I think Billie Joe Armstrong was at the festival a few years back watching his son's band, he put a few pictures on Instagram stories I think at the time,  so he's been at least. They just don't put that sort of music on often. I'd put them and Foos in a different category really. 

Was he? My apologies!

I hope it left enough of an impression on him to push to play at some point. I saw them in Manchester the other week and it was amazing. Way better than when I last saw them in 2010. American Idiot in full was the main reason I went but the new album songs were really good too. 

[Euphoricape]

ORod

Eminem/Dr.Dre/Snoop Dogg

Radiohead

 

Other-

The Prodigy

Tame Impala

Chemical Brothers

 

[CaledonianGonzo]

Radiohead less likely than the shout for Kate Bush the other day 

[CaledonianGonzo]

Ed Sheeran's announced an extra date in Germany on the Saturday night.  Doesn't rule him out specifically, but I'd say at this point he's pretty damn unlikely.

[Ayrshire Chris]

Might as well say it

ACDC 

there, someone had to say it !

[NorthernSoul52]

Beaten to the punch, re: Sheeran. He's surely out now, as said.

[CaledonianGonzo]

Even if money wasn't an object - and it surely is - it does feel like we may have missed the window to get AC/DC at a point where the cost justified the performance.

Did you get down to Wembley?

Unfortunately not - too close to G weekend to justify the trip.

 

I had a trip to Amsterdam lined up but opted not to go ahead with it due to it being so close to going to Milan to see the Boss - which then got axed.  Might just not happen this time around.

Why on earth would we want the band whose every song sounds the same

When one is in a diamond mine one does not complain that there's too much similarity amongst the diamonds.

I like the analogy, but it doesn’t apply in this case

If they play anything like they did on Sunday it will be a night to remember at the farm

My pals and I had a great conversation with you on Thursday (could have been Wednesday) at West Holts area where you were telling us about your upcoming set and experiences (you were sitting with a mate of yours while we were grabbing something to eat). Crazy that I've now realised you are someone familiar off of the forum! Thank you for being so pleasant to chat to is all! I hope you had a fantastic weekend!

Oh mate that is so kind of you thank you.

Was lovely to chat to you all. I had a great weekend thank you and it was a dream come true to do a set at the farm.

Was also at Wembley on Sunday for AC/DC and they blew the roof off. Simply outstanding. I was front right standing and Angus was on fire. 

 

My only worry is that the Glastonbury crowd just wouldn't get them. Angus in particular. He has his style, he has his method of playing and he has his own look (which of course is brilliant!). 

 

I think I would prefer to see them again at one of their own gigs (although I suspect this is their last waltz so that may be it).

See them as a very solid Other Stage headliner or perhaps Pyramid sub myself. Needs the darkness too.

I think the crowd would get them like the stones, Metallica etc. They appreciate legendary acts and getting them to play at the farm would be a huge deal.

I also think this is their last waltz 😢

They are the only reason im volunteering at Reading this year. 

[CaledonianGonzo]

I've heard Angus still.sounds tremendous. Did hope that GnR would bring him on last year.
