Glastonbury is this weekend, reminds us of why we love the internet

135,000+ music fans have made their way to Pilton, England this weekend to attend the world’s largest summer music festival. That’s right, the 38th annual Glastonbury Festival of Contemporary Performing Arts is indeed going down this weekend.

While we won’t even try to cover it (NME always has a solid handle on it), we would like to point out the fact that you don’t have to be at Glastonbury this weekend to actually experience the musical side of things. That’s because the BBC is offering it own version of the AT&T Blueroom, complete with full video performances from a number of bands appearing on this year’s lineup. In other words, sit back and watch from the comfort of your home!

So far, you have the Foals, The Fratellis, We Are Scientists, Editors, The Enemy, MGMT, Lupe Fiasco, The Cribs, Panic at the Disco, and Friday headliners Kings of Leon to choose from.

Oh the wonders of the internet make life so much easier. Plus, you don’t have to worry about being arrested.
