dentalplan Posted November 17, 2014 Report Share Posted November 17, 2014 If Saturday is generally the marquee headliner then Foos will be that. Even if they're sandwiched between classic acts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rose-Colored Boy Posted November 17, 2014 Report Share Posted November 17, 2014 If Saturday is generally the marquee headliner then Foos will be that. Even if they're sandwiched between classic acts. what about if there's another headliner that's bigger. (Adele) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dentalplan Posted November 17, 2014 Report Share Posted November 17, 2014 (edited) what about if there's another headliner that's bigger. (Adele) Oh. Forgot about her. Maybe but she'd be way more appropriate for Sunday night though wouldn't she? This is so trivial.

Rose-Colored Boy Posted November 17, 2014 Report Share Posted November 17, 2014 Oh. Forgot about her. Maybe but she'd be way more appropriate for Sunday night though wouldn't she? This is so trivial. more appropriate in tone yes but there's no way Adele wouldn't be the Saturday night headliner in terms of size for the TV audiences etc. but yes you're quite right it's trivial. not least because after the Band Aid mess I've lost all hope of Adele turning up anyway. Were Metallica last year's marquee headliner? don't forget Metallica only stepped into the Saturday night slot when Prince didn't want it - and he definetely would have been.

the wonderwhy Posted November 17, 2014 Report Share Posted November 17, 2014 Band Aid mess? She (supposedly) turned down appearing in an ego circle-jerk. Good on her, nobody seems upset except Bob Geldof. Hardly a mess... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dentalplan Posted November 17, 2014 Report Share Posted November 17, 2014 Were Metallica last year's marquee headliner? I'd say so. Biggest name (of the headliners) even if they're not the best liked of the trio. Band Aid mess? She (supposedly) turned down appearing in an ego circle-jerk. Good on her, nobody seems upset except Bob Geldof. Hardly a mess... Sounds like a mess to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hardly a mess... part of the story is that she isn't even answering calls from her manager at the moment. that doesn't sound like somebody who is going to headline Glastonbury in eight months time to me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If AC/DC play I see them being Saturday. Again, if AC/DC play, I see this. Fri - Fleetwood Mac/Florence Sat - AC/DC Sun - Foos Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

parsonjack Posted November 18, 2014 Report Share Posted November 18, 2014 I'd take them as headliners Those would imho be the best Pyramid headliners in the 13 years I've been going....I just can't see a stellar line up like that coming off tbh..... ....and which night would I dip out to avoid the queuing for Shangri-La?

yehbutnobut Posted November 18, 2014 Report Share Posted November 18, 2014 just an fyi, that 'fan funded' gig attempt in brum got cancelled. the way they acted I'm glad they didn't reply Literally just pledged for the Cornwall crowdfunder gig... Who acted like what if you don't mind me asking? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lharris92 Posted November 19, 2014 Report Share Posted November 19, 2014 All the way through the campaign people who had pledged money were abusive towards people who disagreed with it, basically acting like twats. And just after they cancelled it were demanding to know why and were blaming the foos saying they were only in it for the money. Don't get me wrong it was probably a minority of people doing this... Barely. But it was embarrassing to watch from afar, if they'd handled it in a good manner then it would have been fine. Check out the #nomoretouts on Twitter. By the way if it was for the fans, why were they allowing you to pledge for 4 or 6 tickets... Was basically asking for touts to put money forward as it was a no lose situation for them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dj_tim Posted November 19, 2014 Report Share Posted November 19, 2014 Can't decide whether to get tickets or not tomorrow. £71.50 is a lot of money for a band I'm 99% sure i'll be seeing on the Pyramid a week later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brettredmayne Posted November 19, 2014 Report Share Posted November 19, 2014 £5.50 postage too! I never know how they feel £5.50 can be justified. Will never cost see tickets any where near that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hurdy Posted November 19, 2014 Report Share Posted November 19, 2014 (edited) The group who manifested on twitter looked like a bunch of spoiled brats. Now all complaining they can't see their favourite band due to cost despite Mancheser being a few quid more and an hour and a half up the road. What they actually wanted was to see the Foo Fighters at the O2 Academy and have a guaranteed ticket. All this huff about touts is just that. Edit: should have said in reference to Iharris92's post about the Kickstarter gig Edited November 19, 2014 by hurdy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
5co77ie Posted November 19, 2014 Report Share Posted November 19, 2014 got a phone call from Miss 5co77ie Jnr - could I help her get tickets for Foos at Wembley on the Saturday, lots of F5 - passwords, her phoning through details (getting them wrong) - reminded me of Glastonbury ticket day it did.
