Which slot? Not joking. Their performance last year was one of the best moments of my life. Was fecking unbelievable.

You mean "here".

And how do you know?  

[tjefffrench]

I really hope not
they are one of the most over rated bands on the festival scene

They were awesome last night at Donny Dome and I'm not what you'd call a huge fan.  I'd see them if they cropped up somewhere.

Was intended as a musical pun. A bad one at that. Self-confirmed at their gig last night. I assume the reason they haven't been announced is due to their contractual agreement with Leeds and Reading.

Pendulum playing The Park stage, how will this work?

Don't get me wrong they were great last year but that was on The Other stage, just won't be that good on the park IMO.

'Who's going leeds festival & Glastonbury? See you there!' or something to that extent.

If this is true I may actually crap my pants. I thought all hope was lost after the line up was announced.

I still doubt it however, the only special guests are on the park and i doubt they will play there, the only other possibility is that they are part of a reshuffle plan in the event that U2 cant play (flaming lips to the pyramid and pendulum on the other?). Also they are playing on the wednesday, saturday and sunday in various places around europe.

Ah i see, im sorry just getting caught up in the whole they're playing lark.

[muddyslingbax]

caught them at Space closing party last year
enjoyable but samey; particularly when up against mediocre house and shit drugs  

[mike46]

ah how I hope this is true! They were only second to Blur last year, seen them a few times but none compare to Glasto!

Watched Prodigy at Glasto last year and thought they were average/poor.

Pendulum last night were ace, as tight as a drum and worked the crowd really well.  The setlist worked well too.  Started strong, few newer ones in the middle and a stonking finish.  I was so worn out by the end that I couldn't even get stuck in at the pit during the encore (Tarantula) and I love that song.

The only gig Pendulum have looked really, really good, is at Reading Festival in 2008, the crowd was insane and was packed.

[Jackmypie]

O.o

I don't see much likeness between the Prodigy and Pendulum at all...Yeah, they're both dnb-ish, but not that simliar.
