(Gibson) Former Sex Pistol John Lydon says he is saddened by the change in music festivals. While Lydon is booked to play several festivals next summer with Public Image Ltd, he fears that the "loss of free will" has spoiled the experience.According to the Daily Express, he thinks festivals now are all about money: "Next year's gigs are booked. I love the festivals, although the spirit of free will just isn't there which festivals used to have. "Forty years ago, festivals were stunning and now it is just people with cash in hand, which is a little tough. It is all about headlining and half the bands are miming anyway." - more on this story
