Could you think of a worse crowd tho? I'm not that desperate.

totally, it wouldn't work.

Let them headline 2017 if they're not headlining this year....the prospects for next years headliners are already looking very grim otherwise!

I stopped believing, they will not play, peace ...

F*ck off. Seriously? I thought that was just something some flash mob types were organising. Aren't eavii doing something extra?

And I'll be buggered if I'm gonna turn up and be forced to have fun, I tell you!!

Apparently the Eavii are doing summink. 

But I'm still seeing tweets from that singalong mob. Chances are it'll die on it's arse. Too much time has passed.

Here's a theory (I'm sure its been suggested already because we collectively seem to have floated every idea possible) ... the sound ordinances have been re-negotiated this year, and there will be a Thursday headliner.

That wouldn't be possible without it being VERY public.

In order for any kind of significant musical volume on the Thursday, the Festival would need to apply for a new licence, or for a modification. So there'd be all kinds of consultation with residents etc to go through.

Even on the Pyramid  a Thursday night headliner would be a health and safety nightmare. No competition would see the best part of 200,000 packed into a field that can hold half that number.

Every idea?

Monday headliner?

Or my personal favourite; the company registered for the new album is called Dawn Chorus, right? 5am Pyramid.

Ooo, clever Dental. Lateral thinking!

I'm still wondering if there's a possibility that they could follow Adele.. Although, I'd love to see them in the JP tent, but surely H&S won't like that 

[FloorFiller]

Guy in the New Order thread seems to have heard through somebody who knows somebody etc that they're still definitely lined up to headline Other that night, so the Radiohead vs Adele theory is seemingly out of the window. I'm gonna stick with fourth headliner/Adele sub for now, for lack of anywhere else that wouldn't be weird as fuck for an announced Radiohead to play

I've missed the last few pages, has Fuzzy Dunlop been confirmed or not?

Shit. The posts have gradually evolved yet again to people talking as if RH are actually playing.

The Dream, man, the dream!!

Don't think anyone's dream was to have Radiohead sub Adele.

The dream is over, what can I say?

The headliners thread has offered mere scraps this year. 

Fwiw, Radiohead agnostic as I am, I sincerely hope they play for all the people on here, not least yourself, who would love to see them.

I'd like to see the status of your account when @eFestivals reads this. Not a savory character are you!

yeah you're right, sorry that was pretty out of line.

[jparx]

@eFestivals Neil, you're someone who prides themselves on getting to the bottom of these rumours and breaking news first. Is the Radiohead situation as confusing to you as it is to us? You've said you aren't fussed either way if they actually play or not, but it must seem strange to have a headliner size band floating around, with word they are playing at the festival, but absolutely zero indication as to where/when/in what capacity they will appear!
