Outside the box and has me ready to be shouted at - but what about this.

 

K-pop at Glasto?

Should be space for it somewhere being a world arts festival, maybe afternoon on west holts.

Actually I'd see some fun novelty like that as more of a proposition for Pyramid, Other, JPT or Park before WH really. But yeah, some K-Pop could go down well. IMHO the more variety you see in a given day, the better. When the acts are distinct from each other it means you feel renewed watching them and can remember what you saw afterwards.

I think (hope) there is a good chance Neil Young could be a possibility? Different band than last time and as far as I know bst isn't an exclusive... 

 

Seems more plausable than the strokes imo

Keep this hype train in the station please, I don't want to go into fully Shakey-or-die mode and then get depressed when the Arctic Monkeys get announced.

Blackpink are at Coachella, so they do festivals. I might be in the minority, but I'd love a bit of K-pop at Glasto.

This may sound ridiculous, but Calvin Harris? I assume he would demand too high a fee and would rather rake it in in his Las Vegas residency slot all summer. 

If he was going to perform his tunes as live as possible with guest singers then I would be happy to see him headline.

As a dj he's not worth the money.

Imagine this. The way to make the Strokes the greatest headliner ever. Ignore arguing over the order, let's assume the Strokes are headlining and acknowledge fans of the other bands will argue they should sub.

Saturday Pyramid:

The Strokes

Interpol

Yeah Yeah Yeahs

Vampire Weekend

Some other good stuff

A hangover and a bacon butty

VW were bigger than Interpol. I would say Interpol would be above them at this exact point in time, but surely VW wouldn't show without another record that would bump them up to 2. Not the point anyway. I'd just rather have VW fourth so I could have my tea during them and not miss the YYY's ?
Just how brilliant would it be? Unfortunately days that make sense are very really the remit of the Pyramid stage bookers and life just isn't that cool anymore. Maybe in the distant past Leeds could have puled that off, but these days very unlikely..

    • Not necessarily but it should be, Download have a habit of messing it uo when others get the bookings on point. Good Charlotte I doubt are playing 3rd down and that too 3 that day while dreamy is too strong. I think you'd have one another day to help sell weekend tickets. I also doubt Papa Roach play. 
    • Here's a bit of a wild stab, few placings may be off, and for all I know half of these won't actually be touring next year, but screw it, it's a bit of fun   Pyramid: Sabrina Carpenter, Phoebe Bridgers, TBA (Florence + The Machine), Garbage, The Last Dinner Party, Interpol, Alex James Britpop Classical Other: Chase & Status, Teddy Swims, Clairo, The Kooks, Zara Larsson, Kingfishr, Sports Team, Orbital West Holts: Robyn, Baby Keem, De La Soul, Deltron 3030, JID, Dua Saleh, kwn, Daniela Latila Woodsies: Bonobo, Darkside, TBA (Tame Impala), Laufey, Warmduscher, Wednesday, The Lottery Winners, The Royston Club, Florence Road Park: Patti Smith, Super Furry Animals, Slayyyter, The Cardigans, Skye Newman, Kelly Lee Owens, Teen Jesus & The Jean Teasers   Pyramid: Harry Styles, The xx, Richard Ashcroft, The Pogues, Jessie J, Sigrid, Travis Other: Rosalia, Sombr, Mitski, Alex Warren, Holly Humberstone, Cat Burns, Pale Waves, Yard Act West Holts: Basement Jaxx, Elyanna, Clipse, L’Imperatrice, Nation of Language, Jim Legxacy, Yazmin Lacey, RIP Magic Woodsies: Suede, Chvrches, Bleachers, MUNA, The Cribs, Keo, Bleech 9:3, The Lilacs Park: MARINA, Magdalena Bay, Jacob Alon, TBA (Lily Allen performs West End Girl), Getdown Services, Isaac Wood, Snail Mail, Madra Salach Pyramid: Sam Fender, Hozier, David Byrne, Cher, Obongjayar, David Gray, Billy Ocean Other: Doja Cat, Deftones, Addison Rae, Ren, Viagra Boys, Maisie Peters, The Reytons, Hard Life West Holts: Kano, Thievery Corporation, Angine De Poitrine, Thee Sacred Souls, Brooke Combe, Sasha Keable, Master Peace Woodsies: The Wombats, Metronomy, Geese*, Dry Cleaning, EsDeeKid, Sienna Spiro, Cowboy Hunters, Radio Free Alice Park: Big Thief, Laura Marling, MJ Lenderman, Richard Dawson, Oklou, Maruja, Dead Dads Club, Ratboys   *There's always one band booked for Woodsies that ends up being massively under-billed and gets shut down really early. They'd be better off playing somewhere like Other sub, but I could see the G getting them to play a smaller stage while it's still possible
    • Another Kraftwerk one for me today, as just back from seeing them.    
    • Completed my 2026 survey. Put down Super Furry Animals as my most wanted for next year but suspect the moment has gone for that. Popped a big shopping list in the box for who else you would like to see. 🙂
