I've met people all around the world who have heard of Glastonbury festival. Who couldn't name a single headliner of the past few years.
Glastonbury will continue to sell out in minutes. It doesn't need to 'gain' anything. Its touted as one of the best music festivals in the world. It can't really go much higher. 

The festival constantly trying to improve in every respect chief. Your response above seems hollow.

If it really is The Killers, I hope Mendip Council add a clause to the licence limiting renditions of Mr Brightside to one per ticket holder per day (not including Wed/Thurs).

This can be monitored by a chip inside the wristband, programmed to detect Mr Brightside on a Shazam type algorithm. Ticket holders will receive electric shocks every time they so much as hum that fucking tune, starting at 100v and increasing by 30v each time. On the fourth occasion, security are alerted and the ticket holder is unceremoniously ejected from the grounds. 

Those who don’t hum or sing it at all are guaranteed a ticket for 2020. 

Wow this will be really tough. I hate that song and I’m humming it already! I’m up for the challenge tho, those 2020 tixs will be mine...

I’ve had a thought...we’ve had info that suggests that both The Killers and The Strokes are headlining now.

Could it be possible The Cure are actually headlining the Other stage?

if my Killers info is correct then it's probably the case that the included info of the cure being the other headliner is also correct.

Yes, I think The Cure will probably headline Other and in the absence of anyone who disagrees, I think that’s the general consensus. 

Anyone?

No? 

Well OK then ?

Woah, hang on. So your info is Killers will headline Pymild but The Cure will headline Other? 

So does that mean we’re still one main headliner down? Or have I missed who the third would be?*

*please don’t say banjo & the lads

EDIT: I’ve just realised your ‘other’ was lower case. Sigh. Carry on.

Careful with mishaps like this you might just make another Summerset Live news headliner again

We all thought that before - and then 2008 happened.

To book The Killers in 2019 would just look like bad fortune, but to have The Strokes lined up alongside them would look like bad policy.

Peeps would be cockahoop on 'ere if Mumfords were booked. "Solid, reliable, hung like a baboon" etc.

I heard rumours in 2017 that The Killers' JP appearance was due to them headlining the next festival, which now look to be true. I've also heard rumours that Macca and his people have been talking about headlining, but it's not this year, it's the big 50th. You have to remember that a lot of the big bookings are made far in advance.

What a rollercoaster the last 20 pages have been. I was so excited only to get to the end frustrated and disappointed (usually what my mrs says)

Never mind, I seen them in 2017 but no real need to see them again, there will be plenty to choose from.

    • Another note, if I didn't mention the food in the arena for main stage is right at the back. Bands wise they do very well for but as a festival so far they pros are outweighed quite heavily currently for me.
    • On another note for RIP as an event, there is some good things but there are so many things people going to UK festivals would hate and how far behind they are.  Consistent network and water, beer and pretzel like food is brought around to buy in the crowds. Topping up on the wristband is good. The camping and food arrangement is not good, you really need cooking kit. Water points inside the arena are bonkers, water points in camping are a faff unless you are close enough in general camp. Merch stands are crazy. You MASSIVELY need to think about your lidl shop for camping and try and do it so you've one stop. It's definitely worth it getting to a camping shop here, picking up a rolley between your mates and stacking it for the walk back....lidl is cheap though, not hard getting in but Thursday queues getting in and into the camping is mad. You have to register first for a wristband as well leaving any bigger bags behind so pull to a side if only two and do it separately. I was joining a WhatsApp group for solo camp so went with the flow but I've learnt. Had it been me or just two my tent would have been down much quicker.  Big final note, I got a fresh and black 3 man from decathlon before coming and put in bigger suitcase with my airbed and sleeping bag...do this. Take a smaller option for your clothes. If you go to Munich first, book your train to Nuremberg as far in advance as you can....very important!....it hikes crazy. Probably bettee overall for baggage sizes to do BA both ways but you do then need to go back to Munich after too. Use the B&B hotel hbf the night before....its very nice, comfortable, cheap and within 10 minutes of the station which also serves as a transport stop 15 minutes from the registration.  Get up literally like 5am with everything back the night before, shower and go. Transport is free anyway for festival ticket holders during the duration.  Would I just choose to travel in each day and back to a hotel?, on the basis of sleep and getting accommodation cheap enough for 3 nights i might just do especially if I picked the ticket up early enough. It doesn't feel like a festival in a normal sense....unless you are in general yoi have to exit on the paths outside the camping to walk down and in which also applies for getting water so have a stock up. Toilets are in the camping.
