Metallica 2014

[Bisque]

I'd quite like it if The Futureheads were playing

[Mouseboy11]

Would Pharrell be an option to headline The Other stage if Metallica are confirmed maybe?

Be interested to see what sort of crowd he got, not sure how many people know his stuff outside of "Blurred Lines", "Happy" and "Get Lucky"

[DomDom1984]

She Wants to Move would probably get an airing. He did "Beautiful" and "Drop It Like It's Hot" in Australia as well. Pretty sure there was more.

He does what Nile Rodgers does and plays a lot of songs he's featured on/produced. So the likes of Hot in Herre, Drop It Like It's Hot, Hollaback Girl make an appearance. There's actually a ridiculous amount of well know 2000's pop songs that he's had a hand in.

Yeah granted, he's a popular fella though with the current number 4 album in the UK chart and if Gorillaz can land themselves a Pyramid Headline slot there's hope for anyone!

Ahh right, wondered if he'd do something like that. An airing of "Rockstar" would be quality.

[FakeEmpire]

I don't think Pharrell's exclusive to Wireless - he's playing T in the Park and Radio 1's Big Weekend also.

I would imagine he'd be more likely to be 4th or 5th down on the Pyramid though. N*E*R*D had a huge crowd last time (albeit bolstered by the "Special Guests" tag.)

reckon he'd be higher than that - either sub or third down at the least. his star has risen massively since N.E.R.D. played and he has a massive amount of tunes that everybody knows. it's a shame his new material is so goddamn awful otherwise i'd be well up for seeing him

[LondonTom]

Brilliant...not quite monorail standards but..very good

[Gnomicide]

Changed to TBC on the rumours page.

Hoo Yeah!

It's on!

[marcwilson87]

OH YEAH!!!!

Can't wait to see their name on the poster. Then I can relax :-)

[CHRLY]

And the national are still a strong rumor!!!!!!!!!!!

(It shall happen)

I'm not in denial.

Chuffed about the Metallica news though

Imagine Ecstacy of Gold on the pyramid then launching into Blackened

Blackened is the end

Winter it will send

Throwing all you see

Into obscurity

Death of Mother Earth

Never a rebirth

Evolution's end

Never will it mend

Never

Fire

To begin whipping dance of the dead

Blackened is the end

To begin whipping dance of the dead

Colour our world blackened

Blistering of earth

Terminate its worth

Deadly nicotine

Kills what might have been

Callous frigid chill

Nothing left to kill

Never seen before

Breathing nevermore

Never

Fire

To begin whipping dance of the dead

Blackened is the end

To begin whipping dance of the dead

Colour our world blackened

Blackened

Opposition...Contradiction...Premonition...Compromise

Agitation........Violation........Mutilation......Planet dies

Darkest colour

Blistered earth

True death of life

Termination...Expiration...Cancellation...Human race

Expectation....Liberation...Population...Lay to waste

See our mother

Put to death

See our mother die

Smouldering decay

Take her breath away

Millions of our years

In minutes disappears

Darkening in vain

Decadence remains

All is said and done

Never is the Sun

Never

Fire

To begin whipping dance of the dead

Blackened is the end

To begin whipping dance of the dead

Fire

Is the outcome of hypocrisy

Darkest potency

In the exit of humanity

Colour our world blackened

Blackened

Haha, crazy stuff !!

[VCK]

Well, well, well, so after years of "come and get me" pleas, Lars has finally got his wish!

Excellent booking, a bit of a gamble considering how the festival doesn't really do metal. But they'll pull it off. Ridculously great live band.

This news coupled with Arcade Fire and Nicky Wire talking about doing The Holy Bible in full makes me insanely jealous.

I'm just thinking of the moment where its like

[eFestivals]

Intense? With nursery lyrics?

[nowyouregideon]

So I've got a £10 bet on it's Metallica with a mate of mine, been joking about raising the stakes for a while now. Shall I go for it?
