I found out the news from the Facebook page, forgot rule #1 of the internet; never read the comments!

"Only band worth watching at the whole thing :(" When the Foo Fighters are invited back this imbecile is going to be trying to get tickets again next for year, when another round of devoted efesters will inevitably experience the gut-wrenching disappointment. Drop in the ocean, I know, most Glastonbury goers are wonderful people, but it just aggravates me.

It won't be Florence. They are going to need someone pretty special

There's a lot of disappointed people out there. I work with a girl that's going for the first time and she's heartbroken about Dave Grohl.She has no idea just how good it is . At least we won't have long to wait for an announcement. My thoughts are well known. If you agree with me sign my petition. Let's bring 1989 to Worthy Farm.

Like them or not you've really got to feel for the Foos, particularly Dave. Imagine you're about to play Wembley Stadium then headline Glastonbury and you break your leg. Must be devastating feeling you've let so many people down. Hope they come back next year (subbing for Biffy & Foals.)

 

Also sucks for Royal Blood who were going to support them at Wembley, must've been so excited for that one.

Will they reprint the programme and everything and Guardian Guides? I can't remember what happened when U2 pulled out.

No they won't. Stevie Winwood was headlining Sunday in 1997 but cancelled, but even the poster wasn't changed to reflect that Ash actually headlined. Ash also subbed the Other on the Friday.

 

Which is a bit of a kick in the nuts for anyone who imagines it has to be a big band that replaces the Foos.

    • Tonight was a disgrace. There wasn't *that* much rain, and it wasn’t *that* windy. A festival of this size should be able to withstand some adverse weather without it bringing the whole circus to a standstill. And if it is true that part of a speaker on the Revolut stage fell…   As for the communication - announcing Massive Attack were playing at 12:30 and then nothing for over an hour while people waited in the rain. It’s laughable it really is.   If I said I’ll never come back again I’d be lying. The shambles of Barcelona 2022 and the disgrace of Madrid 2023 didn’t stop me, so this probably won’t either.   This festival gets so much wrong, but it is always saved by having such killer line-ups. It’s just a shame it treats the fans/customers/consumers like animals. Compare it to somewhere like Glastonbury and it’s worlds apart.
    • Yeah, I admit that a small part of me felt relieved when they announced that MA are canceled.. But on the positive side- got to see Florence Road afterall, and they were great
    • Glad I could take the €3 bus to Playa Catalunya! Hope y'all warm and dry up.
    • Taxi mafia running their usual scam.
