Not Too Quiet

Legendary Bruce Springsteen was recently fined right after his a little bit too long performance at the Glastonbury festival in Britain, said ContactMusic. Of course, abropting someone like Bruce will never work, and writing out ‘tickets’ is absolutely impossible. Usually those are very small amounts of money for people like Springsteen, but the whole idea behind ‘cutting’ of a musician because he is not stopping on time looks slightly odd. On June 27 Springsteen was closing a third day of the festival together with his group E Street Band on the Pyramid Stage. Bruce’s debut performance at the Glastonbury stage was lasting for two and a half hours, including twenty five songs out of his classic arsenal such as “Badlands”, “Born To Run”, and “Thunder Road”. Eventually he was fined due to the fact that his performance lasted on forty minutes longer than originally designed by the organizers and local authorities. After twelve o’clock at night it should be quiet in around the Glastonbury area. Come on, it’s the festival event and Mr. Springsteen is performing, law is law, but certain exceptions are definitely possible in these cases. However, festival’s top manager Michael Eavis said that he is going to pay Bruce’s fine because he believes that his performance was absolutely stunning. In 2004 Paul McCartney was also fined for a long performance.
