Surely Friday Pyramid or a WH headliner. Been struggling badly for a Friday Pyramid hip-hop act so aye. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingcrawler Posted January 31, 2017 Report Share Posted January 31, 2017 I remember someone posted a while ago saying that they'd heard the Pyramid headliners were Radiohead, Foo Fighters and A Tribe Called Quest. At the time we all just assumed there'd been a mix up and they meant West Holts headliners but maybe they are just playing late afternoon/early evening Pyramid.

Winslow Leach Posted January 31, 2017 Report Share Posted January 31, 2017 Unpopular opinion on these boards but I'd much rather Tribe do Pyramid than headline WH. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ConorC Posted January 31, 2017 Report Share Posted January 31, 2017 Would take Tribe anywhere I can get them tbh. I do think they're more likely for Pyramid though, WH seems a bit heavy on potential headliners atm. Anyone listen to Jorja Smith? I like her a lot, potential early WH slot? Or park?

BlackHole2006 Posted January 31, 2017 Report Share Posted January 31, 2017 Tribe would be a pretty good alternative to Radiohead. Really feeling a Tribe, Jamirouqai and Jacksons trio right about now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I got Radiohead Tribe Flaming Lips As my headliners, Id take that. I think Tribe would clash with another headliner I want to see.... so Id be happy with them on the Pyramid. Could they sub?

BlackHole2006 Posted January 31, 2017 Report Share Posted January 31, 2017 Gotta admit the West Holts headline predictions are looking far more appealing to me these days Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaledonianGonzo Posted January 31, 2017 Report Share Posted January 31, 2017 If the chips fall the right way then I could finish up there three nights out of three.......but all my eggs are in one basket and its worrying me a wee bit.

I could have had all 3 nights there too looking at predictions, but Radiohead are a must for me. The Flaming Lips too (if they play). The John Peel is the last major stage Ive never seen a headliner at, so Im hoping for the Flaming Lips to be there. I wouldn't be adverse to a WH headliner at all. Underworld were top last year. Big crowd who were all up for it too. Edited January 31, 2017 by FuzzyDunlop Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maarrkk Posted February 1, 2017 Report Share Posted February 1, 2017 Chaka Khan is in the the USA at Saratoga jazz festival on Saturday of Glastonbury, very unlikely she'll be able to do Friday on that basis hoping she (and ATCQ) announces more dates as don't fancy wildlife or parklife if I can avoid them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doubt ATCQ will headline West Holts. And Jacksons would be a just cos there's nowt else on for me. Circus field, or the SE Corner. Don't have to see a headliner. Myself and Wooderson sat in Williams Green drinking during Muse last year. 2nd Muse headliner slot we've done that for. A tradition now.

JoeyT Posted February 1, 2017 Report Share Posted February 1, 2017 Right Toots & The Maytals.

But not massive if not. 2015 Saturday and Sunday, Sunday last year I haven't. Would be better not to have 3 non-headliner days though. Yeah would be nice to have 1. I've zero at the moment.

CaledonianGonzo Posted February 1, 2017 Report Share Posted February 1, 2017 I'd always rather go and see something than just sit in a bar. If nothing at all appeals on the larger stages then whatever's on in The Blues or The Gully would probably be worth a goosey. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cornelius_Fudge Posted February 2, 2017 Report Share Posted February 2, 2017 (edited) A Tribe Called Quest on the Pyramid Friday hip-hop slot? Or is that too early in the day? Wu Tang Clan and De La Soul were both awesome in that slot 2011 and 2014 respectively Edit. Also Snoop Dogg thinking about it now. Perfect for ATCQ Edited February 2, 2017 by Cornelius_Fudge Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
your mother Posted February 7, 2017 Report Share Posted February 7, 2017 Posted this in the electronica/dance thread but some that could be great for west holts Can't remember when Grace Jones last played? Maybe more of a pyramid act but shuggie otis(!!!) floating points live solo, ata kak, Moses Boyd could be good for the west holts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
your mother Posted February 7, 2017 Report Share Posted February 7, 2017 Shuggie Otis is playing the U.K. At the end of May so I guess may not stick around. I had no idea he still played live Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
