Last I heard Dec Mckenna was on John Peel Friday late afternoon, not Pyramid. Think he also said that he was playing on the Sunday somewhere as well. Maybe Williams green Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had a feeling they may have pushed an emerging talent winner to pyramid stage appearance thing but John Peel makes more sense given his size. Have changed my prediction to accommodate for that, thanks. Edited March 31, 2017 by The Placid Casual Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Am family friends - realised I can probably say everything I know now he's on the poster. There was a possibility of Other stage I think, but his album has been delayed so think that put pay to that.

Hopefully it's not too late in the day on the JP, want to avoid clashes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolutely ridiculous proposition. Similar size to PJ Harvey and MSP to me. Could do either 2nd or 3rd down on Other. Went with 3rd down due to the other acts on the lineup and I can't see Flaming Lips into Major Lazer being a thing. 5 hours ago, Mezhyp1 said: Moderat > Justice works so well on the Sunday night for me Would Moderat work subbing an outdoor stage, do you think? I considered them as a WH sub at one point but having watched some live vids they were all in the dark and it didn't seem much like something that'd suit being in the light (I guess the sun would be setting, mind). Not really my area so I could easily be wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thewayiam Posted March 31, 2017 Report Share Posted March 31, 2017 The Flaming Lips would surely need a bit of darkness in their set?, subbing ML isn't happening but JP headliner would be ideal for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't see them headlining The Park, so unless they're in JP they're going to have to I'm not sure I find them very difficult to gauge Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kingcrawler Posted April 4, 2017 Report Share Posted April 4, 2017 I'd be delighted with that, very few clashes for me and nothing too major at that. I agree with most of it too, only big slots I have different are Saturday JP headliner (Dizzee Rascal) and I reckon The xx will headline Other.

JP headliner would be a waste and Pyramid would be an odd move, there's nowhere else suitable for Elbow so back in the middle they go. 2 minutes ago, kingcrawler said: I'd be delighted with that, very few clashes for me and nothing too major at that.

I don't usually look at the clashes until after I've posted it so I didn't realise how awfully clashy it was for me. There's clashes then like an hour and a half before the next act I wanna see in entirety. Horrible stuff, I hope it doesn't happen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean you've fixed it in the sense that you have put Craig David on the Pyramid Saturday, but in doing that you have opened an utter can of worms. No way they have Craig David, Wiley and Shaggy all on at the same time But in general I'd take that whole thing with knobs on. Only big clash for me is Katy Perry, London Grammar & The Avalanches which is not pleasant. But its allowing the holy trinity of headliners for me so I'm happy.

I think that's why Craig David fell off the line up in the first place actually. I see why the bookers have such a job of this! Also I'm not sure people will be off to see Wiley with the same intentions as the Shaggy and Craig David performances. 3 minutes ago, kingcrawler said: Is it just me who makes terribly biased predictions with as little clashes as possible then?

FloorFiller Posted April 4, 2017 Report Share Posted April 4, 2017 Although I don't think it's gonna happen that way I do hope your headliner/sub predictions all come true as that'd sort out some of the nightmare clashes I'm currently anticipating, and the more I think about it the more I really don't want to miss Justice despite having realised I probably will a long time ago.

simian_mobile_mushrooms Posted April 4, 2017 Report Share Posted April 4, 2017 @dentalplan cheers for this - it looks pretty good and I love going through a clashfinder and imagining who I can see. It helps me work through some of the clashes in my head too ahead of time and gives me more time to come up with the right decision come the real thing!
