This whole 'dropping' mularky, you know "dropping her album", "dropping the line up", where does that come from?

It seems a fairly new thing to me, one which I've added to my list of irrational anoyances.

From a great height? PR stunt init, Kanye etc. climb to the top of the Shard and drop the first few promo copies that are pressed.

Similar with the Glastonbury line up, the Eavi drop the names from a passing plane in February and they have the staff treasure hunt them to make up the poster. Which is why its a variable date every year.

Am torn between hoping for Madonna or P*****...and worrying that it is Foals.

I feel we've has our big headline announcements and the third headliner will be announced with the rest of the line up in an attempt to avoid a backlash.

or alternatively, I've already told you in a perfectly straight manner, and you're all choosing to ignore it and make up your own inventions instead?

Well it is good fun! It's P*****!

Don't join the 'Glasto Chat' group on facebook

there's someone every minute claiming the lineup is dropping soon.

This guy has just posted the lineup is coming at 6pm and people are all believing him... even though he's like the 800th person this week to claim inside knowledge...

In the michael eavis question and answer session at the end of last year I asked about P..... and Michael said he was not allowed to talk about him , so even with Michael not having input in the bands booked ( as some think ) maybe I shouldnt believe all thats said in this regard . Im still going to go with the purple one ( just the way he said it and maybe I cant read body language )

    • I'd assume he's out of the nominal price range, but... stranger things have happened. Bit Marmite, isn't he, though?
    • Know that it isn't unheard of for a band to headline Glastonbury - for I assume that is all Fontaines would accept now - and play their own stadium/outdoor shows in the same summer, but it feels unusual for British/Irish acts, no?
    • Is anyone attending the Morcheeba/Faithless gig(s) on 10th? Our flight time has been brought forward slightly and, although I can't imagine we'd get there in time for Morcheeba, I think Faithless is doable. 
    • I Was There the last time Kyie appeared to do this - 2018ish at APE.  What a treat.  What do you think of the current setlist? Am seeing him next Friday, all being well.
    • I havnt even seen the booking page since 2018 i think, its been absolutely brutal - prior to that i was 'the fella with the knack of sorting out everyone's tickets' cos i'd lead with the groups and the organisation of it all, and tended to be the first one through and sorting out a great swathe of us, and now i'm a know-nothing bum again 😄
