Catching up. So if Pink headlines RW, that means someone on another forum who predicted that correctly could also be right in predicting King Kendrick for Glasto, amirite? 

He’s predicting him for RW which put him firmly in the frame for Glastonbury as they have moved the festival for an act. 

 

Which is is what they did before for someone playing both festivals I think.

Hmm. Well they’ve got Mumford & Sons headlining on Saturday which would put Kendrick in play on either Friday or Sunday. 

It’s hard to imagine Macca playing anything but the Sunday, which would place Kendrick on Friday for Glasto. 

So we’d be looking at:

Kendrick Lamar / The Cure / Paul McCartney

That would be a strong line up (although I’d be elsewhere on Saturday night).

Saturday is a great night to find something else to do. 

I would be stoked if we ended up with this.

So why were Kung Fu's summer shows so bad?  Too short and he phoned them in?

I did feel a bit short changed with the set length, aye. It was Bellahouston I was at, folk I was there were saw him at the Hydro previously and he was much better in that setting.

I'm a big fan and on paper it's a great booking but I would be concerned about the Kung Fu King's ability to pull off a headline slot and all that's required to go with it.

So RW will be:

Fri - Cure / Sat - Mumford / Sun - Kendrick

Glastonbury:

Fri - Kendrick / Sat - Cure / Sun - Macca (I can’t see Macca doing Sat night)

Or Cure don’t play at all and Kendrick moves to Sat with 1975 on Friday? 

just putting it out there that The Cure, Pink, Mumford and Kendrick would look very weak. not very rock for werchter if you like

I'd be happy with that.

I'd be at the Pyramid on Sunday. Maybe Friday (probably not though). Saturday I'd definitely be elsewhere.

Haven't the foggiest about Kendrick, so frees Fri night up for me, apart from muse 2016 I seem to always look elsewhere on a Fri.

Another thing I’ve started thinking about Macca is that the Arroyo Seco weekend is probably due to be Glasto weekend, which is kind of an oldies’ fest in Pasadena run booked by the guy who books Coachella and one-time Desert Trip. It might not be Glastonbury weekend but I think there’s a strong likelihood of Macca there bc of the Phoenix date.

That actually makes a lot of sense looking at his dates and last years lineup. Probably more sense for him to have a couple of days off and play in California than fly over for Glastonbury.

I’m with you on this.

Great overnight developments after yesterday’s 10 page AM take down. Excellent sleuthing by @Gucci Piggy on the RW thread

    • Ann and Nancy Wilson are planning a final world tour for HEART starting next year. They were never at Glastonbury. They should do it. 
    • sub yes I could see but I don't think they get 1hr 15, a headliner starting at 18:15 though is unlikely. Even the recent co-headlines that have had like 1hr 15 then a 1hr 30 after were on 8pm or just before, you are trailing behind more than 1.5 hours then. In that scenario some 3rd down bands are only starting at 18:15 and some haven't lol. I agree they won't not book them due to this but it won't be 6 headliners. It would be 5 headliners and you wouldn't want to see 5 headliners booked but Biffy were to not be thouhgt of as an option for one. Wolf Alice on the other hand could sub no bother and you'd think nothing of it. I'm not so sure Biffy would get headline though after the festival choice in Kendal this year.
    • Definitely. UKIP also used Merkel welcoming 1 million Afgans to Europe in 2015 during the brexit vote.   Politicians in other countries within the EU know the are going to lose voters to parties to the right of them over stuff like this and they've no control over it.
    • I think it will very much vary on who there is to book who they know will sell out a day.    They’ve co-headline and full headline stuff in future, there no reason at all they won’t do it again, even if it means cutting someone’s set by 15 mins or having a band less in a big bands day…   They’re not going to not book Foo fighters and instead get the equivalent of Florence and C&S just to not have a band do a big set…   …unless of course they think it will make them more money…
