Silent Festival

by Guy Brighton

Lad_with_earphonesIn response to the problem of noise pollution at the Glastonbury festival this year (which
has traditionally led the district council to issue a license for the
festival on the condition that its main stages and tents shut down on
the stroke of midnight), organisers will hand out wireless headphones to let festival goers dance
to whatever record the headline DJ plays.

Imagine the scene for onlookers: 3000 of them! Dancing in silence!

Reminds PSFK of the Mobile Clubbing they do in Europe where folk turn up with an iPod loaded with the same tune and they all click play at the same time and start dancing!
