It's a risk worth taking.

How is that a risk worth taking

Because the payout is a Radiohead headline set on the Pyramid stage.

If it happens, I don't give a shit where I am before or after.  Radiohead on the Pyramid.  Bliss.

Innit

Radiohead > New Order would be an incredible Saturday night for me!

[DJ Cull]

If hopes and dreams were bitcoins some people in this thread would be very rich indeed lol

[SwedgeAntilles]

Foals > Sigur Ros

Radiohead > New Order

PJ Harvey > LCD Soundsystem

Utterly ridiculous and - bizarrely - not implausible

Sames.

Seeing as Radiohead are a headline level act, if they are playing sub to Adele it'd surely have to be a longer than average set for that slot, right?

Good gravy. I mean, gee whizz by jove. The mere thought that this is plausible is making me queezy.

The point was that they do headline and the only risk was getting tickets. I was only being light hearted anyway.

Libs got 70-75 mins so I don't see why not. Hopefully 90 mins

You could even do Foals > EITS > Sigur Ros if you were quick/tactical/invented teleporting 

[MichaelsBeard]

IF (and it's a big IF) Radiohead do sub, this has got to be maybe the strongest set of Pyramid acts ever. Securing Muse, Adele, Coldplay and Radiohead is phenomenal even if all them acts aren't to your taste.

 

Radiohead into Adele would be a quite unbelievable coup. Possibly a little bit too unbelievable for my liking. YET Radiohead still haven't been announced for any UK festivals which is a tad perplexing when they're playing them all over the shop.

We've got 6 weeks, I'll give it a go.

Quite.  If Radiohead can play a sub slot, anything's possible.

[home to you]

I don't know whether to get excited or not. Partly because Dental is right (they probably won't headline next year) and partly because we've been back and forth too many times, I can't handle further heartbreak .

Obviously it'll be f*cking awesome if it happens though!!

I've gone all in, been texting mates about it and everything.

I just told my boss about getting a ticket yesterday and his words were 'you fucking c**t' lol - I didn't even know he liked Radiohead! Oh well..... gigs with your boss are a bad idea anyway.

The sun is beginning its decent. Its 8pm and crowds gather around the Pyramid to see who is filling this mysterious gap in the scheduling of the Pyramid stage.

Radiohead walk onstage. The curtain behind them falls to unveil a full orchestra.

The opening bars of Burn The Witch begins to fill the pyramid field as Jonny conducts.

Nice way to keep the speculation going Neil...

 

but lets all be honest, it isn't going to happen. 

[ghostdancer1]

must be about time for the Adele/sunset/primetime BBC set with Radiohead on after theory again....

Would be a strange crowd, for sure. I can imagine it'd be an exaggerated version of the clusterfuck that was Nick Cave into Mumfords

Exaggerated? Radiohead are a massive, headline-sized band with several hits that the masses will know. Nick Cave is a terrifying bloke none of the Mumford crowd have ever heard of who ran around the stage/crowd shouting about fucking people in their "motherfucking ass" and shooting people in the head.

Well, BMTH in between those two on Sunday, but it can be Beck subbing Pyramid so that we can do PJ Harvey > Beck > LCD Soundsystem.
