The Strokes won't sub. notoriously in it for the money these days and a Glastonbury sub slot (or even headliner slot) payday pales in comparison to what they could get elsewhere Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I read someone on these forums say that they were escorted off grounds and banned from Glastonbury after one of their performances (which I instantly called bullshit on because they played consecutive years) but maybe it did actually happen after last year. If anyone knows more on this I'd love to know yo. Yeah I quite liked them already but I've really gotten into them since. Gutted I missed them at Glastonbury for Little Simz which ended up being the worst thing I saw. Hopefully they'll get a Park/John Peel gig next year - there should be an album by then. RE FWF: i've not heard this before but it wouldn't surprise me. They've done gigs covered in their own shit and took shits on stage and all sorts before... god love them haha RE TBM: I didn't kbow who they were until like a month ago! Gutted I missed them at glasto.... hopefully next year : Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It usually is the other way around but oh well, I doubt Glasto will care on that score, that will be 6 years since the Foo's at Reading. It may well come down to whether promoters are going to let them do their own outdoor shows as well as Reading. I guess Arctics have in 2014, Green Day did in 2013 so imagine if Foo's said we'll play there as long as we can do our own dates earlier in the year they would accept knowing Glasto was probably the following year.

Gucci Piggy Posted September 12, 2016 Author Report Share Posted September 12, 2016 If they're happy to have Muse touring Drones a year after they've done Download I'm sure they'd be happy to have Foos the year after Reading. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't see them not pursuing them next time they're available. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Provided they are back up and running and in Europe, I don't see anything but a lock. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think more and more festivals are changing how they book bands, Glasto showing they will have a headliner whether in their 1st touring year or not, Reading booking more headliners that have other shows too as the pool is smaller so it's get what you can or lose out totally.

Would they be there again this year? They would play at least 3rd, possibly even sub. 3rd down would just be the same position practically.
