk out of little college students in there tents? They screwed up and lost their playground. I would however like to discuss the mustache community within the police 😂
a few hundred of us escaped and parked up 2 miles away on an ancient track and heard them play that very gig.
as the police and thatcher put pressure on the convoy heads,it attracted violent types who wanted violence same story,every good scene gets ruined by wankers who have to come along and act tough..why couldent they have their own hard man festy where they can pose and kick shit out of each other?no,no they have to ruin it for everyone else..i met original travellers when i was young and green,they were nice ppl never forget them,sit down by the fire have a cup of tea.i,m like wow !accepted.shame!
There were a lot of decent travellers but there were too many liggers, cling ons and nutjobs aka Brew Crew who caused too much trouble.

Typical "travellers" - out for as much as they can get.Trying to live outside "the system" yet still happy to leach from the state they so dispise.You can see they clearly love all the attention.The fact that most of them are probably ex-public school boys roughing it before a year in India and of to Uni is another issue altogether.
Exactly ,they are called anti fa now
