The Cure, Coldplay, Van Morrison and Elvis Costello have headlined the most at 3 times each.

and Seize the Day

yeah, but no one cares about a band who like to be introduced wrongly as previous Glasto headliners.

They bored the shit out of me this summer. And last summer. They run the risk of making Mumfords look entertaining.

[eFestivals]

the point wasnt whether you liked them (and I dont care whether you do or not). As I recall, this was a thread about bands that had played several times and Seize the Day have - they've played 2 or 3 times every year since 1997 at least

do they offer therapy after the fest too?

[eFestivals]

you're on form today, aren't you?

I'll take that as a no, then.

[abdoujaparov]

[eFestivals]

what's that wooshing sound?

[salvador wali]

to be honest, I think you're too far gone for therapy, but I know a couple of people who may be willing to try something

[abdoujaparov]

Most posters on here i can work out when they are joking/sarcastic/serious, but i can never quite make my mind up whether you are being sarcastic or just being a miserable b*s*a*d

_{Mike Scott / The Waterboys, must have notched up a fair few appearances.}

Otway probably goes back even further (tho he missed one a few years back, due to his kids or something)

John (Attila) is an exceedingly nice man.

i haven't ever met him, but he did come up from wherever it is he lives (Sussex?) to perform pre match for us at FC United (currently residing in Bury) a few years back, at his own expense.

that's a long way to go to read a few poems to a few dozen Mancs. a class act.

Yep, it's Sussex .... Southbourne I think.

He also very kindly came and performed at the Glastonbury World Cup that was done via here at Glasto a few years ago, which didn't work out very well due to dead batteries in the megaphone, but he still tried his hardest, bless him.

I guess he did that for you cos he's got a big love of footie himself - a Brighton & Hove fan - and he's done a number of poems around football over the years. I know there's been one about the old B&H FC owner (I forget his name) who raped the club of its assets. And he did one about Aldershot (my club) when the old club folded about 20 years ago too.

Sure, they were shit

It took 16 seasons to get back to league two ... ..And they still are.

[abdoujaparov]

[abdoujaparov]

I reckon it's both simultaneously

Southwick, that's what I meant to post. I've remembered now.

Hoping for a big Huw Lloyd Langton tribute next summer to send him off nicely. Would be a fitting tribute as he must have been to most of them.
