I got really excited when the emails came through about this tour, but at £54 + fees I think its just too much. Which is a real shame as I LOVE the chilis. Not long now till the new album though :)

1 Tix for SHEFF!,A bit pricey,but another sign of the times i guess,and itle be worth it seen as i am a massive fan of thiers.

ive yet to see them standing at their own gig,i sae them in manchester 2006 but was seated.

I actually got to see JOhn Frusciantes last gig which was the leeds festival 2007. People complained that they jammed to much and didnt play under the bridge,but if people watch back they played a decent setlist,sounded good and showed you what you dont get on cd,them jamming out!.( ithink people didnt like the s.a songs,and the band didnt go mental onstage as the reading gig had sound problems and they had just come to the end of doing a massive tour and 3 albums without a break)

Ive always wantd glasto to book them but seems like loads of people got hate for the chilis,and eaviss are said to not be keen on them,but they could look at it as a headliner that has never played before but who are massively popular and very talented/exciting live when on form.

Also the rhcp seem to be of the right kind of people to go with the glasto ethos,flea has a free school of music for underprivalged kids!,surely eavis must be down with that!.

Thier new album is guna be quite different with josh klinghoffer replacing john frusciante.

And forver many people dislike them theirs a hell of a lot of people who do like them!.

Not to fussed if they never play glasto,but glasto can only choose from a small group of headliners which obvs get smaller by the year as they use up more of the few big headliners.(unless the recycle their headliners,which i dont think they would want to do too much)

sounds alright to me(but i am massive fan so ye)

I really dont think the band were that bad live at any time,maybe some times the setlists arent the best for the moderate fan and the energy of the band is low due to them doing to many big tours without decent breaks inbetween dates.

at the time i remember coming back to our campsite and everyone saying they were really good,then when we got back and a few people said they werent good the others who previously said they enjoyed it suddenly bandwaggoned onto hating them and dissing the performance.

Why does everyone seem to think they're already signed to soni? Just cos they said they were looking at getting them?

And the I've gotta agree about being opinions of the R&L shows have gotten much worse through time. I remember all my friends coming back from Leeds and opinions were all between 'good' and 'a bit boring', but no-one gave off the the impression that it was bad enough to get the amount a negativity it gets now.

Also after a 4 year hiatus hopefully they should have a bit of on-stage energy,

    • f**king horrendous and seems they couldn’t run an egg and spoon race.  zero info and the crush waiting to get in to see Massive Attack was potentially disasterous. Zero info, no stewards at all and was told that the whole evening was cancelled, when we got to the exit. Because it rained. First time attendee and i’ve got onsay, i’m far from impressed. Scalping bastard taxis asking €37 plus for an €11 fare too. Wonderdul.
    • Rumours are it's called The Lost Tour. In the US in September. Ireland in November (so UK+Europe a good bet around November/early December). 
    • Hey guys, is there a group going for any solo y not goers this year?? I couldn’t miss out once I saw the acts but it’s just me and would be great to meet some others:))
    • After deciding to abandon the festival, here's a few of my thoughts (mostly negative tbf).    On the positive side - was it just me or were there a few more urinals than last year? Seemed to help the queues at the loos a bit from what i saw. Plus they had at least had some foresight and had a few more covered areas in the VIP areas.    Now on the negatives.  The weather was admittedly pretty crap but it wasn't apocalyptic. How the actual f**k are bits of the main stage falling off in those conditions?  Then the communication was awful, there's a load of people who left the site because they were told by security guards/other personnel that there would be no more acts on the main stage this evening.  You have an app Primavera, use it! Yes, there's a shitload going on I'm sure but communication with the festivalgoers should be one of the top priorities. You failed.    And I'm not usually somebody who buys into the whole "oh this is hugely unsafe and it's lucky people weren't hurt" narrative, but all the above led to movements of people that were genuinely unsafe.  Evacuating Mordor entirely (again... Why???) and then having a horde of people trying to get in because they thought they were going to Massive Attack was insane.  And given a lot of people basically abandoned ship around 10.30pm the crush at both the exit to the festival and the entrance to the Metro was pretty dangerous.   Conditions happen, most people will get that....but the contingencies have to be better. 
    • You'd think that something like bad weather was in the basics of festival planning. After the shitshow of Madrid, you'd think they'd learnt their lesson, apparently not...
