2017

[Rose-Colored Boy]

Coldplay in the US throughout August so that's the end of that non-starter of an idea

Bruno Mars' new song is the worst thing he's ever done.. so his chances are probably increased given that putting out the worst material of their careers apparently merited Kasabian and Rihanna being booked in the last couple of years

I want Eminem back to be fair

I'd def gpo watch him again.  Unless he announces some other summer dates in the UK or Europe I cant see him coming back.

I'm going to take guess....... Gaga and Sheeran for the main stage with Murrs and Phonics on the 2nd stage and Robbie Williams as my outsider.

@eFestivals have you heard anything at all? Nothing on the Rumors pages so guessing not?  Any feelings on it?

i've heard nothing, and it's probably the case that the more it moves away from 'traditional' festival acts the less likely I am to hear stuff, just because ears are more tuned in those directions.

But you never know, I hear what I hear, sometimes it comes and sometimes it doesn't. I've got no control over that.

I'd say Bruno is very likely

My guess would be Bruno and probably Kings of Leon

yeah Bruno and KOL/The Killers is what i'd go for

[willutalk]

Lady Gaga? Would get me tempted to venture into the very 'un-willutalk' grounds of V Festival.

Hi guys,

I was wondering if you could spend a few minutes of your time on a survey about Festival experiences, which will be so useful to me, as it is my first time going to a festival. The link is:

Thanks!

Link doesn't work for me but am happy to answer any questions on here?

Why?  He's not playing anywhere on the 19 or 20th?  Admittedly he'll be in the states so its a long shot

Assuming he got off stage at 5am, he'd have about 16 hours to get to the airport, catch an eight hour flight, get to either Essex or Staffordshire, be over the flight, warm up and get on stage having not soundchecked at a festival he's never heard of. Technically it may be possible but realistically it is not gonna happen

[FloorFiller]

thought he was one of the more likely big pop headliners for next year so surprised he's not gonna be there

[Rose-Colored Boy]

Maybe they've gone back to the old pop headliner/rock headliner combo. I'd be surprised if it wasn't Ed Sheeran and KOL/Killers as things stand

But technically could happen  

Yeah I agree it wont.  Ed I think is a good bet.  Still think they'll stick with very main stream pop.  Robbie or Take That could be an outside bet.  Gaga or Kate Perry (if she has a new album out?).  Olly Murrs headlining the 2nd stage at some stage with a DJ on the second night.

[Gucci Piggy]

Drake? Or do his 5 billion arena shows make him unlikely?

Could see it being Gaga if she isn't playing Glasto (still not sure if I can see her taking a sub slot there).

Reckon Sheeran will do Glasto only.

KOL or The Killers obviously likely candidates if they don't stick with the two outright pop headliners.

Coldplay?

[Rose-Colored Boy]

Drake is a decent shout. Coldplay in Ohio on the Saturday. Not impossible they'll just totally give up pretending to give a fuck and get Calvin Harris back again I suppose.

[Gozpot]

Going with Drake and Calvin Harris myself.

Sure Bruno was on main stage in 2011?

[NickisGinger]

I thought KOL were exclusive to BST, so they're out the running??

Yeah but that appearance wasn't within hours of a show in Chicago

[Rose-Colored Boy]

Wasn't expecting them to be about next summer but Mumford and Sons are at Lowlands on V weekend

[NickisGinger]

maybe Ed Sheeran, Drake, The 1975, George Ezra or The Killers..lol
