Can't help but feel that I'm going to end up disappointed whoever the 3rd headliner turns out to be. Saying that, I can't really think of that many bands that I'd want it to be. Well...not ones that are even remotely realistic anyway.

I hate all this exclusivity crap. Unless you were talking about a really HUGE name (like Led Zep, for instance) I doubt it would make all that much difference to ticket sales anyway. I reckon the majority of festival-goers have their favourite festivals and go to the same ones every year regardless of lineup, so it's not so much how many tickets you'll sell as how pissed off your punters are going to be for the rest of the year. Even if the festival doesn't sell out, it's hardly going to stop them from making a profit, is it?

And those people who clearly go to festivals just to see one flash-in-the-pan, popular headliner and then spend the rest of the festival acting like immature knobs that can't hold their drink and that are spending the weekend away from mummy and daddy for the very first time...well...

Wow...I've gotten miserable in my old age.

Perhaps.

The only person who I know has defo been told all three headliners for this year has said they're all terribly bland.

The problem is that they're so bland to him because he has no interest in the fest that he's forgotten what he was told. :lol:

    • Can't speak for Dua Lipa's, but Coldplay's was vastly scaled down compared to their stadium production staging though, and tracks were adapted to reflect that. MOTS tour had a full walkway 30m out to the B-Stage in the middle of the crowd, and two C-Stages. Glastonbury didn't accommodate that at all and just had a very small walkway in front of the Pyramid stage, and (IIRC) a disconnected B-Stage.   Which re-enforces my point. Acts can adapt their stage shows if they really want. Most do, some don't want to. Glastonbury might miss out on the odd act that doesn't want to slightly adapt, but so will most festivals.   
    • Oh wow, was sure they’d be playing this or trees. 
    • A name I didn’t think of. Maybe too big though. Think he’d go down very well despite being quite controversial. 
    • Oh bummer, got excited then 😂   Although if I had read all the way down it would have been a bit of a give away, no other festival will book both of those 😂
