Florian Saucer Attack Posted December 5, 2022 Report Share Posted December 5, 2022 That wording is very specific. I think that rules Robbie out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Two different festivals/promotors made unusually specific announcements re exclusivity. Unless they are blatantly wrong, he can appear on the farm as a punter or a guest at someone else's set only. He's not doing the legend slot, he's not headlining. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well that would fall into the "blatantly wrong" category. Does that happen often though, for acts as big as Robbie? Secret sets or full on big font stuff?

Yeah Neil said he heard that talks fell apart with them so they’re not playing. With Robbie now out that Spice Girls gossip is starting to look a bit more likely. Just need them to announce any kind of shows of their own. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Off the top of my head, only this year there was a female act named as an exclusive for somewhere like Latitude only to appear on the Glastonbury lineup a few days later. Can’t remember who it was though. Edited December 5, 2022 by Jose Pose Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaledonianGonzo Posted December 5, 2022 Report Share Posted December 5, 2022 Metallica were the big one. A Download exclusive that obviously came along as a replacement for G14. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s one of the few times I remember an exclusive not being true actually being addressed by a festival, though how true the story they gave was is hard to tell given we knew it was Metallica long before the announcement. https://gigwise.com/news/90871/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

clasher Posted December 5, 2022 Report Share Posted December 5, 2022 Specifically claiming someone is an exclusive while you know that's not the case and selling tickets from that could surely amount to false advertisement and misleading customers or something along those lines? I'm not a lawyer and even if it was hard to achieve anything in court and/or was unlikely anyone would actually try, it's still plainly wrong (and surely hurtful to a festivals' reputation). I don't think a festival/promoter would go this way, let alone two - for the same act. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not aware of any blatant lies in terms of exclusivity. My favourite blatant lie was the time that Reading and Leeds announced that Bastille were an exclusive. Only problem was that Boardmasters had announced them two days prior. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
