Should add that I do think they'll bring the hits (well, more popular stuff) to the Pyramid. Wouldn't shock me to see Creep make an appearance. 

Godddddddddddddd damn I can't believe all y'all are wanting to trade a beautiful, life-affirming 2017 headline slot to watch the same band play songs they don't wanna play from twenty years ago.

[Hugh Jass]

Only problem with Paranoid Android is that you're practically begging for it to piss down.

Of all the big pre-Kid A songs I'd love to see on the Pyramid it would be Karma Police. Just fot the singalong.

A large percentage of Radiohead's fans *are* middle aged women now anyway!

Early polling suggests that Adele's crowd will be way, way younger and ready to take it off the dial than the balding sea of Guardian readers who will congregate for the 'head.

Didn't say I wanted Creep. Just that it wouldn't surprise me if they brought it out as a crowd pleaser.

I'm not going in 2017 so sod the headliners.

Will a crowd be that familiar with anything off Drones? Or The 2nd Law? Or anything that isnt Uprising from The Resistance? 

Muse obviously are obviously less popular than the other two, where you just can't escape Coldplay and Adele. I still think their set will be quite a lot more familiar than the type of set Radiohead might play. It also helps that people have chose to go and see Muse headline, whereas you get people waiting for the headliner at the sub slots. I'll be there if they play that slot anyway. Madness, TLSP, Radiohead then New Order is an absolutely superb night.

True.

But, fuck 'familiar':

Radiohead's set will be inherently BETTER. 

They're good enough to transcend all that 'for a [nearly] headliner act to make an amazing impression / show everyone has to 'know' the songs' bullshit.

 

And - fuck it - they could do that by playing mostly AMSP songs with an orchestra.

I could veer off into whinsome hyperbole here...but you get the picture.

[Alan_C]

They would be a great booking in that slot for more than one reason obviously. Massively increases the chance of LCD Soundsystem playing on Sunday. At least I hope anyway. It would be a kick in the bollocks if they put Discloure on the Sunday.

[tevaburger]

it's been mentioned on here for a month-plus i know, but where did the info come from that we have to stand in the pit and endure Last Shadow Puppets before the inevitable 90 mins of Radiohead. I noticed Neil hasn't elevated them to that 3rd Pyramid spot yet, but how sure are we that's who we're getting? Was hoping for something better, Flaming Lips/'03-quality at least...Tame Impala would fit in nicely there, as would Art Garfunkel of course

I'm also fully prepared for the sad inevitability of missing Kurt Vile & the Violators because of the Radiohead thing

Neil has info that Saturday its Madness, TLSP, ?, Adele. If you look at the rumours page he doesn't put stuff in day/stage unless he is certain of it, but he's confident that info is right.

If you didn't have to watch the support act to get into the pit for the Stones or Dolly then I doubt you'd have to do it for this.

[brettredmayne]

Tomorrow night and we will know the basis of what radiohead are playing .

Still holding out for strings and a choir

It's not really a case of trading since none of us have tickets for next year, and there are zero guarantees they will headline next year.

familiar with what he does...just wondered why madness have always been there, but not the Lost Shadow Puppets

i was perhaps a bit over-cautious for Stones and went in before Elvis...great afternoon, early evening mind you, but surely it was difficult to barge into the pit right after Primal Scream, w/o a truly impressive effort? surely it couldn't have been an easy stroll from say, up at the park watching Rodriguez...or down the hill from Stevie Winwood.

and Radiohead fans are pretty obsessive...

Haven't heard anything about TLSP's day or stage - it's just an assumption. One I agree with, but an assumption nonetheless.

I'm climbing up the walls with not knowing. Fucking ridiculous we need to know soon.
