could make a fun camp night out as the other stage headliners. A la Pet Shop Boys

oh c'mon ... if it was really going to happen it would be main stage or nothing. And like it or not it would be a massive massive thing.

But there's probably nothing to the what I was sent - I keep pointing this out. I've not even added them to the rumours page.

No. But I think they'd give a lot of people a laugh and are a f8cksight more entertaining than Kanye or Mumfords.

That field singing "Careless Whisper" would be highly amusing, Tone. If you don't geddit then all humour has left you.

Wham have 5 or 6 decent pop singles, Michael has the same again in his solo repertoire. I'd take them over an identikit indie band or Florence and the bloody Machine who don't even have that in their favour.

as I said, no-ones putting a gun to my head to make me see anyone I don't like. I hated Wham then, I can't bear George Michael... nope, I'm 100% certain there will be plenty of better things to do.

Why is George Michael one of the good guys? cause he smokes dope?.. cause he gets caught with his dick in a cops mouth?

Sure he got caught but he didn't do it on stage while performing, surely that's what counts here. Not that I want to see wham in any way shape or form. But his personal stuff should stay that way.

As for Michael being a good guy, he clearly has a sense of humour about himself, on Twitter he makes the right sort of political noises and his response to his arrest in LA was the video for Outside. And at the Freddie Mercury tribute concert he was better than Roger Daltrey and Robert Plant combined.

The Wham! thread's got enough casual homophobia in it, no need for any more of that in this one as well.

    • Muse new album out soon , European tour announcement for Nov and Dec, no Spanish date and north American tour starts in July and in North America for all of July and August. So primavera and Glastonbury 
    • Well he is on a rape charge, don't see that one as controversial.    Although Hakimi is in Morocco squad.   
    • Electric Callboy just said they'll be touring here next year. I'm not sure there's a poster for it though. I'll look when I'm near some next.      He said we'll see you at Download at a gig before any of the band. Presumably he was trolling. They're in Austria at the moment and Germany tomorrow with a week's break and more shows in Germany. Whilst not impossible to come back here and then go over there again, it seems unlikely. 
    • Thomas Partey, knocked back by Canadian immigration now.
    • I'm sure someone can update you on the clashfinder, and it will be pretty accurate by the time the festival comes around. It's a large flat-ish arena with main stage in the open air, no best side I'd say. Leadmill (3rd stage medium tent) is at the back of the main arena, T'Other (2nd stage big tent) 5 min walk round the corner. At full capacity walking around can take a bit more time though. I noticed that The Enemy are scheduled to not fully overlap with Wolf Alice, so you could catch part of their set too.   You can walk around anywhere with a beer, with most bars the usual mass market stuff, but one nice craft ale tent, back of the arena near the Leadmill stage. A main meal will set you back £10-15, but cheaper snacks also available. Expect a pint to be £7-8. Possibly a bit more this year as prices everywhere are increasing.   It's fairly easy to get to from the town centre using the tram, although can be busy at peak times / very busy at curfew. If you like a walk, it's approx 40 mins to Kelham Island (lots of indy venues) and probably an hour to the city, or catch an Uber. There will be loads of 'fringe' music events on around the city right through the weekend. Most are free. Have a wonderful trip, enjoy the festival, and your stay in our city!
