The Queen Is Dead!

And other such nonsense. It's been a few years since I've been but I imagine this has now completely 'died' out now seeing as everyone is glued to their smart phones.

I do remember the last festival rumor that I heard. Everyone was saying Michael Jackson was dead....! As if!!!

Rumours still fly, but not the same

Thought this was a Smiths post, but it's not, still anyone fancy being Morrissey or The Smiths publisher...

Used to be Cliff Richard every year when I first started going. Then there was the rumour that Rod Hull had died falling off his roof while adjusting his TV aerial so he could watch the World Cup...

You'd think so, but the amount of people who believed Daft Punk were doing a secret set...(not the same as a dead rumour I suppse...but you know!)

I even managed to convince my camp mates that when I went off by myself on Saturday night to enjoy the nightime I saw them on Arcadia!

That Michael Jackson rumor was probably the last one as even though Smartphones were on the rise they hadn't taken hold and it was almost impossible to get a 3G signal on site. I remember hearing that rumor at a pizza bar and you could see everyone furiously texting and calling people trying to find out if it was true, turned out it was true and it was very surreal... though the whole site basically became a Michael Jackson party so I guess we could've been at a worse place to find out the news.

Surprised me actually, didn't think Glastonbury did cover bands.

Bootleg Beatles headlined the acoustic stage two years out of three

[GlastoSimon]

You've all proved me wrong very quickly

Even went to see the Bootleg Beatles for a bit in 2010, how did I forget them?

They are good. I sacked off Jay-Z at IoW to go and watch them and they were ace.

[guypjfreak]

hey i love the queen

[rexclark]

Columbo's death was more shocking than Michael Jackson's tbh.

Maybe this year it will be about the jail sentence passed down on a former Glasto performer - or reaction to a not guilty verdict (keeping my options open).
