Once this Isle of Wight date is out of the way, I suspect there will be another gig or two announced.     Maybe one not sandwiched between Elvis Costello and Stone Roses at short notice with a bit of luck.  Better keep the diary free.

I'm anticipating there may be activity around Sept/Oct time. Geldof usually goes on holiday in August and then comes back and does a tour. His tour calendar is suspiciously quiet. My feeling is they are waiting to see if these gigs are successful.

I can't see any issue with Isle of Wight nor Chagstock as both will attract crowds regardless.  The Marquee gig is probably going to be the best gague of how much of a draw they are these days.  If there is a bit of coverage of the Isle of Wight it may boost sales a bit.   Absolute Radio are broacasting the Weller set, but I haven't seen any others.  Not even 100% certain Sky Arts are broadcasting it.  Not that it matters to me as I downgraded all my channels last week and no longer have it.

As an aside, I noted Bruce Forsyth has been added to the Glastonbury bill along with the Stones.   Rats are still a bit too young to do that one. I guess.

If it didn't happen today then, this will be the 'announcement' referred to elsewhere on Monday's R2 Breakfast show?

Oh well, gives them the chance to play a certain record again then....

I'm happy they were predictable. Problem?
