Headliners 2015

[eFestivals]

If that's the case then can't see alt j as anything but pyramid third down

that appears to be right, yup.

[Waapster]

Libertines i reckon. would fit in to the 'they're probably British' (sic) comment that Michael made. don't think he could mistake Swift for being British

I think you need to let this quote from ME go. There's been a lot of water under the bridge since then...

[Franky]

It's come from someone who has a 100% success rate with me - tho not for a huge number of items. So he either makes very good guesses, or he has a real source of info.

I believe he's right, but I only get to find out for sure when things get announced.

Bugger !

[Franky]

When do Arcadia normally release their lineup ?

[MEGABOWL]

....unless it was the Roses that were going to do it but then (uncharacteristically!) failed to make it

has there? as far as i can tell he was directly talking about The Who with this comment, and possibly the sub act as well. it's the most recent quote we have from him regarding the current headliner and sub, who he was definitely talking about at the time (not any previously 'booked' headliners etc)

It came on the Friday between the full poster drop and the full lineup split.

Yeah, you could be right. It's just that the "British but..." quote seems to have been retrofitted to so many bands recently. At the time he said it I wonder if they had any certainty about the Sunday.

was only a couple of weeks ago - they must've had SOMEBODY in mind for that Sunday slot by then. i can't see them still phoning up acts asking 'd'you wanna sub Glastonbury!?'. it may not be The Libertines, but with Noel now seemingly ruled out, i can't think of many other British acts (or acts all together) who are touring around the time but not busy that night / have full touring schedules

[briddj]

Ah really?? Ffs! 2 good bookings they could of got there!

Black Grape have their own gigs on the Friday and Saturday (nothing on the Sunday though).

[found home in 2009]

well, this is what we're all assuming - it seems to add up considering they can only do the Sunday and the Sunday's Other headliner is seemingly Chemical Brothers (subbed by Jamie T). they may fit in elsewhere, but third on Pyramid seems the best bet

Jamie T is free everyday of the festival, why as everyone presumed he'll be Sunday, is there any solid info on that?

Personally really hoping there is no overlap between his set and the Who as I want to see both of them.

His booking agency have Sunday listed on their website.

[Hugh Jass]

Kraftwerk is an interesting one. Maybe not under The Who. But I'm surprised they have not been involved at all over the last few years.

The only UK appearance that comes to mind is the Latitude headline slot. They have been in and around Europe non stop for the last few years. But nothing in the UK.

They headlined Bestival about five years ago. It was feckin brilliant!

Cheers, sounds like it's pretty definite he'll be Sunday and I'm going to have a mad dash between stages.

[Boopickledaddy]

Belle and Sebastian. Their website has them as Sunday and the assumption seems to be that they are headlining The Park.

Saw them in Bristol last night, thought they were great.

[ClementsMike]

I was at the Bristol gig too. Excellent stuff

[Keithy]

Saw them in Bristol last night, thought they were great.

Who did they have as support? Was meant to be Dum Dum Girls and they pulled out.

[ClementsMike]

Lower Dens supported B&S

[ghostdancer1]

Neil, did you ever hear anything else either way about Taylor Swift after those 2 bits of info that she would be there on Sunday?

or has it all been quiet since then?

[JoBalls]

Anyone else casually refreshing Twitter repeatedly just in case?

[Waapster]

MATT42 GO AND GET A BISCUIT!

[Matt42]

Nah

[Waapster]

There won't be any news tonight then...

[thewayiam]

Just to ask, where is that Paul Weller Sunday gig date? Songkick doesn't mention it, his own website doesn't mention it and last I saw his Facebook didn't either.

[5co77ie]

hearing it's Weller in support
