but why lol, why does she needs all this money ?? 🤣 Even if i like her, I don't think her voice is stronger than Celine Dion for example.. +, if it's a matter of success, I can see Taylor Swift, Katy Perry, etc.. way more popular than her, just on social medias  (instagram etc..)

So I don't get why everyone here thinks she's a Godess

Nice straw man argument, no one on here is saying she's a goddess, they're simply pointing out that Adele is a bigger act than Metallica in 2021 with a fee to match.

You argue like a child...

Adele is definitely a much more unique booking than Metallica, who play festivals all the time.

Comparing Adele, Katy Perry, Metallica on statistics, sounds like a game of Festival Top Trumps.

I play Adele on festival show fee's.

As, I write this I am realising that I am showing my age and younger members may not get the reference unless there is some modern updated app version 🙂

Don't think Adele particularly likes playing live shows, or at least she didn't.  I get she's talented and can write a fair break up tune, but the thought of watching her live makes me shudder.  Would be on the same utter boredom sphere as coldplay surely.

I thought Adele wasn't all that bothered by doing festivals. That and I also pondered if she was a big deal in Spain as she is in the UK, but probably could get away with booking own shows rather than piggy backing on something like this.

I feel like Metallica did their own show at the Mad Cool site not that many years before the great 2020 pause.

Will it be Monday morning? 🤔 Pinkpop Monday morning will announce something.

Still can't get the reduced price ticket for the 5th day. Contacted mad cool and their reply was useless! Just told me to go through the mad cool area which I have been doing. 

[missnutmeg]

My friend (who purchased our tix) said she’s managed it as follows below, hope it makes sense (I haven’t tried as she made our booking):

 

‘Need to go to MC website and click on MC Area top right corner- then need booking ref. Can change to English via flag at top or drop down at bottom in a later CNN page. When your tickets come up press middle and the “see” .’

 

Initially it was coming up full price for her too I think…

Thanks for the reply. Yeah that's what I've been doing and it's still coming up full price. Not sure it's a festicket problem or cause I bought VIP tix.

Faith No More have dropped out as headliner. Who would be likely to replace them?

They are on the same line on the Rock Werchter poster as Faith No More were before they pulled out.

RW also has Pixies as a sub rather than headliner, the fests are different 

[jonnytee1]

That's because haven't replaced FNM yet. Yungblud is playing after Maneskin there as well.

[jonnytee1]

The stage is set FNM will be replaced by Massive Attack

Weezer?

[jonnytee1]

With FNM dropping out and a lot of the headliners being of a similar ilk - I personally would love to see Mad Cool change it up a bit with and electric act  -  Chemical Brothers spring to mind.

I'm afraid that they don't need a replacement and everything will be canceled again...
