some things just don't seem believable.

 

But again, that’s opinion presented as fact. Simply saying “that’s not believable” proves nothing.

If you’re rejecting the idea that they went for GnR because other options were not available and/or said no then you must believe that GnR were the festival’s first choice, correct?

What is your take on why the festival booked GnR then?

the difference is that i found one believable and the other unbelievable, i have to apply thought about what people say, cos otherwise i'd be going along with any ols shite, as some appear to have done here.

‘Any old shite’ also known as ‘correct info that somebody else got months before I did’

This is what it all boils to IMO.

The info was out there long before Neil got wind of it and he’s incredibly salty about that.

the story was opinion presented as fact, plenty (you!) accepted that without question.

my take is that they were the best option available, other bookings suggest other options were.

the info was only out there with those who accept an uncredulous story.

There's a difference between a troll and someone who has a difference in opinion to you. He's a decent contributor to the site.

See, now we are getting somewhere, a two way conversation where opinions are shared.

Who would you say if the acts touring and headlining festivals in 2023 would be better? Excluding the likes of Taylor, Beyoncé, Coldplay etc who have tour dates that rule them out.

This is not a question designed to trip you up or troll, genuinely curious to see who you’d suggest instead.

if those who are embarrassed about accepting a ridiculous story, and accept their credulity can move on, then i will too.

stuie are you embarrassed that you believed that story? you should be.

I think the last two pages just prove you will go out of your way to not acknowledge someone got (and continues to get) info before you. 
you don’t have to believe the backstory but it comes from a very good place.

i've given alternatives many times before. You'll probably find them in this thread.if people aren't listening wqhats the point of doing it again.

no coincidence, cos there hasn't been all the other times that source has given me info, you're just looking  to question my  take because you took in the other story without question.

 

 

I mean, hear me out for a second, is it not just possible that you got the same info?

The story it came with is irrelevant, especially now that it’s proven to be true regardless.

FWIW, I think GnR were always lined up and it was in fact Elton who was brought in to replace Swift, hence his moved Paris date. GnR’s tour seems to have been arranged with Glastonbury always in mind, whereas we know that wasn’t the case with Elton.

This honestly makes no sense.
