Headliners 2015

[fatyeti24]

U2 got hurt !

true, but the BBC wouldn't have said that as they exited the Pyramid! and U2 are big and ugly enough to take a knock every now and then.

[eFestivals]

I remember Neil getting a bit of info on F+TM in 2012 from the NME Awards as Flo's manager blabbing about stuff or something. Maybe history will repeat.

I'm there tonight in my squirrel suit, and Emily is on the attendees list. Might be interesting.

[CaledonianGonzo]

Adele would have a rarity value and a sense of something unique before she'd even take to the stage.

Coldplay would be the polar opposite - as refreshing a change and as interesting a prospect as a damp and cloudy day when you were hoping for sun.

[The Nal]

Adele would be a great booking. Hasn't played before has she?

[Festival Liam]

I quite like a bit of Paloma Faith, and she was great prancing about the Pyramid in this outfit in 2010, but she would be some severe barrel scrapping even as a sub headliner.

Are the NME awards still televised? Used to be on channel 4 if I remember right

look out for the guy dressed as a squirrel if they still are.

[Matt42]

Yeah sounds like Flo is dodging the question

Speaking of days, coldplay are heavily rumoured to be headlining the saturday at werchter right? I'd expect they'd be on the Sunday at Glasto then?

Florence - fri

Foo fighters - saturday

Coldplay - sunday

Feels right to me.. Dunno why.

No they're rumoured for Werchter Boutique/Classic/whatever it's called this year.

Ah ok, but not on a stage. Mirror seem to think its happening.

Which makes it likely obviously...........

I genuinely thought that was the same thing hahaha

[neil999]

theoretically we could have 3 female headliners then...

Yep it's deffo Madonna, Kylie, Taylor Swift headlining pyramid

with Paloma Faith, Rihanna, Florence headlining the other stage

[Badlands]

Not a particularly big fan of Adele and I certainly don't condone tax dodging but I'm happy to give her the benefit of the doubt about her. At least she's paying them. She'd hardly be the first rock star to whinge on about her bill.

Paloma Faith ain't headliner status but I'd see her again. She looked ace on Jools Hogmany and I enjoyed her early Pyramid slot.

She didn't just say "This is a lot of fookin tax, lads", she said "It's a lot of fookin tax considerin it only benefits the filthy poor" (paraphrasing, here).

Yeah, I've read what she says. It's not nice. I'm sure I said loads of daft things when I was a young un.

I still prefer her moaning and paying it than keeping shtum and avoiding it. And certainly preferably to avoiding it then having the front to go on telly trying to raise money for charity like that Barlow.

[addicted2noise]

I bet on Adele for the Sunday, hopefully they have the day wrong. I think she'll be great headliner if they can book her.

if they've got the day wrong, then it's hugely likely that the whole story is made up. The way it's written makes it just about impossible to have the act right and the day wrong.

Do you think they is any truth to.it?

[eFestivals]

Do you think they is any truth to.it?

I've checked out what I'm able to. The info I've had back suggests that it's unlikely to be true, tho I'm not in the position to confidently call it bullshit.

I'm hoping to get better info, but when that might arrive I don't know.

[not worthy]

Remind me ..... Is Adele the one that sounds like someone trod on her?
