Heartened by these tidings. At least if the upper echelons of the Pyramid goes to utter shit there'll be some quality options. And Thom Yorke.

Noticed Deacon Blue touring June 21. We're they originally rumoured this year?

[RarerThanDandyB]

Ed O'Brien is rescheduling his American dates, if so, he will probably be rebooked. Cannot wait to hear Earth at Glastonbury.

Gerry Cinnamon is such a weird case. Absolutely massive in Scotland but not a big deal at all in England. He gets big slots in England because his sales in Scotland are crazy.

Did you miss his UK arena tour or something? He's certainly big elsewhere other than Scotland lmao

Nope.

To be honest they're one of those acts that are around every year, but rarely play. Though it's been a while since the last time so some time soon could be possible.

Thom Yorke (and others) confirmed for Pahoda Festival early July so we can assume he’ll be back for me to miss again.

Great news. Softens the (potential) Kendrick blow.

Let's just pray that this year's trio agree to headline next year too.

I imagine Emily and Co would have to be pretty desperate before they picked up the phone to the Chillis.

One of the biggest bands the/any festival could book.

You’d assume that’s because they’re used to getting a large fee for delivering two hours of frat rock, and Glastonbury is a low-paying festival. Same with so many other huge rock bands.

Except for when they offered to play for free and the Eavii declined.

They literally couldn’t “Give It Away”.

I can’t think of many songs which have at least 10+ songs which are bigger than the band itself.

Because of beef with the festival. It’s nothing to do with their “relevancy”. Weird connection but since Glastonbury has given the Foos a chance and the Killers another chance I could see them looking at RHCP. Especially with Josh back. They have that Friday night headline slot written all over them.

Because the festival already had its headliners.This is from the source of that news:.

Based on a recent conversation eFestivals had with Glastonbury organiser Michael Eavis, this decision isn't likely to be a snub to RHCP, but simply an issue of being unable to schedule such a big band into the line-up when all the top slots had already been filled. Michael Eavis has previously revealed that Justin Timberlake had to be turned away for this reason.

With so many potential options available next year there is no way on God’s earth that rabble are getting anywhere near the Pyramid.

That doesn’t fit the joke though.

I literally can't think of any RHCP songs. I think there's one called Californication but can't remember how it goes. Really I don't think they've been relevant in a long time.

I am very supportive of jokes at the Chilis expense but pretending that they’re a no-mark band who couldn’t get a gig at their sales peak and wouldn’t now isn’t really funny and is just delusional. I prefer the jokes about them being stupid pricks and Kiedis singing about his big boner.

You’re a liar or an alien from Area 51 messin’ about on the WiFi.

No I don’t think next year I’m just saying they are a big deal. It wouldn’t be that bizarre for Glasto to book them.

As an alien you are doing a really poor job of integrating into society. Back to the drawing board.

Have seen Red Hot Chili Peppers three times (06, 12, 16). Not once have I not witnessed them being a total snoozefest.

Jams that last for minutes, atrocious singing, weird pacing... Missing Tame Impala for being let down by these guys again (at Rock Werchter 2016) was the biggest mistake I've made at a festival. It had to come down to Editors (!), who played after RHCP, to shake up the crowd a bit.

Scar Tissue, Otherside, By The Way, Can’t Stop, Dani California, Snow, Californication, Under the Bridge, Give it Away, Tell Me Baby, Suck My Kiss  are setting the place on fire, getting lighters in there no matter where it is and what grumpy efestivalers say it’s shit. They have some absolute weapons in their set which are highly well known by the Geee peee

You're joking right? A RHCP show is not something I would associate with fire.
