Thanks for the replies. If you're going to Glastonbury anyway, and can get any photos of artists especially who have Wikipedia pages without photos, then those would be the most useful. Ed has been the first person to reply asking for the ticket, so as I have to tell Glastonbury ASAP, I'm going to put Ed's name down for it.
Thanks everybody, and please remember that if you're a WMUK member and would like a photography pass to attend an event and have a decent camera, WMUK is happy to ask for press accreditation for any events where there might be people or other content to take photos of. As you can see, even big events like Glastonbury are willing to offer us a free ticket.
