Flaming lips

[When Jokers Attack]

Will be gutted if they clash with Radiohead.

If no one's pointed out out yet, there's a Glastonbury event on the Flips Facebook page that lists its time as Friday 8-10pm. To me that says Other sub.

Gives me a horrible feeling that a clash with The National is possible.

Actually wait, is there sometimes a crossover with other sub and pyramid headline?

Usually a 30 minute gap between the 2. Really hoping The xx are subbing Radiohead now.

Excellent, that should give me enough time to elbow my way past some nerdy chin strokers to get a good spot  

Don't care about either the xx or the national so I'm not fussed either way, though I guess the xx makes more sense

Yes!!!!!!

Means getting to Radiohead late, but so be it

[russycarps]

How long do other subs usually get?

[CaledonianGonzo]

Bodes well, but I dunno if I'd wanna sell the farm based on a Facebook event with a pretty generic gig time.

An hour. PJ got an hour and 15 last year.

Goddamm this is a rollercoaster. Couldn't 8-10 mean pyramid sub though?

Even though that feels unlikely on the Friday. Sunday, yes.

Hope they bring Georgia with em, she's brilliant.

but potential Clash with justice/the national/the xx.. lol

[balti-pie]

That's pretty much fine with me if it's how it happens - see the flaming lips, bliss out a bit, collect my thoughts and wander to the pyramid stage with a nice fresh pint and stand up the hill for some Radiohead. With the greatest of respect to this incarnation of Radiohead (and I'll prepare to annoy many people by saying this) but they're not quite as engaging as their 1997 version are they? 

Theyre certainly nowhere near as engaging as the flaming lips, that's for sure!

Flips on the Other then over to Chic on WH seems like a splendid Friday evening.

[Justiceforcedave]

The Flaming Lips>Radiohead>The National.

Two outta three ain't bad.

Im guessing they have been told a generic time slot. Their other festival gig events have varying times. 1 hour 30 / 3 hours / 4 hours. 

If they have to play friday, other sub will do me. Its a quick leg it around before Radiohead. No chance of getting where I want to for them, but it will do me.

I hope the Chic info is wrong. Perfect sunday night for me.

[CaledonianGonzo]

As it stands at the minute I'd take either.  Got a ticket for Radiohead 2 weeks after the G and I'm not such a setlist spotter that I'd need to see them twice.

[kingbadger]

The Chic Friday only info is wrong, the only Chic date listed anywhere is their Glasgow date at start of June. No info on Fold Festival taking place this year, no dates announced yet whatsoever so can't see it happening in 3 months time. 

I like the idea of Other Sub. I tortured myself last night by rewatching the Race For The Prize opening from Brixton and edged towards #TeamWayne. It'd make sense for them to sub Other, with Royal Blood taking the 3rd down Pyramid 'heavy' slot. 

I reckon Justice will be on WH rather than Chic, would be crap to miss them but I'd much rather see Chic, and I reckon they're set for a Pyramid slot similar to the one Madness took last year, or following #RightBazza

same. I've seen The xx twice, I wouldn't mind skipping them for the Lips but I will in no way not see The National

Yes please, let's party like it's 2003, perfect scenario.

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?

Who? What?

[FloorFiller]

Flaming Lips subbing Major Lazer on the Other would be weird although I guess there have been stranger sub>headliner combos.
