that's not unreasonable to assume

If that's aimed in my direction (and I assume it is since I can't see any other new accounts posting recently), I can assure you I've no other account. Why the animosity towards newbies, might I ask? Are we not entitled to an opinion?

FYI, I've always been an active reader of this thread. Just never commented before.

more 'techguy', and i didn't notice any animosity towards anyone, but opinions and all that.

Don't worry too much about it, just a lot of newbies tend to be 'trolls' at this time of year! It'll probably get less tense once the line-up is announced :lol:

This thread is nuts! I'm fucking nuts, not interested in headliners, never watched a Pyramid headliner in all the times I have been- yet here I am all day on here!

However if (when?) The Cure are announced as the 3rd headliner - Pyramid here I come :-)

Jesus, imagine if it was The Cure, what an outcome that would be, The Hanging Garden belting out from The Pyramid Stage on the last night of the festival is the stuff dreams are made of.

Am I literally the only one who wouldn't give a toss about seeing prince? Purple rain thats all I know.....and I'm guessing it'd be same for most people,....he's never been a hugely popular artist in the uk.....maybe when he was at his peak but even that was a long long time ago....baffling why so many think he'd be able to pull off a headline slot at any uk fest let alone glasto,

He has protected his legacy, hes not seen a lot so is a special attraction, hes a diva, he puts on a great live show, is a great musician, has a large back catalogue and has tunes that blokes and girls enjoy equally.

I'm not a massive fan but any festival that gets Prince has booked a tier 1 act and a guaranteed packed field.

Call us "picky" when it comes to "first post experts" on who is playing.

For purely selfish reasons I don't want him to play as my boyfriend will want to see him and I'll probably be guilt tripped into seeing him and I'll be bored and everyone else will be enjoying it and it'll be an all around terrible experience and I'll be thinking "why couldn't it have been George Michael?".

I have to say until the rumours last year and the super fandom from people on this board I just viewed prince as another washed up 80s pop star snd would certainly never have linked him with headline slots in modern times .....has he had some kind of transformation I'm not aware of? Lol

I'm in the same boat, I'll 100% be elsewhere. Don't get it all, everyone is different though..

    • Have you tried Anna von Hausswolff yet? Great singer, and she's from Gothenburg so guess she'll be extra excited to show her skills, especially after she unfortunately had to cancel her early summer dates.    Different style, but Oklou for me was the highlight of Primavera (apart from Geese), really enjoyable relaxed music.
    • A few bigger acts that did other similar festivals this year but not Truck, wouldn't be surprised to see one or two of these (if they're touring):   Reytons The Streets Blossoms Sophie-Ellis Bextor Rick Astley Scissor Sisters Dizzee Rascal   Truck on the undercard seems to rotate a lot of it every 2/3 years, expect to see some of these (if they're touring): Yard Act Sports Team Sea Girls Pale Waves Fat Dog Peace Swim Deep Courting   Hope Westside Cowboy and Radio Free Alice are booked again and get some bigger slots next year        
    • I read a reliable source saying there's not enough time to stress test and have worked through any major financial decisions between now and then.   So guarantees this budget will just be tinkering at the edges only.
    • Thanks @sisco. Looking forward to it!
    • Looking like will be bringing a 2-3 month old to Glastonbury next year
