i don't usually go along with Matt's strange theories but that's kind of how i saw it as well (for no particular reason). thought they were nailed on for R/L tbh so it hadn't even crossed my mind that Glastonbury might be an option for them. bit underwhelming if true

edit: ah just noticed he didn't say headlining, although i assumed that's where they'd play

What I mean really is that Glastonbury are very unlikely to have a major festival headliner in a lower slot at the festival because of the exclusivity and pay and what not, and it's happened more times that it's the other way round like a V sub or a TITP sub headlining Glastonbury. So I couldn't really see The Libertines being a R+L headliner but not big enough for Glastonbury headliner.

I sort of get the feeling they might have not been offered headline at R+L so they're doing sub/equivalent at both Glastonbury and Reading and Leeds... if this is true of course. We were pretty sure they were doing R+L a week or so ago because of that newspaper article plus they're strongly rumoured on here.

I can't believe he actually used Photobucket

Nothing wrong with it!

Will likely sub Glastonbury than headline I guess, they didn't sell all 3 Ally Pally Dates did they? (Can't remember about BST but I only use not selling that out to slate Taylor Swift =p).

Kind of makes sense Reading would wait to have them , if the album is any good/glastonbury is triumph they become headliners.

    • Cool, if potentially completely exhausting, idea.
    • We don't have any choice but I don't need a t-shirt for it! 🙂    On the bright side, it gets it out of the way for a nice 5 year run... notwithstanding wars, new contagious diseases and apocalypse.
