Just wondering: does anyone think Garth Brooks could be a potential headliner?

On the basis of him wearing his silly trouser harness and swinging over the crowd while waving his cowboy hat in homage to the end of Dr Strangelove, absolutely.

Beyond stupid mental images that make me laugh and get me through the day, no.

I reckon Glasto will be held back for a long time, so that it has minimum effect on sales for all of the other shows (not just in the UK).

I wouldn't be too surprised if they're not announced until April.

The Cure have been announced to play Glasgow Sessions in August which pretty much rules them out for TRNSMIT (if they weren't already).

The fact it's GSS and not TRNSMT tells you a lot about what they reckon they can sell.

Wouldn’t you have thought the fact people have missed on Glasto would help ticket sales, don’t see why it should hold it back. They are selling it on the last time they headlined was ages ago so I’d doubt it would matter too much.

Wouldn't be surprised if it is down to creative control. GSS seems to have let Smith pick some of the bands, much like BST did. I'm sure it is no coincidence that the other two announced bands are former Cure support bands and are both Scottish. Not sure TRNSMT would allow give up that control.

I don’t get you jj, through being on the threads surely you pick up something but most posts have no common sense. The Cure aren’t going to appeal to people who to RandL and you don’t seem to use information we get to use yourself. You don’t pick up anything that is said.

Please use the replies you get to absorb information and at least say things that could be realistic.

If they headline I apologise and will give you a tenner.

    • Based on previous times that rules quite a lot out of early summer festivals into the August runs.
    • No dramas man, I just like to follow others journeys as well. Get the inspiration, give out inspiration and the outdoors is the clear the head place to do it. I'm heading out for a easy trail run today I think, 10k- 10 mile we'll see how we go. I've got a half marathon in October I'm well unprepared for hahs
    • The Cheap Thrills at Mountford Hall, Liverpool.    They've been around for a while and have built up a large local following. Last night was their biggest yet, at a sold out 2,200 capacity venue.    It was a big old joyous, indie singalong from start to finish, the band clearly having the time of their lives. The debut album is out next month and they seem to be going down well on the festival circuit, maybe their time has finally come.   2 supports, I unfortunately missed Credits but the few songs they have on Spotify sound good, Americana vibes. The other was M60, reportedly Gary Neville's favourite band. If that's true, he's as clueless about music as he is football. To be fair, their sound was poor, maybe with a clearer sound they'd have been better but it was pretty dull.  
    • I can see them all merging along with the Tory’s . Restore curently couldn’t muster enough candidates to be a viable option . I lasted 4 mins and couldn’t watch any more . Lowe is just dull along with racist
