Headliners 2016

[willd255]

That came from someone at William Morris who was clearly wrong. Neil if I can email you i'll tell you the details of my source re this year. I'm not trying to troll anyone here I'm a member of this forum trying to share information that I am sure is right. I will explain why I'm sure to Neil if I can

[LeeGalvin]

Yeah, what actually is the point of withholding the Adele announcement, when every man and his dog is talking about her being there? There'll be no surprise factor, as someone else said.

Radiohead it is then!

The thingy means nothing.  I should know, I spent the last hour looking at it.

I tried to find a pattern around posters and Easter.

Guess what? There isn't one.

I still struggle to belive any so called `source` would risk there position whatever it is by leaking such tightly held info, thats why I view all these rumours with suspicion. 

The problem with this is that if it wasn't for these so called 'sources' this site wouldn't be a thing. We come here to discuss the festival and we get artists via Neil and other posters based of these sources. So you kinda need to take all the TBC's with a pinch of salt.

My source is connected to those two acts specifically. I know nothing about the rest of the line up and don't claim to.

Thanks, tho i've no idea how there's any cross-connection of those two acts so that someone might say that. Care to say?

My own RH source is also connected to RH, and has a 100% record of accuracy (including previous RH stuff). Despite that, I don't rule out the possibility of it being wrong.

I also have peeps who've seen detailed stage listings, and I know that RH don't appear on the lists they've seen (tho how up-to-date or complete those lists they've seen are, I've no idea).

I'm not saying you're wrong; you might well be right. The point is that I don't feel able to rule out what I've heard given where it's come from and the history of that source.

Perhaps you might tell me something via which I can put my own RH source to bed. Feel free to PM me or email me ([email protected]) anything you don't want to say publicly.

where do you think I get all my own info from?

There's too many people involved with the whole process for none of it to leak out. The difficulty from where I'm sat is sorting the wheat from the chaff.

Does a snadwich take longer to eat than a sandwich?

What sort of bread makes a snadwich?

Fully expect the lineup to drop anytime in the next 11 days as I fly out the country tonight. Bastards

something still doesnt fit for me and the adele rumours....I mean its more then just a rumour its pretty much become the `expected` last headliner not just on this forum but all over the web.....you go on any glasto site or fanpage or forum and there talking about adele as a certainty......

You know ordinarily, I'd be right with you. But the Stone Roses rumour mill that came to nothing has taught me that a tiny spark can cause a serious forest fire on the internet in no time, and not necessarily with any validity.

it's of better quality.

It's going to be a big fat naan wrap of tandoori chicken and spicy honeyed parsnips - that's so frigging big (the biggest you've ever seen) it'll take me the best part of an hour to eat, and all for about 4 quid. I just love living where I do.

[PapaBentley]

Following on from the recent bakery phase what sandwich are you going for?

sorry the page updated as I sent this

In Scotland we refer to a "big fat naan wrap of tandoori chicken and spicy honeyed parsnips" as a "big fat naan wrap of tandoori chicken and spicy honeyed parsnips, jimmy"

Is it made with the 'ootsiders' of the naan?

Easter was a good thought, but you've failed to consider the phases of the moon, and the fact that it is a leap year. I've done this and something is emerging....  No wait. It's not. 

[Brave Sir Robin]

As we know, The Thingy does not give up its secrets easily. But it does show that for the past 5 festivals we've got the main poster between 27 March and 14 April. So sometime in the next 4 weeks...

[Woffy]

I'm certain The Who playing IOW makes Radiohead more likely for Glastonbury. I just can't find a ridiculously tenuous, straw clutching reason as to how yet.

That's interesting, so any rumors on the Saturday sub?

nope.

I've wondered a lot whether it might be RH in that slot or not as there seems to be no ideas for it, tho snippets I've heard from people who would probably know suggests they're not playing there (tho I can't take those as definite all the same).

Given Thom's liking for DJing in the naughty corner along with the worries they'd be of crowd issues with most secret sets, my next best guess is something like a 4am slot for RH to play live on one of the stages there ... but that's just a wild guess based on minimal other realistic options.

Neil, please stop! You really can't let me get my hopes up for that.
