i thought that this morning but will book brighton tickets anyway and hope that like brighton tickets for orbital it makes them almost certain

I would absolutely die if I got the chance to see them live, but I'm just curious one something...What is their status regarding Glastonbury after Nicky's comments in 1994. I know he has apologized and said it was a joke, but do people still hold a grudge against them that would hamper their booking?

I would love to see them agian! Me and my boyfriend can't make the tour as they aren't playing close enough to where we live so we are hoping that they will be at Glasto!

[theleedslads]

Please let this happen!

[MMAlien]

Manics for the win! hope they play again!

[Mr Ploppy]

Manics for the win! hope they play again!

[Supernova]

would be thrilled if they play

[Kyelo]

Would quite like to see them. Only other chance I had before was at Rockness when they were up against Daft Punk, there was no choice really lol Daft Punk are one of my all time favourite live performances I have seen.

So yes, would be good to see Manics as I never got the chance.

Blimey, I would almost explode if the final line-up included Manics, Wonderstuff, White Stripes, Nick Cave and BB King!

Manics are great for a tipsy shout-along-at-the-top-of-your-voice-late-afternoon-moment

Manic played 2003 then 2007. Would be nice but don't think it'll happen. That said they are playing T a fortnight after Glasto so there maybe is a little hope.

Absolutely love The Manics. Remember in 1994 having to run from the Pyramid where Rage Against The Machine were on to catch them and then having to run back to Pyramid for Levellers.

Must be a pretty good Glasto bet. They did Reading/Leeds last year, so with a new album out I think it's odds on they will do Glasto this time.

[dannypal]

i dont like to be negative but the manics have to be the worst and most boring band in the world ever

[RossTC]

They were good in 07, and i really liked some of the stuff from there last album tbf!

I'm not a huge fan of the Manics, but I caught them in 2007 and thought they were fantastic. One of the highlights of the festival for me, particularly their performance of Motorcycle Emptiness. I'm usually sceptical of "past it" bands who haven't produced any decent material for a while, but they still have it when it comes to the live stage.
