Just console yourself by imagining how much more control we'll have over being able to do much less! 

I'm more concerned about my status and whether I will have any assurances to stay in the country.

Similar issues here. Wife has just been given dual UK / Dutch nationality / passport. & Woffling. Was fuckin hard work as she (wife) was born in SAfrica. Apparently if we move there - which we can - I can have one...if I can speak decent Dutch. Visiting her relatives 2-4 times a year is gonna be hard work (for me) though. My mother in law (Dutch, no UK passport, lived / worked here 20+ years) is...concerned.

It's a real shit show. Nobody can make any plans and lives are essentially on hold till some clarity is given. I know we've been told that if we're in the country we can stay but the amount of flip flopping and lies means sleepless nights. Anyway, sorry for derailing with the misery of you know what.

I'm pretty sure you will regardless, although she lies she has said a few times that they'll guarantee the rights of all EU citizens even in the event of a no deal Brexit. The system they'll set up to do that will be a disaster though. I've got a few friends in the same boat as you, horrible not knowing for sure.

Talking to a bass player in a high profile band recently he said that basically Brexit will make European tours unfeasible for UK artists (unless arrangements are made that keep everything like they are now). With all the gear having to be checked at every border after we leave it just wouldn't be worth their while doing a tour of Europe

That would be similar for bands coming over here, although I guess they'd only need to be checked at the one border coming into the UK, but the extra hassle and admin could put some of the smaller EU bands off

Let's keep our fingers crossed for Christine and the Queens for 2019 then!

It’ll only be an issue if we end up with a no-deal Brexit, which is a possibility obviously, but I don’t think it’ll happen. But even if it did, I don’t see why UK acts couldn’t tour the EU like any other third country act. They’d be checked at the border when they arrive, but they’d then have free movement within the Schengen area.

Have heard from a source that The Cure are headlining the Other Stage and they have a female headliner on the pyramid.

Pleaseeeeeee be true...I just can't see The Cure headlining anything other than Pyramid after playing main stages at every other fest in 2019.

[HeyPorter]

If it is Gaga then that is one godawful clash. Still just can’t see The Cure on the Other though.

They’re doing Southside the same day as the Foos, so won’t be main headliners there.

That does seem like an unusual arrangement. I wonder if they are seen as joint headliners or perhaps, The Cure are headlining one day and the Foos the other. I wonder if both bands will do 2 hour slots with a weak undercard. The Cure's logo has been shoved up the top as if they are headliners on the poster...

Either way, I'll be astounded if they do the Other Stage at Glastonbury.

I'd see The Cure in any other event but if it was Gaga clashing then she wins.

[Ayrshire Chris]

The lack of female headliners has recently been highlighted so Gaga would be a dream booking. 

[gearbm95]

Robyn is 100% headlining a stage this year, right? There's no way they fucked that up.

[Matt - Ed Banger Records]

No idea as to whether the female is playing opposite The Cure, also heard that Stormzy is practically playing for free, have no reason to think the info is incorrect as it’s someone in the biz, but also unsure how/why they would have the info this early in the year.
