The lack of information is starting to cause me physical discomfort. 

I'm starting pilates soon. I'll let you know if this helps.

Does anyone think there is a realistic chance of it not being The Cure and The Killers? As depressing as that is.... I just can’t think of anyone else feasible, available and suitable 

There's something in the back of my head telling me it's not The Cure. It's probably just blind hope, but that's all I've got.

Does anyone else think it is kind of weird that Arctic Monkeys toured for about 4 months for TBH&C, then disappeared? They have zero festivals or gigs this year. They were my solid shout for it 12 months ago, so I find it quite strange that they disappeared

They're in the antipodes at the moment and are touring South America until the start of April.

Also, if I'd recorded TBH&C, id disappear too

Really? I've heard absolutely nothing of them since about October!

Oh, I agree. It was a very boring album imo

Something in me has The Cure playing on the Other Stage.  I know this flies in the face of conventional wisdom, but just the way they've thrown themselves into the festival circuit this year makes me think they'd accept it if offered (I have zero actual knowledge about this).  Probably just kidding myself, but I have rationalised both Gaga and Fleetwood Mac (in spite, again of perceived logic) in my mind for Pyramid headliners.  I do think The Killers are likely headliners though.

The Cure are headlining every festival they’re playing. They may not have top billing at some as they have multiple headliners per day, but they’re still very much headlining. No way are a band of their stature, famed for their often 3+ hour sets, gonna settle for an hour and fifteen on the second stage at Glastonbury.

I guess it’s the old argument; they don’t quite feel right for 2019, but billings elsewhere and their history mean that they could only headline. They also address a demographic that Stormzy and (arguably) The Killers don’t. If it was my money I’d keep Bob and the lads and give another young act a go rather than The Killers. Or book Gaga.

    • I'm British so it very much would apply for me.   I mean, it's a moot point as I don't have tickets so will not be in town for this, but I've heard reports of lengthy queues and given I remember Lisbon Airport having a long queue at arrivals even pre-EES when I went in 2023, I seem to guess it might be quite the wait, depending on flight paths.   Certainly, the worst I've had pre-EES was a 45 minute wait for a stamp at Valencia Airport in Spain, where 4 flights to non-EU destinations in quick succession were placed one after the other. So I can't say I'm enthusiastic about what's in store. Or you know. Maybe I'm just overthinking it.
    • Out of interest keep seeing messages saying last 12 hours etc… to buy you full weekend tickets.  Whats that about? Do they take them off sale early?
    • I reckon it'll be deftones and Biffy clyro 
    • If Friko are replacing The Beths that's a very rare example of a band being replaced by another band who I'm equally eager to see. Great news.
