The Pyramid headliners should be right. You might be a bit disappointed by the rest of the lineup.

Thankfully Beady Eye isn't a thing any more hun. And I'd almost forgotten Jessie J existed tbh

Sam Smith and then Ed would have me running for the hills, without stopping at T'Other Stage.

[Rose-Colored Boy]

Yeah that Saturday Pyramid is horrendously mainstream, and this is coming from someone who has time for five of them

[Guest]

Imagine a world where Nicki Minaj, Beady Eye and Stereophonics were the Other headliners. Did that come to you in a dream after you'd been hitting the Christmas cheese board?

This is more of a V Festival line up I'm afraid although you might see a few pop up at Glastonbury

Sunday night this year, I could have taken any headliner. that was a hard decision (I went for Coldplay in the end and don't regret it at all tbh).

In fairness, out of that lot there are only a handful that haven't played the farm, and then out of that minority at least two (Sande and Lorde) will quite possibly break their duck next year. It's just the bunching of them all together in one go that makes it look unlikely ...

There's no cheese in the world that can explain this away

I know, but bunched together like that it is resembling a different festival

Radiohead, The Specials, Foo Fighters works for me!

[SwedgeAntilles]

Oooft, a Justice vs The xx vs Avalanches clash would be a whole heap of bullshit. Would most likely pluck for the Avalanches to scratch my Park headliner itch but would be a real wrench missing the other two. 

What most worries me is that your Sunday screams out the standard 'one day with not that much on I'm bothered with' staple which seems almost a certainty based on previous years. 

My headliners subs would probably be:

Radiohead/Bon Iver 

Avalanches/Royal Blood 

Flaming Lips/Future Islands

That Sunday of Diana Ross > London Grammar > Future Islands > Kraftwerk would require soooo much walking

Not thinking that Elbow seem nailed on with that Irish (I think) date on the Wednesday?

To be honest I can't see any of Elbow, Royal Blood, The xx or Gaga not subbing at this stage so I guess one has to give.

That Saturday park stage run is fantastic. Friday pyramid, Sunday JP not bad either.

 

i need a ticket

[Untz]

Agreed on the Sunday trekking.

That awful Future Islands > Kraftwerk walk/run/flail almost made me forget about the dreadful Bonobo placement. Almost.

Oh shit, forgot about them. Just so god damn easy to forget. They're probably more likely to end up subbing than any of those other three really so yeah I've stuffed up here. Ah well.

Choose Royksopp and tell your ears and feet that they're welcome.

I think Bonobo is getting too big now to do much else. Could still squeeze into a John Peel headliner slot but the direction his music is going in could probably work quite well on big outdoor stages.

I'm leaning towards agreeing with you. Gaga, Nutini and The XX is enough to persuade me away from it as I see all there and none of them as Other headliners. Chuck The Weeknd as an option in there too.

 Biffy will be 1! Still can't see any reason why they aren't an exclusive at Download if they aren't playing Glastonbury. (Not playing IOW or R&L)
