38-21.

Although I'd rather it that Glastonbury pushed the boundaries for once with the headliners.

If its Radiohead then its a bit better but the three must've been decided one really hungover morning. Who can we get that I don't need to think about whatsoever?

If its Adele then its the most tediously establishment headline bill I've ever seen Glastonbury put on.

My nan will love watching it on the telly like. So thats alright. Long as the proper punters are happy. Long as the BBC is happy that David Cameron will be happy that there won't be any angry black sweary types polluting our royal great british telly channels this year then they might just get their charter renewed instead of being sold off to Rupert Murdoch (at the best price that they could possibly get for the hardworking british proper british royal britain taxpayer honest). And self obsessed perennial gap yah student Chris Martin might be made a knight (if he hasn't knighted himself already). For services to himself and to milksops the world over.

Tricky!  I'm not a huge fan of Adele, but would definitely rather see her than Radiohead.  But I also want to see New Order that night, and if Adele and New Order clash it will be a difficult choice for me.  Whereas if Radiohead play, it will be easier as I'll watch New Order.  But overall I have to say Adele, so

45-25

Adele would be a massive coup for the festival. I would be nowhere near the set.

44 - 24.

Muse, Radiohead, Coldplay is just too house band. If muse not noounced then I'd have said get both, but now they have been the other headliner just can't be radiohead.

This vote would be a lot more one sided if half of Adele's votes weren't from people who have zero interest in actually seeing her play.

Radiohead haven't headlined in 13 years so can hardly be called a house band.

If Radiohead just payed the first 3 albums and Thom Yorke wasn't such a dick I'd go Radiohead, but Adele would be a much more interesting headliner if you ask me.

This is the setlist from the last festival Radiohead played...

 

Lotus Flower

Bloom

15 Step

Weird Fishes/Arpeggi

Kid A

Morning Mr. Magpie

The Gloaming

Separator

Pyramid Song

Nude

Staircase

There There

Karma Police

Myxomatosis

Feral

Idioteque

 

Encore:

Give Up the Ghost

You and Whose Army?

Planet Telex

Everything in Its Right Place

Reckoner

Bodysnatchers

Paranoid Android

 


No? Me neither?

I have nothing against Adele. Glastonbury is too big a place to worry about not liking a headliner.

My main issue is that I firmly believe this is the last chance for Radiohead to headline the festival. Adele could play at any point, but it feels like a now or never scenario for Radiohead.

GET OVER IT

I can't stand the warbling man, whinging about how he got dumped once when he was in private school.

GET OVER IT.

    • I want to chime in here and say that I think Simple Minds must be one of the more underrated bands of the 80s honestly. Empires & Dance and New Gold Dream are phenomenal albums. And two of my favourites of that decade in any genre.
    • Same, same. I am doing this for few years. Always works. There are some exceptions when the area completelly packed (i.e The XX this year), but even in this case it is much easier to walk from the right side. 
    • You don't have to pay for an additional ticket but the front barrier at least is all controlled by security and a lot of people stay in there for the bigger acts so if you don't get there early enough you risk not being in there.   There is an option you can pay to have fast lane access priority which they suggest you arrive 30 minutes before a headline show but the first two sections are still even for them based on capacity. I did read that it's going very corporate and becoming too money money which I agree to an extent. There are points on the two biggest stages where not only accessing these bits is priority but dedicated quicker and direct access points for them too....but at €225 for the weekend I'm not sure I want to be pulled into that. I went with Three Days Grace, Linkin Park and Maiden being my must sees so I did what I had to for the latter 2 to get in to where I needed to. You do that too much though and it'll cost you your overall enjoyment of other bands there.   As an overall experience, it's definitely overrated to what I thought it would be. I will vouch for the food being decent.    The reason I haven't just gone in a bought too is because of the extra shipping fee and then selling it on if I didnt go. By QR code its easy to transfer like, but its a lot of money to commit that it might need selling later and to sell a ticket, £300 in fact. Hopefully they won't be the only festival to get Foos while not confirmed yet and Blink. But the Blink pulling power alone is there to be seen.
