eFestivals Posted April 27, 2017 Report Share Posted April 27, 2017 I know lots of peeps think they're playing because of their show in Bristol, but I had them marked as TBC (rather than just rumoured) and now i can't find why I had them as TBC. Is anyone able to point me at anything that does confirm them as playing? Cos i have someone telling me that they're not (it's not impossible that's wrong, tho it's more likely right).

I don't have the pic but an email was sent out about their Bristol show which said they were heading to Glasto after. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FloorFiller Posted April 27, 2017 Report Share Posted April 27, 2017 Gutted if they're not playing but makes sense and thought they weren't gonna show up before they became a TBC. I'm not sure how they became a TBC but I thought they were initially added as a R/SR as they have gigs in such close proximity to the festival.

I will say though in fairness it does help me as I'd have felt the need to go and see them being at Glasto and this would make the effort to go Victorious defo worth it! Plus those Bristol gigs, it was said Glasto usually only have 3 out of 4 and the other 3 look likely. 8 minutes ago, FloorFiller said: Well at least that takes away the possibility of a Friday 11am clash anyway.

Why would the Park be more likely? Surely the only reason Elbow wouldn't open Other is that they're still too big/current for it, so I'm not sure why doing a smaller scale secret set would be more likely.

Could they headline the park stage on Friday? Other than that I can't see them in another slot up there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is that - "not playing" or "not opening the other stage"? I'd like to see the Manics, but would be at Hacienda Classical most likely.

Gucci Piggy Posted April 27, 2017 Report Share Posted April 27, 2017 Tbf it did seem a slightly odd one anyway having released nothing (except that Wales song) since their last appearance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chatty Posted April 27, 2017 Report Share Posted April 27, 2017 Was hoping they would play but have tickets for them later in the year and it takes away the possibility of an opener clash so Im good either way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But take it from me in good faith it looks very unlikely - tho not impossible - that they're playing this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
