Still can't get head around why the foos would come over to play the cheese & grain just to make the announcement, when a FB post would have sufficed!! Maybe there were other bigger things to discuss / agree / rehearse for. Plus the message on Plants site. Plus that airship thing. 

Cheese & Grain was Dave Grohl's fist full stand up gig since breaking his leg.... he needed a warm up gig & The Cheese & Grain would have been a cheap to hire.

who actually is bigger than Sheeran currently?

Led Zeppelin.  Pink Floyd.  Bigger than the other two, arguably REM and Kate Bush.

Notice a pattern with those ridiculous suggestions?  None of them are actually current touring acts!

I was watching Chemical Brothers on the other stage at the same time. Didn't care about the weather as the set was uplifting enough to get us through it all. 

They played the following night.

IIRC they're in the process of writing/recording a new album. Made it pretty clear after Pala that their next album would be totally different so interested to see if they've followed through with that. Excited either way - great band and excellent live act.

aye, but they've been saying that for ages!

you had to alter the premise of my question to make that work!

i'll go one further though - out of your suggestions, only the notably prolific Kate Bush actually exists.

REM wish they could have the sales of Ed!

that Friendly Fires set was so good. wish they'd stop dicking around and get back to making music together, nearly 6 years since their last album.

 

 

They've been making the new album for about a year and a half. FFS.

Arcade Fire are in Europe over June/July and have no gigs over Glasto weekend.

God i hope not. They were bad enough the first time!  :ph34r:

 

 

In my opinion anyway

How about sheeran getting (or previously agreeing to being) bumped down to sub on the Sunday night for Led Zep with grohl on drums.

I'm generally an easy going sort of guy, but this is utter nonsense.

Led Zep weren't a touring act in 2007 when they played a blinding, note perfect, one off show at the O2, so your reasoning is the only thing that's ridiculous!

Ed wished he could have credibility, longevity and critical acclaim of REM ;)

well i have no idea who's currently topping the charts in China, but, why not.. worldwide.

who's outselling him this year?

On purely Spotify monthly listeners Ed has around 48M, 8M more than the closest act to him

they were never my cuppa.  i'm sure i've been at at least on Glastonbury that they headlined but i wouldn't have bothered.  same goes for Ed.

    • Proper special gig tonight. They won't mean much to most people, but The Dogs D'Amour were one of the most significant bands of my youth.   Tyla, yer main man of said band, was playing in Birkenhead tonight. Not many there, but it was going fine. Then he decided he didn't like the smoke and the flashing lights so suggested moving the gig to the beer garden. Off we all went, and it was magical. Like having your favourite musician play in your garden. I absolutely loved it.   Before:     After:
