FLEETWOOD MAC FOR 2017 HEADLINER.....

[JulesyBoy]

.......it's a given surely.  Headliners were booked months ago & if ever there was a band who needed notice to make sure they are all getting along in time for next June not to mention double booking themselves for another massive world tour, it's The Mac.  In addition they have all stated how keen they are to get on that Pyramid stage.  Their website shows no live events scheduled....stand by ya beds folks.

Already been ruled out because of their demands. Michael said £5m.

Eavis has already said the greedy bastards want 4-5 million to play, not a chance. 

Love the music but they seem like a set of horrible c**ts who'd chose money over glory every time 

[rpfranks]

They will never headline now, their time has passed.

How much did they get for the IOW Festival?

No one knows exactly but it's the first time I've seen a festival advertise an act as a "worldwide festival exclusive" so they'd have got millions

I would absolutely love it but unfortunately they cannot see the wood for trees. If somebody sat them down and showed them the uplift in Lionel's record sales after he did Glastonbury they might realise how short sighted it is to demand such a stupid fee. I'm sure I read on their last tour Mick Fleetwood was charging £1000 for tickets witch included a meet and greet that was basically just having your photo taken with him. Money grabbing c**ts, not sure how much more they need at their age.

That's not all, for that £1000 you also got a wine tasting session with the greedy bastard

Like we need this thread for the 100999909000976th year in a row.

Them being inactive is a sign they're playing?

Nirvana have none scheduled either, should I expect them to headline?

If they were that keen to play the Pyramid they would have last year but no they decided to go to Isle of Wight for the big bucks instead. They're money grabbing c**ts and the only reason they'd play Glastonbury is if it was the best offer on the table

(If you don't know Glastonbury pay less for acts than other big name festivals so I doubt they'll ever be the best straight up cash sum offer on the table)

Bet he drank most of it too.

If they saw some of the pyramid crowds this year you can hardly blame them for not wanting to perform in front of the lifeless c**ts

[JulesyBoy]

Such bad vibes towards the legends!  Come on, they have bills to pay too!  Also a tad confused as to exactly who the lifeless c**ts are...the crowd or the Mac!

Just started watching the coverage now, the crowds just look dead at the Pyramid, it's like watching a different festival to the rest.

Dreadful band, dreadful music, dreadful individuals. No interest whatsoever in 'em.

Well I reckon that just about covers it. Shut the thread, lads, we're finished here.

Yep. They'd fax it in. Mickey F with an appalling excuse for a solo, dark-drummer doing all the heavy lifting. Rubbish.

I am definitely of the opinion that Mick Fleetwood is one dreadful old c**t, and a pish drummer to boot

Sadly, as much as I like their music and would love them to play, the above post says it all.
