our thoughts of ZZ Top being third on the Pyramid could be off, which would leave an open slot for either Beck or Tame Impala to fit in above them (the other taking the Sunday third slot). although i do agree the lineup is looking awfully jam packed up top as it is

Muse, Foals, Tame Impala, ZZ Top

Adele, Radiohead, Last Shadow Puppets, Madness

Coldplay, Ellie Goulding, Beck, ELO

an insanely strong top lineup regardless of it it's to your taste, even if you remove Radiohead from the equation

That makes sense, although i thought Madness were on the Sunday. Dunno why I think though, mind.

I think the Radiohead rumour is simply that they're playing, and the Adele sub thing is just a weird theory.

Definitely think they can sub the Pyramid. They're bigger than or on a level with most recent Pyramid subs, Could even be third down that day as we don't actually know The Last Shadow Puppets are third down Saturday; it's just a theory again.

Didn't Neil's latest Radiohead info suggest they were subbing Adele?

Obviously I'm biased but I couldn't see Tame Impala subbing Adele, so I don't think this effects the Saturday sub at all. I think it does call into questions the three 3rd Pyramid acts, all of which, while having strong acts against them in our predictions, are up for grabs in terms of availability.

The only possible slot, and I reckon it's very unlikely, for Radiohead is subbing Adele. It's fucking annoying this. Basically one of those c**ty jigsaws made up of only clouds and sky.

That does look like Tame Impala will be there. Where they play I don't know, either before or after Foals makes most sense to me although it could be Park or even a massive booking for John Peel stage. To be honest I don't care where they play (assuming they do play) as long as they play and we all know about it is all that matters.

I'm not going to get carried away with this but it will be ace if they do end up playing! 3rd would work but they're definitely big enough to play 2nd IMO as they have quite an impressive collection of well known songs now.

they could maybe sub at a push but i think third is a far more comfortable spot for them, especially if we're talking about subbing Adele (which is seemingly the only sub spot left). between Foals and ZZ Top makes the most sense to me

They're definitely not playing above Foals. Foals are headlining Reading and Leeds this year.

No chance they will be after Foals but before them seems most likely at the moment

I don't get why Radiohead subbing would be a good thing in terms of Adele and her fears. She had these issues in the past but surely if she's thinking I'm following on from Radiohead she will be bricking it more than tame impala for example

I doubt they're taking her fears into account when choosing her sub. If Radiohead are available to book as a sub they'll book them.

No I don't think so - he just called it a "not-unreasonable-assumption". It just stems from this belief that Radiohead can only play before Adele because they're supposedly too big for secret sets and stuff.

Also, not wanting to quote your big prediction post, but there's nothing really tying Beck to the Pyramid Stage now. D'Angelo was in the mix on the poster among those acts believed to be on the Pyramid and now it's clear he was meant to be headlining West Holts but dropped out. Could well be headlining John Peel or something and Tame Impala nicks a third down placing off him.

i doubt they're gonna tell Radiohead 'sorry lads, you can't play for Adele is scared that you'll totally outdo her'. tbh, to a high portion of people in that crowd Radiohead will be nothing but an annoyance they have to endure before Adele

TDCC has said on Twitter they're not headlining the JP, so that's an open slot. 

Oh I hadn't seen that. They'll be Pyramid or Other then which leaves another act to fit in there :lol:

Didn't realise sticking my prediction into the clashfinder would draw an article from the Independent and a tweet from TDCC :lol:

    • Not necessarily but it should be, Download have a habit of messing it uo when others get the bookings on point. Good Charlotte I doubt are playing 3rd down and that too 3 that day while dreamy is too strong. I think you'd have one another day to help sell weekend tickets. I also doubt Papa Roach play. 
    • Here's a bit of a wild stab, few placings may be off, and for all I know half of these won't actually be touring next year, but screw it, it's a bit of fun   Pyramid: Sabrina Carpenter, Phoebe Bridgers, TBA (Florence + The Machine), Garbage, The Last Dinner Party, Interpol, Alex James Britpop Classical Other: Chase & Status, Teddy Swims, Clairo, The Kooks, Zara Larsson, Kingfishr, Sports Team, Orbital West Holts: Robyn, Baby Keem, De La Soul, Deltron 3030, JID, Dua Saleh, kwn, Daniela Latila Woodsies: Bonobo, Darkside, TBA (Tame Impala), Laufey, Warmduscher, Wednesday, The Lottery Winners, The Royston Club, Florence Road Park: Patti Smith, Super Furry Animals, Slayyyter, The Cardigans, Skye Newman, Kelly Lee Owens, Teen Jesus & The Jean Teasers   Pyramid: Harry Styles, The xx, Richard Ashcroft, The Pogues, Jessie J, Sigrid, Travis Other: Rosalia, Sombr, Mitski, Alex Warren, Holly Humberstone, Cat Burns, Pale Waves, Yard Act West Holts: Basement Jaxx, Elyanna, Clipse, L’Imperatrice, Nation of Language, Jim Legxacy, Yazmin Lacey, RIP Magic Woodsies: Suede, Chvrches, Bleachers, MUNA, The Cribs, Keo, Bleech 9:3, The Lilacs Park: MARINA, Magdalena Bay, Jacob Alon, TBA (Lily Allen performs West End Girl), Getdown Services, Isaac Wood, Snail Mail, Madra Salach Pyramid: Sam Fender, Hozier, David Byrne, Cher, Obongjayar, David Gray, Billy Ocean Other: Doja Cat, Deftones, Addison Rae, Ren, Viagra Boys, Maisie Peters, The Reytons, Hard Life West Holts: Kano, Thievery Corporation, Angine De Poitrine, Thee Sacred Souls, Brooke Combe, Sasha Keable, Master Peace Woodsies: The Wombats, Metronomy, Geese*, Dry Cleaning, EsDeeKid, Sienna Spiro, Cowboy Hunters, Radio Free Alice Park: Big Thief, Laura Marling, MJ Lenderman, Richard Dawson, Oklou, Maruja, Dead Dads Club, Ratboys   *There's always one band booked for Woodsies that ends up being massively under-billed and gets shut down really early. They'd be better off playing somewhere like Other sub, but I could see the G getting them to play a smaller stage while it's still possible
