Past it, bland and shite. Yup, looks about right.

The thing with Noel is also that he hasn't really got any festival he could do I don't think that weekend that he didn't this time. I think Faithless opposite Muse would be good but I don't see them on Other stage. I'd be there for Oasis sing along's probably. If The Prodigy are booked opposite Coldplay then I only see one winner.

I read somebody on here saying before that Faithless sounded shite recently? Is that right or just a one off? I can't imagine how, it's not as if Maxi sings really.

Prodge opposite Coldplay would be good. We convinced a mate to come for the first time next year (by convinced I mean he saw how much we loved it and decided he had to go), but he doesn't really like much of the music at Glastonbury (he's a metal fan really). He saw Muse at Download and went from despising them to loving them, and he loves The Prodigy, so those would be nice to appease him.

That's cool, nothing to say they are the subs but I wouldn't bet against Ellie or Noel G. If it was Sande I'd only see one sub and one main header I think.

I have to say I think Bloc Party into Faithless would be ace although they probably should be no higher than 4th now and 3rd Other which but I'd feel without a little dark it would be lost a little maybe.

Nah Bloc Pary have to be JP headliners (though I'm expecting 2nd/3rd down Other) opposite Adele.

Friday Muse Pyramid

Saturday Bloc Party JP

Sunday Prodge Other

Cheers.

Adele would be one of the biggest catches in living memory for the festival wouldn't she? I wouldn't be anywhere near her personally, but she's fucking huge and the chances of seeing her are limited. Off the top of my head I can only think of Rolling Stones, Bowie and McCartney off the top of my head.

Honestly? Do you not think The Stone Roses smashing it at Glastonbury would be one of the most talked about sets ever? Adele couldn't get anywhere near that kind of cache. I think she be about as good as Beyoncé ie fine for 20 minutes with your girlfriend before you get fidgety, then pissed off and then drag her round to the other double quick to watch QotSA

I wouldn't even give her 20 minutes of my time. I was just speaking from a sense of the scale she is on right now. I'm with you as well, I'm making myself skint to go and see The Stone Roses, after booking a load of other stuff!

the actual festival doesnt matter anywhere near as much as the hype generated beforehand these days. Adele would generate much more hype therefore that is who they would rather book.

The brand is all important.

    • 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. 🙂
