I still love the idea of BMTH playing to Adele's crowd, to be honest

I'd love to see their faces!

I guess. Any normal act subbing Adele is going to be utterly overshadowed and probably forgotten about for all but the time they're literally on stage, a booking with rarity value - that RH have in spades - is probably the only way around that.

Or an American act who are going to see the value in the exposure the TV coverage will get them, would tie into Neil's speculation about how it's been kept hush so far.

I just wanted to chip in and say that Adele does have a large fan base that aren't mum's over 40, im a 27 year old male with a mixed musical taste and I cant wait to see Adele, I also know plenty of other people in my demographic and similar demographics that are looking forward to her 

Quite right. Adele has shifted record-breaking numbers of albums for a reason - because all sorts of people like it. I don't think there's such a thing as an 'Adele crowd'.

I'm sure you're correct Big Man.

But is there such a thing as a 'not-Adele' crowd?

There's space for a Pyramid sub, circumstances could put him in the frame (along with some other acts). That's about the best we can hope for at the moment.

We had info on him playing (Blossoms told someone that New Order and Kendrick were Other headliners), but obviously Other headliners seem to be sorted now, so potentially either his position has changed or Blossoms were just wrong about his position and he is playing but before Adele.

There's also a definite reason to hold him back (BST) and Neil thinks the fact the lineup is being held back until the 1st June could point to somebody contractually not being allowed to be announced before then.

This is enough for me to still have hope. Kendrick would jump to the top of my must see list if we was announced.

No, tbh. Let's have Lemar sub instead.

Yeah inbetween Madness and 'mystery Saturday sub' apparently. Seems too high for them but I guess Alex Turner's weird fans will turn out in droves.

Surely JPT fodder?

Ah I remember the days when you could ask an Arctic Monkeys fan who TLSP are and they'd have no idea ahaha

It'd be the same incredulous and disgusted look that just about anyone would have when presented with Oli and the lads.

Yeah - They can be found at the efests meet.

Someone on another thread has just spotted that Kendrick has been added to clashfinder (Edit - Apologies I missed this part off).

WHY do me people do this and build up the hopes for people who don't really understand that I could add Rolf Harris on the clashfinder line-up if I wanted, not the Kidz field obviously (Too dark?).

[CaledonianGonzo]

Why don't you just ignore it and use the eFestivals line up page if you want to know who's playing when?

I do. I just feel that it is cruel 

[CaledonianGonzo]

 

Wait a minute, lads.  The fact that Adele plays guitar changes everything.

[Spindles]

Her hitler hairdo is making me feel ill.
