    I think you’re right. The beauty of the 6 headliner thing is in the marketing. In effect they can call anyone they want a headliner and it will help sell the fest as long as they have 3 bins fide, big names

    You will get people whining about Cinnamon, CATBM, Imagine Dragons, Foals, Megan Thee Stallion not being big enough to headline, simply calling them headliners helps sell what would be at worst very strong subs.

    yeah this is a good point tbf, i have changed my mind

    Only way I can see that happening is if they booked the 6 headliners this year before they decided to scrap MSW. Which I think is probably unlikely.

    I just think that this year is a soft transition, for people who have only started going post covid i feel like saying "we're getting rid of a main stage and you're only getting half the headliners" is too big of a blow in one. Give us Foos, Dua and Kendrick next year and everybody is happy. Throw in Olivia Rodrigo as a special guest and we are cooking.

    New TikTok has Taylor swift playing in the background. I know it’s a huge long shot but your dates line up and she’d be in the uk. Could it be possible for one of the new announcements to be the introduction of a Thursday headliner or is that just me being delusional

    😭😭😭

  4. wet leg would be an infinitely more inspired booking than snow patrol. i can not believe they’re on the festival circuit, they have one song and haven’t released music since 2018. v dull booking, coupled with Keane as well. yawn fest.

    Lineup is out on Thursday at 8am. How much crossover can we expect between y not and truck, surely they can't all have near identical lineups?

    i’d say not much. there was hardly any last year, i think the only 2 (notable) acts they shared were Royal Blood and The Lathums
