2019 Headliners

[CaledonianGonzo]

While a world with no repeat bookings at all remains out of reach I'd much rather Stevie came back than Mumford and Sons or the Arctic Monkeys.

What happened with Prince again? Was he booked and then he decided not to do it?

Also why did the stones get a higher price than anyone for?

I heard he was booked but then pulled out because of the reception that Jay-Z got when he was booked OR it had gotten out that he was playing before it was official so didn't want to do it.  Either way, it was a great loss.

 

As for The Rolling Stones, I don't know why other than it's The Rolling bloody Stones and can command a higher price (despite not needing it)

Tbh I wouldn't really gave a monkeys if his set was largely identical. It was nearly 10 years ago now.

[BlueDaze]

it could still be The Strokes..........................................

Exactly this. I was there and had a great time but can’t remember the set list. Maybe miss out the bit where Eavis came on stage though this time

This whole repeat bookings thing can go one of two ways.

You either get Arctic Monkeys or Muse stinking the place out every 5 years.

Or you can have acts like The Chemical Brothers putting on the set of the weekend every time they pop down. 

Stevie would be firmly in the rip-it-up camp and 9 years is enough time that you could have a field full of people who weren’t there the first time.

[Winslow Leach]

They could easily book Stevie Wonder again, I don't think people in the real world measure the gaps between repeat bookings quite as religiously as we do.

[FatAmmy]

Stevie Wonder and Fleetwood Mac are much better options than the Strokes or the fucking Killers. Let's make one of those happen, thanks in advance

I still think on balance it’s probably the Strokes. Fleetwood Mac and Stevie Wonder sound too good to be true.

[djdavejohnson]

This is the big G though - they got this*

 

 

 

*Please please please please please please please please please have this. Not The Strokes. Steeeevie.

Were has talk of Fleetwood Mac come from? I thought they had been ruled out.

Couple of people claiming to have talked to people in the know etc claiming the third headliners is Fleetwood. Could prove to be bollocks but it’s something to talk about at least!

[chatty]

Talk of two blokes was meant to be Stormzy and McCartney.

So that theory splits in two, either McCartney was pencilled in and has pulled and thus the 'two blokes' is now one bloke and a replacement. 

Or Macca was never ever booked and it still holds up with a mystery bloke being still in frame. 

Or its Coldplay again under the name Chris Martin who turns up on his own and does a Coldplay acoustic set on his norman.

If everyone going to the festival threw in a fiver we could match The Strokes' fee and get them to stay the fuck away for the weekend.

[Dave_c]

Strokes would be awesome, I hope they are headlining. I'd rather see them than most of the others rumoured to be playing.

They won't be headlining either way.

How do you know? They have as much chance as anyone...

[FloorFiller]

The Strokes are not headlining Glastonbury 2019.

I have no idea. I’m hoping to be pleasantly surprised. But I just really don’t see it being The Strokes at all.
