Prince - Still holding out, my no. 1 hope.

Blur - Was excited about the prospect when they first announced their reunion, considerably less bothered now.

Fletwood Mac - Worst of the options for me, don't like their music and think it'd be bad considering Mick told fans to give back their tickets cause they wouldn't be there.

precisely how i feel on the matter

I used to think like that too. Thoughts like that only lead to chaos.

My mind is calm. Florence is headlining. She deserves this opportunity and I'm sure it will be a great night for her and her fans.

You know you're hoping that saying this means it might not happen.

+1, Don't see how Fleetwood Mac could play and not seem like total twats, Blur would be covering old ground, Saw Prince (for 1st time) last year and he was amazing, He would be my first choice. (unless by some miracle they got Bowie).

Why is everyone saying Blur have been asked and doing a favour? If they had problems with the Sunday headliner and needed to turn to someone else then why not Flo given all that Emily has said about her, about bumping up and about more females? Not saying I think it is her, just that don't think it would be Blur, I have been known to be wrong however!

In 2013, before they gave Mumford the Sunday slot Neil was certain they had asked others before giving Mumford the thumbs up. What if they did the same this year but someone actually said yes?

All I know is that when it gets announced, some of it will make me meh, some will make me all unnecessary and make the deal of getting a ticket in the resale that much greater.

btw I'm using these in my signature :lol:

    • Another note, if I didn't mention the food in the arena for main stage is right at the back. Bands wise they do very well for but as a festival so far they pros are outweighed quite heavily currently for me.
    • On another note for RIP as an event, there is some good things but there are so many things people going to UK festivals would hate and how far behind they are.  Consistent network and water, beer and pretzel like food is brought around to buy in the crowds. Topping up on the wristband is good. The camping and food arrangement is not good, you really need cooking kit. Water points inside the arena are bonkers, water points in camping are a faff unless you are close enough in general camp. Merch stands are crazy. You MASSIVELY need to think about your lidl shop for camping and try and do it so you've one stop. It's definitely worth it getting to a camping shop here, picking up a rolley between your mates and stacking it for the walk back....lidl is cheap though, not hard getting in but Thursday queues getting in and into the camping is mad. You have to register first for a wristband as well leaving any bigger bags behind so pull to a side if only two and do it separately. I was joining a WhatsApp group for solo camp so went with the flow but I've learnt. Had it been me or just two my tent would have been down much quicker.  Big final note, I got a fresh and black 3 man from decathlon before coming and put in bigger suitcase with my airbed and sleeping bag...do this. Take a smaller option for your clothes. If you go to Munich first, book your train to Nuremberg as far in advance as you can....very important!....it hikes crazy. Probably bettee overall for baggage sizes to do BA both ways but you do then need to go back to Munich after too. Use the B&B hotel hbf the night before....its very nice, comfortable, cheap and within 10 minutes of the station which also serves as a transport stop 15 minutes from the registration.  Get up literally like 5am with everything back the night before, shower and go. Transport is free anyway for festival ticket holders during the duration.  Would I just choose to travel in each day and back to a hotel?, on the basis of sleep and getting accommodation cheap enough for 3 nights i might just do especially if I picked the ticket up early enough. It doesn't feel like a festival in a normal sense....unless you are in general yoi have to exit on the paths outside the camping to walk down and in which also applies for getting water so have a stock up. Toilets are in the camping.
    • Yup and they aren't cheap   Glastonbury is different though, it's a place that will pack out for rarities they don't usually see. Download strictly speaking shouldn't be the strangest place for Avril to pop up of she had been a touring artist of longer times over the years.   Avril and GC would get the same billing for me and GC are selling arenas out quicker than Avril sold Ally Pally. Bearing in mind she'd pnly done soem Brixton dates before.
    • Avril gets above GC on rarity (see Cypress Hill this year). She drew in something like 70,000 at Glastonbury, so much so that they had to close the field off. I’d wager that she would get the biggest crowd of the entire weekend if she was to play DL.
