Headliners 2015

[Matt42]

Yeah I reckon Alt-J will slot under Flo on the Pyramid. Wouldn't look too out of place third down if Flo is subbing, but also would be a strong enough sub if Flo gets the bump up.

Ed Sheeran was third down sunday, so yeah it's not impossible for them to get a strong act third down.

[Spindles]

Amongst all this "Other Stage Headliner" chat, what happened to Hot Chip? I thought they were a shoe-in?

Reckon they'd sub, rather than headline.

[Spindles]

and I now do have something placing the piddling purple prat in the area!

I can't verify anything of what I've just been told, but it's more than I've had up till now.

Great news for us prat fans.

as a headliner? nah, that was always wishful thinking on everybody's parts - wouldn't be surprised if they headlined JP or subbed Other again

somebody came on and said they had info Prince was in London around June time so i'm guessing it's something similar. good stuff

[eFestivals]

just seems odd they would self confirm someone for the festival UNLESS that act had the go ahead to be announced, maybe i'm clutching at straws tho

I reckon that all it is is that they've had an act book themselves in telling the venue it's a Glasto warm up show, and the venue has repeated that.

Well that saved me reading back on 400-odd posts!!

[st dan]

It's definitely going to be Prince isn't it? Everything points that way.

Trying to convince ourselves otherwise is pointless!!!

that's pretty much what i've just been told, tho I don't know if its from the same person as you saw.

[kingcrawler]

How about Iggy Pop for the other stage saturday?

I don't think he's big enough for that sort of slot anymore but he's playing Holland that day anyway. I reckon he'll be 3rd/4th down on the Pyramid on the Friday.

[CaledonianGonzo]

The board is set. The pieces are moving.

[Hugh Jass]

And i feel ashamed for anyone watching them over the Stones

I don't think I spoke to a single person that night who was at C&S.

Anyone on here go? Curious to know how busy it was (not curious enough to endure any footage).

It could be Courtney Barnett actually. Already common knowledge she's playing.

yep that's where i see him, with something slightly less 'rawk' slotted between him and Foos

Good shout. I bet it's her.

[Riggins]

quite possibly yeah, either way we will have another name to add to the line up tomorrow!

though watch Prince (if he were to be potentially playing) cancel after hitting up the forum and seeing eFests calling him a 'piddling prat' on here.

[Matt42]

Could this be the year ... Could this actually be the fucking year

Have they fucking got him FINALLY? After like 10 years of trying haha!

My sister went, she said the crowd was massive and she loved.

Bare in mind she got so drunk we had to take her back to the tent, and because we were camped in oxylers she watched them from the tent.

Interesting! When you talk about him being in London, are we talking big London? (i.e. Hyde Park or whatever) Or are we talking small-scale London as a warm-up? Cos I could still see the little bastard doing the former and avoiding the festival.

It could be Courtney Barnett actually. Already common knowledge she's playing.

Was about to say, could be her or Father John Misty, probably the right size act for it to be 'huge' to a very small venue but already common knowledge for G.

[MichaelsBeard]

the 'best' info i've had is that Chems are Sunday.

Against someone pop on the Pyrmaid maybe? That Taylor Swift rumour won't shift and everything still indicates her to me. Dearly hope I'm wrong.

[Bobinup]

Yeah I reckon Alt-J will slot under Flo on the Pyramid.

Fucking hell. It'd be like The Black Keys and Kasabian all over again. Nightmare,

[Spindles]

Am I the only one who thinks that the Chems are a bit of a tired booking as a headliner these days?

[mr gumby]

The salted pork is particularly good.

Shit, wrong quote. Never mind......

[giantkatestacks]

Not until I see his name on the Pyramid screens as Next and the purple confetti cannons are loaded will I believe it.

N o spells no.
