These have probably been passed down to his children. But was this an actual factor during bookings in the past decades? I never got the impression that their religious beliefs were relevant to the fest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean if you think what Dave Grohl did should be treated as worse than say rapists or acts that sex with minors etc.... when it comes to being booked by a festival... Seriously have a look at yourself. Edited 4 hours ago by AVALON.G 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously he doesn't deserve worst coverage than rapists - but what I quoted said 'equal' as well. I guess I wasn't completely clear, but thought that part would be obvious! but compared to the behaviour of some of his fellow rockstars who have has nowhere near the same negative coverage for equal or worse behavioir seems very disproportionate in terms of negative coverage @AVALON.G see above and consider an apology.

They actually headlined Latitude quite recently 2022 the once and only time i will go to that festival - its a prime kind of headliner that suits a crowd that at the same festival could take 0 interest in acts like Little Simz, Mdou Moctar, Self Esteem, Kae Tempest. They love the Beige at latitude Edited 4 hours ago by Ben7amin_ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of them has even slept with a few minors The Stones have always been portrayed as womanisers in the media. Dave hasn't put a foot wrong before, he had a reputation as being the nicest rock star. 1 hour ago, FKA SOSOTWS said: But was this an actual factor during bookings in the past decades?

I doubt it, but I get the impression that Dave had become a friend as has Chris Martin and accepted into the inner sanctuary of Worthy Farm. He was valued by the family, not just a booking for the festival. Edited 3 hours ago by StoneCircle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would hope the Eavis' are able to forgive Grohl at a friendship level. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
