I'm sure you were on here a few weeks ago pushing this idea that a throwaway comment under a video posted on their website 18 months ago means they're nailed on. It really doesn't. I can tell from the login name that you're desperate for it to be them, and they may play, but that comment on their website is neither here nor there. I'd say what Yorke said today is far more of a pointer and that doesn't really say much concrete.

In all fairness i'm just suprised so much doubt has suddenly appeared around the stones.

People were alot more certain in december, but now people are starting to doubt it when the rumour is at it's highest, they could be playing coachella this year! If so that will heighten the chances even more.

This negativity has frightened me to say the least, I was so certain i'd be seeing the stones this year. Now i'm worried/sad :(

I seem to remember reading this is your first Glastonbury. If that's true, you might not be aware that along with Prince, Bowie, Radiohead and Dolly Parton, The Stones have been rumoured every year ever since time began. Even if they play, that will continue. There's very little special or out of the ordinary for them to be rumoured this year. Every year, media outlets will say its them.

it's usually quite random isn't it? a band usually leaks it themselves, or it seems to be on the verge of being leaked and so the organizers announce it suddenly. i imagine the first one will be announced quite soonish, and i imagine it'll be Arctics

The implication is that they've got an affiliation with the festival, having headlined twice, played the KOL secret set last year and Thom and Johnny playing the secret set the year before. Therefore the likelihood is that they'll play again (a la Coldplay) as they love the festival and the Eavii love them. The implication is not that they'll play the next one. (I'm not saying they won't, just that you can't presume they will on that comment).

    • I saw this just after it was posted yesterday, I barely paid attention to it. I didn't realise it had blown up in the way it has. I'm sure (kind of) that Sziget will be unaffected - it brings in billions of huf over a very short period. Its consumption, compared to the rest of Budapest, will be tiny in reality. That said, nothing wrong with encouraging people to use less energy whether it's now or in the future.
    • The eulogies are flooding in.   The list I've seen so far is Jenrick,  Hartley-Brewer, Hopkins, Lowe, Pearson   Tells you all you need to know about him...
