If that was in England, then fuck me, if I get into an American Studies degree with a year abroad, I'm gonna be all over American fests when I go

Friday was very good for my tastes, but as Will said, its far from strong in the US market. The Saturday at Coachella was seriously shit (bar the top couple of acts), and the Sunday was average at best. That line-up had solid headliners across the board & great depth.

Well it's not sold out which it used too, but there's no way to detect if its worse then the other years that haven't sold out. If it was 1 fest aka t in the park then I'm sure it would have.

Also, that's a tactic to get more people at the club nights and therefore profit. More people at the clubs will exceed profit then the cost of a few tickets.

I think the reason why ticket sales are slow this year is because more people seem to be waiting a while to buy tickets; I know a lot of people who want to go to Reading but haven't raised the money yet and aren't in any rush to as they don't think it's going to sell out any time soon. I reckon ticket sales will remain sluggish until about two months before the festival where sales will spike.

difference is when did they actually last give away tickets... disregarding that mayor of the festival bullshit last year. also excluding the win a vip upgrade because you would need a ticket to enter that.

    • Pretty sure some will be more than that. 
    • It's a shame for lots of bands cancelling tours due to poor ticket sales but I'm one of the culprits as I'll wait now closer to the time as theres always a chance of a seat filler or Twickets for half the price. If the bands charged a reasonable price to start with then they'll sell out regardless. Look at Paul Heaton, £39+fees tickets for arenas where some bands are charing £150+fees for the same arena. Prices for drinks in those places is a joke too so many pick and choose.
    • Might just wait it out for the summer shows that got mentioned tbh
    • Good on him i think, though it depends on whether he really does love the music (like Steve Davis) or is just moving into it as a bizarre career option (Gok Wan, from the ten mins i observed from the side of a field once, stood there with no idea whats going on) 
    • Better Man, Black maybe. I guess was the same for Metaliica.   They do have a history of bringing on some big guests, for example Pete Townsend and play Who numbers. My gut is they would prob pull it off but they'd get a section of crown leave after a bit. I don't see it happen even though I'd love it.    Other Stage would be immense.   I seem to remember Emily Eavis watching at a Wembley arena night and if it was regular gig with more random unknown fan favourite songs she saw she prob thought not suitable for Pyramid.
