Coldplay 2015

I will be fairly happy if it is Coldplay. I think they're a great band, but chose chemical brothers over them last time in what was a tough decision for me! Would love to see them at glastonbury, although it is definitely an unusually unimaginative booking by glastonbury's standards

Yup. To be fair it would take something pretty drastic for me to sack off the weekend entirely, but some of our group have moved to Canada and the transatlantic crossing might prove an insurmountable obstacle if all that's waiting for them at the end of it is FooPlay & the Machine.

Fair enough. It's good with Glastonbury that they release all the other goodies at the same time they release the headliners unlike many other fests so (I imagine) it's hard to stay too hung up on the Pyramid headliners when there are dozens of other acts to fawn over.

It's an open secret their next album will be Coldplays last, this to me seems like a goodbye headline slot from a band who have a long history with the festival.

Outside chance it might be the last large gig they do. They did very little touring (if any) for Ghost Stories, a few promo small gigs. Then again there is rumours of stadium tours so I'm probably miles off.

Bloody hell the Coldplay nerds were right.

Feel sorry for the Mexican fan coming over.

Thanks for caring! but don't feel sorry for me! Actually it's my first time that I will go to London and Paris as a trip, Glastonbury is just an extra, and I love so many bands, I really like Foo Fighters and would love to see other acts, so Coldplay was just a plus, but you never know with those guys :D!

I will also go to Summertime to see Blur one week before Glasto!

I really hope so :)!!! Actually all my trip-planning started with the idea of going to Glastonbury which is one of my biggest dreams, I would say the biggest one regarding to music... What I mean as an "extra" is that I really enjoy a lot of bands that I'm pretty sure Glasto will have many of them (not all bands come to my city so often), so I'm sure I'll be surprised and Glasto will be my highlight :D

Ah well who needs Coldplay if you have Blur?!

    • Skylink is 24 hours... But the skylink will drop you off at Pegasus business Park or EMA (East Midlands Airport) where you'll have to use the Download shuttle link, which isn't 24 hours. The last shuttle from the Download transport hub to EMA is 12:15 TrentBarton / Local bus info here: https://www.trentbarton.co.uk/download2026   Skylink Derby / Leicester / Loughborough timetable here: https://www.trentbarton.co.uk/services/skylinkderby  Shuttle timetable here: https://www.trentbarton.co.uk/userfiles/hotel.pdf If you miss the shuttle, which is very doubtful, you'll just have to find another way to EMA / Pegasus business park, maybe a taxi. You could even walk to EMA from the Download transport hub, wouldn't take too long. Just make sure you use the airport's 'circular path' instead of the dangerous roads.  I walk the circular path often, it's nice and easy. I would post instructions but I very much doubt you'll miss the shuttle, and if you do, it isn't hard to work out. The footpath is clearly signposted from directly opposite / across the road from where the download map has labelled "Pickup and Drop Off Exit." 
    • So for Harry Styles it was actually a plastic bag that basically blocks the view of the front and back cameras. You can still use the phone screen. It's much easier than using lockers, especially for people leaving for the last train etc    I think it's basically reliant on the threat of security kicking you out if you start filming.
    • Hey, does anybody have a joining link for the WhatsApp group plz? I know the secret sets get posted there but have a new phone and number
