MetaKate Posted October 14, 2018 Report Share Posted October 14, 2018 K so I just saw A star is born, and have renewed love for Gaga. I think she well deserves a headline spot and hope we get it this year. Macca, Gaga, The Cure, cmon! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The lead up beforehand was too... I ended up about 8 rows from the front with minimal effort, crazy when you see the videos outside the tent. Here's another view of inside... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sat through the entire Frank Carter set.... which was excellent... in order to get a good spot for this. It was epic and your vid brought it all flooding back. Bring on 2019!

briddj Posted October 14, 2018 Report Share Posted October 14, 2018 Mr Brightside in JP was a proper goosebumps moment. Never heard a crowd singing a song so loudly, completely in unison. Every. Single. Person. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FloorFiller Posted October 14, 2018 Report Share Posted October 14, 2018 I wish I was a bigger Killers fan as although I enjoyed the set, belting out Mr Brightside in that crowd was just that for me - belting out Mr Brightside, for the thousandth time. Would love a similar secret set next year from somebody I'm more bothered about, but after having such a big act in 2017 I fear it'd already reach Park-level overcrowding issues with everybody expecting a headliner sized surprise act and getting there mega early. As for Arctic Monkeys being out, good! The headliner options just got a whole lot less boring. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amy Lawn Posted October 14, 2018 Report Share Posted October 14, 2018 That Killers set was really really fucking good, but you can't get a sense of why when you just watch a video of drunks belting out Mr Brightside. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EDIT: Although most of us think Stormzy is more likely to be a sub. And Gaga is up for debate whether she would be likely to headline in the UK, for a good deal of people the recent film reminded them of her excistence. Plus some of the health issues.

FloorFiller Posted October 14, 2018 Report Share Posted October 14, 2018 Not that it matters at all but The Cure playing the Saturday/Sunday seems weird to me, but maybe only because those slots have been taken up by huge mega stars the past few years. Would be weird to see the Pyramid field half empty on either of those days at headliner time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Before the movie I wouldnt have given a set by him a second thought, but now I'll be bothered if he clashes with someone I want to see.

kevbizarre Posted October 14, 2018 Report Share Posted October 14, 2018 So I didn’t realise 1975, Muse and Mumford have all got albums out towards the end of this year, so will all be touring next summer? I really hope it’s none of them but it’s likely to be at least one? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im failing to see them as headliners tbh, it's just that the info is there. There doesn't seem to be too many options this year. Stormzy, Gaga, The Cure, Macca, The 1975 & Taylor Swift. Im pretty confident it will be 3 of those 6. Im pretty confident 1 will be McCartney too. Edited October 14, 2018 by FuzzyDunlop Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The other two aren't options at all imo, although could appear in a secret set capacity I suppose.

I really hope it’s none of them but it’s likely to be at least one? Muse did it in 2016 so won’t be them. The 1975 and Mumford are both possible although for The 1975 it looks like they’d be doubling up with headlining Reading too, which would be unusual to say the least. From what Neil’s said on here there’s only one slot left open, if it was one of those three I’d think Mumford the most likely for the reasons above, although I think Gaga.

Even though we've had the 'tallicans doing the sat it still looks a bad fit if The Cure are a sat or sun headliner. I wouldn't be surprised to not see them on the bill now.

Thing with Metallica is, they have a huge worldwide following & are much bigger than the Cure. It was something different too. First metal act to play - so it was more of an event. So I understood that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
