So they'll probably be on sale next Friday, provided they fly out and sell well I think their probably going to be announced quite soon after.

assuming that they don't go and add more dates/other UK venues.

And the Foos were due to play Wembley twice this year.

Playing Wembley has nowt to do with whether an act will or won't play G.

The timing of those shows and the timing of the ticket release makes Glasto more likely in my opinion. Theyll all sell out giving them the OK to sign on the dotted line for Glasto.

It's also a substantially less extensive tour than last time if that's all of it. Last time they did 3x London stadium shows (albeit at the Emirates) and 2x Manchester Etihad. They also did a date in Coventry and a date in Sunderland.

If this is all of the dates, then it only strengthens the Glasto rumours, I would say.

But this is something that happened on their first stadium tour; a Glastonbury appearance conditional on all the stadium shows selling well, which they didn't know if it would happen or not. I don't think you can assume it will be the same ten years later when they're one of the biggest bands in the world with a number of sold out stadium tours under their belt.

ignore that - https://twitter.com/VinylRevivalMcr put that up. Very very weird...did Coldplay's people print it wrong?

Yeah, it does.

Any promoter won't be keen for there to be competing shows by the same band which might draw punters away from the shows he's promoting.

It's for exactly those reasons that Reading/Leeds likes its headliners to be exclusive, to ensure people have to buy tickets to R/L if they want to see that particular band that summer.

A few years back now, I happened to be stood chatting to Emily Eavis when she took a call from one of Jay-Z's people, asking if Jay-Z was allowed to book in other shows for when he was in the UK for Glastonbury, and Emily told them yes. She then told me what the call had been about, and that Glastonbury wasn't bothered about what other shows an act might do - but she also mentioned that some other festivals are.

Haven't listened in years but it is. May rectify that this aft. Lennon's albums after the two mentioned are very hit and miss. 

Ram is a more cohesive record than Pepper.

I reckon that's Coldplay locked in then. Not as if they'll have any trouble selling those stadiums out, then once those are gone they'll probably be announced pretty soon for Glasto.

Two dates at Etihad and Wembley? 

Then a Glasto headline slot which Chris will put everything into will more than make up in sales long term for not doing Coventry or Sunderland for eg, which are smaller anyway. They were amazing at the Ricoh in 2012.

Sickening thing to wake up to. Even though I was 99% sure they'd headline anyway, and wouldn't actually mind seeing them because they look good live, why won't they just fuck off?
