mrtourette Posted December 11, 2012 Report Share Posted December 11, 2012 (edited) Yeah it's closed now. I made it as a homage to Gazza but he didn't see the funny side, so we agreed it should be closed. It did bring in people from all different forums though and we never found him an avatar Edited December 11, 2012 by mrtourette Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UEF Posted December 11, 2012 Report Share Posted December 11, 2012 Lucky buggers. This may just get me to go back to Reading - is it still full of 15 year olds who think they're cool? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lharris92 Posted December 11, 2012 Report Share Posted December 11, 2012 this is all i normally think when these arguments rage: anyway, to my point that should be relevant to some of the discussion that has happened: its not an act who has done the rounds for 3 years when the fest comes around... (isn't that a win??) plus lets be honest, everyone for however many years was saying foos to headline, when they did finally get round to it "OMG UNINSPIRED GET CREATIVE WITH THE BOOKINGS". the cure last year was just that, and so is Eminemz this year. back to boring and uninspiring bookings? no ta!

gazza_20 Posted December 11, 2012 Report Share Posted December 11, 2012 Pretty sure he jumped on the bandwagon after I pointed out that he's got a new album out next year... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gazza_20 Posted December 11, 2012 Report Share Posted December 11, 2012 Let him have it, gazza puts the groundwork in so fair play to him. Mr efestivals seems a bit miffed about gazza being right, I can see gazza starting his own rumour site soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K126 Posted December 11, 2012 Report Share Posted December 11, 2012 Except he has only recently played UK fests and already played Reading. If this is as creative as they can get, I can only imagine the other two headliners will be a lump of Melvins shit and The Subways with Bloc Party subbing.

jump Posted December 11, 2012 Report Share Posted December 11, 2012 It wasn't at that point that I actually thought he might play the thought, actually, and for certain reasons, have a stab at it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lightning1000 Posted December 11, 2012 Report Share Posted December 11, 2012 dude, Mr efestivals is absolutely fucked right off that he didn't nail it and someone who he considers a no hoper with no clue about anything at all regarding music business beat him to it. His defence, I couldn't give a shit. But thanks man, fairplay to the people who appreciate others, and the rest, just another day on here of what I expect. I like Neil, do my ground work, if I'm wrong, like we all can be so be it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thetime Posted December 11, 2012 Report Share Posted December 11, 2012 You do realise Neil had a prepared article written for the main page that was posted within a minute of the announcement? He already knew, just didn't share it for whatever reason. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gazza_20 Posted December 11, 2012 Report Share Posted December 11, 2012 It was mentioned plenty beforehand due to a) being a past headliner with a new album out and b ) there were that many acts ruled out he had to be considered, I doubt he was the first to call it, I doubt he'd even say he was the first to call it, rather the last to call it as it had been in his predictions for the past week or so, and fair play for that. No I've not said I was 1st but I did say him in a prediction on Friday Am?, i actually linked Paul Tm to this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaybles Posted December 11, 2012 Report Share Posted December 11, 2012 Have never seen Eminem live and I am a big fan. This has sold me a ticket for next year already. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gazza_20 Posted December 11, 2012 Report Share Posted December 11, 2012 It is quite funny that gazza winds efestivals/tourette/jump up so much. Its more proof hes getting more right than wrong...probably. Lets be honest if he was not getting under your skin you wouldnt care. Him being right must proper piss you lot of, his last prediction included eminem if I remember correctly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eFestivals Posted December 11, 2012 Report Share Posted December 11, 2012 dude, Mr efestivals is absolutely fucked right off that he didn't nail it and someone who he considers a no hoper with no clue about anything at all regarding music business beat him to it. you really are as ridiculous as it's possible to get. You made a guess right out of tens of guesses. The only thing i'm fucked off about is that you're pretending that's not how it was. I detest bullshit and bullshitters.

eFestivals Posted December 11, 2012 Report Share Posted December 11, 2012 Just looked back to find gazzas last prediction and it was eminem. Correct me if im wrong. I'll correct you. You're wrong. His last prediction was that it was Mumfords, but if it wasn't Mumfords, Mumfords would be headlining Glastonbury. Which is of course up to his normal standards of setting himself up to claim himself as right by covering his guesses from as many angles as possible.

eFestivals Posted December 11, 2012 Report Share Posted December 11, 2012 Anyone can say they knew after its been announced, if he did know why didnt he tell? but I did tell. Just because you didn't notice or didn't get it doesn't mean that I didn't know. my guess is.... my guess is.... my guess was ..... Slim Shady. Do you think I was making those "my guess is..." posts because I didn't know who would be announced, or because I'd be able to follow the announcement with the post I made after the announcement? There is only one right answer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
