I think The Killers must have a bunch at least as big as Muse tracks but then one ginormo-hit that towers over the rest of their shit.

So they should just book Madonna? Come on.

Anyway, as I’ve said plenty, the festival has always had a couple of rock bands headline since any of us started going haven’t they? So why just expect it to change overnight?

They book what’s available, if that happens to be 3 beige acts then so be it, but you can’t deny that someone like Madge or Gaga would mean people would give a pass to the The Killers et al?

If we had a Gaga, Madonna or K-Dot on the Pymild then the others would be forgiven. 

Lady Gaga?

I was taking you seriously for a second there.

I agree with a lot of the sentiment in this thread, but also I don't give a shit who the headliners are really. I worked out I've seen less than one pyramid headliner per year on average over the last 15 or so years.

I’m not denying that. I’m saying it would come instead of Stormzy.

Not sure why they wouldn’t replace Bob and the lads with Madge if she were available/willing to play.

Stormzy/Madge/Killers looks miles better to me. 

Is what it is though. 

This is reason enough. Madge plays a setlist like that and she'll stink out the place whilst costing ££££££

Well damn. I just assumed that their fans here don’t tend to be concert goers.

Sold out Wembley in 90minutes. Wow.

Best sitcom of all time? That's the one ?

[thrillhouse188]

Was disappointed when I finally watched Seinfeld, why on Earth was Friends so popular over here? Seinfeld is 1000x better

I think you'll find that's Early Doors.

So the current thinking is Killers out, Chandler and the Lads in?

Not a surprise, they're playing everywhere else this summer.

Saw an influx of posts, read back and we seem to be no further forward. Guess that sums this year up so far.

This thread is going to be mad when they announced Gaga and Fleetwood for the final two slots ?
