Never sure why there's so much hate on newbie posts. These forum sites predominantly are for people to speculate and debate on people's wishes and the likelihood of bands appearing at festivals. Foals are at the level now where they could smash a set on the pyramid at least at sub-level, especially with a new album out soon. People are ignorant and blind if they genuinely think that Prince or Madonna are nailed-on headliners or that the line-up is out today. In reality none of us really have a clue and that's why it's so exciting.

Yep. People are just getting quite tetchy at the moment. Don't worry about it.

It's not.

She has a tupperware party with Jo Wiley on the Sunday.

I'm hoping you're right.

I know she's big, but personally I find her way overrated.

Mr Purple all the way for me. If not, I'll be found crawling round the unfair ground and Shangri La on Sunday/Monday morning

People so snobby on here,nothing wrong with foo fighters. They play there own music and write there own songs. but beacuse they happen to be popular people sem to be able to slag em off. and for the record im not a big foo fighters fan. Dave Grohl is a great musician .

I can enjoy a bit of foo Fighters, but i'd say you've stretched things waaaay too far.

They're really only today's version of a three chord Status Quo. With less social comment.

Obviously you're not a musician, some of the time signatures they use, the complexity of the bass riffs and drum fills are really quite impressive given their popularity. I'd say of the mainstream rock bands, it's probably only Biffy Clyro (oh yeah and Muse) that out-do the Foos musically, especially live. I'll agree that they're not exactly Dream Theater, but to call them Status Quo is a country mile off.

People take the piss out of Quo, but it's not like they really only use three chords. :rolleyes:

If Madonna is such a rumour how come she isn't included on the Glasto rumours page?

I've been meaning to say this, apparently she's strongly rumoured and many many on here think it's either her or Prince yet Neil hasn't even listed her as a rumour, either he knows it's definitely not her or knows it is and has been asked to keep quiet

as I've said, I've had what should be perfect word that it's not her.

Like everything I hear I can't gaurantee it's correct because people have 'covering up' as a reason to lie, tho I do think what I've heard is on the money.

I actually think some of the mosh pit arguments are more pertinent this year as it happens. The front of the Pyramid had been more-or-less evacuated for Metallica last year, the only people still in there seemed to be metal fans who knew what was going down. Whereas it'll be rammed for the Foos, I can see a bit of conflict happening during, say, All My Life. Just a thought.

    • Oh im sure - theres loads    but just as an observation from the film, If you have not seen it yet im sure you would love it 
    • Reading seems to have sold really well this year from the posts they've made re. tickets. I don't think it's going anywhere anytime soon, I think for the vast majority in here (myself included) it just doesn't cater to us. That said, if I was still under the age of 18 I'd be thrilled with the Reading lineup this year (not so much Leeds). 
    • I don't think it's that bad and still very good value. Tickets for the headliners alone make it worthwhile if you are into them.
    • Something like..   Rosalía - Beach House - Lola Young   Björk - Massive Attack - Doja Cat   NIN - Olivia Dean - David Byrne   Also.. Interpol, Slayyter, Barry B, The Promise Ring or Cap‘n Jazz (for the American Football/Voxtrot/Texas Is The Reason slot)..   ….and I hope they bring back teki latex for the cupra-closing-party. Peggy Gou was so generic
    • Yeah I get it, and totally agree.    I could post a long piece on the differences, but I reckon it would send most people over the edge
