Love to see Numan again. A true hero of mine. Saw him at Bestival along with another of my childhood heroes, John Foxx) last week and it was immense, a great Thursday night. He still has it for me, I even liked some of the darker, heavier stuff. Love him to play some Replicas and pleasure principle stuff again.

Needs to be in a tent though in my opinion. Jp would be ideal

They're always pushing the boundaries of acceptability wink.png Haha, I'm kidding, horses for courses and all that. Obviously they've expressed an interest in headlining in the past, but I don't think they'd do Pyramid. Maybe Other.

I was at a party last night and some guy told me that he knows someone who knows Elizabeth Jagger and claims that the Stones are basically clinched.

I don't believe it in the slightest but I've never been able to actually non-ironically use that "friend of a friend's cat's husband's director of photography told me" thing before.

On the Muse point - yes, they're shit now. But Leeds/Reading last year was INCREDIBLE - OoS is a fab album.

And even SOME of their new stuff sounds... good.

The thing about muse is that I felt the same way about them a couple of years back (downhill trajectory since absolution) but they gave a great performance as headliners that year and then did the OoS at Reading/Leeds the following year.

Everything I hear of the new album sucks big meaty dogs cock though.

May be shot down for it, but this song is brilliant in my opinion, I wasn't that bothered about buying The 2nd Law after hearing Madness/Survival but if there are a few of this calibre I am very tempted.

If you don't want to watch the whole thing, watch the intro, then just skip to 2:25 and 4:30. Interested to hear the studio version

I know that it is probably past them now but I would love to see The Prodigy grabbing a headline slot on the Pyramid. I know they were on the other stage in 09 but they will have a new album out, have done enough to warrant it in my opinion and would bring a bit of edge (not The Edge U2) back to the Pyramid which it has sorely lacked in recent years.

Radiohead, Stone Roses, Prodigy?

    • 👍 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
    • No argument that he’s bigger than ever, I just have no enthusiasm for it.
    • Keep in mind those crowds were full of teenagers. Glasto aint full of teenagers. Theres no way she could demand headline and get it because they got other acts to give the slot to who deserve it with a bigger catalog. Reading/Leeds would headline her cause its still LN.  If the fest was struggling its Other headline. But a 3rd down Pyramid is likely the landing spot. Itll go down like the Camila Cabello performance pretty much.
