2013 Headliners

[Superscally]

by about to be served you mean eventually served? we've still got 2 months of speculation yet

[Bisque]

Really cant see it see it being anyone else, there is no way Dizzee Rascal will headline the pyramid stage at Glastonbury I watched him last year in a club that holds about 200 people in Sheffield. I would argue he isnt bigger than Example, Plan B or even Chase and Status (all acts that are rumoured to be there).

I'm going out tonight, and from past experiences, when ever I go out and leave the forums some vital information drops.

For example last time it was the whole stones 1m.

before that Fleetwood not playing

and even before that all the "Stones dropping out" rumours.

I've never been on the site at any time any big information has dropped, a hunch is telling me neil is investigating something seeing as he hasn't been posting for a while. Basically I think i'm going to wake tomorrow morning with a slew of new information and it's exciting

Or perhaps he's bored of replying to all the bullshit guessing in this thread when there's no information to reply with?

He subbed in 2010.

IMO he is one of the ones who could possibly if required make the step up. Mumfords, Dizzee, Biffy, Florence, NGHFB, Snow Patrol.

Yes they might not be to everyone's tastes but all sell a shit load!

[sisco]

The 5 you mentioned could push up to headliner (Id argue NGHFB couldn't but its possible) but I really don't see Dizzee ever headlining and Im a fan of his.

Could he headline R&L? TITP? even V? not a chance so why do people think he could move up to headline the pyramid, Id be surprised if he was ever booked to headline the Other stage.

[Zero_Newnab]

Could he headline R&L? TITP? even V?

[thesecretingredientiscrime]

He couldn't headline R&L or T.

He could headline V, and probably will headline V before he headlines anywhere else.

Emily says that the lineup is coming along nicely.

Bit different to our discussions.

Doubt that's even the case either.

They are professionals, they've got this sh*t sorted!

[Englishdragon]

Uh. Yes. Yes he could.

Just because he hasn't yet, doesn't mean he couldn't.

[sisco]

He really couldn't. His last spot was 3rd in 2010 below the Libertines and Arcade fire, i cant see him playing any higher than that.

He isnt on par with Arcade Fire, Blink182, Guns n Roses, The Strokes, Muse, My Chemical Romance, The Cure, Foo Fighters or Kasabian.

And R&L is the festival that has given him his chances before (subbing the nme tent in 04 when he was unkown).

[MEGABOWL]

Just because you can't see it doesn't mean it won't happen!! Seems that 2013 is turning into a tricky year to get headliners so who knows what could happen

[jackarmy]

He was subbing U2 in 2010 at Glasto and at the time was talk of him stepping up with them pulling out. And I'm all honesty I wish he did coz he was better than the Gorillaz. Had a massive crowd too

In your opinion... I thought he was awful. His performance in 2009 was much better.
