Kasabian

[Alcatraz]

I've never been to see them at Glastonbury, so I can't complain they've played too many times. This time I'll be there (probably)

[lianne and craig]

is it true? are they really? can i stop crossing my fingers now coz its starting to hurt?!

this will be truely amazing, sooooooo glad i didnt whinge bout the lineup. i knew if i kept the faith good things would happen. yippeeeee!!!!!!!

[Red_Eye_Jedi]

This is great news!

[tazzyb]

Kasabian are fcuking ace! Please, please get them on the bill for Glasto.

EVEN if they clash with Blur Sunday night! And I was a massive BritPop man in the mid 90's.

I am also loving the new song

[dunc55]

you spent £50 on a ticket to see the support band? LOL

[hughesie]

If they do clash with Blur I will still see Kasabian. I also have tickets for Oasis and I bought them for The Enemy and Kasabian not arsed about Oasis at all

[Rainy day woman]

If Kasabian clash with Blur I have a problem...A Big Problem

I am expecting them to occupy the slot before Blur on the Pyramid or maybe before the Boss

[FestMonster]

Come on give it some, Glastonbury to the left sing it Come on i need more GIVE ME MORE!, the right side your turn COME ON!, Straight down the middle go COME ON COME ON COME ON !

GLASTONBURY ALL TOGETHER !!!!

GIVE ME SOME MORE !!!

Fingers crossed they do play this year based on the performance in 2007 they are worthy enough to headline the main stage the did outshine the arctics, if they headline the other stage on the friday night i think the crowd will be immense

[davelucs]

spoke to serge's dad today and forgot to ask about glasto. shit.

[ThomThomDrum]

Im quite concerned with the amount of optimistic view points on this and yet they are still not listed as a rumour, let alone a strong rumour or TBC..............If this does not happen a lot of peeps gonna be pissed!!

[tylerdurden]

i'll be very pissed off

[Harrow Strongbow Ciderman!]

It was rumoured, but didn't happen.

Kasabian are one of those bands that i've never quite got round to seeing live at a festival, they're always on my 'list' but something more tempting always seems to lure me away. I'll hopefully try to remedy that this year Not the end of the world if i dont though, as i'm seeing them at Wolves Civic hall in June anyway

[Matt 100]

I've asked the question on the official Kasabian forum and it seems they are going to play and it should be announced sometime this week.

Simply great news.

[dj267]

if they ARE on before the Boss, I'll be annoyed, because that means I'll have to wtach them........

[theleedslads]

They have just been announced for RADIO 1 - ONE BIG WEEKEND.

Dont think this changes anything though.

[Wooderson]

At the risk of repeating myself, I'll be very surprised if they play again.

2009 ?????

Is that not enough for people? They've toured constantly for years now. People claiming that they'll be disappointed if they don't play make me laugh. Kasabian have played Glastonbury more times than any other similar sized band this decade.

[Matt 100]

didnt they say they are only doing one festival this year? or doesnt this count as a major festival? fingers crossed it doesnt count coz i sooooooooooooo want to see them again.

[pedmills]

Well I guess it would depend on whether they count Radio 1's big weekend as a major festival, but I suspect in this case they would. So that means Kasabian are very probably NOT playing Glastonbury.

[ThomThomDrum]

totally agree, this is just a complete non starter, plus they rubbished the festival last year when it was Jay Z, they jumped on Noels bandwagon, so where this is all coming fromi dont know

i think its more hope than anything else

[pedmills]

Blind, optimistic hope, based on absolutley nothing other than a few posts from people who say they know something, but have nothing to back it up, if you ask me............

They say it will be announced this week............lets see.............

[lianne and craig]

They said on the radio they are playing a large UK festival, they aren't too mant of them & the great escape aint one of them

[godders1966]

Surely not! Radio1 Big Weekend cannot be classed as a big festival can it?. If you look down the list of different 'festivals' on efestivals forum, there is no mention of Radio 1 at all.

I've still got my fingers crossed it'll be Glasto.

They've got a new album out at beginning of June. Glasto would be the ideal place to promote that. Added to the fact there is space in their upcoming tour to fit it in.

I'm still hopeful.
