It's like Emily booted up Glastonbury on the default setting.

I'd probably only see Radiohead, might see Coldplay if i'm too dead to go anywhere else

It's got one band I really wanna see, and two I'm not too bothered about seeing

perfect trio

1 band I love (Coldplay), 1 band I like but have seen at Glastonbury so a good back up if nothing else (Muse), 1 band I just don't get (Radiohead).

Cant complain at all.

My thoughts?

Michael or Emily saying "bands" doesn't necessarily get to mean only bands and not solo acts. 'Bands' is the most common way of saying 'acts' and so doesn't necessarily mean just bands. I don't think it's enough to change any thinking on Adele by itself.

It is, all the same, slightly more suggestive of Radiohead.

And it's good to have the Foos put to bed. I was always pretty sure they weren't in the mix.

I really fear that everything is pointing towards Muse/Adele/Coldplay :(

Don't get me wrong, it's an impressive set of acts, but I love seeing curve ball acts appear, even if I have zero personal interest. I know it's more than the Pyramid headliners, but there really is something special about the slot.

Could  Adele play but not headline?

it's not impossible, tho seems unlikely.

It's not like she'd have a different sized crowd if she played lower down the bill, and that more than anything seems to be the factor which would have her decline to play.

There's one of your precious female slots taken then.

feel like they're itching to get stuff out this year. That's a big booking but even so, in previous years they wouldn't have gone out of their way to announce it. Do we think we'll actually get the lineup pre-balance this year?

    • The first half of that game was cracking but then I fell asleep at half time. Maybe that's just the momentum of things.

    • A win is a win but it was a very poor game with only 4 shots on target in the whole game. Scotland obviously handed a massive bonus with Brazil and Morocco drawing but I don't think either of them will be too worried.
