Haven't checked this thread for a few days.

Has anybody compared the official line up release to the line up that was made on this forum that everybody thought was real and had been leaked? How does it compare?

plenty on it, but they're mostly acts that are touring anyway that most people could have guessed.

several of the more surprising acts on the actual lineup weren't on the guessed one.

some acts that were expected from the guessed one weren't on the actual one.

in short: not much use really.

I've always wondered wtf this picture was, thought it was Marilyn Manson in a mask for some reason. Stumbled across it today so now i know.

The Phantom. :)

I have Winslow to thank for that actually. I randomly stumbled upon a description of Phantom of the Paradise a few months back and thought 'hey I recognise this from eFestivals' and checked it out and it was a fantastic film.

Gaga's not headliner status, in my opinion. Maybe a few years ago but not now.

She might appeal to a certain section of the Sunday crowd though especially if she wheels on Tony Bennett part way through.

I remember only 2 short years ago people were wetting themselves on here over the thought of Lady Gaga headlining as well. Has she had that bad of a fall from grace? I can't say I take much notice of her.

aye i was probably one of those people. imo, her first album (and mini album) were brilliant, but everything since has been pretty damn mediocre. her last album, Artpop, was just a mess - she seems stuck in a bit of a crossroads; wants to be weird, edgy and genre breaking, but also wants to release big chart climbing pop songs. the result is just muddled and a bit shite, and she hasn't really released a decent single in a long time. surprised none of the other festivals (TITP, V etc) have nabbed her as a headliner though - wonder if that's their decision or hers

The Fame sold nearly 3 million copies in the UK, Artpop just over 200,000. Then she did that Cheek To Cheek thing with Tony Bennett which kinda came and went. I'm sure she'd still have no trouble selling out an arena tour but as for Glastonbury I couldn't see her troubling the headline slot anymore.

My music is for Phoenix! Only she can sing it. Anyone else who tries, DIES!

    • I mean I don't think EC and FFDP are borderline sub, they wouldn't be any lower now.   2025 is about as strong as Bloodstock gets yet this year only one headline would sub and the others would play 3rd down or lower.    Machine Head wouldn't sub at Download regardless of rarity, they don't sell enough tickets and I'm not sure Gojira would sub either. Their last UK tour was a mix of smaller arenas and academy dates. Ally Pally being the only London date, not even Wembley Arena. 
    • live music / main stage will generally end around 11pm but theres dj’s and late goings on right till 4am if you are so inclined.   Drinks are about £7.50 a pint probably and yes theres lots of mixed drinks / spirits / cocktails available to buy   wonderful festival, back for my third year in a row and 4th overall
    • If anyone sees Lakefest this weekend on any sites please post here, I’ve got alerts set. Been on TFG in recent years and not sold out yet.
