They’re after too much money the greedy bastards.
Pilton...I mean Glasto' Festival
Minus Lindsey too

ScottBailey should have already happened. They’d have been a wonderful on Sat night.
alistair not sure I’d want to see them now. Was lucky enough to see them in 1990, albeit without Lindsey….again
Arctic Monkeys would be good again especially with a new album round the corner
Think I read that headliners were budgeted at £500k

Coachella is the same for lower-billed acts. Organizers see it as the best sort of promotion if you get booked there. Not sure about the super-headliners. I would guess they get a fairly high rate. Not sure why Coachella bothers given the place will sell out regardless of who the headliner is. Guess it’s a prestige thing.
Genuine question for the US members: Cochella or Lolla’?
Lol, America really doesn’t know how to do festivals.
Movement aside that is of course.
Coachella because it’s closer and the surrounding area is beautiful. But it is bonkers hot. Like obscene. Gotta be 130/55 in those dance tents midday. They used to have excellent lineups for the music we like. Haven’t been in years but saw S&D, Daft Punk, Chems multiple times, Richie Hawtin, Breakbeat Era & Reprazent, Depeche Mode, Michael Mayer, countless others.
Seeing Air live with the sun setting over the mountains is great memory.
Speaking as a Metallica-fan Lollapalooza was probably over by the time Metallica headlined it in 1996.
Dan profit mostly goes to charity now that the cunts at Livenation have fucked off out it. Livenation made that festival a nightmare
Along_the_Wire proceeds went to Greenpeace (to the best of my knowledge) for decades. Then London came calling…
Haha, Ed and Darren already ironing their gold hotpants.
Would like to go to Coachella but for the fact that its fill of c**ts, the lineups are awful and it looks absolutely horrific
