  1. Rang the cheese and grain earlier and they said it is apparently booked for a "private event". 

    I said I'd heard Foo Fighters were playing and the lady said "have you?" but did't deny it. Just kept telling me it was booked for a private event.

  2. 5 minutes ago, eFestivals said:

    I dunno. It's a matter of opinion, I guess.

    It's a booking that some will think is great tho, I'm pretty sure.

    Yes, I agree. A lot of people will love it, and will buy a ticket off the back of it. Some will be very indifferent.

  3. To my mind, there are a lot of reasons to expect to them at Glastonbury.

    They are headlining Download, but are not a 'British exclusive', as Aerosmith have been labelled. No Sonisphere this year, and they haven't been rumoured to play any other festival, Reading and Leeds falls a bit outside of their tour schedule.

    They are free on the Saturday, and would be a good fit headlining the Other Stage up against Eddy on the main stage.

    It would mean a pretty gruelling 4 day festival binge though, Denmark, Spain, Glastonbury and then back to Europe for Firenze Rocks in Italy.

    I can't see why they are not an exclusive for Download, if they aren't playing Glastonbury. Haven't got any of their own shows lined up in the UK.

     

    Thoughts?

     

  4. Has this been done yet?

    Gregory Porter stated: "Glastonbury has a tradition of being open to all types of music but it's really exciting to be performing on the main stage. The audience response to my performance last year really blew me away - the incredible musical atmosphere - I'm really looking forward to performing again and bringing my music back to Glastonbury this summer."

    Main stage = Pyramid?

    He performed last year on West Holts so it's not like he doesn't know which stage the main stage is.

  5. I looked at their dates ad they are in Canada or something on Thursday I think. It would be a squeeze for them to get back, but definitely possible.

    I have no reason to disbelieve this guy, but of course, there's always the chance it could be bollocks.

  6. I wrote it in another thread but I'll write it on here too. I heard from the guy that usually gets our lot backstage passes to Silver Hayes every year (his sister is a secretary at Glastonbury HQ) that Adele will headline Saturday up against BMTH on the Other Stage
