It has to be the FOO's this week

 

 

 

every festival under the sun is announcing stuff , whole line ups or head liners,. I am getting a little tired of how Glastonbury say they are different and they will announce when they want. They have sold us the goods now show us the Legend

We've had an announcement every year in Feb for a while now (I say that, not in 14 or 15) but you know!

I like how the thingy has progressed, good work Gnomicide!

[gmb1992]

Really really REALLY need an announcement now! 

It's dreary cold February and I want a little bit of Glasto excitement to keep me going...

Didn't we work out that Glastonbury's late announcements are related to how they can pay less to the acts, allowing them to put more stuff on than other festivals?  By not announcing, it stops people from not buying a ticket to see an act at their own concert on the basis that they'll see them anyway at Glasto.

I womder has anyone thought "Oh I am not going to get a ticket for Cold Play as I am seeing them at Glastonbury"

[giantkatestacks]

Using my patented unThingy method there are always announcements when I'm out of the country and I'm off for a Spanish long weekend Sat-Tues.

I'm sure they have, or at least the people who think of them as Coldplay would.  The Cold Play lot - they're mental and wouldn't be put off, obviously.

Yes Cold Play was a bad example, they are all well dead weird "as my son would say"

If a bit skint I have done this - not for Coldplay, obviously- for a few bands.

maybe it's just me then . I Don't go to Glastonbury for the music . That's an added Bonus. If I like a band and they are touring I will go and see them even if that means seeing them twice.  I plan to see so many bands at Glasto and only see a fraction so I can't rely on seeing anyone

[Tartan_Glasto]

Normally seeing an act twice wouldn't bother me, if i like them then it's a bonus. However, I did hold off attempting to get Ed Sheeran tickets as with him being pretty much a dead cert, I couldn't justify the cost of seeing him in April when I'm potentially seeing him in June. Although if the Green Day thing comes to light then I won't be seeing him in June.

Is there only me who goes there for the music? I won't lie, most of the other stuff does not interest me in the slightest. Don't get me wrong, Arcadia impressed me the 1st time I seen it. Yet nothing I have seen at Glastonbury has ever had a lasting effect on me.

Now people will laugh here but I found Jodrell bank a far more inspiring place than Glastonbury. The place just blows me away. I came away from there and wanted to study physics. Unfortunately I could not get on any degree course as I had no GCSE's.

If the line up at Glastobury was really bobbins, it would not bother me in the slightest putting my tickets back in the pot.

"Michael Eavis is found murdered, his body contorted into the shape of a Pyramid. Tom Hanks and Emily Eavis race against time across the leylines from the John Peel Stage to Croissant Neuf to uncover the truth about Jesus or something. All the while persued by a deranged Melvin Benn..."

I think that's the glories of Glastonbury it is different things to different people. I like the Music but if I was there alone without my friends I most likely wouldn't go a sit's my friends that make it for me just as much as the music and all the other things going on
