I wouldn't write Elvis off just yet. He's still pulling in more listeners on Spotify than Radiohead are.

Yes, Muse probably will do it at some point....

JFC! She's a female Alan Partridge! If I find myself listening on Saturday night, I feel it is justified punishment for not going out! She once had a phone in and the subject was soup! FFS!

I am pleased with the new WA song. Very excited for the new album. They were the last band I saw live before lockdown, somewhat fitting that their return heralds a return to normality.

In these very difficult times, the world just does not need more music from The Offspring.

I concur. But the last suitable tour he did was back in 2008 (after that, Symphonica came with a full orchestra so not practical for fests). We sometimes forget that the fest wasn't as huge back then (Verve and KOL headlining), and certainly not as pop-friendly. But, had they got him then, or indeed later he would have put on a great show (check out the live at Earls Court from that tour, its superb). I still think he is massively under-rated amongst the so-called "serious music lovers".

Isn't he a rabbit...?

It seems certain that the festival won't happen on the original dates. I think they will try and postpone it to later in the summer. The weekend you suggest seems a little tight, it just needs one delay in relaxing the rules, and it's over, but I could see a date in July or August as a possibility. Given that a great majority of the line-up is British, I think they have a better chance than some other festivals of going ahead.
-
A lot will depend on the size of the festival. I think smaller fests in august will go ahead. BST in July still risky.
-
Makes sense.
-
Had they known then, what we know now, yes it could have gone ahead. But at the time the decision was made, there was still too much uncertainty and a decision had to be made then. It may seem like in hindsight they made the wrong choice, but it would have been too big a gamble for them to take.

I'm unsure of the reason for posting this, but Obama had long left office when these pics were taken. I suppose you could accuse an unemployed man of taking a holiday....

I wonder if IOW and Download may push back a couple of weeks to make this happen. Especially now Glastonbury weekend is free.
-
This. I think they could have done some of the tour this year, but once Glastonbury was postponed, they decided to postpone too.
