Few rumours circulating earlier but has died a death?
Any reasons why?
Very much hope they play

I don't think it was ever anything more than people on here wanting them to play, and it coinciding with new album. Unfortunately us wanting them to play doesn't equal rumour.

True - But not ruled out yet either <hope emoticon>

Gomez need to play, totally loving the new album!!

Sort it out Mr E

Anybody heard any Gomez for Glasto 2010 rumours?

None the wiser myself & don't fancy our chances for them being there tbh. They're currently on a short American tour that finishes at the end of the month. No dates after that, and no new album to promote..

They have just released a great live record from the last UK tour in November. You can listen for free & buy it from here: http://www.gomeztheb...com/liveseries/

Just spent the last hour or so, paying, downloading, unzipping, expanding, burning, and listening to this and it's awesome. It used to be so easy when record shops sold records.

It says on their website that they're going into the studio soon in the States so I doubt they'll be back for summer festies in the UK. Can but hope though. Maybe a Ben solo gig would be logistically easier.

On second listen already, and 'awesome' is an understatement (but that is coming from a 'fanboy')! Well worth the downloading, unzipping, expanding & burning

"If Carlsberg made consolation prizes..." I'd be more than ecstatic if we even got that much at Glasto this year. Love that man's voice!

[refriedgenes]

I know. I couldn't make it up. Haven't been to gig in a few months now, and after promising an old uni mate I'd go to his stag weekend I find out Ben's doing a solo show in Derbyshire on the same weekend. Other end of the country.

Yea, saw them in Northampton in November and the crowd there was subdued to say the least. Only getting mildly excited for songs on Bring It On & Liquid Skin, from which they didn't play many!! Didn't bother me, thought they were great..

saw them at Beautiful Day's a couple of years ago and they were fab really really good so an appearance at glasto would be well worth a peep..x
