  3. I'd rather Festivals were prepared for Climate Events rather than Terrorism, it's more likely.

    Festivals are more likely to be called "Terrorist" than be the victim of one, see all that crap about Kneecap and Bob Vylan last year at Glastonbury.

  5. "‘Sorry but a festival slot is not the time to do a set full of new songs only,’ one viewer wrote.

    Another added: ‘Worst idea ever at a festival.’"

  7. "It keeps with a pattern of recent Glastos, including last year, in being mostly sunny and dry without extreme temperatures – like 2017’s hottest year on record – or mudslides – as was famously the case in 2016."

    Climate Change could kill UK Festivals, but not yet!

  13. Bob Vylan hitting the festivals much to the chagrin of the Zionists who want to control the UK Music industry in the name of the nation state of Israel.
    Why does the British Music industry allow this to happen, it's weird...

  17. Continuing on with the Festival/Politics theme....it's shit like which is why Voters are abandoning Labour, the broken promises, the back-peddling, always bending to the will of the rich.

  27. They booked noted Nazi Sympathiser and over emotional male Kanye for THREE nights and now are complaining about having nobody to headline now.

    They won't give an up and coming act an opportunity, they've cancelled the whole thing. I hope they never try to run a festival again....

  29. "A vapid rage-bait headliner for your festival may be apt in the age of Donald Trump and Elon Musk, but the truth about West is that like most bigots, he’s a crashing bore. These are simply the celebrity equivalents of the energy-sink in the pub who is high on his own supply of “did I just say that?” transgression."
