Headliners 2015

[Bonneville88]

Think Neil said it's because Fleetwood Mac were asking for a price that Glasto weren't prepared to pay

That makes more sense, cheers. Shame though!

[greenArmy12]

Foo Fighters

Anyone but Kanye, probably getting pissed at a beer tent

The Who

This but with Suede on the Saturday, I beg the powers that be to put suede on the Saturday

[Gnomicide]

Foos

Should they be touring at all again next year, I think they'll finally do it.

Then it's definitely Noel. Case closed.

I can't see the mentioned gig date for Sunday in the Netherlands for Weller but I can't see it being anyone else anyway, I never thought it'd be Weller either way, just not big enough for it. Noel and Daltry fits well and the collaboration that still wasn't completely denied still has a chance.

Just realised, at the V&A Michael said the headliner couldn't be announced because they had "clashing" dates (IIRC). At the time I thought it was just an odd way of saying they had other dates that still needed to sell tickets, but perhaps he did literally mean they had clashing dates which needed to be resolved first.

Yeah, that would very much apply to The Who. No one would take that look on things as it's not expected. I did post on here recently though which I got pulled up on for, as much as The Sun are shit with a lot of things, music fest wise, they don't have such a bad rep.

[Bonneville88]

An artist with clashing dates? Anyone suggested Muse?

[ericlered]

Me too. Eagerly awaiting placement of SFA, Suede and Spiritualized (plus a whole host of unannounced acts)

Snap!

Not a lot of point, while the Coldplay info was wrong, Neil wouldn't TBC The Who without thinking it's defo them this time. Add to that the confirmation that The Who in France will only be one date now and moved back so 2 days after the Sunday and the Amsterdam date moved back a day so they'd do 28th, 30th and the 2nd of July so no back to back date either.

First coldplay misinformation now The Who, all to keep one little purple person happy, I don't know what is the world coming to?

[Bonneville88]

I'll get the lyrics to Darling Nikki tattooed on my arse if Prince is confirmed now.

[johnl]

They think it's all over....

[ImGonnaLive4eva]

Was this rumour about the who started by the sun? Or were there other sources too?

The Sun started it

So what have I missed in the last 40 pages since I've been away?? Can I get a recap? (sorry!)

The Sun have said that the final headliner is The Who (which looks pretty likely). Noel Gallagher will probably be subbing

The Who and Noel most likely. That's about it.

Very interesting!

[Larry_86]

Anyone got an idea of who will be headlining the other stage Saturday? I'm not a fan of kanyeso am hoping for a something more to my liking on a different stage.

Ben Howard is looking the most likely at the moment, unless another act gets announced and he subs the Other. I'm hoping for the latter as I really want to see Ben before going to see Kanye.

[jamesrfisher]

If The Who are headlining Sunday and the sub collaboration has not specifically been ruled out then could the sub be Wilko Johnson with Rog joining him? Not big enough I know but just a thought.

[Larry_86]

That's annoying as I'm not keen on him either, for me it's such a shame the vaccines clash with foo's if they were on the Saturday it would have been perfect for me.

[Zero_Newnab]

Vacccines clash with Foos? That sounds like a suicidal clash for the Vaccines, surely.

[Wooderson]

Hopefully some decent journo will get to the bottom of whateverthefuck has been going on with booking of headliners this year. It's been an omnishambles.

don't see how there can only be 1 date, there's no way of squeezing 2 sold out shows into 1, they won't have that many people returning tickets.

they'll either have to shuffle Amsterdam on a bit further, or come back for another Paris show some other time.

assuming they don't just completely cancel one of them...

doubt The Vaccines are gonna clash with Foos - third on Other that day is my best guess so probably finish a while before Foos are on
