paulo999 Posted December 14, 2008 Report Share Posted December 14, 2008 Shame - But why could they not play the Friday? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluearsedfly Posted December 16, 2008 Report Share Posted December 16, 2008 Agree. The logistics just would be too much as they would headline and wouldn't get their kit off site until Sat morn before a journey over seas/ set up/ sound check/ show. Got the ability to have a stripped down version I suppose for the Fri night but guess they would want the full all singing all dancing rig.

Tugger2k Posted December 17, 2008 Report Share Posted December 17, 2008 id of thought they are more IOW contenders (IF) they do a festival ?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timespeedsup Posted December 18, 2008 Report Share Posted December 18, 2008 they very well might - but they are just about confirmed for wireless (not really a festival - just gigs in the park) as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tugger2k Posted December 18, 2008 Report Share Posted December 18, 2008 They did Wireless a few years back. Good money? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timespeedsup Posted December 18, 2008 Report Share Posted December 18, 2008 excellent money - cant wait if it does happen - i get my hyde park gigs for free!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
popcornmaster Posted January 28, 2009 Report Share Posted January 28, 2009 after nme brought it up i did a little digging and i dont believe depeche mode cannot move their set from prague to somerset to paris its much closer than the boss' plan Bilbao 26th to somerset 27th (according to the very strong rumours) to bernidorm 28th surely as people seem to proclaim him one of the greatest live act he must have some sort of decent stage rig? i don't know it seems a cop out to say they wont play due to travel its a tour thats what they do generally to save money or make the most however you want to look at it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pedmills Posted January 28, 2009 Report Share Posted January 28, 2009 Also there doesn't really seem to be much of a slot for them, Friday other stage headliner is bound to be a new/young band, kaiser chiefs seem to be directly below Neil Young, Depeche Mode are surely too big for 3rd on the pyramid?

popcornmaster Posted January 28, 2009 Report Share Posted January 28, 2009 The Springsteen dates are at the end of JULY, I believe Glasto is at the end of JUNE... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paulo999 Posted January 28, 2009 Report Share Posted January 28, 2009 There's no date pressure on the Springsteen schedule at all, but for Depeche Mode it means doing Prague > Pilton > Paris back to back. For that you are looking at air-freighting all their kit, at least for the journey to the festival. Not impossible, but much pricier than going by sea.

eFestivals Posted February 16, 2009 Report Share Posted February 16, 2009 Cheers, no surprise, would have been nice and all that. Is there anything to tell, with you now being sure? nope, only that they're not playing Glastonbury this year, or any other UK fest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
