I think it's been well established that these exclusively clauses mean nothing. My theory is, the reason he wasn't on the initial Glastonbury poster is because Reading & Leeds have him too and want his name to help shift more tickets before Glastonbury announce him. I'm sure there are gentleman's agreements in place between the organisers of each respective festival all the time

Yeah that sounds about right, especially if they've got him so high up so obviously see him as one of their main attractions/ticket sellers.

Nothing to do with Liam Gallagher, but a quick perusal of that R&L lineup makes you realise how far Ash's stock has fallen when they're subbing The fucking Hunna in the tiny tent.

That lineup is absolutely appalling. I mean IOW appalling.

Shame, Ash are always great live. 

[EamerRed]

Never seen Ash, they're one of those bands I never get around to seeing, they're always at a festival and I don't bother because I know I'll get another opportunity. Definitely not the right attitude to have

[CaledonianGonzo]

The Hunna!  The goddamn Hunna!

[CaledonianGonzo]

From Glastonbury headliners ro supporting The Hunna!

I met Tim Wheeler once, he was an arse.

I bet Ash would get a half decent crowd if they were on early afternoon in the John Peel as well. 

[Gnomicide]

Last spotted headlining JP in 2010. 

It was great.

[CaledonianGonzo]

Unlike most of their peers Ash know their way around a decent pop song.  Not great live, but a decent run of early singles.

[Badlands]

Intergalactic Sonic 7s is a romp of a greatest hits. Can’t say I’ve ever went further than that mind.

I could happily watch an early afternoon 45 minutes of King Fu, Goldfinger, Burn Baby Burn and Oh Yeah.

(Girl From Mars deliberately omitted, I've always had an irrational hatred of that song)

[brettredmayne]

I loved ash when i was at college , 1977 was a great album 

[EamerRed]

Reckon they'd make a good Friday opener to be honest. Though loads would see them as underwhelming too.

[CaledonianGonzo]

Once you've supported The Hunna the days of anyone ever considering you a Special Guest are over and done with.

How he's managed to blag his way into subbing at R+L i'll never know. I was hoping he would headline JPT but that's definitely not happening now.

Exact same spot against as last time.

I have seen them at 2000 Trees last year and tbh I'd probably catch them if time allowed but I wouldn't enter the arena until 7:30pm. There is a worse run that Liam, Ash and LTJ mind as a group but for £66 plus parking and fuel nae chance, especially when I can probably see two of them, one with another 4 at Slam Dunk 50 mins away.

There wasn't anyway really as soon as he said he'd play Oasis songs and that's how he's got it, same happened with Noel but he's a bit more up there, we can't forgot though that although I doubt he'd sell the same solo on a tour, he is the lead singer.

No lower down that 3rd Other for sure, I think he'd do sub if it wasn't for his ego not allowing reports of his crowd compared opposite Radiohead and Ed. 

[Yokel Again]

The few times I've seen Ash he's been incredibly out of tune.

Possible album cover rumour #2,745 

[eastynh]

Can we not just bin Liam and have Black Grape headline the Glade, on the Friday instead?

There would not be enough gravy on site for me, Liam and Shaun. 

Would need more Bisto to satisfy us all.

[CaledonianGonzo]

Is gravy a code word?  And if so, what for?

Is it kangol hats?

It's kangol hats, isn't it?

Gravy is code for gravy. Gravy as in chips and gravy.
