The Foos Not a Rumour?

i used to love Foo Fighters. still think their first three albums are pretty good (although haven't listened to them in years - might download them now actually) but they've been incredibly bog-standard for a long time now. could never really hate them though, and every once in a while i'll actually quite like a song of theirs (that Rope from their last album was good!)

Not discounting that some people might. I didn't. My partner and I went for the first time this year and were blown away by it. Since then we're now expecting, and selfishly but tactfully I used the Foo's rumour to bend her arm & release me for next year, bearing in mind if all goes well our new arrival will be just over a month old. Since which I bagged a ticket & any references to Glasto 2014 are now banned in our household to avoid an atmosphere.

I'm confused. Before the ticket sale the Foos were up there as one of the bookies favourites but now seem to be left off of the eFest rumours entirely. Kasbian, Oasis & Bowie were also favourites at the time and they're still on the list. I know rumour or no rumour, nothing's really ever a given, but not even being on the list is a tad gutting for myself, seeing as it's one of the main reasons I managed to get a green card for next year from the Mrs as she understands that Dave's my only man crush if I were to be that way inclined. They are also fecking amazing live.

Anyhoo... Can anyone shed any light on this? Or as i'm new to the forum & 2013 being my first ever Glasto, is it common for the headliners to be announced last minute?

Thanks in advance.

1 month old? Is this your first? My first was 3 months old this year and despite listening to Worthy FM all weekend, I'm really glad I didn't go.

Seriously, having a 1 month old baby is HARD, I couldn't have left my wife too deal with our on her own!

    • live music / main stage will generally end around 11pm but theres dj’s and late goings on right till 4am if you are so inclined.   Drinks are about £7.50 a pint probably and yes theres lots of mixed drinks / spirits / cocktails available to buy   wonderful festival, back for my third year in a row and 4th overall
    • If anyone sees Lakefest this weekend on any sites please post here, I’ve got alerts set. Been on TFG in recent years and not sold out yet.

    • So we've signed a Horny Czech, and Bruno's turned up the training camp instead of doing Isak's nonsense.   Still not sure I believe Bruno's staying mind, but glad he's not doing the sh*t Arsenal are asking him to do to lower the price. If they want him they can stump up.   My suspicion is that whichever of Madrid/Man City don't start next season with Rodri will go for Bruno, and one of them will come in while Arsenal have f**ked about trying to get him cheap, which while I absolutely want to keep him, would still be good enough bants and a nice middle finger that I wouldn't mind it so much. I just wish we'd report Arsenal for tapping up.   If rumours are to be believed, we're after 2 more defensive signings, and an attacking player, on top of a replacement if Bruno leaves, having already signed a LW, 2 CMs, a GK, and some youth players. Huge churn, but apart from a couple of Bazou Toure's games for Ivory Coast at the world cup, I've not seen any of them play. Over 2 summers we've basically changed our entire team aside from the CBs.
