Oh yeah whilst you’re here…. Watched the new Disney moving Turning Red last night with my family (little one is T1 Diabetec) and there are 2 girls in the movie with diabetes! Amazing for her to see that in a Disney movie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully nothing too amazing because people here need resale success! Up next for me is the Oxfam application day on Friday! 😬 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chazwwe Posted March 13, 2022 Report Share Posted March 13, 2022 I'm on the side of, we're not getting anything until after resale. Silver Hayes on the 29th, map on the 30th. With 1 - 2 stages/areas a week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the OP can’t even be bothered to even listen or google a band before saying they shouldn’t be on the poster then anyone is free to draw their own conclusions. It’s not random when you want a female led band replaced on the poster with a male act. Like I say a simple Google may have made the OP think twice. it’s the 2nd time this has happened now so it needed mentioning. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ayrshire Chris Posted March 13, 2022 Report Share Posted March 13, 2022 (edited) I listened to a radio 5 interview with wet leg a few weeks ago and it was absolutely weird, incredible , funny and had the interviewer in knots of laughter. They sound really good, well worthy of being on the poster😊 Edited March 13, 2022 by Ayrshire Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Half the acts are female or have female members so it was about a 50/50 chance. He says he singled them out because they are the first name in the undercard plus 'the sniffers' is a gross name and invites people to react negatively towards it. If your goal is to reduce sexism as much as possible, jumping to conclusions and assuming people are being sexist without sufficient evidence is counterintuitive. Any actual sexist who sees your post is more likely to double down in their beliefs than change their opinion 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stop digging for something that isn't there. It was a post about an unrecognised band, nothing misogynistic. OP has even since clarified and apologised (unnecessarily in my opinion - is was an understandable question which was quickly and amicably answered by describing the type of festival Glasto is) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On full line-up day it tends to be the first place I look after briefly examining the main stages for clashes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you want to fight misogyny in the music industry this is not where you start. Admit you made a mistake rather then doubling down on an obscure, irrelevant theory.
