CAG airport is in Sardinia 

CAG 

No dates in Italy yet, could be for that.

That'd be an odd thing to make such a big deal of, and send tickets to people in England for.

That it would. Where was the show tgey played in Italy after that video plea to get them there? Live album of that show? But why link it to the missing date?

It's happening!

Actually, that's the same photo isn't it?

She's the wife of the guy who posted the original picture on Twitter.  It's the same picture just cropped.

As said it's the same person as before but I looked at his twitter when it was linked and saw he was going to Glastonbury. Got me thinking that maybe Foos have cross-referenced their mailing list with Glasto ticket holders (is that allowed?) and sent out these to people who satisfy both.

Fuck me I need to get off twitter 

[PorkSoda]

Anyone on here, got tickets and on the foos mailing list?

No, as ghostdancer pointed out it's not really on when it comes to data protection and shiz. Think it'll just be their mailing list so maybe a massive UK show or something that isn't Glastonbury? Or maybe it just is Glastonbury and they hope their mailing list is bothered about them playing Glasto. Probably not the entire mailing list bc it's effective enough marketing sending a few out and people share it online - a bit like those Radiohead postcards last year.

In data protection terms, while they definitely can't cross reference their mailing list with the Glastonbury ticket buyers list, what they can do for example (and this is assuming they've taken peoples twitter names) is cross reference their list for UK registered people with twitter accounts that have mentioned the word Glastonbury in the last ~6 months.

Has anyone else posted about getting one of these tickets? Seems odd that one single person would receive this.

Just what I was thinking.

it's around the time we got one last time to be fair, the lineup announcement is coming next month so they need to shift on with the top headliners as no reason for any to be left until the poster.

Also no reason for any to be announced from the festival's point of view. It's only impatient ticket holders that have a reason. 

Yes but I only know of one time being Metallica that they haven't been. There is nothing to hold them back.

Obelisk Airlines doesn't even exist. I think it's a scam.

[thewayiam]

Obelisk are a press release and news report specialist that report info on airlines.

Peej was announced today last year according to my FB memories. Adds nothing but ye.

[Sasperella]

Weirdly this whole cryptic boarding pass business is just making me nervous that they're going to announce a different festival, even though it seems like a dead cert they're coming to the farm. 

Goddamnit, Dave
