Does Drake ever get put into the mix of headliner pool?
Arguably bigger than jay-z & kanye,
Certainly bigger than dave & stormzy
Or just not his type of event / pay day

Got mine through today for the Sunday tickets

Yeah that is weird if NIN are only doing indoor venues. Last time they came to the UK they were doing indoor venues in June too. Hope that's wrong, I'd much prefer a festival.
Not really a weird thing to do, depending on their light show it may be built for indoor shows specifically. I've seen them at festivals a few times & indoors a few times, would much prefer the arena show.

Did you request a PJ refund or did they give it you any way and they aren’t rescheduling BST?
I requested it when they put out the last statement about a week ago, no info about rescheduling or not.
-
Received my refund for the pearl jam show (including fees) from axs, just waiting to see if kendrick is rescheduled now.

This is a wind up, right?! What part of the current lockdown do you not understand? People are continuing to die, is it really acceptable to just nip out for beer?
In Peru they restricted the sale of alcohol as its a nonessential item, seems to make sense to me.
Although of course you could still get it if you tried, but that was the official line.

Sorry but that’s rubbish. Germany has a higher population density than Italy, so will they have a higher death toll? Belgium and the Netherlands have the highest population densities in Europe, so will they get hit hardest? The reason Italy had been hit harder in the first place is they have an older population (see average age of positive test in Germany vs Italy) It is also far more common in Italy for many generations to live under one roof which will greatly aid transmission and put an older population further at risk. This does not happen in the U.K., or Germany for that matter.
In relation to the initial spread yes I would expect England to have more cases due to the density & delay in putting the initial quarantine place. Plus there are certainly areas of the country where it is frequent that multiple generations live under the same form.
Whilst Italy have an average older age compared to the England, they are also a much healthier country comparitive to England. With Spain being the healthiest European country.
There are many factors that come into play but I was merely saying my opinion is that the greater population density will contribute to the spread & subsequent fatalities in the UK comparitive to Italy specifically.
-
Considering the population density of the uk & more specifically England compared to a lot of Europe, I'd expect our fatality rates to be atleast double that of Italy.

Official news today said that lockdown restrictions could be lifted at end of May if people adhere to the rules. Let's call that mid-late June as a worst case scenario.
Still leaves 2.5 months to R+L! Surely it wouldn't take 2.5 months for no lockdown developing into large gatherings allowed? This is assuming things continue to improve, and surely the govt. won't risk lifting lockdown until that's next to certain?
I assume that will be for our internal quarantine measures, not opening the borders for international travel.
Even when borders do reopen it will be dependant on the global situation & will still be a few months after that until people willingly travel for non essential trips.

She could of been booked ages ago though when it wasnt all close to selling out
As Grumpyraver already stated that still doesn't affect why the show couldn't be announced now if she was playing.
The longer the tickets are on sale the better, otherwise people may decide not to attend due to other plans.

i really doubt this festival has the budget to go after RATM. i would say its either Foo Fighters or Eminem.
Doesn't have the budget for RATM but does for eminem? I'd imagine eminem would be charging just as much if not more.

Doesn’t fit the Community clue.
Except that it does, Community doesn't necessarily mean the festival (it probably does but not established).

Got Kendrick gold circle the other day at £110.00 each. He was great at the O2 so cost will be worth it.
Although i may end up selling my pearl jam ticket now due to the amount of london based gigs in June/july.

I'd be nervous about seeing them, I was too young before, now they might be too old and no Slash, I've heard mixed reports about them live... if they weren't amazing it would taint my memory of how much I loved their music as a little
Slash has been back in the band for years now & all the reports I've heard have been great.
Will be getting tickets for the London show.

Thought it was called Astoria 2 by then?
I thought there were two seperate astorias on the same street, may have just been different entrances though.

Anyone need two tickets for today?

Something similar happened to me. Bought two tickets and I'm pretty sure I wasn't hallucinating when I saw a booking confirmation page. But I looked the next day and I had no emails, no money gone from my bank, and no info about the tickets on my AXS account
Same thing happened to my group as well. My mate never received the confirmation email, phoned axs & they said it hadn't gone through.
Luckily we all managed to pick up free tickets instead!
-
Looks like I’m heading to tomorrow by myself now, as my mate has just bailed. So I have spare ticket for tomorrow if anyone’s interested.
Hoping the organisation is better than the Finsbury events have been!

Bar queues were awful, only bothered once and it took 45 minutes.
The sound was Liam was far too quiet, everyone still complaining about it on the the train home.
Kind of glad I'm not bothering with queens tomorrow now.

As in why would she. She aint British so it probably isn't as important to her to headline it, and she can easily make more money doing a stadium tour instead. It's the same reason I don't expect Taylor Swift or Drake to headline
All the headliners that could do stadium tours would earn more money from those shows than Glastonbury, what's your point?
Besides I'm pretty sure ticket sales for her last time stadium tour were rather weak and I'm pretty sure she had to cancel a show or two, doesn't scream "too big" to me.
Beyonce's much bigger and she's not British, why did she headline?

Anyone been to the melkweg in Amsterdam? Tempted to pick up tickets for the alexisonfire show.
