Or they could be headlining the main stage at the Obelisk arena at Latitude?

That would be a massive coup for Latitude! 

Also I got an email from Latitude yesterday which says their lineup is announced on March 1st... which doesn't link with the Feb 21st date.

No, I'm guessing it will come from the website "obeliskairlines.com" and will look like a flight check in of some sort. If you type the obelisk airlines website address on that boarding pass above, it links back to FF website.

I can't imagine Glastonbury/Seetickets are handing over 135,000 email addresses to Foo Fighters to link to their website (leaving aside the Data Protection issues).

That'd be an odd thing to make such a big deal of, and send tickets to people in England for. 

That it would. Where was the show tgey played in Italy after that video plea to get them there? Live album of that show? But why link it to the missing date?

It's happening!

The women says she's on the Foos mailing list and is going to Glastonbury.  Plus it arrived special delivery this morning.

As said it's the same person as before but I looked at his twitter when it was linked and saw he was going to Glastonbury. Got me thinking that maybe Foos have cross-referenced their mailing list with Glasto ticket holders (is that allowed?) and sent out these to people who satisfy both.

No, as ghostdancer pointed out it's not really on when it comes to data protection and shiz. Think it'll just be their mailing list so maybe a massive UK show or something that isn't Glastonbury? Or maybe it just is Glastonbury and they hope their mailing list is bothered about them playing Glasto. Probably not the entire mailing list bc it's effective enough marketing sending a few out and people share it online - a bit like those Radiohead postcards last year.

In data protection terms, while they definitely can't cross reference their mailing list with the Glastonbury ticket buyers list, what they can do for example (and this is assuming they've taken peoples twitter names) is cross reference their list for UK registered people with twitter accounts that have mentioned the word Glastonbury in the last ~6 months.

    • Good catch this. Used on the Main stage on Saturday like a really cheap alternative.   Cracking little day though. A few Belgian acts to start the day (Atomic Orchestra, Kids with Buns, Selah Sue), some UK/IE midsized bands to end the afternoon (Gurriers, Wunderhorse, Wet Leg) and then an evening of Deftones, Florence and Underworld.   Can’t wait to be there and (at least try to) make the most of it.
    • I would be surprised if they don't, given 2022 was the twentieth I imagine next year is going to be pushed as the 25th anniversary so having the most local big name artist possible headline seems natural. Maybe SFA are being saved for then too?
    • I’d be incredibly surprised if she was in the headline conversation at all. At best I could say a high Pyramid slot but I reckon maybe Other headliner against a rock act like Fender or even Other sub (where I have her in my predictions). I’d say Gracie Abrams is pulling similar if not better numbers to Tate and she was third down on the Other last year.
    • I dont think headliner. Other stage maybe
    • Sophie Williams (journalist and Mercury Prize judge) was on Huw Stephens' roundtable last week, said she'd love to see Overmono headline Green Man. Does feel like it's bound to happen. 2027 is surely on the cards seeing as they're about to release a new album
