If Macca plays, those who were there in 2004 will be unbearable on here telling us it'll never match that evening!

Mind you, I'd be doing the same thing if Blur were playing again.

Why does this conversation always start, it's so boringggggg

Lets go back to headliners!

Arctics - Stones/Mumford - Mccartney

discuss.

Just a cat? That mutha's a Jedi! That's hardly "just" a cat - his midi-chlorians must be through the roof! I'd like to hope he wasn't judgemental and arrogant, being a Jedi and all that, but he did look kind of cocky mid way through.

Christ. He could be a Sith. Troubling, this is.

There are some mighty hostile types on these boards. I do apologise for my wildly offensive comment about.... wanting to walk around the site, what was I thinking?

i'd love Kylie. so many good songs. i thought she was gonna headline in '10 / '11 but that didn't pan out (apart from her guest slot with Scissor Sisters)

although not quite as at the top of her game as she was when she was last supposed to headline i think she'd still be a fantastic headliner

Just as much hostility towards people who want to watch bands. Which apparently is a sin at glasto to some people.

Anyway for headliners I really don't think the stones is going to happen.

Possibly Macca was asked to step in for the stones or play the sunday, and decided if he's playing one show, he might as well play a few, hence these europe dates. I mean he doesn't need months to sell out a venue and it would reduce the overheads per show. Plus seems a lot of effort to rehearse for one show

I think, just like the original post, I didn't articulate myself properly.

The whole 'you see bands at glasto? Whats wrong with you!' crew really gets on my nerves and a post that essentially said 'I feel smug about getting a fish curry instead of watching bands' implies, to me, some sort of condescending attitude. That somehow watching bands and enjoying it is the wrong way to 'do glasto' and you're smug about it because you 'know' how you do glasto is better'.

Maybe you didn't mean smug, but if you did then that post belongs in the glasto cliche thread

Here's a novel thought maybe there should be a separate cheaper type of ticket that would just let you into all the 'non-music' area because the bands is why you pay £200

    • 90,000 on a single for day or over the weekend?   if it was for the whole weekend that’s disastrous   Given camping didn’t sell out unless they in effect transferred a lot of camping captivity to Chappell Roan day tickets 90,000 is absolute capacity there I think, so it would be hard to believe   i think it’s from the year before but the TPD tv footage when the killers are headlining makes it look like it’s at best half full
    • A part of me thinks weirdly they might hold off on Chaka/Robbie until they have a year where nobody else who fits the bill is available. This slot takes a very specific set of criteria, and I can't imagine they're flushed with options who are on tour and would take the smaller payday every year. Both Chaka and Robbie have expressed interest in doing it, so they're bankers for a year where fewer options are available. Which may well be 2027.
    • Chaka and Robbie got to have decent chances due to previous reports
    • Chaka is a west holts act all day long and yes please (as part of my vaguely purple day that I am still trying to make happen).   Teatime? Bryan Adams.
