Depeche Mode turn down Glastonbury
April 7th, 2009 by Hannah

The famous band were set to play at the renowned British festival, but canceled their show due to the line-up which apparently doesn’t quite agree with them. Andy Fletcher, Depeche Mode’s keyboardist said the following about the band not participating at Glastonbury: “We do a lot of festivals in Europe but not so many in the UK. Glastonbury would be fun but the line-up didn’t quite work for us. Getting the right bill is important.” Maybe a band consisting of contorting cyborgs would’ve been more suited to Depeche Mode’s expectations? Or perhaps a group of electro-dancing leprechauns with digital flutes? Would’ve that been enough to make Depeche Mode go to the trouble of honoring Glastonbury with their presence?
