Headliners 2016

[H.M.V]

I concur

 

 

Have to say haven't a fucking notion what you boys are up to but this did make me LOL

[paulmuchmore]

I feel if we don't get the Foos we do need another "rock" headliner. I do actually quite like Coldplay, but when paired with Adele it does seem very middle of the road/Radio 2. I'd bet that Sam Smith would sub too, and I'd end up slitting my wrists.

I'd personally like Muse but there's that "second year of touring" rule. Would have to be Biffy or an older legend really. Or do we go into the world of rap again? Don't think anyone other than Eminem is big enough really, and I don't think he's likely.

Haven't the Foo Fighters already been confirmed for Pinkpop 2016?

have they? i definitely seem to remember something being said about them returning to one of the festivals they cancelled, but can't remember what

Just checked, and it's not as clear cut as I was remembering it, and it's via Google Translate so it's a bit dodgy and there's always a risk of something getting lost, but the Pinkpop organiser seems to think they'll be back.

The first headliner is round, apparently.

If it is not Foo Fighters then AC/DC have to be the strongest candidates

Unlikely Download can afford AC/DC, Iron Maiden and Sabbath

They are allegedly in Europe next May / June

They loved Coachella and said they would like to do more festivals

They are probably retiring end of this tour so great chance to get a big pay day with the extra sales a Glasto performance brings

Came here to catch up...

 

... I leave not understanding a joke and wanting to eat Fajita breads

Do you like Quorn?

[AdamWillingham]

Coldplay are rumoured for an outdoor gig in Exeter in June next year. 

Glastonbury is looking very likely to me. 

[Terence Fletcher]

AC/DC (Or Foo Fighters)

Adele

Coldplay

I'm so confused :(

[paulmuchmore]

I would be pretty pleased if ACDC were one of the headliners. Preferably at the expense of Adele

[Matt42]

Not been discussed yet surprisingly but

Here it begins, hope you're ready for an Adele dominated christmas - might be a good present for a family member

Just from this snippet you can tell that she's coming back to dominate

Anybody  in??

Spratt is the best character since Mister Pamouk.

Nobody comes close to my Daisy. The world needs a Daisy spin-off show more than Doctor Who needs rescuing from Moffat.

If they sack off Eminem and promise we can have a whole week of the weather that accompanied Snoop's last visit, sure.

[TheSilence]

That'd be some show. Definitely not gonna be for Glasto though, sadly.

Would have the potential to be the biggest and best show the pyramid had ever seen. Shame it will never happen.

Elton John has just announced a stadium show in Exeter on Glasto week. Possible headliner?

or Sunday Legend? Not that many legends  have more hits than Elton. Probably the biggest possible booking it could be.

Jean Michael jarre is touring starting in June in England and doing festivals

has anyone seen Terence and Bon Scott in the same (chat) room?

What's your thoughts on the lead singers ability to sing on consecutive nights Terence?

 

[galeforcerob]

I'm not surprised if the Foo's aren't playing. I know that mostly everything ME says turns out to be untrue, but when he said he had headliners for the next two years I automatically thought that the Foos would be instantly slotted in for 2018 after releasing Sonic Highways 2.

[galeforcerob]

Now just give me Muse and i'll be happy.

I swear he does shows around Glastonbury every year.

As much as I would like to work on my meerkat costume for next year, it probably means nothing.
