Have I missed something ?

did he get too pissed last year ?

Won't be the same without them :-(

[sisterofmercy]

Outrage! I'm refunding my ticket...

[Wanderlei]

Special guests on the Park Stage?

[budvar]

I clocked this too. Real shame. I think I've only been to see it twice in my six Glastos, but I always make a point of checking the time. Could well be related to the increased cost of potatoes...

I'm seriously considering giving up my ticket now, for a start it's an outrage they are relegated to the kids section when we all know they deserve the headline slot on the pyramid stage. Not to be on the line-up at all though? I'm livid!

[jeffie]

They were the first rumour too!

Maybe the full Kids Field lineup has been held up until after the ticket resale?

Well I've never seen them on the official line up in the past so they might still be there.

Or maybe badger has been hooving up too much instant mash and needs a spell in rehab

[redmosquito]

Prehaps Badger no longer likes being fisted for a living so has decided to call it a day

I wouldn't be surprised if they're under an exclusivity deal - no doubt Big Chill have booked them as an exclusive - I wouldn't be a bit surprised.

[redmosquito]

Maybe with all the stories in the press about how badgers are spreading bovine tb ME won't want to risk his day job by letting Badger onto the farm

If this turns out to be the case then I think I'll have to give up on, well, life in general.

I heard badger is forging a new direction and will be appearing with Nicolas Jaar on west holts.

Didn't Bodger have some kind of breakdown on stage last year?

If that thread's true and explains why he's not been asked back, then that's a real shame. I'd always heard he appeared every year because he enjoyed the more refreshed and late night aspects of the festival, but a real pity to see him end up quite so Alan Partridge.

He should do a double act with the legendary Ian Cognito tho, who was utterly ruined during one show in the cabaret tent last year. He spent the whole thing bent double just slurring insults at the audience.
