The reason why headliners and overall lineups this year seem underwhelming? Because the public are suckers for being TOLD what is good. Lineups are picked on the basis of who the industry tell you that you are supposed to like, when in fact, a lot of these artists are f**king shite with 8 or 9/10 reviews from reviewers who are self satisfied gurners pretending their finger is on the pulse. If the industry wants an act to succeed it gets the airplay and you hear it over and over again until you think it ACTUALLY is good. So, the top end of lineups appear poor, because they're diluted by crap. People moaning about LCD and PJ Harvey being poor picks to be high up? Mental. THEY'RE not the problem. The undercards are actually good too, you just have to do your research as they're not getting pushed. Before you moan about lineups, actually listen to stuff outside what's getting pushed on you. The lineup for Glasto, as ever, will be boss, you might just have to look beyond the Pyramid for it.6 points

I asked my mum and she said "Like RZA and GZA then?" But she pronounced those as Reeza and Geeza - so I confiscated her Wu Tang baseball cap.2 points

Full English was £12 last year for 7 items, it looked fab, our neighbours had it on the Sunday. I will definitely try harder this year to try one! 😋1 point

I guess I'll have to become a Gold member, suddenly seem to be getting loads of animated ads. I guess maybe I should start paying a bit anyway!1 point

It's very popular amongst many of the posters here. Last couple of years it's been opposite Leftfield and very popular with Billy Bragg. https://www.gravyandcustard.co.uk/crumbleshack BTW for me the revelation was that they keep the toppings separate from the fruit. So firstly they can cater for a variety of combinations throughout the day and until late at night, but also whenever you get it the topping is always lovely and crisp.1 point

With bookies odds, the two numbers given are relative to each other - the first one is what you'd win, the second number is your stake. So if as above the odds are 7/2 on Rihanna - A £10 bet would win you £35, plus if you win you get your £10 back. Whereas for Stevie Nicks at 16/1 - A winning £10 bet would return £160 plus the stake back. Except in both cases, neither are headlining so you'd end up with nothing. For a market like this, with everything locked in and ready to announce, no bookie is going to offer odds like that on anyone that they think has even an outside chance of headlining.1 point

Can you explain what you mean by this? I think I know, but I'm being hopeful that I'm misinterpreting you.1 point

She’s bloody brilliant!! I will be at the pointy one with my CMAT is a silly bitch tank top when she plays. Interestingly she chose the stage name CMAT because of SZA. Can’t wait to see her outfit choice at Glastonbury.1 point

There's a world of difference between 'out the question' and 'unlikely' - but she's very much the latter.1 point

Given CTRL and SOS two full listens each last few days. Really wanted to love it as I think her voice is superb (that vocal on ‘All the Stars’ is otherworldly IMHO) but while I can appreciate the quality I didn’t quite get there. Irony is I’d go and see her as a sub and probably be quite excited about it but will most likely be dragged away by headliner level options elsewhere. Which isn’t a bad thing actually as I’m a cert for Dua and Coldplay. Hope she smashes it though* *Secretly I still cling to the hope that it’s Olivia Rodrigo but whoever it is, I hope it’s great.1 point

Eh? The only way I can imagine how you arrived at this conclusion was that somone pissed in your wellies.1 point

There will be 2 female headliners most of the information points toward Dua lipa and sza . But she is available and it depends if you like to believe information or not . To me it looks like it will be the two named . Enjoy beat herder and the rest from the weather1 point

SZA might not be your cup of tea but not sure why she’d be a really poor booking choice. IMO she’d be great and I’m looking forward to her set if she plays.1 point

In fact you’ve reminded me of mine…. Vampire Weekend on Pyramid, Other and Park.1 point

Maybe so but they still had a decent sized crowd and I was at the back of the field. Thought they were brilliant too and they’re a bit of a legendary act so make a lot more sense.1 point

This is a great take. The measure I use is “can I name some songs”. Until now there hasn’t been a single Pyramid headliner in the 15 years I have been attending that I haven’t been able to name multiple songs for. Even the many that I didn’t see. In SZAs case I legit can’t name one. So from this I infer that a) im getting old b) streaming metrics mean nothing to me.1 point

Not really. People in the front row were family of the panellists, the vice chancellor and staff from the programme. It’s a bit too obvious that you’re something to do with Discord/OOF Festivals by how defensive you’re getting about it.1 point

OOF festivals have got it slightly wrong IMO. like you say possibly to make it out that they were the only ones to hear it to get more traction on their site when I’m fairly sure it wasn’t said at all.1 point

Feel like I’m at a familiar point in the cycle here. As we get close to poster time I have a long list of acts who are touring and could play, that probably couldn’t realistically fit on the bill in appropriate positions. Then when the poster drops I’m disappointed they’re not all there. Then I dig into the names and discover new stuff, and zero in on the big names on the bill I do want to see. Get more and more excited as it gets closer. Then the full line up comes out and loads of them clash. Then I switch to checking the weather forecast every 7 minutes. Then I have an amazing time despite forgetting acts I wanted to see. Its the circle of life.1 point

Early on I was sure it was going to be Monday as that had the lowest vote . Then some dodgy postal votes came in and I reckon it was fraud1 point

Surely the best bet would be to get the ferry across to Wales then train or coach down? Carry more baggage, better for the environment etc1 point

Third time lucky for Chappell Roan, but was convinced I would d@b down entirely on the third strike - and that's even with a venue upgrade. Never seen anything like it. More difficult than Beyonce.1 point

It's weird, because I've never considered EE a nepo baby the way the term is bandied around. She runs a business, and she's simply succeeded her father in that position, as a lot of family businesses would.1 point

Sea Power are overdue to come back - 8 years since they were last on the Other, and it must be over 15 years since they almost got banned from the festival for your man climbing the stage in the tent1 point
