Stage Predictions 2017

[Guy Incognito]

I know that there is this 'hip hop slot'' on the pyramid but I really hope A Tribe Called Quest aren't doing it, would be such a waste. Give them a WH headline slot and I'd be much happier.

It wasn't three years ago!

Serious now...

 

[Memory Man]

fair enough although that was the year jake bugg headlined over the pixies so fuck knows what they were thinking that year!!  Manics headline arenas and occasionally stadiums/festivals of their own so it feels a bit low in my head! hard to say if they have gotten bigger in three years or not, perhaps not. I see them more as a pyramid act if they were going to be there this year. they're probably bigger today than jake bugg is?

bonobo wont headline the park i don't think, too big for it? more likely west holts.

It's late, so I'll make my full predictions later, but I predict the Brian Jonestown Massacre, Neil Diamond, and !!! will be in there somewhere.

Flaming Lips Vs The Jacksons would be a killer. 

Would be a good fight though, Jermaine vs that giant dolphin being the highlight.

Cba to post a full one rn but a Friday Pyramid evening of A Tribe Called Quest > Iggy Pop > The xx > Radiohead? Can't have been many in the past that'd beat that, can there?

That's the dream right there. ATCQ would be far better suited to headlining WH (or elsewhere) but for the sake of avoiding clashes, this would be perfect. Ain't gonna happen though, although I think 3 out of those 4 (maybe even in that order) could hopefully be a goer.

Only the top 2 or 3 of the major stages...

Probably a shit prediction:

Fri

Pyramid - Radiohead, The XX, A tribe called Quest, James Bay
Other - Alt J, Imagine Dragons, Liam Gallagher
WH - Jamiraquai, St Germain, Michael Kiwanuka
The Park - Father John Misty, Warpaint, Jagwar Ma.
JP - Justice, Pulled Apart By Horses

Saturday

Pyramid - Foo Fighters, Noel Gallagher, Barry Gibb, Dua Lipa
Other - Pendulum, Iggy Pop, Manic Street Preachers
WH - Bjork, The Specials, Omar Souleyman
The Park - Bonobo, Mac DeMarco,
JP - Interpol, Grizzly Bear, Slaves, King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizzard

Sunday

Pyramid - Ed Sheeran, Lady Gaga Lorde, Diana Ross
Other -  Green Day, You me at 6, Richard Ashcroft, 
WH - The Jacksons, Avalanches, Erasure
The Park - The Maccabees, Moderat
JP - The Flaming Lips, Circa Waves, 

I like this. Though I'd say Specials too low, LG/Iggy too low & Erasure/NG/Interpol unlikely. Sunday night would be a real tricky headliner choice

Interpol headlining Park on this tour is the stuff of dreams though

As dental has said they've done it in the past so are about that level, though IF they play this year John Peel headliners would probably be where I'd place them

No Flaming Lips?

Not happy with that.

[Ovechkin]

there is no way Noel is gonna sub Radiohead lol. Doubt that even Liam and Noel will be at the same festival. Rather have Liam, at least we won't know what we'll get from him

Neil Diamond has a break in his US tour  - he plays NY on 22/06 and his next one is 14/07. So it's possible but unlikely.

I know but we shouldn't say it. It's like how we know Nal will be right about the weather but we don't want to admit it.

Why not? I've got that run down on my prediction. Think ATCQ must be very likely for Friday Pyramid.

Dear God! There is just a slight hint that you could change your prediction to what I want/Primavera! Haha

Don't think it'll happen as I'm a pessimist and that run is far far too good. A boy can dream though hence why I included it in my prediction. I wouldn't even care about all the heartbreaking clashes if those four acts were on one after the other.
