Following the Mendip District Council issue of a Public Entertainment Licence, crowds were limited to 30,000, proper toilets were provided and Radio Avalon (Glastonbury’s own radio station) went live. A £12 ticket provided performances by The Beat, UB40 and Curtis Mayfield. £45,000 was raised for the ‘Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament’ and other local charities.

Wow I remember. The sun shone from Friday morning all week end. There was a lot of sunburnt people. Fun Boy Three did a FANTASTIC version of The End by the Doors whilst burning a USA flag.Dope cakes being sold by Earth Mothers and everything else by bikers! and an amazing vibe all three days, even when Simon's car got impounded by the fuzz. Happy Days they were.

My first Glasto. Setting up my tent to the strains of Marillion and thinking "oh my god what have I let myself in for". They finished and it just got better and better. Missed 1 year in the next 6 (my dog had pups) and have been a few times since,but as Benny B says Fun Boy 3 burning the stars and stripes is my first memory of all my visits since.
