TimelessEG Posted February 21, 2017 Report Share Posted February 21, 2017 There are definitely more than 4 of the obelisk airlines tickets a couple in our group have them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Simpo Posted February 21, 2017 Report Share Posted February 21, 2017 So then, on Thursday Foo Fighters fans in the Frome/Somerset area get an invite to low key gig. While they're in the area, Davey Grohlton and the lads pay a visit to Worthy Farm and film a funny announcement video, possibly involving them stepping off that plane all ready to rock out. Someone says "I think we're a bit early" Zoom out to show the naked Pyramid, possibly some cows, and a message plastered on the screen saying FOO FIGHTERS TO HEADLINE GLASTONBURY! Seems plausible right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is a designated public car park or something, or is that they want to build a temporary structure on there? Seems odd to need planning just to shut your own car park.

Still, no reason why everyone with a boarding pass has to come from the SW. 2 minutes ago, parsonjack said: It's a public pay and display carpark....largest in town. Ah, that makes sense.

morph100 Posted February 21, 2017 Report Share Posted February 21, 2017 Planning site has nothing new, latest thing is from April 2015: " Change of use of upper floors of northern end of building from former/ storage/ loading of goods (now unused and inaccessible) to music recording studios, with extension to the west to form internal access stair, lift and canopy. Alterations to the exterior on the north western elevation including new canopy and day time entrance to the Cheese and Grain Market Hall.

Inconspicuous Posted February 21, 2017 Report Share Posted February 21, 2017 (edited) Rang the cheese and grain earlier and they said it is apparently booked for a "private event". I said I'd heard Foo Fighters were playing and the lady said "have you?" but did't deny it. Just kept telling me it was booked for a private event.
