George Ezra is successful right now because Ed Sheeran is taking a break.

George Ezra is successful right now because Ed Sheeran became too much of a horny bastard.

On the subject of him playing this year I could see him playing a secret set. I don’t think he’l actually be on the lineup there doesn’t seem to be any space for him. Plus it would hinder his chances of headlining in the near future if he played as a sub this year.

No space for him? We've had what, 3 acts confirmed? Lol

[Gucci Piggy]

And subs are being ruled out left, right and centre.

that was what I was trying to work out ... had the lineup dropped without me realising ?

People were saying the same about Sheeran a few years ago...

I think Sheeran has an endless capacity to churn out his dirges though, so he'd always have the numbers. Fake voice George has got three times in five years or so. His supernova is about to implode. Good luck to him though, if people buy that shite, I'm happy to see a seemingly nice guy laugh all the way to the bank.

Whatever you think of him George Ezra would attract a big crowd. Family groups, folk looking for a bit of Pop and a sing a long. But not a headliner, an afternoon slot

If Ed Sheeran can headline with his wet shite, so can Ezra.

I'm all for Koenig and Furman getting the slot but let's not go as far as George.

[CJTM]

But, what year are The War On Drugs headlining

Placid just asked in group chat what happened to Alabama Shakes and I said they're gonna headline WH after dental predicting it for years like Lana Del Rey at Latitude.

Possibility of The Cure being ruled out of headlining this year? Looking at Rock Werchters line up, they're playing the Friday (27th) there. Could this be all hope gone? However, Janelle Monae also playing that day, so maybe they're booked there for a reason?

This musical regression is fucked up. It's like the Beatles are morphing into a skiffle band like Benjamin Button. George Ezra pretty much is fucking George Formby. Can't wait for the "When I'm Cleaning Windows" tour...

Yeah, cheers. Got confused with the days for a second there

I'm sure they could probably do both but I kinda feel that JC and the lads being announced for APE takes them out of contention for Glastonbury.

[CaledonianGonzo]

If it doesnt then it's a sign that they  were relying on Macca and then panicked  and took whoever they could get when he sacked it off.  APE is basically Lovebox on steroids right?

If The Strokes aren't billed as UK festival exclusives at All Points East, then they're pretty much nailed on for Glastonbury aren't they? Surely theres nowhere else in the UK left for them to go?

They may not use it as a marketing tool...
