Radiohead touring in 2016

[Alan_C]

It's fucking with my LCD Soundsystem Sunday hope.

[SwedgeAntilles]

Radiohead and Tame Impala denials. 

All in all today's been a bit of a bummer. 

[Jobseeker]

Neil you are an absolute STARMAN, managed to snag two tickets for Saturday standing!!!

LOVE LOVE LOVE

Ahhh! What is going on! Just when everything starts to point in the right direction, we get this fly in the ointment! 

Yep.

I can't dismiss what I've heard today, and yet .... there's things which just don't feel right.

Even so, what someone suggested at my prompting of Bowie's band perhaps playing before Adele feels like that might be the act for that slot. If that band is playing they can't really be put in a small slot, tho it doesn't really explain the lockdown on the info.

Can I ask - are you sure/had info that the Saturday sub hasn't been announced?

Secretive guest vocalists?

Are any of the 'definitely not'-ers suggesting any alternatives to who could be in that pre-Adele slot? (you don't have to drop names, just curious if they are saying definitely no because they know who is playing before Adele).

Nope.

I've said all along it might be a big american act (cos the UK hears less of their gossip), and I have had someone I respect suggest - purely as a guess - that it might be Beyonce. I don't really think it's right, tho there's enough about the idea for it to not be ruled out entirely.

I'm glad it worked out for you.

 

[Alan_C]

I suppose Beyonce would would fit in with the 'strong female' line-up. .

Nope, I'm not even sure about that. I just can't see who it is tho.

I don't believe it's Disclosure tho, who are the act that people thought it might be.

Wow. Beyoncé and Adele back to back would be huge.

Sorry to pester Neil, but have you heard much on Beck? I presume he is Pyramid?

You have thought for a while that Other headliners are LCD and BMTH though haven't you? Disclosure can surely only fit in as Pyramid sub or Other headliner.

could be I guess.

Tho that wouldn't require the complete secrecy that appears to exist about that slot. Telling people of a Bowie tribute wouldn't be giving the secret vocalists away.

Then again, it might just be that the angles I have to info aren't the right angles to get at that particular bit of info, which is giving a false impression of total secrecy. It wouldn't be the first time.

I don't think going up after Beyoncé would do too well for Adele's confidence.

Nope, nothing - but american acts come with less info as an average.

I'd guess Pyramid too, tho if all of the other presumptions of where acts are playing are right he'd have to be pretty early in the day, and that seems a bit odd.

Thanks. He is a must see for me and seems to be going under the radar rumour wise.

Foo Fighters perhaps?

I'm thinking 3rd down on Friday or Sunday.

[CaledonianGonzo]

If Beck's on the Pyramid then he's mid afternoon

nah. If they're gonna play over the next few years it'll be as headliners and not anything else.

I'm expecting them next year, tho their hiatus might get in the way of that.

word I hear from them that knows is that there's no way on earth it wouldn't have leaked by now if they were playing.

I can't guarantee that's correct tho how it's said to me makes sense.

Wait so Tame Impala aren't likely to play at all or just aren't likely for the Saturday sub slot? 

[Gucci Piggy]

It was always gonna be Disclosure subbing tbh.

That would be really strange, I'd be left scratching my head at why she had been booked again so soon in a lesser slot, wouldn't really make much sense, but given there's nothing much else to go on its understanble why you can't rule it out
