Hugh Jass Posted October 11, 2015 Report Share Posted October 11, 2015 PJ is such a hard one to place. Has she got the profile still? Doesn't play often so would be a coup, but can't see her anywhere but subbing Other. I'd say she's about the same sized profile as Suede so could see her headlining the JP. Would be nice alternative on Friday night if they had the Foos on the Pyramid and some EDM nonsense on the Other. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gucci Piggy Posted October 11, 2015 Author Report Share Posted October 11, 2015 Peej on Park thanks. Opposite Foos would be a little annoying but I'd take it. Opposite Radiohead or Muse and I'll kill people. Opposite Coldplay please. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaledonianGonzo Posted October 11, 2015 Report Share Posted October 11, 2015 I suspect they'd put Polly on the Pyramid. Afternoon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sisco Posted October 11, 2015 Report Share Posted October 11, 2015 Friday Pyramid - Foo Fighters, NGHFB, Bastille Other - Disclosure, Hurts JP - New Order Saturday Pyramid - Coldplay, Emile Sande , Ellie Goulding Other - Faithless, Royal Blood JP - The 1975 Sunday Pyramid - Adele, Foals, Kaiser Chiefs, Barry Manilow Other - Prodigy, Haim JP - Bloc Party Yeah looks very very wrong.

TomViolence Posted October 11, 2015 Report Share Posted October 11, 2015 (edited) Can't imagine PJ would be keen on an afternoon Pyramid slot. A setlist consisting largely of post 'Stories from the City...' material would struggle to keep a big field engaged. JP headliner would be nice!

Hurts aren't really big enough for that slot or Haim. I'm not so sure Kaiser's would get 3rd Pyramid, rather see them 4th, and I can't see Ellie taking the same slot pretty much after another arena tour, that top 3 Saturday doesn't look right. Don't see Coldplay or Adele doing it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mardy Posted October 11, 2015 Report Share Posted October 11, 2015 That new Hurts album is a bit of a stinker, from what everyone's saying. I reckon they're on the wane and will be sliding down next summer's festival bills faster than the Vaccines. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mardy Posted October 11, 2015 Report Share Posted October 11, 2015 Oh how the worm has turned I love that second Vaccines album, but look at their drop from Pyramid 2013, when they looked like worldbeaters to mid-ranking Other this year. Their booking clout and popularity plummeted off the back of a poor album. Just saying i can see the same thing with Hurts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Show wise wasn't great and it felt way too big a stage for them. Thought they were just 1 album wonders myself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't even remember the Arctic Monkeys which I was very disappointed about Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't see Coldplay or Adele doing it. Think Kaisers could get that slot, agree the Saturday doesn't look right though, my train was just pulling in so threw Sande in there. I predicted Coldplay and Adele a while back so will stick with them for now until there are more rumours about. Just don't know who is about, Muse I suppose but them and the Foos.... Can't see it.

Like Floorfiller, there isn't anyone I'm more sure about not playing this year than Muse, although it'd give me a free night if they did. Coldplay would possibly too as well, their new track was awful. I'll keep FM for now, not sure who else. FF and The Prodigy would do me then a night up Arcadia. I'd like to see New Order but I know they'll clash unless they get Other sub and it's not Foo's night which it will be lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FloorFiller Posted October 11, 2015 Report Share Posted October 11, 2015 fucking hell i hope it's not Coldplay. they seem like such an obvious logical headliner choice, and i don't even particularly dislike them, but for christ sake just somebody, anybody else Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have done it 3 times and to book them again would be lazy. As much as I dislike Ed Sheeran, Taylor Swift, Rihanna and the like, they have never headlined and are certainly big enough. Coldplay should be bottom of the pile. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really don't think it matters to much tbh, obviously you don't want to get in a rut where its Kasabian every other like V/T did at one point...but at the same time if a band that loves the festival can't come back after 2/3 albums because they've headlined before, its a bit crap to exclude them to. Its a dull, safe booking for sure, but in some ways the festival kind needs that one headliner every year that is on the safe side. (If say they booked Muse/Coldplay/Kasabian together for say next year again, then i think we could moan about it ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mash011 Posted October 12, 2015 Report Share Posted October 12, 2015 Adele/Coldplay/Foo Fighters would be the most MOR festival in history - and I like the Foos. But Glastonbury are smarter than that. If it is Adele and Foos (which I think it will be) I can't see Coldplay being the third. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think there is a lot more chance of FF doing that double fest thing than Coldplay at Glasto. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeeGalvin Posted October 12, 2015 Report Share Posted October 12, 2015 Adele, Coldplay and either Muse or Foo Fighters = one of the safest line-ups imaginable. Personally hoping that Coldplay is just horrible speculation, and Eavis has secretly got the likes of Radiohead on the cards. I'd wish for Bowie again, but I think I'll just have to live with my glorious (though hazy) memories from 2000. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stuartbert two hats Posted October 12, 2015 Report Share Posted October 12, 2015 This will almost certainly be one of those years where the Pyramid is seldom visited. Will? Nothing has been announced. We have a SR at best for the Foos. I think it's a little early in the game to write off the Pyramid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's a little early in the game to write off the Pyramid. Very true and I was probably being a little OTT. Should have caveated it by saying "if those headliner rumours are true ..." To be honest I rarely go the Pyramid anymore these days anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
