Kanye West For Glastonbury 2009?

added 03 October 2008 at 16.11

Registration for Glastonbury Festival 2009 opens this weekend. For the first time you'll be able to put down a £50 deposit for your ticket and pay the rest off next year.

Organiser Michael Eavis told Xfm they hope it'll help it sell out this time. "Last time we were the last [festival] to sell," he said. "ll the Vs, the Ts, the Readings went on before us and they stole some of our thunder, so I thought it was important that we stole some of theirs again."

The bearded festival man claimed that the deposit idea was ideally suited to the current financial climate. "We decided to do this about three months ago, so the credit crisis wasn't upon us at the time," he explained, "But it will certainly fit that model won't it?"

Eavis also dropped a tantalising hint about who may be on the bill in 2009. "There's some talk of Kanye West playing The Other Stage, he's sort of Jay-Z's rival, or rather they come from that same stable, don't they? I'd love him to do The Other Stage, but not the Pyramid."

You can register and pay your deposit from 9am on Sunday, October 5. To register, you'll need to upload a passport photo of yourself, along with your usual details at www.glastonburyregistration.co.uk.
