u2...coldplay....eagles

[Barratt1197]

I have no inside knowledge in the slightest however...reading between the lines I believe these to be headlining...Michael Has said they are the three biggest bands in the world this year...obviously this is down to opinion..they are all bands...fact..Michael loves eagles..big friends with coldplay...u2 announced glasto sale date on their own website...he also stated he has booked an American act he has wanted for years...eagles fit that statement...u2 could fit it in with their American dates...coldplay are playin fests..and I believe eagles to be in Europe during the same time as glasto...I think u2 and coldplay r nailed on...only doubt is eagles cause of the money...but think they could get round this with uk advertising by playin the fest...thoughts?apologise if any of my facts r wrong...only an opinion of mine

[LondonTom]

I thought it was common knowledge it was:

Fri: U2

Sat: Coldplay & Beyonce

Sun: Stones & Pulp

Or maybe not...........?

[godders1966]

Maybe it's REM , not the Eagles, now they've appeared on the rumour board as an 'SR'

I really like the Eagles. So If you have a ticket I wont be buying you a cider. You are spending to much of you energy on negative comments.

you know, CS&N, James Taylor, Mike Nesmith, Gram parsons, Joni Mitchell, Jackson Brown, David Ackles, The Byrds, Gene Clark, all beautiful wonderful uplifting stuff. Real, and from the heart.

[anoldhippie@60]

Sorry man, I really am. It's just they took all the music I love, all the greatest country rock from the late 60s/early 70s, all that wonderful creative beautiful stuff made by artists, visionaries and f**kups and then soulessly, carefully planned how to use it to make money in the most cynical way possible. People talk about plastic bands, about manufactured pop, about how they hate, I dunno, Lady Gaga, Take That, whatever but the Eagles are just as bad, maybe worse in my book for cynically destroying music and art

It's cool, I'll stand *you* a cider It'll be my pleasure. Love to have a proper chat about this, not internet nonsense

[Mardy]

that's just daft...

they started out like most other bands and happened to be unbelievably succesful ...

how is that cynical, or manufactured, or plastic?

[Mardy]

But anyway, I'm going to leave this now. I understand I'm not going to change your mind, nor you mine. It's cool.

f**king hate the Eagles. Just too polished for me I'm afraid. The Band is what it's all about, sorry.

The only one that I actually like is the HHGTTG one.

[sifi]

you don't like The Eagles because you like The Band...?

why Journey Of The Sorcerer..?

because it was used in HHGTTG?

I think a lot of punters decided they don't like them because of The Big Lebowski

[anoldhippie@60]

Sorry to be a thicko but what is HHGTTG ????

[sifi]

The Hitch Hikers guide to the galaxy, possibly the greatest book to ever come out of the publishing house of Megadodo Publications, partly because it's cheap and features the words "Don't Panic" in large, friendly letters on the cover" etc.
