2019 Headliners

I wouldn’t say that many on that list are surprising omissions though. The likes of Blondie, Dylan and Cohen obviously have played, but not as headliners. Cohen wasn’t a frequent tourer for much of the 80’s/90’s/00’s too. Led Zeppelin were far too big for Glastonbury when they were a going concern. Apart from her pre-fame pub gigs, Kate Bush has only played live in 1979 and 2014. I can’t see her doing Glastonbury ever. Fleetwood Mac and The Strokes are the two that you might have realistically expected to headline, but it’s all about the green stuff with them, and I don’t think The Strokes are contenders anymore.

I doubt your average NME reader knows about Leonard Cohen's 80s-00s touring habits or The Strokes' propensity for only playing high-paying shows tho.

So excited to be coming to Glasto from the US this year...the first big fest of the year (Hangout) announced their lineup today and Travis Scott, Cardi B, The Lumineers, Khalid, Vampire Weekend, and Kygo are headlining...I threw up in my mouth a little, the US fest scene (outside Coachella and Bonnaroo) really blows lately...

You're likely to get Throwing it All Away > Follow You, Follow Me > Invisible Touch.

I know, but just imagine those three songs Tonight, Tonight, Tonight then Domino then Mama closing the Pyramid one night, it would be the greatest ever end to a night

... shame it won't ever happen though. I can still dream

I'm sorry, I know he's a c**t but the man has some absolute tunes. Easy Lover, Invisible Touch, Sussudio... Sorry HMV but I'm a slave to the rhythm.

I hear ya, he has some catchy tunes that are proper ear worms but I really can't get over how  much I want to punch him in the face.

As much as I should despise him for being a tax dodging Tory, you're right that he has some solid gold bangers.

I think you might be taking his talent a bit far. I would hardly call anything the drummer boy did a solid gold banger. They are annoyingly catchy but his voice grates on me and he's a c**t.

Each to their own. I've got a soft spot for Gabriel era Genesis, but not the Phil years, at least not post-Duke.

    • Hey everyone! My friend and I are heading over from Sweden to Tramlines this summer. We had our eyes on a bunch of different festivals in the UK, but since most of them sold out before we even knew if we’d be able to make the trip, we finally settled on Tramlines. Why Tramlines, you might ask? Well, because we’re absolutely crazy about British music, and finding a festival like this (where you also don’t have to camp, a huge plus) made it impossible not to buy a ticket. The fact that I’ll also get to see The Enemy after beeing a fan for 19 years didn’t hurt either.   Since the app doesn’t work over here… is the Clashfinder schedule 100% accurate? What’s the venue like, and what does the map look like? Which sides of the stages are best to stand on? How long does it take to walk between stages? What are the prices usually for food and drinks? Is it easy to get to the festival from town? And is it easy to get back into town? Is it allowed to walk around with a beer anywhere in the venue, or are there those stupid fenced-off bar areas? As you can tell, I need all kinds of info, so please share your best tips and tricks to make this the best festival experience possible.  I’d really appreciate it. Thanks in advance! 😃
    • A whole year of this!  What a time to be alive! This is going to be an incredible playlist.
    • Sorry matey.  Always a nightmare when you have a plan and something scuppers it.   Happy myself, fills a nice little gap for me. Lucky so far really.     I’d have preferred an alternative too to break up the 21 pilot set but shan’t complain 
    • Happy with the name, unhappy with what it did to the lineup. Now I have to choose between Florence Road and Beirut 😞 and still no alternative to 21p.
    • Odd and rare for RW indeed! I even remember reading in the past that one of the reasons for certain bands not appearing there, were similar demands being rejected. It’s weird that they play after Gorillaz and even more weird that there won’t be an alternative. All they had to do was push Pixies to later.
