Didn't say they would.

If Arctics play 2020 it'll be 3 summer's in a row....there is no chance. If they bring another album out then it turns into 4 years into a row and them kill it like KOL did.

So in the frame:

Macca, Fleetwood, The Cure, Lady Gaga, anyone else?

Do people honestly think that Glastonbury will have 3 headliners none of whom are a 'current' act commercially active, and 'popularly' relevant - just not going to happen in my view - a fallow year and then Glastonbury reinvents itself as a heritage festival??

Gaga was brilliant last time there's is no questioning that. I have never seen The Cure so I am excitedly by that possibility. However Paul McCartney was dreadful last time - the only time in 18 Glastonburys that I left a headline act on any stage to go and sit in a bar! I've avoided the Arctic Monkeys on the two previous occasions but in the absence of a Taylor swift or Kendrick then surely they must be the popular meat in the icon sandwich?

But the biggest AM itk has been told they're not playing. That's why we're discussing other options.

Proof (if needed) that headliner odds are meaningless.

Gaga is now 11/4 from 7/1 after our recent bets

And you thought the employers at sky know who is headlining Glasto.....but in truth....11/4 is nothing even close to a sure thing so get some more money on, bring the odds even lower and convince yourself lol.

I’d say you were in the minority on McCartney. His set was received very positively by and large, it’s held in very high regard on here.

Personally I loved it.

I think you've missed the point.

The AM news is exciting as it removes the most likely “balance of probabilities” option.

Third headliner is well and truly up for grabs now.

What have I missed? Apart from tickets..

    • Pretty sure at the stage we can expect the charge for Man City will be a 10 point deduction for..... Everton     
    • Ah those were the days....! When you could go to the festival and nearly drown.
    • It's only the last few years that the festival have started calling it the Legend Slot.  For most of its existence it's been the Teatime Slot, with the idea it was the sort of music that Jean Eavis liked to listen to whilst having tea on a Sunday afternoon i.e. MOR, Radio 2, borderline easy listening sort of music.  Hence bookings like Shirley Bassey, Neil Diamond, Tom Jones, etc.  There's mibbe some overlap there with classic radio rock and of course the boundaries are all pretty fuzzy now, but it's generally not a rock slot.
    • I've never had any issues. Remember watching some Tour De France stages on phones in the past. Maybe at the festival sight it could be a problem, but I think people are spread out enough on camping.    Maybe it will be different this year with only teenage girls coming to see The Cure, David Byrne and Napalm Death 😅 
    • They'll surely put AdP on Woods. They are aware of the off the scale level of hype.
