It was a knee jerk reaction in protest of not getting a glastonbury ticket 4 the first time. The national,the chems n the cure but 1975 n smashing pumpkins can ram it

Never known someone to hate Smashing Pumpkins so much ?

Not quite sure if it's the same deadline for everyone, but we chose the payment plan option and the last payment goes out in a couple of days. Assuming everyone on the payment plan has the same schedule, the final installment seems a good time to announce something right? And if not, end of Feb payday could be a shout as well. I don't feel particularly impatient about this, and I'm more than happy with what we already have, but stretching this to the end of March or even beyond would really be odd.

The people on ARF are talking about there being ten clues (featuring years, of course) on some Instagram stories or something, but I'm not sure if they're trolling. Some interesting sets of numbers they're kicking out though.

ARF?

I went through that forum and couldnt quite understand the source of the instagram stories they were referring to.  Was it from Mad Cool's Instagram (it was mentioned that the stories were since taken down) or someone else affiliated with the festival.

Either way it didnt seem that anyone had a solid grasp on the exact significance of the numbers as each clue was two years and another one or two digit number.

London Friday, Ireland Sunday combined with playing only 3 years ago in 2016 make it very unlikely.

Aye. For his schedule it would have to be the Thursday surely, and we have two headliners for that day. 

I'm expecting a headliner for Friday and possibly another for Saturday, although I guess The Cure can be the sole headliner that day. Can't see Neil Young doing Friday, Saturday and Sunday at all.

    • well, we might know by the end of next month if they drop the lineup early again
    • I'm definitely not camping 🙂.  My 17 year old Daughter and her friends are there 3 days and commuting back to Sheffield each day as didn't want to camp .  I am taking and picking up the Saturday so thought I may as well get a ticket as love Fontaines DC - need to do a lot of research on the other acts though to fill my day.    I walked through the camp site other year the day Arctic Monkeys played and it was like a War Zone.  My Son has camped a couple of times but didn't fancy my Daughter staying over. 
    • Not at all impressed with Polanski saying "noone should be barred from public life" wrt the Tory neo-nazi. I really don't think "no nazis in politics" should be an excessive standard.
    • Dug into Milkweed some more and this was a brilliant suggestion. Thank you 🙂   This will come as no surprise, but I have been told that there are some band substitutions to come.
    • Yeah, I think it's important to differentiate between a stage that's just a platform for the artist to walk on (which can be assembled fairly quickly and without too much difficulty), and the custom staging that you get in big productions where there's a whole world underneath.   Using the Eras tour as an example the stage extending out into the stadium field has all sorts - lifts that go up or down - down most importantly as this allows performers to enter or to leave the stage as needed. There's passageways to get from one part of the stage to another. There's what are effectively dressing rooms set aside for costume changes. There's spare instruments (and techs to look after them) so if something goes wrong above they can be swapped out in the space of seconds. There's even a track and dolly system running the full length of the stage so that Taylor can be moved from one end to the other faster than she'd be able to walk.   I don't know the specifics of the Madonna tour to the same degree but my understanding is that a lot of the same techniques are used.
