looks alot better than the line up at Leeds.

best all round line up for a while, looking forward to ash, broken social scene, we are scientists, the cribs, midlake, slash, coheed and cambria (breaking michael eavis' unwritten rule on metal at glasto) gomez, faithless, black keys, ray davies and hopefully loudon wainwright

excellent

is 'slash' the guitarist from gnr?

Not sure I'd call them 'metal' really. Prog rock is probably closer than anything, although they probably lie somewhere between that and metal.

That TBA look as if they will be busy. Are they any good?

ice ice baby



-legend!!!!!!!!!!!

didnt know pet shop boys are there......rock on

Slash was the guitarist from GnR and ex Velvet Revolver now doing a solo album and playing at Download. Download Festival is miles better anyway with AC/DC, Aerosmith and Rage Against the Machine Headlining.

Guns and Roses will be at Leeds festival but Axel will probabaly be on his 3rd or 4th band by then.

line up looks great i.m.o, had tickets reserved but had to let them go cos the missus is due to drop our first sprog in july! every cloud and all that!!

Me and Digger going. Line up looks pish on the Pyramid, best bet looks like the West Holts stage. Mind you Glasto's not about the music, so it hardly matters.

I'm all excited about TBA, luckily they're playing more than one set.

yes, he's got a solo album coming out very soon with lots of guest vocalists - fergie from black eyed peas, lemmy, dave grohl, ian astbury, iggy pop, kid rock - so ther are lots of possibilities for special guest appearances on the day

outside chance that duff and izzy from the original gnr line up might appear - would trump axl if original drummer steven adler turned up too for a couple of appetite tracks - how about its so easy or mr brownstone with lemmy or iggy on vocals



or even bono

The Editors will be class.

Can't wait now and I agree orbital over Stevie Wonder.

Deffo mosher.

Now THAT is a festival!!! not that poncey Glastonbury shart full of bands no one has heard of

Vanilla rocks man!!

Glastonbury is more then just a music festival.

Being to download and it just looked like young kids pushing each other about.

Too right mate got my tickets



Glastonbury is just about a load of loony left labour voters shagging each other in the mud and the music sucks!!!!!

Good post......Glasto is, and always will be a festival for people that 'THINK THEY KNOW MUSIC'......Far too diverse to be taken seriously. A bit like those girls that will dress up in England t-shirts for this years world cup, pop to the pub for the England games and just sit and gab about make-up and clothes and Posh Spice to the other females there...until their blokes start getting excited about whats going on on the telly. Then and only then will they get excited too...they dont know why, they just will





! Basicaly.....Its just a daft fashion thing. Glasto is a fashion thing...with mud.....lots and lots of mud. The bands there aint that good either


OK...just my opinion of course, But I am a festival veteran and Donington is by far a better set up. At least the campsite isnt in a marsh!

Bump! Doves Wednesday night - Hull City Hall

Shakira, sod the music I'm down for a perving session !

Heard a few raves regarding the black keys , anyone else heard much of them ?

Some good bands at Glasto sometimes, but for the price hassle and putting up with hippies its not worth it. Leeds used to be good but it also is succumbing to media hyped bands. I cant see Marilyn Manson coming back. Still some fun to be had in the concrete jungle stage (or whatever they call it on the Sunday) Dillinger Escape Plan and Sick Of it All some highlights from recent years.

I think the best festival ever was the very first Ozzfest (no Download) at Milton Keynes Bowl. Slayer, Pantera, Sepultura, Soulfly, Fear Factory, Disturbed, Therapy?, ozzy and Black Sabbath. Yes please!

Looking forward to it.
went to the courteeners gig at Uni few weeks ago,they were very good.
