Re; Serge, let's not forget this man has made a career out of talking bullshit and presenting it as fact, he told everybody his shit band were great and worthy of headlining R&L and Hard Rock Calling, lo and behold...

The man's a fucking idiot and knows nothing, at most he knows they turned down HRC, that's it, he's just enjoying giving it the big "I am" in the papers, it's not an unreasonable assumption to make, and he can claim to be a clued up genius when it comes out as true.

You seem to b very angry at the moment. In the scheme of things it's only a festival. Chill out. Why so serious

Mike, first you invent rumours, and now you've taken to inventing the emotions behind my words. You have not the faintest clue with either. :rolleyes:

The Sun and DigitalSpy stories both explicitly say that Take That are not playing Glastonbury this year. So for twitter to be exploding about them playing this year just gets to show how stupid those people are.

I think you're probably getting Serge confused with Tom, either way I bet he knows a damn site more than anyone else given that they're headlining a festival the the Stones were rumoured to be and are (were) a legit option for a Glasto back-up should the Stones turn it down. He's bound to be more in the loop that the average person given that it seems that his Summer plans are linked (albeit lossely) to what the Stones are doing.

history gets to tell me that he's not "bound" to be more in the loop than others. He might be, but he also might not be.

You'd be surprised how little bands sometimes know about where they're playing and what's going on around them.

Yeah I guess, but you have to entertain the possibility. Just dismissing him as someone who doesn't know more than anyone else seems a bit short-sighted.

but similarly it would be just as bad to put faith in what he says without any solid reason to have that faith in what he says.

I find it hard to dislike this serge fellow. Everything about him screams "whopper" but he's living the dream.

His band are headlining festivals, playing songs he's written. He no doubt lives the rockstar lifestyle.

Fair enough I think his music is godawful, but sat here typing this at my desk in london....well I wonder who the whopper actually is :lol:

    • 13th Primavera (Thursday was definitely making me feel like this was the cursed year).  Blood Orange was such a party by the end of their set but we all knew that rain storm was approaching.  So gutted Massive Attack didn't play after the false hope of a new rescheduling, especially knowing that Elizabeth Fraser & Horace Andy were backstage with them!  Managed a bit of Melt Banana but was just so over the weather by that point.   Friday was awesome, Rilo Kiley were so much fun.  Never been the biggest Cure fan but made the effort for them after Thursday & Robert Smith sounds like he did back in the 80s.  PinkPantheress & Viagra Boys were also great.   The highlight for me was Sudan Archives on the Saturday, she was stunning & with the Olivia Rodrigo surprise set too it made up for the Thursday sh*t show.  Dijon & Knocked Loose also superb.   Shoutout to Cardiacs on the Tuesday too, they were so LOUD, played a storming set.    
    • OK, never mind, I'll take normal Nine Inch Nails.
    • Probably my least favourite of the five editions I've been to, but still plenty good enough for me to go again. Weirdly, I was just totally running out of stamina a lot earlier into the night than I remember happening in the past. I feel like I missed a lot of the weirder sets on the smaller stages as I was just totally cooked. Not Primavera's fault, obviously. Maybe I'm just getting old - or maybe I need to pace my drinking better...   Anyway - is David Byrne a realistic get for next year? Certainly hoping so.
    • watching clips of the cure in Barcelona, wow 2 hours 25 minute set. That's gonna be tough on the Sunday but can't bloody wait for it
