A Star Is Born was surprisingly very good and is already gaining momentum for the Oscars. Would be interesting to see if Gaga is booked on the back of that. Having an oscar nominee or even winner (such as . Adele) play the festival would be good for both sides surely. Plus 1 scene was filmed there in 17 so would be full circle. 

Cooper was on Graham Norton saying he goes to Glastonbury every year too

I can already see him coming on for Shallow and it bringing the house down.

Yeah but it's probably better for her to be the star of a widely admired film with a modest soundtrack rather than be the star of a lousy film with a soundtrack that's flying off the shelves.

V true. Thank goodness there was no festival in 2018 for Hugh Jackman to play.

Not so sure about that. Stormzy played the Other last year and is being touted as a potential future headliner.  You'll search the 2008 list in vain for anyone who even comes within sniffing distance.

Get Joe Lean and the Jing Jang Jong back for 2019.

Most of the band are playing the Crow's Nest every year as Toy.

Yeah he's being hyped as a future headliner the year after he last played. Would none of those have been seen in a similar light? And will we look back fondly at Stormzy in 2028?

I'm so out of the mainstream these days as regards to media, so has there been much hype about tickets this year?  Are we expecting it to be overly difficult to get tickets this year. I'm saying this because the only year I failed was back in 2005

Heard from someone who knows someone who knows someone that Mumfords are signed up.

About as solid as blancmange but I could imagine it.

I’d be somewhere else!

I could imagine them doing a secret set somewhere like Elbow and The Killers last year, but don't see them headlining at all.

Be about the same as usual I should think. The 2017 headliners were so massive that there should in theory be more people trying, but the fallow year should hopefully negate that a bit.

No surely not headliners. That new song couldn't have flopped harder. Could see them potentially headlining the Other against Macca if the latter happens though.

Don't reckon they'll be taking lower slots just yet. Surely a perfect headliner for Rize Festival or something.

    • Well mayors have more powers to do that sh*t...but they have to make the numbers add up.
    • We'll see. Bristol and Leeds are both massively overdue big public transport investment - 2 of the cities with the worst transport infrastructure per capita in Western Europe. If this works to help support investment projects great and fair play to Burnham.
    • The Bródy Day was his idea because Sziget has always been late when it comes to this kind of concert. They would only organize farewell performances or tribute shows after an artist had passed away. Since Bródy is one of the country's greatest singer-songwriters, they wanted to honor him while he is still alive. (He didn't say it exactly like that, but the man is 80 and has just stopped playing large concerts.) He never understood why anyone would focus exclusively on one generation, especially Gen Z, who have less disposable income, drink less, and are, in his words, "afraid of partying." He explained that in the past, people loved festivals because of the nonstop partying, whereas many younger people today find that experience overwhelming or exhausting. That's one of the reasons why Sziget will introduce more chill zones and sensory-friendly spaces. They also want to attract older generations, who are generally more willing and able to spend money. The Sziget Icons days are aimed at this audience, and in the future they hope to create a more balanced lineup that appeals to people over 35 as well.   It was a long interview. If anything else comes to mind, I'll share it.
