eFestivals Posted June 10, 2016 Report Share Posted June 10, 2016 (edited) 16 hours ago, T-Mouse said: Rumour has it that a West Holts headliner pulled out fairly last minute this year. The popular theory is that upon pulling out, Underworld were moved from JP headliners to West Holts, and Sigur Ros were signed up last minute as a replacement headliner (Sigur ROS had previously stated they were only playing 2 UK shows this year. When glasto was announced it was suddenly 3). D'Angelo was on the poster in the Saturday Pyramid sub spot, in that brief moment that version of the poster appeared. Matey from Tame Impala has said since the announcement was made that they were only booked around 2 weeks before. Can anyone work it out from the evidence, rather than invent it all in their head?

Most likely then that dangelo pulled out and needed replacing. (And radiohead were already down for headlining next year so couldn't be them! ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure but I think the feeling is that D'Angelo in as big a slot as that is a bit bizarre, whereas we heard there was a West Holts headliner that dropped out and that's a slot that would seem to suit him down to the ground.

Nice name drop there! It does seem weird to me that Tame Impala weren't booked anyway. They've played when touring all their albums so far, and their live show is now better than ever.

Bradders Posted June 10, 2016 Report Share Posted June 10, 2016 He said in an interview, he wasn't name dropping. Remember that WH headliner pullout thing came from a guy on glastochat, didn't he also say Adele wasn't headlining? Either way, there's no reason to believe him as all 3 WH headliners were on the poster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Little Andy Posted June 10, 2016 Report Share Posted June 10, 2016 How early do you normally need to get to William's Green for on a Thursday to catch the secret acts? If the 2nd band is Two Door Cinema Club I really wanna catch it, as their Friday performance clashes with Frightened Rabbit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caley Gonzo got chatting to someone West Holtsy that said the same tho. 1 hour ago, Little Andy said: How early do you normally need to get to William's Green for on a Thursday to catch the secret acts?

If you wanna be close then probably before/during Clean Cut Kid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I intend to watch The Smyths before Clean Cut Kid, so maybe I'll end up staying there after that. Well, if my bladder could handle it!

Please could someone direct me to this new recipe! I may just be daft, but I can't see it on this thread! Loved the one last year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

idb Posted June 12, 2016 Report Share Posted June 12, 2016 I've still got last year's recipe set up with IFTTT. Hopefully it will still work fine as I've opted in to still receive text messages. Will there be a test tweet before the festival to check all is ok? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
