Gnomicide Posted January 16, 2017 Author Report Share Posted January 16, 2017 Last year Guy played: Dalby Forrest - Friday Sherwood Forrest - Saturday Glastonbury - Sunday So no reason why they wouldn't do it, just means it will have to be the Friday.

thewayiam Posted January 16, 2017 Report Share Posted January 16, 2017 Just now, JoeyT said: I'll have a wager with you that they are there... No you won't, I'm not staking any money on them. If they are I don't see it being as sub, they just aren't that level now and aren't the band to get people up dancing that have taken that slot. Maybe a Other sub slot, it won't be JP headliner now.

Fingerbobs Posted January 16, 2017 Report Share Posted January 16, 2017 (edited) Can't see three in a row being a problem for them really as they're fit young lads so fully expect to see them at the fest. It's Elbow I'm talking about by the way. Edited January 16, 2017 by Fingerbobs Important clarification of act Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingcrawler Posted January 16, 2017 Report Share Posted January 16, 2017 I was thinking Elbow could maybe be a JP headliner if they're dropping down the lineups, although I feel like they wouldn't clash them and Radiohead for some reason.

jparx Posted January 16, 2017 Report Share Posted January 16, 2017 Elbow would be one of the lamest options for Radiohead sub. I'm massively out of the loop - how likely is it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mjsell Posted January 16, 2017 Report Share Posted January 16, 2017 (edited) I think Elbow could play 3rd down. But with only the Friday as an option and people thinking The XX seem to be favourites for Radiohead sub I really cant see it. For some that would be the dullest top 3 ever. No chance they headline other? Edit: Just realised they can only play Friday so there is definitely no chance of playing Other up against RH.

Djb.com Posted January 16, 2017 Report Share Posted January 16, 2017 I can see Elbow subbing radiohead, might be that The XX go as other stage headliners against Foos maybe? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwedgeAntilles Posted January 16, 2017 Report Share Posted January 16, 2017 The xx have to be a sub. Only other possibility is headlining the Other again and given the popularity of Jamie's solo album plus the anticipation of I See You I can't see them treading water. I wouldn't be surprised if the festival view them as a potential future headliner so a move to the Pyramid this year seems like the most likely trajectory. Subbing Radiohead seems like the most likely option although I suppose they could sub Ed at a push. Either way it feels like these dates have made it less likely Elbow will play. Could they maybe open the Other? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't see that now. Now I've heard their new album I'm more set on them subbing pyramid. It definitely seems it is far more unlikely Elbow aren't playing at all now. Which I'm seeing as a good thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or maybe they will be happy to play 3rd down on the Pyramid. Most don't. But, on average, one or two each year end up playing Glasto.
