Headliners 2015

[Gucci Piggy]

They're kinda a lesser well known version of this the Foo Fighters with a different style.

You mean like every single band that's smaller than Foo Fighters?

[ChrisTGA]

I wonder how many pages in this thread are taken up by people discussing Radiohead albums/songs? I'd go for quite a few.

[the wonderwhy]

QOTSA subbing Foo's would be great, but it would put off any potential headline slot by a few years.

[tricho]

Paul McCartney?

Tour 2015 .

june 5 2015 Stade Velodrome, Marseille.

june 11 2015. Stade de France. Saint denis. Paris.

+ Saturday at Roskilde

Edit: Seems to be his only european festival show. Sad panda is sad.

Bork- female and successfully headlined Other a few years back? Some dates just announced for tour.

Macca- also dates just announced for tour

fucking too many, so don't start it up again

[swede]

If you aren't sticking a fiver on these guys at 100/1, I question your common sense levels

Saturday night guys, be there for Glastonbizkit!

Middle of the day on the Other Stage and id be there

[Wooderson]

Smallish venues for a summer tour from Paul in the UK. Seems his appeal has become much more selective.

[cidy]

Stone roses one of a few bands who would tempt me to pyramid .

Got a sneaky feeling its gonna be kanye west tho .

[Tdiz]

Would love it to be the Stone Roses. Went to both Heaton Park and Finsbury park such good shows but very doubtful it will happen.

Still holding out hope for Taylor Swift to play the Sunday though!!!

Nah, I just feel that they are generally similar but with slightly different styles and theming

I thought you meant he was playing small venues. Disappointed to see it's the o2 in london.

Last time I saw him I vowed it would be the last time. It was pretty perfect so a good memory to end with. But this is tempting as it's only 10 mins from me...

I'm looking for two quotes if anyone can help...

Both Emily's

One about foo's being the only rock act

The other about one of the headliners needing a boost.

[SERRIDGER]

Headliners need a boost. why are they headlining then?

[Ipayne]

Have a feeling we're looking at Blur and Paul McCartney now, with no announcement until McCartney's dates are selling well or sold out

McCartney is a European fest exclusive at Roskilde, so very unlikely now.

[Hugh Jass]

Reading was superb last year, but i kind of get what you mean... need a new album with a few new big tunes in it me thinks!

QOTSA would be immense, Like Clockwork was easily their best since Songs For The Deaf. Not sure they quite have the name in this country to headline Glastonbury though.

Only caught the second half of their Other Stage set in 2011. Mrs Jass wanted to see Beyonce, I wanted to see Queens. We decided on half and half - a compromise that satisfied no-one.

I tried to find the rock quote. Cant find it. is it in a video does anyone know?

Good. Another Glasto headline show would be pointless. His voice is very hit and miss these days too.

SNL a few weeks back.

Fuck can you imagine.

Quite possibly the worst band in history.

Probably go down a storm

I have a burning hatred for Limp Bizkit, I'm not sure there is a worse band around, utter s***

They might as well be he worst band around, and in history for the matter, fucking dung

i thought it was in a video, but the only one i could think of was the NME awards one, and it's not in that.

she said something like the Foo Fighters "are the rock act", or maybe "the rock headliner". she didn't explicitly say only, but it sure sounded that way.

Christ, I'm glad I saw him when I did. The setlist we got was wonderful http://www.setlist.fm/setlist/paul-mccartney/2011/manchester-evening-news-arena-manchester-england-63d10e5b.html

I was at the liverpool date for Macca that year too. Best few hours of my life. Went on my own and was sat between two 60-something couples who were loving life. There was a pretty good dj playing dance remixes of Beatles songs on before Macca if I remember correctly too...all round top night!
