scaryclaireyfairy Posted March 30, 2017 Report Share Posted March 30, 2017 So my best hope really is that The Lips sub whoever subs Radiohead? I'd bite your hand off for that over the likely clash but damn it all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Headlined other last time but seemed to have dropped in appeal since. I also think you need more mainstream appeal to sub the Pyramid successfully. You can get away with a smaller, more dedicated crowd at the Other (see LCD last year) but you can't avoid the casuals at the Pyramid.

I tend to agree, but there's always the Nick cave 2013 set that gives hope... That being said, I think I'd rather see them headlining a stage, and if that means sacrificing radiohead so be it.

The person has now admitted to reading it wrong on the Chic website I think. Chic vs Radiohead is my ultimate worst clash out of the released acts. Flaming Lips to headline the JP on either the Friday or Saturday, maybe Other headliner sub? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tevaburger Posted March 30, 2017 Report Share Posted March 30, 2017 9 hours ago, The Nal said: Friday night would be perfect. And looks likely. Other Stage or JP preferably. They should just have The XX, The National and Radiohead play a sad old bastards evening on the Pyramid and let everyone else have fun. that's my Friday sorted then! speaking of 'Sad Captains' tell us about your recent pint w/ a Glastonbury veteran...will we be seeing them earlier on Friday?

tullux Posted March 30, 2017 Report Share Posted March 30, 2017 (edited) have seen them in utrecht the third time and i am so looking forward to see them at glasto. unfortunaly they do not have the stagedancers anymore Edited March 30, 2017 by tullux Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FloorFiller Posted March 30, 2017 Report Share Posted March 30, 2017 Well there goes my 'they won't go up against Radiohead' theory, unless they're a couple down Other (although with Major Lazer seemingly headlining that day it'd be odd for Flaming Lips to be on a couple before and I'm kind of expecting it to be pretty pop like it has been the last couple of years - all speculation though). Definitely expecting them to headline JP which seems silly, but ah well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dentalplan Posted March 30, 2017 Report Share Posted March 30, 2017 (edited) Still plenty of other acts that can fill a Park or John Peel headline slot that night. I think Future Islands will be John Peel headliner unless they're middle of the Pyramid run - not impossible. And for the Park, Ride look like they might be a headliner and First Aid Kit have confirmed they're playing Friday as well. And Bonobo has to fit in somewhere on Friday too. Of course if they're evening on Other then that opens them up to clashing with Radiohead's subs and if that's someone good (read: The National) then gonna miss them there too.

CaledonianGonzo Posted March 30, 2017 Report Share Posted March 30, 2017 At this point is yer growly fish bloke from Future Islands not just consolidating his position as a one hit wonder / bygone meme. Subbed Sparks and Goldfrapp Friday just gone. First Aid Kit also way more sizable than any of the other likely Park headliners. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Idk Future Islands doing a pretty well-to-do slot last time around and now headlining Green Man this year makes me think they'd get a decent slot. Disagree on First Aid Kit. When they're doing Wilderness Festival and Belladrum Tartan Heart(!) and not headlining one nor t'other then they're not above a set on the Park Stage. Maybe they dropped off in the interim between now and their last tour. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaledonianGonzo Posted March 30, 2017 Report Share Posted March 30, 2017 Maybe. Dunno. Judging by tickets sold in Edinburgh FAK packed the Usher Hall, whereas Ride's comeback show was moved down to somewhere about a third of the size of that and they still didn't sell it out.

FuzzyDunlop Posted March 30, 2017 Report Share Posted March 30, 2017 (edited) Im absolutely gutted they are probably up against Radiohead. I wanted to see 1 more pyramid headliner. I only have 2 must 100% see acts.... first world problems on a grand scale here. Why didnt I get a Radiohead ticket for mamchester?!

ShakeyCrash Posted March 30, 2017 Report Share Posted March 30, 2017 I have 4 must see acts; Radiohead, Flaming Lips, Chic and First Aid Kit. This could be the mother of all clashes, or the best day at the Pyramid known to man. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
