As Will said never say never..... :)

 

I'm really beginning to believe if this album is successful it could happen next year. :dance:

 

Ok now for a stupid question. Do the artists get a fee for performing at these festvals or is it just seen as good promotion? :unsure:

 

I would have thought they get a fee - otherwise why do the festival goers have to pay such exorbitant prices?

Maybe it's to cover all the expenses. Will will have to pay the band.

 

The Darkness 'offered' their services the year they won their Brit Awards but wanted a huge sum of money for doing it. Eavis told them where to get off and said that everyone got a nominal fee for appearing.

 

I should think that's the way it works for TV too - just a fee to cover expenses - as Pearl says because they are getting 'free' promo.

:lol: at the Darknes. Another one the Brits got wrong. :lol:

 

Thanks for clearing that up munchkin. That's what I thought.

 

Really hope it's true though - and not a joke. :cry:

 

Can't see it with it having been mentioned in the Scottish paper too & them actually quoting Michael Eavis.

 

Plus the fact Will is well loved down there so I doubt they'd play such a cruel prank.

Well they would if they have a really warped sense of humour.

 

Oh well - back to down earth again. Can't say I find it funny if it is a joke. :angry:

Me neither but I'm still not convinced it's a cruel joke.

As I said - anyone could have read Mary's post and decided to have a laugh at our expense. It was in News which is open to everyone. We'll know by tomorrow anyway.

Great the Jo has confirmed the article as genuine. :D :D

 

 

I don't think she has TT. She has only confirmed that the poster is from the newspaper.

 

I'm still sceptical.

WILL TELLS OF GLASTONBURY DELIGHT

 

17:04 - 01 April 2008

 

 

 

Will Young has spoken of his delight as he confirmed that he will be making a Glastonbury Festival appearance this year.

 

Michael Eavis, who organises the event in Pilton, Somerset, revealed to the Echo earlier this week that the Exeter University graduate was scheduled to appear at the major music event.

 

Now Will has told the Echo: "Having spent lots of the last year in the studio working on my new album I can't wait to get some fresh air and play some of the songs live." :o
