There must be someone else ...
Permission to start a wild and doubtless misinformed, 2+2 = 6,543,953 style rumour?
Well, I was at Earls Court on Saturday night and towards the end Bruce Dickinson asked the crowd whether they owned a pair of wellies and that we may need them if we wanted to see Iron Maiden perform in Britain in 2007.
Now, my sane and rational head tells me that this may be a reference to Donnington, Download whatever. My wildly irrational head tells me that the wellies thing is an obvious Glastonbury reference...
Probably wrong but I've already seen someone else on the net draw the exact same conclusion so obviously there's summat in it

Interesting but surely an entirely groundless rumour that one JTG! 
Oh well, who knows though ... they're more likely I'd have thought, to either headline an existing festival dedicated to RAWK, or organise a one-off of their own ...

probably not...
am beginning to wonder if I have the guts to go on my own, without mr mania.
I can bully him to childmind no problem but would be quite shy about going alone.

If they do this and if (big if) I were to have the time, I might be up for that. I'm not really a fan, but I could be persuaded to go for a big day like that ... perhaps ...

By christ, that ticket system sounds like a fucking nightmare
moose
like some cat from Japan
Can anyone really be arsed with this?Tort said:
It's more complicated than applying for a passport, and it would seem to cost people a few quid just to get a registration number, only to potentially not get a ticket.
I wonder what happens to the photos and personal information of people who don't secure a ticket come April. Seems even more intrusive than the 'mini ID card' they supported last time.
I guess I'll have to play along, but it really is going over the top now. It's suposed to be fun, ffs. Next year - tattoos!

moose said:Just got back from Glastonbury - some locals are bitching about the festival already
So is there a licence hearing date? or has it happened already -forgive me, I live in the deep, dark north
and can anyone post a link to that pre registration bollocks? Please
Penni, nothing official has been announced yet. I've just checked the Official website (which was down all day yesterday) & there is no mention on there. The mods on the Glasto Boards have been asked only to confirm that the details released by Q are extensively correct and that fuller details will be released towards the end of Jan.
The license hearing is due to take place late Jan according to the website but those in the know reckon early Feb.

Did not know this, thanks. Usually, the licence hearings have happened before Christmas, in past years.
I'm taking no notice of ticketing stuff until it's all official.

Thanks Tort
like William, I thought the hearing was usually before xmas and I had somehow missed it.
The ticket business seems to me to be a way off making you jump thru hoops, so only the people who really want to go get tickets. It still won't stop touts if they are really determined.
They seem to find ways round most things.
