Acid_Haze Posted March 31, 2016 Report Share Posted March 31, 2016 (edited) By the way i don't think Disclosure will be subbing Adele on the sole reason that it would make sense for them to play on the same day as Gregory Porter which is sunday. (Gregory is a guest singer for one of the main singles on their new album). This works with the theory that they'll headline the Other after BMTH. I think the eavis' have realised how much of a bad idea it is to have BMTH headline. Edited March 31, 2016 by Acid_Haze Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd imagine they will try and make it happen, when they headlined WH they brought out Ed Macfarlane and Eliza Doolittle who weren't even playing (I think?)

Gregory Porter's busy on all days other than Sunday isn't he? hence why we're certain that's when he'll be playing looking at Alunageorge's tour dates they're in America on the Wednesday, so could still easily make it over for the Saturday i suppose Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Festival Liam Posted March 31, 2016 Report Share Posted March 31, 2016 Unless Disclosure 'do a Rudimental' and disappoint everybody by getting fucking nobody from their singles out to sing. . . except Ed Sheeran who was so shit caused a thunder storm.

I think the eavis' have realised how much of a bad idea it is to have BMTH headline. I agree with this, and as much as I don't mind Disclosure, surely they are not big enough to be subbing the pyramid!? Mark Ronson (I mention him as he was mentioned shortly after your comment, albeit in another context) only managed to nab a sub slot on the Other last year.

TheRedSeat Posted March 31, 2016 Report Share Posted March 31, 2016 (edited) I still have an unsubstantiated and evidence free belief - other than the way stuff has been announced before - that there are some decent size (ie fairly high Pyramid) acts still to come. The possibilities for the top 3/4 acts on each day doesn't quite scan at the moment so hoping for a nice surprise or two on the full line up. And no I'm not talking about Radiohead Edited March 31, 2016 by TheRedSeat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jparx Posted March 31, 2016 Report Share Posted March 31, 2016 I think playing after BMTH makes the most sense. Neil's info is still pointing to BMTH headlining though...however bizarre that is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disclosure are easily big enough to sub headline the pyramid. If Foals can do it and nobody bats an eyelid, then Disclosure as a pyramid sub is a no brainer. Out of the 3 acts in the running to headline the other (New Order are nailed on) theyre the most logical sub. Ive all but given up hope of a secret sub and am resigned to it being Disclosure Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ive all but given up hope of a secret sub and am resigned to it being Disclosure I still cannot see it, but accept the point. Having said that they did headline West Holts in 2014 so maybe that gives them some additional pedigree. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwedgeAntilles Posted March 31, 2016 Report Share Posted March 31, 2016 I'm about to clutch the wrong end of biggest piece of straw I can find and beat about the bush with it: Is the 'BMTH to headline the Other' rumour purposely being put out to throw people off the fact Disclosure are actually headlining on Sunday which throws people off the fact the Saturday Pyramid sub isn't on the poster?

We are through the looking glass here people... It's not impossible that BMTH is wrong, but I think it's unlikely. I've had the same info from a number of directions, including some who've supplied already announced info that's been 100% accurate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've always said I've got no way of knowing with certainty that anything I'm told is accurate until it's announced. I might instead have said it was right in previous years (rather than the wording I've used above), but that was always meant with that caveat applied.
