No it's his tweet in reply to someone saying reef

Oh yeah, my bad, someone else did Tweet about Placebo so that threw me.

I feel like his Placebo comment is a little tongue in cheek though?

I'm very much up for different versions/interpretations of songs. Hendrix did it. Wilco does it... it can be done with a feeling of enthusiasm and fun.

Further discussion in June over a few whiskeys on me gents?

Tonyo is due an appearance. Overdue.

Here we go peeps:

GLASTONBURY already has two huge US acts booked to headline this summer but MICHAEL EAVIS has looked closer to home for the perfect band to close the festival....

I can reveal it will be THE WHO bringing the Worthy Farm event to an end with a spectacular Pyramid Stage performance.

Rock legends ROGER DALTREY and PETE TOWNSHEND have somehow kept the news under wraps . . . until now, with music fans struggling to crack the mystery of who Michael and daughter EMILY EAVIS would bag for the final slot.

PRINCE, FLEETWOOD MAC, MUSE, AC/DC, OASIS and BLUR have all been rumoured for the prestigious headline spot but it’s mod legends The Who who will take to the stage on June 28.

And they’re likely to have top-notch support from an artist they’ve influenced, with PAUL WELLER and NOEL GALLAGHER in the frame to play the set before.

A festival insider said: “The Who booking has been kept quiet because the band are also playing a Hyde Park gig for the British Summer Time festival so the announcement will be made in a few weeks.

“The band are still one of the best live groups and are currently on their 50th-anniversary tour, so it’s bound to be an amazing show.

“There’ll also be support from an artist like Paul Weller or Noel Gallagher. It will be a dream night for rock fans.”

Roger and Pete played a triumphant headline set in 2007 but are so desperate to play again they are rearranging a Paris show originally scheduled for that Sunday.

The booking means there’s something for all ages, with FOO FIGHTERS and KANYE WEST topping the bill on the Friday and Saturday.

And The Who’s show is sure to be a big hit with songs such as My Generation, Won’t Get Fooled Again, Baba O’Riley, Substitute and The Kids Are Alright echoing across the fields.

I thought that at first then spotted there is a par which says this:

    • It would be piss-easy for a bot to manage, though.
    • I've heard that ticket sales for other events that use the same system have included the question 'are you still there?' on each window/browser you have with a place in the queue. If you don't confirm you are, it'll assume you're not and that place will drop.   I've no idea if Glasto/See will adopt this, but it would be challenging to keep on top of with many windows open.
    • People who're struggling are already priced out, so I don't think a bump in price will affect who attends. There'll still be a cross section, leaning young. I also think they'll do a soft breaking of the £400 ceiling, keeping the ticket price just below but having postage take it over. Next year the ticket itself will be over that threshold.

    • Not sure if this has been mentioned but new La Roux album out November - was meant to play in 2020 but hasn't found her way back onto a lineup. If any excuse just to hear this absolute banger on the fields next year!
