CaledonianGonzo Posted January 22, 2018 Report Share Posted January 22, 2018 Distraught that this year we won't see The Hunna ascend to their rightful position as Other Stage headliners. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt42 Posted January 22, 2018 Report Share Posted January 22, 2018 Arctic Monkeys, Taylor Swift, Depeche Mode Maybe Kendrick Lamar if R&L hadn’t already stolen him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WS_Jack_III Posted January 24, 2018 Author Report Share Posted January 24, 2018 I think QOTSA would have been a big shout for headliner too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sasperella Posted January 26, 2018 Report Share Posted January 26, 2018 I'm coming to the slow realisation that if there had been a Glastonbury 2018, the lineup would have been amazing. The bands doing the festival circuit are immense (IMO - many others may be thinking the exact opposite I'm sure) NIN, Arctic Monkeys, QOTSA, Pearl Jam....Depeche Mode, Massive Attack, Nick Cave Even the undercard looks alright (Anderson Paak, Snow Patrol, Kasabian, MGMT, Gorillaz). And that's before we even start thinking about what DJs and what not. Still trying to find the ideal replacement... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amy Lawn Posted February 14, 2018 Report Share Posted February 14, 2018 After seeing the Lovebox lineup, I'm finding it hard not to pine over a potential SZA, Childish Gambino, Vince Staples filled Glastonbury Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amy Lawn Posted February 14, 2018 Report Share Posted February 14, 2018 I'll level with you, Gonz, I got no fucking idea what you're getting at with that? Something about Gil Scott Heron? Idk, I burned some haggis this morning and my house still reeks, so I'm not feeling good about anything north of the border rn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaledonianGonzo Posted February 14, 2018 Report Share Posted February 14, 2018 Ah...it was a deep cut in-joke about how last time he stopped his show to make some ornothological enquiries about a grey plastic heron on a fucking stick that someone was waving at him.

CaledonianGonzo Posted February 14, 2018 Report Share Posted February 14, 2018 It was either going to be that or a reference to the fact that the visuals for Jump Off The Roof kept flashing up Timothy Spall. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was there and I recall the heron reference and the European Union jokes (when everyone booed I wondered whether he knew we were booing the joke or the EU) but I have no clue whether you're having me on with Tim Spall flashing up on screen.

Amy Lawn Posted February 14, 2018 Report Share Posted February 14, 2018 I did want to stay for Vinny, but when the rains came down after Skepta the rest of the group headed to the tent to cry about Brexit. I had a thoroughly grand time at Dakhabraka and then grudgingly headed back to Cox the silly bitches back to life with tequila. The sacrifices I make.

Sadly I can't find any online evidence*, but IIRC it was a still from Mike Leigh's Life Is Sweet, on which Spall played the character Aubrey. Or is it Jimmy Nail that I'm thinking of....? *Apart from a clip of a different track filmed by someone standing right behind our entire skwad.

Sketchead Posted February 17, 2018 Report Share Posted February 17, 2018 (edited) Obviously he may have chosen the money of Reading and Leeds instead, but the worst thing is this is the year Glastonbury could have landed Kendrick Lamar. Who knows when he'll come back to Europe again. I have very little doubt he will continue to deliver musically but this would have been perfect timing, with almost everything he's released to date golden. Not that it matters, but if he was offered it I think he'd have taken it in a heartbeat, with him seeing Jay-Z and Kanye do it before etc. Edited February 17, 2018 by Sketchead Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not that it matters, but if he was offered it I think he'd have taken it in a heartbeat, with him seeing Jay-Z and Kanye do it before etc. It seems that R+L paid millions to land him. He's only about in August (probably due to the massive payday he's getting there) so Glastonbury wouldn't really have been in contention. If anything, it's good that Reading gets him this year and he can do all the June/July festivals in 2019 and stop by at Glastonbury in the middle. I'm not convinced on him being arsed about playing a gig that Kanye and Jay did but there doesn't seem to be much else that can realistically take him away from Glastonbury. The thing I'd worry about is the backlash against the R+L lineup being misreported as fury at Kendrick Lamar and two dozens other rappers/rap groups being booked, when in reality he's the only headline booking that's being praised.

I know, I mean worry about the repercussions. The festival will obviously still be wary because of Kanye, so if the papers are saying that Kendrick is another figure that has folk slamming the festival then they’d probably think about avoiding him.

CaledonianGonzo Posted February 17, 2018 Report Share Posted February 17, 2018 I'd have to assume that the people who make the final call - Emily, Nick and (presumably) Michael - aren't so daft as to have their minds changed by the tabloid press. Like anyone else theyll monitor their owm industry and will know that Kendrick is hot right now and Panic At The Disco ain't. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Emily is definitely woke enough to know that outrage culture dictates that there’s a backlash to everything nowadays and anyone likely to be tarring Yeezy and Kdot with the same brush is veiling their racism fairly poorly and shouldn’t be ceded to. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Purple aki squat Posted February 20, 2018 Report Share Posted February 20, 2018 Just the fact David Byrne is doing festivals and no Glastonbury this year annoys me. One of the remaining artists is love to see there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
