Swine_Glasto2014 Posted November 7, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 7, 2014 Nick Fleetwood is live on there now and he announced a tour in May and June.. And said at the end quite a big thing about glastonbury but started with we shall most definitely not be doing Glastonbury 2015. Making a point that they are massively rumoured and people have bought tickets based on there appearance. Definitely not doing it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jamesrfisher Posted November 7, 2014 Report Share Posted November 7, 2014 ME says they are not, Mick Fleetwood says they are not. Two negatives mate a positive so they are playing after all! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Woffy Posted November 7, 2014 Report Share Posted November 7, 2014 Slightly arrogant on MF's behalf if he thinks people bought tickets on the basis they though FM would be there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Nal Posted November 7, 2014 Report Share Posted November 7, 2014 (edited) £130 a general admission ticket in the US! wow they must still have some drug habit, and sure are in it for the mullah! Or you can buy a "front row meet and greet with Mick" ticket for $900. Or just the standard "meet and greet" (no front row) for $750. Depending on the venue/city the "pauper" tickets can be up to $230 They should just ask Stevie. Edited November 7, 2014 by The Nal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1waveydavey Posted November 7, 2014 Report Share Posted November 7, 2014 I don't listen to R2 as a rule but a friend sent me a text saying I should listen. I heard what MF said and what he said about Glastonbury was pretty fair I thought. He said he thought it was great and well loved, he went on to say there had been a lot of rumours they were playing and that people may well have bought tickets thinking FM were playing and he wanted to put the record straight. Regardless of how much anybody on here likes them or not, they are hugely popular and its pretty reasonable to think some people may have bought tickets hoping they were playing. I don't understand the mentality on here some days I really don't.. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beodeejay Posted November 7, 2014 Report Share Posted November 7, 2014 (edited) So, crown an enviable career with a greatest hits spanning Pyramid slot... or go for even more cash with an exclusivity clause ... Shame. Wonder how many in the upper realms ( Springsteen, Neil Young, Stevie W, Metallica, Bowie, Who etc etc) have regretted doing Glastonbury, once the dust has settled. Many others have played Hyde Park as well as Glastonbury. Shame. Edited November 7, 2014 by beodeejay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only the obsessives like us on this forum would have even known they were rumoured. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only the obsessives like us on this forum would have even known they were rumoured. I agree it probably wasn't a major factor but I do know some 'normals' who knew FM were rumoured and were pretty swayed by it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaledonianGonzo Posted November 7, 2014 Report Share Posted November 7, 2014 Obsessive Fleetwood Mac fans would have certainly heard the rumours. It would have been a gamble to buy on that basis, sure - but you're only down a tenner if the line-up is announced without them and you opt to get a refund.

russycarps Posted November 7, 2014 Report Share Posted November 7, 2014 (edited) I dont imagine the hardcore FM fanbase are the type of people who would want to camp at a festival like glastonbury, especially since a world tour has been announced. The tiny number of people who are obsessive enough to go to a festival just to see them would then have to get through the ticket buying process which would reduce their number further. I'd be surprised if there were even 10 people who have paid a deposit just to see FM. I dont think FM fans are in the same league as the bruce springsteen or U2 nutters. For a start there have been none on this forum posting grainy youtube footage from the 80s.... Edited November 7, 2014 by russycarps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

5co77ie Posted November 7, 2014 Report Share Posted November 7, 2014 I wonder if MF didn't say that because they've used that to sell themselves to festivals across Europe in the summer, assuming they are playing any. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
