Cure not replacing DM at Pinkpop
"Today various Dutch (online) newspapers had a story about the worries of the Pinkpop festival organization whether Depeche Mode will be able to make it as headliner. After several cancellations of concerts, Jan Smeets (Pinkpop's organizer) is taking into account that Depeche Mode may not perform next Sunday May 31st. He is in contact with their management every day. In the meantime, Smeets is seriously looking for a replacement. The newspapers report that he has contacted The Cure and asked them to headline the festival. However, according to Smeets, The Cure said they will not be able to make it on Sunday." (Thanks Maarten)

I'm also agree, now they goanne take Placebo (they should be played before DM) as the headline. And they try to find another smaller group to take place before Placebo. :smth023

I bet that The Cure was thinking the same, "they should asked us from the beginning, now it's to late" :-D
And I'm happy, I should paid a lot for a ticket and maybe I shouldn't find it, so it would be only frustrated :roll:
what do you mean? DM are not going to play? :shock:

News from this morning in a morningshow on the radio:

Still not sure but the organiser asked Oasis or The Prodigy to replace DM.
I guess we know more tomorrow or later today :?
