I think that if anything Dizzee has really gone down in popularity since the last time he did shows and had an album out, I think he as missed his chance to headline one of the traditional large festivals, his new stuff is dreadful too, even more so than the tripe he was peddling on his last album. If his album flops I just can't see it

Where have the Jay-Z/Kanye rumours gone as the third headliner? With the success of WTT, Jay-Z headlining a few years ago and Beyonce headlining in 2011 I could see them being a strong contender next to Gaga - and plus, whether you like them or not, they'd put on a good show!

I think Dizzee would be a bit of a gamble, because if his new album is a smash hit then it'll turn out good and if his new album sucks then it might go the other way.

But I definitely think someone's going to take that gamble on him. Would not surprise me to see him at Glasto (Or R+L) this year taking a headline slot.

Neil by 3rd headliner do you mean The Stones, as in 2 headliners have already been booked (Arctic and someone else)

Or do you mean the 3rd headline as in Arctic, Stones and a 3rd headliner that hasnt been asked asked (so in reality only 1 headliner has been booked so far)

I mean that Arctics are probably the first headliner.

I mean that the Stones are possibly the 2nd headliner.

And I mean that someone else will be the 3rd headliner.

Reading between the lines - I guess the Stones were asked to headline Coachella - but had to make the decision within the last couple of weeks. They didn't make the decision - hence Coachella looking elsewhere (RHCP??) and Mick announcing it's too early. This would fit with no decision being made for Glastonbury yet. Maybe Michael is happy with someone secured to sub the Stones being bumped to headline if the Stones pull out.

    • sub yes I could see but I don't think they get 1hr 15, a headliner starting at 18:15 though is unlikely. Even the recent co-headlines that have had like 1hr 15 then a 1hr 30 after were on 8pm or just before, you are trailing behind more than 1.5 hours then. In that scenario some 3rd down bands are only starting at 18:15 and some haven't lol. I agree they won't not book them due to this but it won't be 6 headliners. It would be 5 headliners and you wouldn't want to see 5 headliners booked but Biffy were to not be thouhgt of as an option for one. Wolf Alice on the other hand could sub no bother and you'd think nothing of it. I'm not so sure Biffy would get headline though after the festival choice in Kendal this year.
    • Definitely. UKIP also used Merkel welcoming 1 million Afgans to Europe in 2015 during the brexit vote.   Politicians in other countries within the EU know the are going to lose voters to parties to the right of them over stuff like this and they've no control over it.
    • I think it will very much vary on who there is to book who they know will sell out a day.    They’ve co-headline and full headline stuff in future, there no reason at all they won’t do it again, even if it means cutting someone’s set by 15 mins or having a band less in a big bands day…   They’re not going to not book Foo fighters and instead get the equivalent of Florence and C&S just to not have a band do a big set…   …unless of course they think it will make them more money…
    • Maybe some right wing leaders like Meloni are just playing to their base, like Reform have been here talking about them ending up at Calais.
