Hmm yeah same. I'm already sorta hoping my headliners are gonna be Radiohead - Kraftwerk - Foos. Obviously plenty of time for that to change but with the likes of Flaming Lips/Primal Scream/Warpaint all likely to be in contention for various headline spots things are definitely going to get messy again.

Really enjoying the new Tribe album too. Wonder what the likely hood of them playing is? Someone mentioned elshwere that they were done touring...

 

I Saw Q-tip headline west holts in 2009, incredible gig. I think his 3 solo albums are worth a listen after exploring a tribe called quest.

new Gold Panda. not sure what the instrument is, but when it kicks in.. just lovely!

I've been scratching my head over why people aren't all falling over each other over worship of this album for the last few months, easily one of the best of the year.

I agree, it's fantastic and seems to have gone mostly under the radar.

I haven't got round to listening to it for some reason. The Kingdom ep was wicked though, a couple of my favourite GP tracks on there

Bit late to this party but I've just been through Powell's latest album having never heard of him before and think it's brilliant. Reminds me a lot of Suicide. 

Excited for all the top albums of 2016 albums I always seem to miss some gems through the year and clean up in December., rough trade just released there's hence how I found Powell.

The song I just checked out is cool. Will pursue that.

Which reminds me, I stumbled across this song described as "Nick Cave meets Suicide" by the YouTube comments. The rest of the album isn't quite like this but it's still very 80's inspired (his character is a washed up 80's singer) and it's just as great.

I like that, got the album on Spotify now.

I love days when you scoop up loads of new music, you can go through weeks of nothing new then completely change you're immediate go to albums in a few hours (on a particularly good day).

The best one is when you dismiss a band for a couple of albums then release one song you love that opens up there back catalogue in a new way and you can feast on it. Maybe that's just me... happened with The Garden recently (I wouldn't say they're good, but I do enjoy them now)

Was reading this and thought of this thread...

To be honest though, I do collect all of a number of specific bands releases and although I groan internally when I see another 'boxed set' appear of something I have 100 copies of already, nothing beats the experience of unboxing it.

      2027 Headliners

      By Suprefan · Posted

      Production was the only thing that could even explain why she would back out. Like they had sorted out the financials and she was fine with it and then a production meeting happened. It all fell apart. It was very clear that she was not going to compromise her show one bit and then that show in Brazil pretty much confirmed it. There was like one element they couldnt pull off outdoors, but it was negligible since the rest was a carbon copy of the tour she had been on. Glasto is not willing to make any bold changes on the Pyramid stage so then theyre kinda stuck in terms of what some acts want/demand. I think the easiest solution to that is putting her on Friday. You deal with the changes for one night and then re configure for the rest of the weekend. In 24 they were fortunate to have had Dua and Coldplay on Fri and Sat so they could both use the b stage. But I think it was removed for Sunday?     I saw a random rag article earlier that said Olivia Dean turned down Glasto BECAUSE her ex ( not even confirmed dating ) Harry Styles was playing the fest. hahahaha

      No argument that he’s bigger than ever, I just have no enthusiasm for it.

      2027 Headliners

      By Suprefan · Posted

      Keep in mind those crowds were full of teenagers. Glasto aint full of teenagers. Theres no way she could demand headline and get it because they got other acts to give the slot to who deserve it with a bigger catalog. Reading/Leeds would headline her cause its still LN.  If the fest was struggling its Other headline. But a 3rd down Pyramid is likely the landing spot. Itll go down like the Camila Cabello performance pretty much.
