Headliners 2015

[st dan]

this is true, but i'd like to think that Rowntree - an intelligent chap by all accounts, and a solicitor - could find a better way of denying than a lie.

or maybe he has and i'm not smart enough to see it.

Are you trying to suggest that a solicitor wouldn't have the audacity to lie?!

If it is them, how can he avoid answering it without making it obvious? If he just dodged the question it would be obvious that he wasn't allowed to answer it.

Why's everyone getting wound up about down votes

Idk, but maybe as someone who is relentlessly targeting my posts of late you're just feigning ignorance and do actually know the answer to that? Pray do tell Edited April 30, 2015 by Zac Quinn

Can we not just take his answer as it was meant to be taken, as a 'no we aren't headlining'? Personally I'm not a Blur fan so hope they aren't at the festival.

[Dave85radiohead]

Thinking about it could it not be that someone they never thought they could get has been made available and that someone has been asked to drop down a slot? I know they refused to this for pink floyd but . . .? Could explain why the headliner's only been booked recently and why there are two big names

not at all, i'm suggesting that a solicitor would be able to evade a question with far more nuance and subtlety than saying "it's not us".

but, like i said, perhaps he did and i'm not noticing!

I knew it wound you up when you got me back a few times so I kept doing it. Then I enjoyed a post you done so gave up on my witch hunt. I'm looking for a new victim.

[kingcrawler]

I'm still thinking Blur will headline, though that's more because everyone else seems unlikely in at least one way. I do find him bringing up the dates Glastonbury book headliners a bit strange though.

Ah, I see! As a general rule it doesn't, just was a bit confused the other day when I found out that you and one other player who I don't remember even disagreeing with appeared to have something against me. No worries

[hulk mike]

Maybe there's no Sunday headliner, michael is going to invest the money in bringing back free milk for everyone

personally, i'm taking it at face value - that blur are not headlining. but then i'm not exactly a blur fan so i'm not trying to find the wiggle room in his statement.

but telling a porkie isn't on really, imo. it's one thing to go along with the conciet, but who is he fooling? the glastonbury-bound blur fans to whom his gig promoters hope to sell tickets that they otherwise may not bother with? ie, many people on here and elsewhere.

that, as they say around these parts, is a c**t's trick.

[brettredmayne]

We don't have many choices that fit so it would be strange if it's not Blur

No, cos everyone is ruled out then.

Don't forget peeps, whoever the headliner is, they're not being announced because of other shows they have. This piece of info I'm certain of.

Once again, you say "because of other shows they have", rather than "because of other shows they have which aren't sold out".. anything in this?

Does that just give us 3 choices then

Blur

Noel

Fleetwood mac

[neil999]

Did Metallica get asked if they were doing it?

[alframsey]

Ultimately this bit of information which will break my heart :'(

I only know they're not announced because they have other shows.

I don't know where those shows are, when those shows are, or how many tickets might have been sold for those other shows.

I only know that they have other shows.

So this particular nugget doesn't rule out Swift after all then, interesting. Edited April 30, 2015 by Zac Quinn

1/2 down votes is fine, not everyone is going to agree with your opinion. Just try not to beat 32. I'll never forget THAT post.

[The Placid Casual]

I actually listened through the whole ad to see if it was anything more than just promoting Pharrell stuff. It wasn't.

A lovely Super Furry Animals sesh going on ready for next week's show, log onto efests, all of a sudden, 'Pharrell Williams is a...'

Which post?

How many Reds did the lady who started the LINEUP thread get? The fallout from that was pretty brutal.
