On the flip side, new Arcadia will be very popular (I expect they’ll nail it). 

Yeh can't wait to see that! We camp on Park Home Ground so we're close by too. I suppose with The Park being open later and more going on (is that definitely happening) it takes a lot of pressure off SEC.

Hopefully. And it'll be monumental. An absolute sack full of bangers. Mesmerising watching him on piano too, especially some of his extended intro's.

Probably a dream Pyramid headliner for me.

It will be interesting to see how they communicate the changes they have made. It seems there will be quite a few new things compared to 2017: return of micro venues to SEC, new park area/park open later, changes to Arcadia. I wonder if they will be marketed as targeted to different audiences or kept broad. Also will the changes be announced all together or separately to build the hype. 

 

So much to look forward to!

Yeah, people are going to have to be trained for the default Pied Piper march to SE Corner.

The Cure on the Sunday would do me just fine as it’d stop the first major clash of the weekend. 

I don’t see that being right though. No back to back dates on their tour, and The Cure as the big Saturday night headliner just doesn’t seem right, although The Killers as the Sunday locals headliner seems pretty spot on. 

When The Cure last headlined they did the Sunday and they were absolutely perfect for that slot - in a few hits and a singalong kind of a way.

Not Elton, can't really say too much more right now.

Don't get too excited. This far from the event it's probably bull, anyway.

British or Non British (or technically both)?

Only surprising thing is that they’re not playing 2 days in a row anywhere else.

The Killers being for the local audience makes more sense. 

they're even subbing at a couple of festivals in the same country so that they can manage to fit in 2 on a weekend (Fri/Sun), so can't see them doing back to back nights, especially having to travel from Belgium.

When they announced their March tour, playing venues much smaller than they could have, I assumed they subscribed to the Malcolm Maclaren/Sex Pistols ‘always leave them wanting more’ view. But come festival season they’re seemingly in competition with Peter Hook & the Light to play everything they can.

IDLES are clearly playing lower everywhere than people expected them to.

Paul McCartney. 

Hence the rumours before. We just got the wrong year. 2020 Macca, Saturday headliner.

Here, there and everywhere?

Quite like the idea of seeing The Killers on the Sunday night. Usually absolutely knackered by then just want a good dance and sing a long rather than anything too demanding.
