TITP 2016

[kingcrawler]

I can see Snow Patrol and Calvin Harris happening as well, though given they've been away for a while Snow Patrol dropping down to being a sub is possible. Florence is a strange one for me as I still think headlining is more likely than subbing for her but given she's only subbing Glastonbury I wouldn't be too surprised if she doesn't headline anywhere next year.

[DomDom1984]

I could see Snow Patrol billed as a headliner in much the same way as The Libertines are this year.

[DGrant261]

Especially if it looks likely that they'll be doing an arena tour

I also think Florence and the Machine will sub.

Muse bit makes sense & I'm beginning to think they're probs more likely than Blur/Kol/Foos.

I can't see why even in Scotland Flo would still be billed below Snow Patrol, I think she's progressed since 2012 & they won't grow anymore when the new album is out imo and were a very weak choice in 2012. Something like this maybe...

Muse

Florence/Calvin

Mumford & Sons

Subs:

Snow Patrol

Chase & Status

Disclosure

I very much doubt Foo's or Muse will be there next year. Flo is a lock for me, and given she did a song with Calvin it wouldn't be a shock. I think KOL is the likely one out of them and Blur but don't see either that likely.

I think T will go in heavy for Coldplay as their big act. I think a Stadium Tour will be too early to include T in it, IOW more likely if they see them as important as Blur and FM to get while doing other London shows given that two nights at Wembley is quite likely.

There is supposed to be a Black Grape 21st anniversay reunion tour, expect to see them somewhere for the older folks

[DomDom1984]

Aren't Coldplay pretty much ruling out festivals and doing one more tour before buggering off?

I also don't see why Foo Fighters or Muse are that unlikely.

[abcdefg]

Could Paramore be a possibility either in 2016 or 2017? The only festival they seem to do is R&L

[Stuart1000]

I don't think they're a T headline act. Possibly a sub? I don't think they've ever played T come to think of it?

[DomDom1984]

Never done T. Could see them subbing it in the future. Can't name a headliner that's done T that's been smaller than them though.

[DGrant261]

I don't even think sub tbh. Look at where MCR & Blink/Strokes were all listed in 2011 and they are all Reading & Leeds headline sixed acts. Same goes for YMAS being three places lower at TITP then R&L last year. That kinda music has much less of a fit with TITP's demographic now so naturally bands get booked in lower slots. I'd probably say more like 3rd or Radio1 headliner.

[DomDom1984]

That's a fair post. You're probably right.

[The Man with a Plan]

Now that he has come back out of retirement and is up for recording new material what about Phil Collins to headline.

[DomDom1984]

[The Man with a Plan]

He is bigger than Calvin Harris and The Libertines.

1/10. Your standards are slipping.

Phil Collins followed by Avicii.

[Lor1]

M/S Florence() Gorrilaz. Foo fighters

R1 Chemical brothers deadmau5 madness

[DomDom1984]

I'm not buying Gorillaz ever headlining T.

[The Man with a Plan]

I'm not buying Gorillaz ever headlining T.

Are The Gorillaz even big to headline? I seen to remember a couple of songs around 2005 then another years later. They don't seen to be consistent enough but that's just my opinion. As Blur though then yeah they could headline.

I have also noticed that some band members are listed as fictional cartoon characters, how is this possible on stage?

Haven't a clue mate but it was in the NME that there touring with a new album next year.

[DomDom1984]

They might be big enough. But I can't see them doing it regardless. It'll be their own shows and maybe a middle sized festival.

If we do get a Gorrilaz return next summer it'll be Bestival & a Hyde Park show imo.

That would mean a Blur TITP headline set wouldn't be happening & any 1 of Muse/Foos/KoL/Killers would take that final headline slot along with Mumford/Flo/Calvin

[hamishrankin]

Gorrilaz have headlined Glasto, meaning they are definitely big enough to headline, whether they would fit into a T line up is a different topic all together.

[DomDom1984]

Aye, they're big enough. But what you said after is the part that I'm getting at. I just don't see them ever playing T.
