louise2014 Posted October 14, 2016 Report Share Posted October 14, 2016 Where's the Ed Sheeran rumour come from? So far no tour dates/album that I've seen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Sun (who are usually pretty good with this stuff) announced that he was one of next years headliners some time ago. he may not have anything announced yet but it's a fairly safe bet that he'll have a new album out and be touring next year, and what with him voicing his desire to headline the festival it seems like a fairly obvious and easy booking for both parties. the only thing standing in his way at the moment is the Daft Punk rumour, which is almost definitely misguided imo. can't see past the trio being Stone Roses, Radiohead and Ed Sheeran myself Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe he gets cheap deals or something. He played Meadowbank last year, which has been on the verge of demolition for years, and it's the first gig I can recall being on there for about a decade. first gig there since T in the Fringe way back in 2007, that feels longer ago than that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I admire the restraint it pains me to paint them in any kind of desirable light, but they have made a habit of getting this stuff right in the past (despite pushing Foo Fighters instead of Muse until the last minute this year). the Sheeran article came out of nowhere so imo it must've come with some kind of information behind it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've seen a lot more about Daft Punk in recent weeks. From the small amount I saw of Ed's set in 2014 he seemed to have the crowd on board - admittedly I did wander off to watch The Wailers. I'm intrigued if Bastille will be back as they have a new album...sub headliner on the other? However, as this is the legends thread I'll leave such speculation for more appropriate places Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, as this is the legends thread I'll leave such speculation for more appropriate places i think the Daft Punk rumour is taking off because of how rare it is for them to tour/how huge it'd be for them to play Glastonbury. it'll probably amount to nothing in the end, but we shall see. it'd certainly be a whole new level of hype if they're in the picture Bastille only played this year (sub headlining Other) so i'd be surprised if they returned next year. they'll probably end up playing every other festival instead Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
