Glastonbury 2011 - You better be worth the hassle!

I feel genuinely distraught and angry for the people who failed to get Glastonbury 2011 tickets yesterday. It was a complete disaster! Five-long-hard-hours it took 5 of us (all with at least one computer and one phone going each, sometimes even two) to get through to SeeTickets. In the end I was the only one so booked all five, but there were just so many people who didn't make it through.

It really was disgracefully handled this year, understandably SeeTickets has to deal with a massive amount of avid festival goers hammering on their website door at 9am sharp, however if you know this is going to happen, and it's getting worse every year, surely it is time to step up and recognise the problem?

Thousands of people were left disappointed and the 137, 000 tickets in just over five hours, some didn't even get to see the booking page! Fingers crossed for the resale in March/April!
