Well down? Check again....

 

Billed halfway down Latitude's main stage last year. Their only headliner this year who is also playing Glastonbury are Alt-J, they're 3rd down Glastonbury's main stage. Halfway down at Latitude is halfway down The Other. I love James, and know how great they are live, but they obviously aren't a headliner.

If they replace foods which for us rockier stuff fans was gonna be one of the highlights of the fest with pop divas like Taylor or Florence it won't be amusing.......promote Motörhead to headliners they more then know how to do it and they DEFINETLY have enough material!

 

Enter Shikari bump from the JP...

Last year at Wireless Drake pulled out so Kanye West (who was already one of the headliners) filled in and headlined two nights. I reckon he should do that again this year at Glastonbury.
1) because the uproar would be one of the funniest things I've seen in years

2) I'll be able to see both Kanye and Deadmau5 yay :D

Called this the other day. In the absence of Blur/Prince this would be an unbeatable solution.

Glastonbury App updated

 

with a TBA above florence

 

does this confirm that she's not getting bumped up?

No, of course it doesn't confirm anything of the sort.

It confirms that EE know that the Foo Fighters have pulled out.

Couldn't give a toss for Kanye yay or nay but 2 nights of the same act would be just an awful booking decision.

 

you do realise there are multiple acts playing two sets over the weekend?

Now that would be awesome....or though I think the show nin put on would require a fair bit more then 10 days to prepare

I think that a NIN show does take about 5 weeks to prepare but the output is usually sublime.

This is what I fear for the strength and depth of the headline slot on Friday. Will the band filling in really be able to reach their potential?

The answer is probably not isn't it.

It will never happen choice: William Onyeabor

 

Slightly more chance but still probably won't happen choice: Pulp

 

I'd like it to be out of feasible possibilities choice: Prodigy

 

What I hope won't happen choice: Coldplay

 

William Onyeabor would be amazing, don't think he could pull it off on the pyramid, he's isn't that fantastic, man

    • Not necessarily but it should be, Download have a habit of messing it uo when others get the bookings on point. Good Charlotte I doubt are playing 3rd down and that too 3 that day while dreamy is too strong. I think you'd have one another day to help sell weekend tickets. I also doubt Papa Roach play. 
    • Here's a bit of a wild stab, few placings may be off, and for all I know half of these won't actually be touring next year, but screw it, it's a bit of fun   Pyramid: Sabrina Carpenter, Phoebe Bridgers, TBA (Florence + The Machine), Garbage, The Last Dinner Party, Interpol, Alex James Britpop Classical Other: Chase & Status, Teddy Swims, Clairo, The Kooks, Zara Larsson, Kingfishr, Sports Team, Orbital West Holts: Robyn, Baby Keem, De La Soul, Deltron 3030, JID, Dua Saleh, kwn, Daniela Latila Woodsies: Bonobo, Darkside, TBA (Tame Impala), Laufey, Warmduscher, Wednesday, The Lottery Winners, The Royston Club, Florence Road Park: Patti Smith, Super Furry Animals, Slayyyter, The Cardigans, Skye Newman, Kelly Lee Owens, Teen Jesus & The Jean Teasers   Pyramid: Harry Styles, The xx, Richard Ashcroft, The Pogues, Jessie J, Sigrid, Travis Other: Rosalia, Sombr, Mitski, Alex Warren, Holly Humberstone, Cat Burns, Pale Waves, Yard Act West Holts: Basement Jaxx, Elyanna, Clipse, L’Imperatrice, Nation of Language, Jim Legxacy, Yazmin Lacey, RIP Magic Woodsies: Suede, Chvrches, Bleachers, MUNA, The Cribs, Keo, Bleech 9:3, The Lilacs Park: MARINA, Magdalena Bay, Jacob Alon, TBA (Lily Allen performs West End Girl), Getdown Services, Isaac Wood, Snail Mail, Madra Salach Pyramid: Sam Fender, Hozier, David Byrne, Cher, Obongjayar, David Gray, Billy Ocean Other: Doja Cat, Deftones, Addison Rae, Ren, Viagra Boys, Maisie Peters, The Reytons, Hard Life West Holts: Kano, Thievery Corporation, Angine De Poitrine, Thee Sacred Souls, Brooke Combe, Sasha Keable, Master Peace Woodsies: The Wombats, Metronomy, Geese*, Dry Cleaning, EsDeeKid, Sienna Spiro, Cowboy Hunters, Radio Free Alice Park: Big Thief, Laura Marling, MJ Lenderman, Richard Dawson, Oklou, Maruja, Dead Dads Club, Ratboys   *There's always one band booked for Woodsies that ends up being massively under-billed and gets shut down really early. They'd be better off playing somewhere like Other sub, but I could see the G getting them to play a smaller stage while it's still possible
    • Another Kraftwerk one for me today, as just back from seeing them.    
    • Completed my 2026 survey. Put down Super Furry Animals as my most wanted for next year but suspect the moment has gone for that. Popped a big shopping list in the box for who else you would like to see. 🙂
