Headliners 2015

[Mardy]

G&R are the fucking enemy. Always have been always will.

[LondonTom]

hehehe, this is all very similar to Kremlinwatching during the cold war. Trying to work out who's in and who's out, basically on the strength of fuck all.

At least we know the real reason you come back now....

Some good and valid points here.

I've found the lack of communication in general from the festival this year rather odd. The balance window had come and (nearly) gone with barely a mention on the official site.

Like this news article at the start? http://www.glastonburyfestivals.co.uk/2015-ticket-balance-payments-faq/

Half the country is still on holiday and possibly GFL !

So no announcements this we methinks

We're not all teachers and students with 2 weeks off!

I've only skimmed the last 4/5 pages cause I'm in work but how can Guns & Roses possibly fall into 'solo with a backing band'?

[The Nal]

Trouble is they wouldn't let that happen. sound would be pulled way before then.

True it would never happen. Just pointing out that some of these twat frontmen can inadvertently put on great shows. Like the Scream in 05.

'Cos it's Rose and hired guns? They're not a serious consideration though, thankfully.

More like people are so desperate for the line up, we have now resorted to talking about GNR!

[sime]

Hands up .. Who'd take Flo and her machine right now as the 3rd headliner if it meant we got a line up tonight?

(This could be a bargaining tactic used in future to ease the pain of a weak booking!)

Not me. Hands way down.

[Chazeboy]

We need to see the gfl website change a bit before they have the release, like in previous years or that might have changed now

[jeffie]

Michael definitely stretches the truth a little sometimes from what I've heard.

Pensioner stretches truth shock!

Sounds like my dad.

Lol

[Mardy]

be.

hehehe. Thanks. Too enraged to type properly

[brettredmayne]

Got excited seeing all these pages and still no news

[The Nal]

Last thing on Axl.

You can't deny that he always brings a show!

[tevaburger]

since we're swapping GNR experiences...i was at this gig...well the first bit, the Giants Stadium portion. lovely august evening in 1988. and after them it was Deep Purple and then Aerosmith (when they hadn't turned into ballad top 40 band)...anyone at the Donnington gig at the end of this clip? they were great. only time i've seen them.

Its interesting to note that the Kanye and Foos threads have been off page 1 for a long time. No one seems to really give a shit.

Prince gets confirmed, I'm going to be like that mental annoying Springsteen fan Jens from a few years back, I warn you now.

Unlike the Arcade Fire thread last year, which was still on page one months after the festival.

[DomDom1984]

David Bowie would be unbelievable. There aren't that many acts who would get an overwhelmingly positive response, but he would. Well, obviously apart from on social media.

[Chazeboy]

Haha excellent

[DomDom1984]

I'm surprised at Kanye's thread not being bigger, but surely in the case of both, that's not necessarily a bad thing? Means there's not much argument over either.

[pentura]

Does anyone remember that thing from the sales where you'd get a notification if the site changed from the back end?

Would it work now?

[The Nal]

Theres nothing worse than no being ignored. Being loved or hated is at least being acknowledged.

[mr gumby]

Just in case anyone is seriously thinking about GnR, don't forget Emily's comment about 'the Foos are the rock headliners this year'.

I mentioned GnR a few weeks back as a joke, as I'd seen a rumour that Axl and Slash were talking again, but even if they did decide to play again, it would take time to organise. Next year? Who knows, but surely not this year.

[JoeyT]

I'm at a loss at why GnR are being discussed.

[DomDom1984]

It's pretty clear that Kanye West gets a lot of both. So I'm not sure how that fits your theory.

[DomDom1984]

Oh, and most festivals won't touch GNR.
