Spindles Posted May 30, 2017 Report Share Posted May 30, 2017 Well, that was a shock! That frees up a headliner in what I thought was a top-heavy lineup for me. How they will be received by the chairs and blankets brigade mid-afternoon remains to be seen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

evilduck Posted May 30, 2017 Report Share Posted May 30, 2017 Craig David - Run The Jewels - Katy Perry is both ridiculous and amazing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kalifire Posted May 30, 2017 Report Share Posted May 30, 2017 Their success deserves it but their sound doesn't. Weird. Delighted there's no clashes with them but I'd have taken Saturday night a top John Peel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gucci Piggy Posted May 30, 2017 Report Share Posted May 30, 2017 Oh fuck off. Fucking Phoenix, they headlined that stage last time they played! I wanted to see Phoenix but now I feel nothing but animosity towards the stupid French arsewipes. What a shit set this is gonna be compared to headlining JP.

FloorFiller Posted May 30, 2017 Report Share Posted May 30, 2017 I know this placement is a shiter for some of you, but that run of RTJ > Katy Perry > The National > Foos pleases me greatly. Longest I will've been at the Pyramid for years. Think they'll be awesome on the Pyramid n'all. Bring along Zack De La Rocha as well to make it extra special ey lads?

Huge crossover between people cheesed off at this and people delighted that ATCQ cancelled on the Friday night. As they sow so shall they reap.

kalifire Posted May 30, 2017 Report Share Posted May 30, 2017 I wonder what the crowd who are there to listen to Craig David sing about making love on a Wednesday and Katy Perry warble about fireworks are going to make of whole faces being pushed back or knocked off.

big__phil Posted May 30, 2017 Report Share Posted May 30, 2017 Awww man, that's pretty much the worst slot for me. Clashing with BadBadNotGood and Loyle Carner is a real kick in the stones. Gonna be a real rush back to West Holts for Toots after as well. Need to get there early enough to get in front of the part-timers. Can't imagine the atmosphere will be the same at the front as it will the back! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jed300 Posted May 30, 2017 Report Share Posted May 30, 2017 Positioning will be absolutely key for this. I was around 6/7 rows back for the West Holts gig and it was incredible. Other people who were further back have commented it wasn't so good. I've never watched 2 acts consecutively at the Pyramid but Craig David>RTJ>Katy Perry will be 3 in a row. I've also never wondered anywhere near the pit for RTJ requires this. I'll be the one wearing the huge Unicorn horn. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EZYSEY Posted May 30, 2017 Report Share Posted May 30, 2017 My 2 must sees RTJ and Loyle Carner. Shit slot for RTJ and its a bit of a deal breaker as I can't see it being as crazy as i was hoping it would be. I'll probably bail half way through and watch the 2nd half of Loyle Craner which will go off in the JP tent for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaledonianGonzo Posted May 30, 2017 Report Share Posted May 30, 2017 I saw the Loylester last month and enjoyed it a lot, but it was, relatively speaking, fairly chilled and lowkey. Run and the lads will be the smart choice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the wonderwhy Posted May 30, 2017 Report Share Posted May 30, 2017 Loyle is also doing a pretty extensive tour after he's wrapped up on the festival circuit. As RTJ have been over a couple of times already this year I doubt they'll do the same. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Badlands Posted May 30, 2017 Report Share Posted May 30, 2017 Loyle is on the (very short) list at Kendall this year so it’s gonna be RTJ all the way for me. Personally think it’s a great place to have them – lets hope they soundcheck the mic’s properly. The Saturday sunshine run of RTJ/Toots/Avalanches is going to be the stuff of legends in years to come. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

simian_mobile_mushrooms Posted May 31, 2017 Report Share Posted May 31, 2017 Basically as soon as the right hon. gentleman Craig David finishes im going to buy a cold cider and make my way right to the front of RTJ. It's going to be stunning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sloseph Posted May 31, 2017 Report Share Posted May 31, 2017 I was looking forward to seeing Loyle again, he's a good live act and a great guy but he's at the beginning of his career and has a lot of touring in front of him. RTJ on the pyramid should be fantastic as long as the crowd is decent, if enough of us get nice and close to the front it will be incredible I'm not against watching a bit of CRAIG David so it shouldn't be hard, my only worry is getting out fast enough to make it to Toots Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
willsnewman Posted May 31, 2017 Report Share Posted May 31, 2017 Going to have to go with Badbadnotgood this time. Worst clash of the weekend for me with RTJ and Loyle and Factory Floor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guy Incognito Posted June 10, 2017 Report Share Posted June 10, 2017 https://riotmag.co/run-jewels-something Posters have popped up in London and Manchester saying 'coming soon''. Also there is a countdown to something on their website, most likely big autumn shows. they were on top form at Field Day, was really cool to see them with the huge inflatable fits suspended from the top of stage too as they hadn't had them the last couple times I'd seen them.
