Mumford and Sons

Luck! P.s. Using wet sand rather than a pool ball minimises risk of creating a blood clot on the brain. Everyone wins.

cue millions of Bumford fans stinking out the festival.

[Ted Dansons Wig]

What exactly does a Mumford & Sons fan look or act like? As far as I can see they don't really have any passionate fans.

[Homer]

They wear suits and kipper ties, have quiffs and are called Tristrum and/ or Pippa

They won't be cancelling, surely? They're meant to be playing Bonaroo this weekend, and they haven't even pulled out of that yet. Their Glastonbury slot is seventeen days away.

[Cockney_Jesus]

I hope they don't pull out, that's a slot where I'm free to watch Cat Power, if they do pull out they could be replaced by somebody good and then they're guaranteed a spot for next year, cue millions of Bumford fans stinking out the festival.

word I've heard is that that the operation he's had is a very simple one, and that the promoters of their imminent USA shows aren't worried at all.

So it looks like Glasto will be no problem for Mumfords.

[Superscally]

Good for him.

Bad for us.

[Wanderlei]

I'm looking forward to Mumford. They're very atmospheric, and I think they'll go down well on the sunday night.

is he dead yet?

[Ratpat]

is he dead yet?

[russycarps]

Not yet, but those Mumford-hater rumours say he'll die in the next 100 years

[Ed209]

might be Mumford III and great grandsons though

Glad he's going to be ok. Everybody wishing him to not get better need to have a word with themselves. There's 61 other stages.

BONNAROO & US TOUR NEWS

Dear friends,

It is with great joy that we can announce that Ted has been discharged from hospital and is on the road to a full recovery. The surgery went well, and the excellent medical team helping him are very pleased with his progress. He has been nothing short of heroic in how he has handled the whole ordeal, and now it has been medically proved that he does indeed have a brain.

Today, however, also marks the end of our Summer Stampede Tour. We were hoping to have made it out by Bonnaroo this weekend. But it is with sadness that we have to announce the cancellation of our scheduled performances at both Bonnaroo and Telluride Festivals, and our show at Cricket Wireless Amphitheater in Bonner Springs, KS. If we could've we would've, you know that about us. We trust that you can respect our collective desire to encourage Ted to make a full recovery, and that this is based purely on the medical advice we have received.

On behalf of Ted, and all of us really, we would like to thank every one for their compassion and support at this time and we are very excited to get back out on tour as soon as we can.

Ted, Ben, Marcus and Win

Fair play to them for sticking by their mate.

They've massively gone up in my estimation.

[titusbungle]

Hope they play, if they don't I'd love to see Pulp but more likely to be Stone Roses

[sisco]

You really have to think this makes them pretty certain to cancel now!

[russycarps]

Yep. Even if he's 100% by the time the festival starts, they won't have had much practice for the biggest gig of their lives.

Exciting times!
