Kylie and Janet on the same day? Seems unlikely, but I’m in!

Really don't think she could.

To be honest I think even the people saying sub are a bit optimistic - if she's playing Sunday then my best guess would be 3rd from top immediately after Kylie. Even then I think Kylie would slightly overshadow her.

I think she'd play below Kylie to be honest.

Remember when Janet Jackson's boob was accidentally on TV for about 1 second and the entire world lost their minds about it for about 6 months? All anybody could talk about. The news used to be quite banal before the constant existential threat of western civilisation's impending collapse.

Odds have been slashed on The Killers headlining according to NME.

“’Somebody Told Me’ that The Killers could be on for another Glastonbury headliner slot this year – so we’ve cut our odds after they’ve been well backed,” said a spokesman for 888sport. “Brandon Flowers would certainly be ‘The Man’ for the job, and after a flurry of bets, we think they’re set to light up the Pyramid Stage once again.”
 

Saw that. Interesting.

All we need now is to have Kasabian enter the fray and we’ll have the unholy KKK trinity all in possible (hopefully unrealistically) contention

If you’re willing to spend a few quid on it, you can push their odds down and they’ll have their own article and everything.

Kings Of Leon and The Killers would be much more suitable headliners than The Strokes tbf.

I mean, they're all mostly dogshit for 10+ years, but at least your average Pyramid field dweller/BBC viewer would actually know who KoL and The Killers are and more than 1 of their songs.

Why should we care about those people?

This may well have been raised already but if it does end up being The Strokes, maybe that wasn't the original intention, i.e. they were booked to sub Paul McCartney (or The Cure), and circumstances (i.e. a headliner dropout and no viable alternatives) resulted in a Florence-esque bunk-up?

Pretty much the ONLY way The Strokes are gonna headline Glastonbury in 2019.

    • Rotten communication. Actually god awful. Posting sporadically on IG, closing Mordor only to reopen and cause some serious carnage. Left the festival as it got too much for my 16year old daughter. She was devastated about Alex G and Mac…but TV girl could have saved it. Took us until 1220 and already home to find out they might/are playing. Pish.    and on another note, this festival has lost its bastard soul. Gone are the wee tents with local sellers selling vinyl, t shirts etc, now you can buy a 50 f**king eur official T-shirt. The ar*e is truely out of this event now. I went to Porto for the first time last year and it was fab. I love Barcelona and the line up is always stacked, but this festival is a corporate loss take. Hopefully a better day tomorrow.
    • f**king horrendous and seems they couldn’t run an egg and spoon race.  zero info and the crush waiting to get in to see Massive Attack was potentially disasterous. Zero info, no stewards at all and was told that the whole evening was cancelled, when we got to the exit. Because it rained. First time attendee and i’ve got onsay, i’m far from impressed. Scalping bastard taxis asking €37 plus for an €11 fare too. Wonderdul.
    • Rumours are it's called The Lost Tour. In the US in September. Ireland in November (so UK+Europe a good bet around November/early December). 
    • Hey guys, is there a group going for any solo y not goers this year?? I couldn’t miss out once I saw the acts but it’s just me and would be great to meet some others:))
    • After deciding to abandon the festival, here's a few of my thoughts (mostly negative tbf).    On the positive side - was it just me or were there a few more urinals than last year? Seemed to help the queues at the loos a bit from what i saw. Plus they had at least had some foresight and had a few more covered areas in the VIP areas.    Now on the negatives.  The weather was admittedly pretty crap but it wasn't apocalyptic. How the actual f**k are bits of the main stage falling off in those conditions?  Then the communication was awful, there's a load of people who left the site because they were told by security guards/other personnel that there would be no more acts on the main stage this evening.  You have an app Primavera, use it! Yes, there's a shitload going on I'm sure but communication with the festivalgoers should be one of the top priorities. You failed.    And I'm not usually somebody who buys into the whole "oh this is hugely unsafe and it's lucky people weren't hurt" narrative, but all the above led to movements of people that were genuinely unsafe.  Evacuating Mordor entirely (again... Why???) and then having a horde of people trying to get in because they thought they were going to Massive Attack was insane.  And given a lot of people basically abandoned ship around 10.30pm the crush at both the exit to the festival and the entrance to the Metro was pretty dangerous.   Conditions happen, most people will get that....but the contingencies have to be better.
