Think they'd pull a lot of old school rock and metal fans in, in the way perhaps BMTH and the divisive Oliver Sykes couldn't to a degree. Pyramid: Ed Sheeran, Lady Gaga Other: Deftones, Weezer Aye, that'll sort it. Oh man, Deftones on the Other would be bang on for a Saturday night. So good at Download but would love to see them at night on that stage. Yes they can be a bit shouty but they also do amazing atmospherics and almost trippy beats and vocals. Going to that while Sheeran (all power to the lad) does his thing on Pyramid would be fucking ace Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dare is a bit of masterpiece, and I'd reckon Oakey and the lads probably deserve a decent wee slot somewhere, like subbing West Holts or something. Provided they don't hog Erasure's rightful place.

Hopefully they opt for Glastonbury as something different from their usual schedule (and hopefully the Eavii are aware of them). Deftones, Weezer and Jimmy Eat World plz.

Be great to see them.

Dare is one of those dream albums - and speaking of dreams, I pictured ABC subbing West Holts on the Sunday night with an orchestra to do The Lexicon of Love in full, as they have toured. Probably a stretch, but think it would go down great with people of a certain age, particularly if the remaining headliners are Ed and FF. God, if Erasure are they, I'll probably burst from excitement. Erasure to sub Radiohead for me! #Erasure4Glasto (And stick The Human League on, maybe in that Saturday afternoon slot Madness had on the Pyramid). 48 minutes ago, jparx said: Well if they are doing a UK festival this summer it'll be either Glastonbury or R+L.

I reckon Jimmy Eat World is a pretty good shout - can see a strong Other Stage slot, or even a Pyramid slot on the Friday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As said, heritage tea time slot now at best. The Who played the Liberty Stadium the same year that they headlined Glastonbury in 2007, so you never know. But then again JLS and Rod Stewart have played there so hopefully Take That will be no where near a headline slot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DownboundTrain52 Posted October 25, 2016 Report Share Posted October 25, 2016 Well, one artist we can rule out is Springsteen... with the E Street Band. Steve van Zandt has confirmed - on TalkSport of all places - that the outfit will finish touring for 2017 with their clutch of dates in Australia and New Zealand. The phrasing makes me feel that Springsteen himself is about to emerge, either for a solo tour or an Other Band Tour, similar to 92/93. He'll be far, far off Glastonbury radars without the E Street Band behind him though - unless his new backing group is an obscene supergroup of some kind.

Trout Mask Replica Posted October 25, 2016 Report Share Posted October 25, 2016 Guilty secrets time. I'm partial to Level42 and always admired Mark King as a bass player. If they showed up somewhere I'd probably be more inclined to watch that than some laptop DJ set. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zed619 Posted October 26, 2016 Report Share Posted October 26, 2016 I pretty much ruled out Nick Cave because I thought he wouldn't tour his new album... but he's just announced a run of shows in Aus/NZ in January... http://www.nickcave.com/live/ Makes him a fairly decent bet for Glasto I'd imagine.
