Who's Touring Around Glastonbury 2017?

[Amy Lawn]

Imagine drowning in a lake of Sting records, surely that's the most horrible death imaginable? The undertow pulls you down, you try to scream, but An Englishman In New York floods your lungs... I'm going to have nightmares.

Wow, it is called Wilsford Cum Lake, so when you said he "released" so much "stuff" that it would fill a lake...

A message in a bottle could take a while to arrive.

 

 

Stone roses touring next summer. Not sure if anyone noticed yet.

Just done an insufferable two weeks of NEBOSH Health & Safety and I'm fairly certain there's legislation to prevent drowning in a silo of Sting ejaculate.

I watched Dune this afternoon. Some people say it's a crap film, and I agree to an extent. But a film which ends with Sting getting stabbed right in the neck is surely of indisputable artistic merit.

Spoilers.

It's 30+ years old, I reckon the statute of limitations has passed. Also it's not like he does absolutely anything else in the film except get stabbed in the neck.

[Gnomicide]

This is worse than when someone told me what happened at the end of The Bible.

[Amy Lawn]

In your defence, you were very busy for those two millennia.

[crocodiles]

Think I'll watch dune tonight never seen it

M.I.A playing in France the weekend after Glasto 

[CaledonianGonzo]

Horse's mouth-sourced goss that Teenage Fanlads are on the festival circuit next summer - which we knew - but probably not yet signed up for the G.

Key word there is probably yet.

 Ashcroft confirmed for The same festival as Liam one week before Glastonbury, surely must make both on them avaible for Glasto

Can see Liam supporting Roses at their gigs in the summer. Not that I'm expecting much from his album, but I'd like to be surprised.

Belle and Sebastian playing London, 'Live at Chelsea' June 15th, so around that week...

Ashcroft (+band) for the Other opener slot would seem pretty in line with previous years. similar size/recognition and some well-known hits to play.

[CJTM]

The Weeknd have just been announced for Poland's Opener Festival on 30th June.

Would say they will headline Other vs. Radiohead or sub Gaga/Sheeran

 

[matt2007]

Bob Dylan is around with some shows in May....

Ashcroft was excellent on Friday at the O2. Surprisingly good actually.

I would love the opening other slot but I can't see someone playing The 02 doing that.

Glastonbury: "Fine, Richard. You can play if you open the Other Stage."

Ashcroft:

"I'm stood here naked smiling, I feel no disgrace with who I am."

[justperfect]

It would be a travesty of biblical proportions if the Friday hangover slot was given to Ashcroft

Not if he continues dressing like a chilly umpire.

Yes but this was after their Glasto show and Ricky Wilson got hype etc from The Voice, they didn't do an arena tour then go onto open while closing JP. Their tour before that was Academies and smaller.

[Tommy101]

 

Elbow are definitely around
