Halcyon Posted May 25, 2010 Report Share Posted May 25, 2010 where exactly does it say their appearance at Glastonbury is cancelled? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
russycarps Posted May 25, 2010 Report Share Posted May 25, 2010 To be honest I never thought they were actually going to cancel. Absolutely gutted for the people on here who were looking forward to this. Tugs, Wooderson et al. Awful stuff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eFestivals Posted May 25, 2010 Report Share Posted May 25, 2010 how is it "official" when it doesn't make mention of UK dates? I guess that they'll probably cancel Glasto, but as it's something outside of the 360 tour, there's the possibility that they won't. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NED KELLY Posted May 25, 2010 Report Share Posted May 25, 2010 (edited) Personally was not going to watch them but I feel for everyone else that were looking forward to them as its happened to me before, white strips at t replaced by the flaming lips so not all bad.

mikeb Posted May 25, 2010 Report Share Posted May 25, 2010 (edited) Posted same thing on the other thread just before you did. No surprise to me whatsoever unfortunately given what Bono has probably had done. It was always going to be several months rather weeks before anything remotely close to normal activity would be a sensible thing. Although no mention of Glasto specifically of course, it's pretty much for certain not going to happen now I guess. B*gger But you never know ... all is not lost just yet Edited May 25, 2010 by mikeb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

_danny_ Posted May 25, 2010 Report Share Posted May 25, 2010 hardly seems likely that they'd cancel the lucrative part of the tour (and that's not a sarcastic dig) but still play Glasto... as you say, maybe not 'official', but as good as Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ampersand Posted May 25, 2010 Report Share Posted May 25, 2010 as much as I was looking forward to seeing them, Glastonbury still has the best possible closer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Niblet Posted May 25, 2010 Report Share Posted May 25, 2010 Emily Eavis has just tweeted that U2 have cancelled Glasto - that's pretty official Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hans_gatwick Posted May 25, 2010 Report Share Posted May 25, 2010 They'll have to play next year definitely!! Only positive now is that looks like the flaming lips/u2 conundrum has solved itself, unless the replacement is Bowie/Radiohead/Led Zeppelin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
