alfoir Posted July 24, 2012 Report Share Posted July 24, 2012 (edited) Elbow absolutely nailed it in 2011, but who do you reckon will take on the pre-headliner slots on the Pyramid next year? I can see Mumford & Sons making a step up from JP 2010 Other 2011 to Pyramid 2013, and given their new album will be about 9 months old come Glasto a sunset slot might be their bag. Any others? Unfortunately I can see someone like Plan B or Example in another of the three slots. Other names I'll throw in to the mix are Snore Patrol, Kasabian, Chase & Status and Florence & her Wailing Cat Machine. Prediction: Mumford, Plan B, Florence.

swede Posted July 24, 2012 Report Share Posted July 24, 2012 Arcade Fire, Noel Gallagher, Chase and Status. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alfoir Posted July 24, 2012 Report Share Posted July 24, 2012 Noel Gallagher a great shout actually. I was torn between Chase & Status and Plan B for my prediction. Arcade Fire I think would maybe be a headline act these days given the success of Suburbs and their great back catalogue? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gnomicide Posted July 24, 2012 Report Share Posted July 24, 2012 If he ever gets round to bringing out a new album, Paolo Nutini would fit the role well. Don't know if they'd have anyone playing the same stage as last time though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Nal Posted July 24, 2012 Report Share Posted July 24, 2012 I put AF in my prediction as I think they only band they'd sub for would be The Rolling Stones, who I think will headline one of the nights. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Nal Posted July 24, 2012 Report Share Posted July 24, 2012 (edited) Friday, Saturday, Sunday. I think OP means sub-headline slot which, at Glastonbury, is usually when the sun is setting. Edited July 24, 2012 by The Nal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gazza_20 Posted July 24, 2012 Report Share Posted July 24, 2012 Ah ok cheers. Arcade Fire, Plan B and Noel then. Noel before the Stones. Although that may keep people at the Pyramid for 4-5 hours. I know Eavis likes to book the stages in a way that keeps people moving, to avoid crushes and the like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ed209 Posted July 24, 2012 Report Share Posted July 24, 2012 Going by this FATM into GaGa if it was her I think would also warrant a big crowd shift. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

General Lee Posted July 24, 2012 Report Share Posted July 24, 2012 I think Noel seems a pretty good bloke really. His music is boring as hell though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoeyT Posted July 25, 2012 Report Share Posted July 25, 2012 Have to agree about Elbow. It's almost heaven watching them play as the sun goes down. Wouldn't mind a bit of Glasvegas and Paolo Nutini. Mumford and sons would suit the slot perfectly as the sun sets! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alfoir Posted July 25, 2012 Report Share Posted July 25, 2012 Lots of interesting options unfolding here, I suppose with the year off there is a whole host of artists that could take the slot. Mumford & Sons - seems very likely in my opinion Noel Gallagher - played before the Stone Roses at TITP, could see it happening at Glasto too Florence - high up on the Other in 2010, so I could see her on the Pyramid next year and pre-headliner seems the most likely spot Chase & Status - I could see a sunset slot on the Pyramid (a bit like Pendulum last year), but agree with what someone said in that they could headline the Other Sigur Ros - I would love them to play sunset slot, but I don't think they would be there. Maybe headliner of JP/West Holts or sub headliner on the Other as someone else suggested Arcade Fire - don't think they've got a new album on the way? Therefore I can't see them being there next year unfortunately. The next time they'll be at Glasto, they'll headline. Plan B, Biffy Clyro and Paulo Nutini - all played 3rd top on the Pyramid in 2011, so I don't think any will reappear in 2013. Plan B probably the most likely to come back, probably as sub-headline on the Other or maybe... dare I say it... headline West Holts?! Biffy and Paulo will take the Pyramid sub-headline slot one day, but perhaps not next year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chickenfire Posted July 25, 2012 Report Share Posted July 25, 2012 I could see Plan B headlining Other, if is new album is big enough, when someone like Arcade Fire/Radiohead are headlining Pyramid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
