I must admit, I know absolutely nothing but it did come to me via a friend I trust, and it came to him via someone would usually be well informed about these things. 

He said it’s due to be announced next week; as I say I’m not claiming to have any insider track or anything, but if it’s real I would imagine that rules them out 

Well the person who posted it on that site also posted this, which we know is wrong

It’d be a brave call by Arctic and the lads. Didn’t Pulp double-head R&L with The Strokes and Pulp blew them away. 

Yeah I was there and the crowd and atmosphere for Pulp was big compared to The Strokes.

Vegas pays better.

They definitely missed a trick not getting Silk Sonic on the farm, would’ve been an all-timer. Sure Bruno will headline soon though.

Apologies for derailing the chat and sorry if it’s already been discussed, I’ve just been sent this. If it’s legit I can’t see GNR doing the Saturday 

Just checked and Pilton to Sunderland is 312 miles....

From what I’ve heard, fun size Mars is a massive diva, a huge money whore and really unreliable. Not sure he’ll ever appear.

Lieutenant* Pigeon of "Mouldy Old Dough" fame

 

 

 

That song is being played at my funeral. Hear it every home game we play. Classic

[Mouseboy11]

GnR did back to back dates a few times on the last tour so wouldn’t appear to be a dealbreaker

I'm not standing through another two hours of the Yorkshire Elvis for a song they never play anymore anyway.

And a song that is not even THAT amazing to begin with. People treat like its a top fiver for this band.

So close to being right I can’t tell if you’re joking 

No I was taking the piss, just an odd way to order the photos was all

Yeah they came out the wrong way when I posted them for some reason. Then I couldn’t be arsed to change it.

I think GNR were a late draft in, so them having a show on the Sunday doesn’t surprise me.

The real cool cats were watching The Travelling Band in Avalon Cafe. 

Yep 🙂 Dropped into Avalon stage on the way to see Lucy Rose...can't have been more than a couple of dozen of us there,

Are they busy Friday? I could see them subbing AM

I think two Sheffield Indie-ish acts back to back would be too obvious a call.

I honestly think TBHC is their best album and new one isn't far behind. Their early stuff hasn't aged that well for me, it sounds like cartoon indie or something.

Hard to think of many songs I hate more than Mardy Bum tbh. Anything by Muse, I guess.

[aj6658]

The more I think about it. The more I really don’t care for AM.

Never seen them live but the general consensus here I’m feeling is dull live? Heard their R+L performance this year was utter dross 
 

This combined with their last two albums sounding like uncomfortable elevator music I don’t see the appeal of seeing them. They’ve lost their magic.

Why soo much hate for AM? All seems a little bit snobbish to me.

As someone who lives about 12 miles away from Sunderland it’s a pig of a drive but about an hour on a plane from Bristol to Newcastle.   Load the equipment up on the trucks and drive overnight and put the band on a morning flight and it’s easily doable  .

It's not snobbish, they just seem to be a little dull live.

I don’t hate AM, nor do I think my views are snobbish..... I just don’t like their music. But we’ve got Elton. So I’m still on cloud 9.

I can see the stadium of light from my house and can confirm to get to Glastonbury is a journey and a half .

I also don’t trust that site at all , loads of events on it that are not true
