April 1st

[EFM The Firm, The Voice]

Firstly:

Glastonbury Tickets on sale at 8pm, who's going?

 

Then:

Who's going?

 

And this isn't some kind of April Fools joke BTW <img src="/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

[EFM's Librarian]

I'll probably come along. Is there any chance of us persuading Alex/Marvin/Zeal to join us? Who else is going, Gertcha? Hooded man maybe?

[YB941 5thD EFM ~soul~]

Not this month, if it's on til 3am.

 

If you're going in May, let me know in advance, and I'll book the following day off!!

 

 

[EFM's Librarian]

You could just come from 9 til midnight, or whenever the last train back is.

[SteveP]

Don't think I'll do Glasto this year, but I believe Morrissey has just signed up so you might want to take some Gladioli with you!

[EFM's Librarian]

Alex - I realise you want to do Glasto this year, but just in case you need any more persuading, I thought this line-up of probable headliners might help?

 

"Currently only Paul McCartney has been officially confirmed by Glastonbury organiser Michael Eavis. However, Oasis and Muse are now being touted as the remaining two headliners for the June festival"

 

You'll have to have decided by tomorrow night whether you're coming or not. It's no use doing what you did last year, and deciding that you want to come after the tickets have already sold out!

[YB941 5thD EFM ~soul~]

I'm coming.

 

Buy them (2) for me.

 

If you have a Paypal account, email me and tell me the address, and I'll send the cash over.

 

 

[SteveP]

Muse and Oasis have been confirmed by Q, who are the backing mag to the event.

 

On Friday the Pyramid will host

Oasis

Kings Of Leon

PJ Harvey

Ms Dynamite

 

Saturday

Paul McCartney

Black Eyed Peas

Starsailor

Ben Harper

Damien Rice

 

Sunday

 

Muse

Black Rebel Motorcycle Club

The rest to be confirmed, strong rumours are on:

 

Keane, Franz Ferdinand, The Chemical Brothers, Groove Armada, Joss Stone, Spiritualized, Nelly Furtado, Jamie Cullum, Love, Kosheen, Sister Sledge, Doves, Fatboy Slim, Television, Amy Winehouse, Goldie Lookin' Chain, Tindersticks, Spearhead, Suzanne Vega

[YB941 5thD EFM ~soul~]

Fking quality!!

 

Libro - are you able to do the bizzo for me like you offered the other day??

 

 

[SteveP]

Er, Alex if he does that he won't be able to buy a ticket for himself.

 

The rules are only 2 tickets per caller/net buyer and an address must be given for EACH ticket holder. The tickets are on sale at http://www.aloud.com at 8pm tomorrow.

[YB941 5thD EFM ~soul~]

Already in hand, Steve - the Ginger Lawyer is getting Libro's one.

 

 

[SteveP]

Ahhh, well enjoy it, I've been a couple of times and this year I am doing Spain this time FIB2004 Benicassim, I've already mentioned this a while back and I'm still waiting on the confirmed line up..

It's in August, it's in spain and I went in 2002 and it was really good.

 

Good hint for Glasto, take a wheelie bin, or wheel barrow, it's great for carting your stuff from car to camp site. Also ear plugs are advised for the lighter sleepers, that's if you sleep at all!

[YB941 5thD EFM ~soul~]

Did Glasto in '97 - moving my gear around wasn't the problem.

 

Moving myself about - now, that was the tricky bit. <img src="/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" />

 

 

[SteveP]

Last couple of years were very good and really secure but my only problem were the loos. I heard a story where they'd cut a seat too big and some poor lad fell in to the tank of sewage. I can't imagine many things worse! Oh yes and beware the fudge sellers, say no more.

[YB941 5thD EFM ~soul~]

Was pretty jealous about last year - sounded quality from all the phone calls I got from Libro and Thorns.

 

Then again, if Oasis and Macca are doing this year, on balance I'm glad it's this year I'm going again!!

 

 

[SteveP]

As I'm sure you know both are pretty special live.

[YB941 5thD EFM ~soul~]

Oh yes!!

 

Really looking forward to how the rest of the line-up unfolds!

 

 

[Chubbhead EFM]

i rrrrreeeeeaaaaalllllyyyy wanna go, but am at work all day from 7am so will probably miss out. Also, no-one else I know wants to go. Hey, I wonder who will drum for Oasis when they play?

 

Still, there's always Reading (again!) and all the headlining bands I've seen before, so I won't miss out completley.

[EFM The Firm, The Voice]

Actually Costello called yesterday to say he wanted to go, I'm texting him later with the details. Glad all you boys are going it should be a right crack. I'm buying a ticket for my mate Claire and I know a few other are thinking of going!

Good line up, even I'm looking forward to seeing McCartney as long as he plays the frog chorus <img src="/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

Obviously the real reason for going is to see Sister Sledge and Goldie Lookin Chain

[EFM The Firm, The Voice]

Libro, you fancy Get Loaded tonight then?

There's a few going now and for once I'm not expecting the baggy mondays-esqe drop outs during the day!
