So are Fleetwood Mac lying about Glasto?

[Justiceforcedave]

....so first we have the mysterious dates falling around Glastonbury weekend also seemingly ruling out BST (because of the sheer number of London dates)....then we have Mick Fleetwoods faceook page (see leggins post below). Are the Mac lying to to sell tickets for their tour and are actually booked for 2015?

Mick Fleetwood's Facebook page has a glaring typo on the tour dates for the 22nd and 24th June. It says Bristol but the dates are for London. Someone has the itinerary wrong maybe they are staying in Bristol a little later than that.......

SOMETHING is going on..not sure what tho, neilefests has said nothing on this has he?

[Matt42]

I think they havent been booked, but will be booked come next year.

[Justiceforcedave]

Yes Neil has been very quiet on the whole thing.

I've voted yes in more hope than anything else,I haven't seen a headliner at the pyramid since macca so would like to see one,the other names being banded about aren't doing it for me.

[Boopickledaddy]

Would be good if they are. Fingers crossed

[Leggins]

I voted Yes. Something is definitely going on. It's more hope than anything though.

[grumpyhack]

I also voted yes. Mainly heart ruling head, but I'm working on them wanting to sell out their own tour before diluting possible sales with the admission that they'll be at Glasto as well.

I'm pinning the "not available" quote to be down to cost.

I don't think they're available at the price Glastonbury could offer them.

Therefore - sort it out Eavis and offer them what they want.

[Wooderson]

The Mac will play.

[Bisque]

Maybe still negotiating their fees.

[Redwinevino]

How many acts have said no we aren't headlining to then gone on to say haha fooled ya we are playing??

How many are asked that question?

Pretty sure The Rolling Stones did.

i was pretty sure - tho a guess - they were telling porkies until Mick was on radio 2. Then I started to believe him.

I've said this elsewhere on these boards. i've not been quiet.

I'm starting to veer back towards Mick telling porkies, but who knows? Mick's sister owns one of the farms next to Michael, so it's quite possible he's having some time off to stay with her and to enjoy the festival at the same time (while not playing it). Anything is possible, but what's actually going to happen is uncertain.

[Zoo Music Girl]

I was a definite no, but now that Bristol thing has got me all confused. So fuck it, I've said yes.

I think they are well naughty if that's the case though and I wouldn't much want to see them as a result.

[neil999]

so...they aint doing BST

[eFestivals]

so...they aint doing BST

not necessarily so. The Sunday is possible.

Friday for Glasto - if it's happening - seems the likely day, based on me hearing they'd have been Friday if they'd playing this year.

no idea TBH, but I expect it will be.

Was there the same plan for this year (2014)? That McBusted gig always looked like a late fill-in.

That was the first announcement.

Could the Mac just be avoiding shows on the BST weekend so that it doesn't clash with their own dates and so they can flog tickets to people who're also at BST / Glasto.
