2013 Headliners

It can be cool to hate a band AND they can be crap. The two aren't mutually exclusive. It's cool to hate Mumfords and they suck.

Like I said, not really a Biffy fan, just thought the album was pretty good - I gave the caveat of it being cool to hate them because every other time Biffy have been mentioned in this thread people have posted about how terrible they are and how they shouldn't be anywhere. I was pre-empting that reaction.

i've no doubt that Kasabian are probably a great live band - i just don't think they have the songs to fill a Glastonbury headline slot. sure they've got their share of hits, but some of the recent ones (Days Are Forgotten, Where Did All The Love Go spring to mind) are boring as hell. i'm sure stuff like LSF and Fire is amazing live, but so much of it is just plodding, drab, middle of the road indie

Kasabian were a terrific band. At Glastonbury in 2007 they blew me away, I loved their energy and slightly edgy style! BUT in the past 3 years I've found em pretty boring. A mediocre performance at Reading was out classed by the Foos the following day. Not a Glasto headliner yet for me.

    • Audrey Hobert getting a lot of traction lately and new single on Friday. Wonder if she could be round next summer.
    • Think Pulp are optimistic, not in terms of size but just that they've been on the road (albeit not intensively) for 3 years in a row and it feels like EotR is the deliberate end of the cycle.   Would be fairly surprised if they're active next year.
    • 👍 plus they brought their own screens 📺 either side of the stage.
    • Production was the only thing that could even explain why she would back out. Like they had sorted out the financials and she was fine with it and then a production meeting happened. It all fell apart. It was very clear that she was not going to compromise her show one bit and then that show in Brazil pretty much confirmed it. There was like one element they couldnt pull off outdoors, but it was negligible since the rest was a carbon copy of the tour she had been on. Glasto is not willing to make any bold changes on the Pyramid stage so then theyre kinda stuck in terms of what some acts want/demand. I think the easiest solution to that is putting her on Friday. You deal with the changes for one night and then re configure for the rest of the weekend. In 24 they were fortunate to have had Dua and Coldplay on Fri and Sat so they could both use the b stage. But I think it was removed for Sunday?     I saw a random rag article earlier that said Olivia Dean turned down Glasto BECAUSE her ex ( not even confirmed dating ) Harry Styles was playing the fest. hahahaha
