Headliners 2015

[Fighting Mongooses]

Right, never commented on this before, don't know how to use it. But I've kept up to date on reading a lot of posts for a few weeks. After seeing Neil's comments today, and reading some comments last week, I had a thought and created an account.

Could it be Tom Waits? I'd usually rule him out, with him never touring, hating planes and never really leaving his house. But due to an article last year stating he has got a new booking agency (http://www.nme.com/news/tom-waits/76501). Never playing Glastonbury, being a solo artist, being somebody they've been after for years and having a backing band. Could it be possible? Admitedly I love Waits' music, but I would doubt he'd suit a feild, but more of a music hall. But it's a wild stab in the dark.

Tom Waits at Glastonbury would be amazing on so many levels but he isn't a Pyramid headliner.

That's the balance window closed then...

I can still access it? Would be interesting to see if it still works??

Tom Waits is never a headliner.

Is this how I reply? If it's not, I do apologise. Yeah, sadly I doubt he will, just had a lightbulb pop up and it's sort of smashed with reality hitting home.

I can still access it, can't check if it works as I've already paid my balance. But the site is still online.

Yep haha, just grasping many, many straws.

I could see him as a West Holts headliner or about 3rd down on Pyramid. Anywhere would be a dream.

[wozwebs]

West Holts headliner perhaps but never Pyramid, would be the lowest attended headliner since Skunk Anansie i'd suggest?

I was intrigued if it would work still because glastofest tweeted today that any unsold tickets would go straight back on sale. I've paid my balance too

Probably not in this world, but you never know, he could be hidden somewhere with a bottle of whisky in the Shangri La. Singing about Tom Ford's last dying breathe and so on and so on,

Yeah I think you're right, I doubt his voice would carry outside as well for any stage.

Yep, he'd be an act though many people would regret not seeing in years to come, in the slimest, slimest chance he played.

A day on this thread feels like ten years

[Fighting Mongooses]

Anyway guys, that was probably my first and only ever suggestion. Enjoy Glastonbury.

[Fighting Mongooses]

Forgot to say, goodnight. Goodnight.

[DJL]

So much has happened (so little has happened)

[JBarbour]

I think they've forgot to turn off ticket balance page.

[eastynh]

It could be the 1st Glastonbury faceoff. Peter Hook and The Light headline Pyramid, while New Order headline other. Who ever draws the biggest crowd gets the rights to the New Order and Joy Division names.

[JoBalls]

Imagine if they just don't announce it and we have to wait until we get through the gates in June to get the programme.

How many people from this thread will have needed psychiatric care by that point?

Apparently it was still up (and working) for about 24 hours after the deadline last year.

I didn't go last year so dunno how true that is, but yeah seems like they give people a bit of leeway, at least until the morning I guess.

[WS_Jack_III]

I think they've forgot to turn off ticket balance page.

what is going on over there?

[DeanoL]

To be honest I think now from a fairness point of view they need to wait til after the resale...

You can still get a refund now - you're no more committed than you were before the balance window (same £15 admin fee), just the money is now being held in GFL's bank account rather than yours.
