Calvin Klein Posted January 21, 2017 Report Share Posted January 21, 2017 (edited) I still dont get why we are so confident that Bon Iver will be there. I just don't want to be let down when the line up comes out. Edited January 21, 2017 by Calvin Klein Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just don't want to be let down when the line up comes out. Tbh it's kind of resting on the fact that he showed up the past two years so seemingly has a fondness for the place. I can't imagine he'd be on site twice without the Eavi trying to strike up a deal for him to come back with his own band when they're back on tour. Christ knows what goes on behind the scenes though and it might not fit in with his schedule or something. Just gotta keep on hoping Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dentalplan Posted January 21, 2017 Report Share Posted January 21, 2017 Bjorky G would be a perfect Other Stage headliner opposite Sheeran, now I think about it. West Holts is the dream like and there are loads of acts about that could do Other Stage at this point but yeah, something to think about, that.

Surely an Alt-J/Foos clash is better than Radiohead or Ed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tommy101 Posted January 22, 2017 Report Share Posted January 22, 2017 I know they're not considered in high regard here but I'd be more than happy watching AltJ close the fest. If there is something better for me elsewhere then I wont be upset about missing them mind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eFestivals Posted January 30, 2017 Report Share Posted January 30, 2017 I've had someone email me, claiming to know that Green Day will headline the Other Stage at the same time Ed Sheerhan plays the Pyramid. If that's correct, then it looks like Ed must be on Sunday, as that's the only date Green Day have free. Looking at Green Day's dates, it certainly looks like there might be something to what this guy has said. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I might be wrong but didn't that claim Foos were definitely Sunday Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They could feasibly both fit if alt-J did the dash back and forth from Germany to headline Saturday (it's happened before, Tom Odell this year) an Green Day rounded off the weekend but I guess we're approaching an announcement of one of these Pyramid headliners so that should clear things up.

jparx Posted January 30, 2017 Report Share Posted January 30, 2017 (edited) Blimey - that's a corker if true. Can't say I'm their biggest fan, but it would be cool to hear some of their older tunes live. I'm sure Ed will get a massive crowd either way, but I imagine Green Day will divide the numbers a bit. I can imagine there being a decent bit of crossover there (certainly more than the NIN dream). Edited January 30, 2017 by jparx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
