GLASTONBURY, England, Jan. 21 (UPI) -- Glastonbury Festival founder Michael Eavis says about 90 percent of the tickets for this summer's concert series on his Somerset farm have been sold.
The BBC said festival organizers opted to start offering the 137,500 ducets for the June event earlier than usual after tickets to the 2008 festival didn't sell out in advance.
"You'll be amazed when you hear the headliners we've got coming this year, and we've already sold 90 percent of the tickets for this year," the BBC quoted Eavis as saying as he accepted an award for environmental work at the Midem music conference in France. "We've got four headliners at the moment."
Although Eavis did not name names, the BBC said Blur, Bruce Springsteen and Neil Young are rumored to be making appearances at the Glastonbury Festival.
