Rumer has accidentally leaked it early

I keep banging on about The Strokes - but they are only playing Lytham in England so far and that was advertised as “sole north of England show” and they don’t have any south of England shows yet. Could they be other stage headliners ? They’ve never done GLASTO.

I also imagine Rolling Stones will play two nights.

Adele could do multiple nights or just do one big Hyde park gig and then do ten nights at the o2 later in the year after this one sells out very quickly

Lots of former headliners now playing around Glasto and leaving Glasto blank. I wonder if Glasto are doing some sort of surprise array of special guests.

For next year? Or was that just this year due to Covid.

On one of the Lytham Festival emails - it said The Strokes are "exclusive north of England show" which means I guess that there's a "south of England" show lined up....That could be All Points East, both because Strokes are playing Prima twice and also because of the sound farce of last time (and The Strokes day sold out)

Elton has now postponed all his O2 dates for this year to 2023

Strokes were heavily rumoured in 2019

Just added The Strokes and Tears For Fears - don't think anyone saw the Strokes coming...

Looking forward to this - most of the dates closed to selling out now..

Let’s be honest. This year was successful with that lineup because we were starved of anything and would have taken anything.

Lorde is playing 3 nights at Roundhouse and one huge night at Ally Pally - I doubt she'll play APE

Although the two x weekends of Primavera have what I would deem to be 90% of the likely lineup for APE..It may be easier for them to do May/June So far, Nick Cave has announced Europe but no UK dates.

Friends reported that there's a multi-combo deal when you buy Elton - you get cheaper Duran Duran or Pearl Jam tickets as a combo

Playing, if I believe correctly, on Glasto Friday...

If McCartney headlines Glasto I imagine he’s a good shout for this. Though I say that every year.
