So are Fleetwood Mac lying about Glasto?

[Thearg]

I found Bestival a pain in the arse to get to and would never go again so its a definate no.

Shame they took the money over Glastonbury.

[phillyfaddle]

Neil Young headlined both IOW and Glasto in 2009, He was great at G (I was there) and rubbish at IOW (I was told). Fleetwood Mac may play both. But I doubt it.

"We've always wanted to come to the UK to play The Isle of Wight Festival, and so we are delighted that in 2015, we are finally making it happen!"

So Glastonbury isn't as important?

*EDIT I don't doubt it any more. Saw the release that said IOW would be their only festival appearance in 2015.

Strange choice.

[rawaudioinput]

IOW is the worst festival I've been to, considered going to see X-Men in the town centre during the day, there's that little to do

[Ipayne]

Definitely not in it for the money then...

[Bisque]

Sailed to Yarmouth. Cowes, Newport, Totland bay, Bembridge & went for a stag do in Ryde/Shanklin, there's plenty to do on the IoW.

[TomViolence]

I wonder if IOW have pinched Foo Fighters too

[justanothername]

I wonder if IOW have pinched Foo Fighters too

They probably lack the funds to do so after this world wide exclusive

During the festival?

I know rawaudioinput considered going to the cinema during the day, but that above is impressive!

Nah John Giddings said on twitter last month that Foo's turned them down.

Ah yes, forgot about that

[Wooderson]

Is Giddings the creator of the "festival exclusivity" clusterfuck?

[the wonderwhy]

Nah, that was Cowboy Copping.

[TomViolence]

Apparently IOW tickets are going on O2's priority pre sale. Hmm strange

[sisco]

Apparently no day tickets either this year

[Ted Dansons Wig]

So was the Lionel announcement a bit of a spoiler then?

Face saving?? As the years tick by Glasto's size starting to work against it.

Or the shortness of the Eavis arms against the length of the Eavis pockets.

I blame you for this Wooderson. You jinxed it

[Bisque]

Does Glastonbury need to upset other festivals?

Or was anouncing Lionel a piss take?

[guypjfreak]

Soz mate. Genuinely thought that Worthy HQ had this in the bag.

Have we finished blamestorming and finally established our Wooderson Scapegoat?

What a tragicomic MOR cross to bear, dude...
