announcement

[Alan_C]

I'll be fucking made up if it's Blur. Them or Stone Roses were my ideal headliner. Even Fleetwood Mac would make me happy enough. All a big step up from Florence or Taylor Swift.

[rumpola]

Strangely enough, I got whatsapped a "leaked" line up earlier today but kinda dismissed it. Now, after Neils announcement I'm wondering if there was some truth in it?

FYI, it had the Stone Roses as Sunday Pyramid headliner, but on a brighter note it also had Wu Tang and Beck playing Sunday.

No idea if this is correct just what i was sent.

[mufcok]

It's not gonna be Florence, it must be simeone big to hold off on announcing them

[WS_Jack_III]

I wanna see Blur but don't want them to Clash with Chems.

Damon ruled them out though right?

[klipper]

Is this gonna become a yearly thing now where glasto just books an act some other festival is claiming as an exclusive? (partly joking)

As discussed, the word doesn't seem to mean that much with acts playing lower down, but with headliners I always thought it carried some weight

[Gucci Piggy]

Blur have confirmed themselves they're not doing it, and recently. It's not them.

I think we're looking at:

Florence

Fleetwood Mac

Madonna

The Stone Roses

I'd take the middle two. Not fussed about the others.

Don't want any of these tbh. Rooting for Blur. Not expecting Blur.

Sounds like the fake one that started life on Efests

Might as well post it on here, mainly cos I'm a fan of the stage predictions thread and the "leaked line-ups" or predictions aren't usually too far off the ball (in terms of whose gonna be around for the undercard).

Unless it's kingcrawler's one...

[eFestivals]

Both acts have explicitly stated that they're not playing.

Which might have been 100% accurate at the time they said it.

I'm not entirely sure but I have the impression the booking might be a late replacement.

[WS_Jack_III]

It's Blur i reckon. Nightmare of a clash for me.

If this is true and it's because of Prince surely they won't go after him again. Getting beyond the joke now

Could that mean it's Coldplay?

Coldplay confirmed.

I knew you'd never be wrong Neil

[neil999]

all bets are off! personally think looking at tour schedules makes more sense and fmac still would have to do 3 in a row, not doing this at any other time

im pretty much gonna ignore anyone saying they aren't doing it/are exclusives as it patently means nowt..

[eFestivals]

Could that mean it's Coldplay?

It definitely isn't.

[klipper]

Could that mean it's Coldplay?

Wouldn't be necessary for them to hold back an announcement I'd have thought

[klipper]

It definitely isn't.

More good news!

You're on form to day neil.

[dentalplan]

It definitely isn't.

Wouldn't be necessary for them to hold back an announcement I'd have thought

Oh yeah. Didn't think of that.

[Hugh Jass]

Fantastic news, I'm hoping for an evening announcement as I'm in meetings all day Wednesday and the prospect of it being out while I'm stuck in a meeting would kill me.

As for the headliner? God knows, it appears that all bets are off.

Exclusives mean nowt.

Speculation, I remember you said in 2013 they definitely did ask other acts for the sunday even though Mumford were pencilled.

I wonder if they had Florence in mind, asked a few people one last time but one said yes?

Potentially? Possibly? I don't know.

[ladybird33]

Oooo, nice work, thanks Neil!

[rubenz]

I hope we get one with stages etc rather than the one with it all on one poster like last year which confused me!

[The Placid Casual]

I get £100 if it's Fleetwood Mac. Please let it be them.
