Exactly what I thought! no way radiohead will get anywhere near a stones level of crowd.
Yep, point taken, that night was clearly a one off but amazing all the same.
Trouble is though, if they do end up going against some of the guesses on here like major lazer or alt-j. Where do you think the masses or un-decided will go along to?
Just been browsing back through the line-ups of the years we've been to previously, and friday in particular from 3rd down up to headline across most of the stages was a clash-headfuk. If that is anything to go by, then next year could fall the same with a lot of good stuff spread over.
I'd be happy with the xx top of the bill on pyramid saturday instead of this ed shearer rumoring about.

Probably nowhere near big enough these days, their last album was a bit of a flop and they were playing academy size venues off the back of it - which I don't think sold out
Ahh, not at all likely then. Maybe they should try and get some geezer like calvin harris to go up against radiohead. At least then you know it has an opportunity for the young ravers to split up from the chillers on that night.

Personally i hope someone like the xx go up against radiohead on the friday to split the crowd up. They'll need to announce a strong other headliner with a hardcore fan base.
Otherwise it's going to be like the rolling stones where it felt like everyone turned up for it. Even towards the back of the pyramid field where it's usually a bit more spead, for the stones it was like shoulder to shoulder.
Makes no difference to those that mingle closer in to the front anyhow, but i reckon watching radiohead from further back, chillin and just soaking up the great tunes is what we'll be doing
Are bloc party back on the scene again? Could a great group like that go up against them?

I'm thinking that if you just block out that they sing 'if we all join hands we'll make a wall' then it is actually a decent tune.
all the musketeer business going on in the rest of it does no harm.
-
Just gave it a 2nd listen, reckon it will sound good and really punchy when live.
not sure about singing along to the lyrics though.

Currently watching the semi finals of the eurovision contest, no idea why?
But that song just on from the nation of Georgia was way more catchier :0

who cares 18 days <:-)

it should've been 2012 when they first reformed, but of course there was no festival. now they're yesterday's news, and by next year will probably have a new disappointing album out that people don't want to hear live

We have had a number of discussions about what happens to the cows, are they aliens, are there multiple cow tunnels under the site......

Ice lolly or lolly ice? (Hint: if you call it a lolly ice then you're wrong)

Go bollock naked and wash with all my tackle out midday like I saw this veteran hippy do one time over near the greenfields.
But I did get into the smallest nightclub in the world in 2011, the bouncer let me in after much persuasion. It's a one in-one out policy. So that's now crossed off me list.
-
Skanking start to the festival with Guns Of Navarone on The Summer House stage in Glebeland - depending on the state of Thursday night's hangover that is !
-
Giving the Pyramid a miss this year apart from the obvious one. Reckon I'll have to see these 3 a day and the rest of the line-up will all blend in somehow.
Fri - Half Moon Run, Tame Impala, Foals
Sat - Swim Deep, Rollin Stones, The Other Tribe
Sun - I am Kloot, Beans on Toast, Natty
-
Small stage and voice truly amazing? Here's one for you, finish off the festival by watching Natty in the Gully on Sunday night. Not actually sure how that stage is going to be size wise, but if you into a west indies sound then he's ya rasta!
-
Yeah, wild horses and angie I still love you baby for the slowies
-
Agree with lots thats been mentioned before, james would be pretty special and the black keys replacing mumford aint going to happen but god loves a trier. Other groups would like to see even if its shangri-la random wandering is swim deep, polica, the other tribe.

2016 - Adele
in all honesty though, he could be the sort of absurd headline booking to go up against radiohead on the other, which would suit me just fine.
I can see the arguments and divorces now, how about we go and see robbie?
I'd rather eat my own shite thank you.
