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. Have R&L ever had the same headliner as Glastonbury? Can’t recall any so then yes your Mumford call looks most likely (sadly) so I really hope it’s Gaga or someone else Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crossfit Jesus Posted October 14, 2018 Report Share Posted October 14, 2018 The Killers have suddenly appeared on the SkyBet odds at 11/4, can't even recall them being there at all before, even at 50/1... Surely not? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He says it’s not Glastonbury then says the guy is legit. Done. Just wondering why this concrete proof?, is that person connected? The same guy saying about a special UK show say a there is nothing scheduled in for the UK. He just seems like some unnoficial person....which he actually is that may or may not be correct.

Only way I can see it is if it was the whole "do a secret set for us and you can headline next time" but I just don't see how it makes sense. Surely everyone who wanted to see them saw them then? But suddenly appearing at quite short odds seems to suggest something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MetaKate Posted October 14, 2018 Report Share Posted October 14, 2018 I think the killers are a possibility... especially after those brightside vids. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reading headliners have played below headliner at Glastonbury in the same year but even that’s very rare, not sure who was the last to do it before The Foals in ‘16.

The Red Telephone Posted October 14, 2018 Report Share Posted October 14, 2018 Don’t read too much into bookies odds. They are extremely small markets and a small flutter by one or two people is enough to make someone shorten in price dramatically. See the other day, when a few folk on here put tenners on the 1975 and they went from 7-1 to something like 1-3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're currently sixth favourite according to their odds, which is an odd place to just suddenly appear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Someone may have requested odds on The Killers, and if someone requests it on a market that could have inside info they would not have a big price.

RarerThanDandyB Posted October 14, 2018 Report Share Posted October 14, 2018 What are some on about. The Cure are massive and after selling out Malahide Castle and BST you cannot doubt the credentials. They have a back catalogue that goes back a long way and will be great to be billed by the BBC as the return after so many years like they did with Radiohead showing clips of the other slots. I personally think they would smash it. Robert Smiths voice sounds as it was recorded and I cannot wait to watch them in the field. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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... That one is about 8 foot away from where I was stood. You can see the girl on someone's shoulders in front of me. I had a great view of her back throughout the song. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was the one with the initial info that people jumped on (The iconic June Festival). He has now said it’s not Glastonbury. People were happy enough to believe the first part so why not the second? I’d say they’re 1 of the bands that have requested to do 2020. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And that's true, although I'd be surprised if they're taking requests on something like Glastonbury as they usually save that for specific markets, but definitely a possibility that makes sense. I just can't see them headlining as their 17 set left things perfectly, so them suddenly being there at those odds was a bit of a shocker.

I really hope it’s none of them but it’s likely to be at least one? Muse surely must be one of the acts that wanna play the 50th, so I reckon they'll hold off this year and then do a Killers-esque secret set on one of the stages in 2020 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it still holds with all the touring and release dates he had correct earlier this year. And indeed, wasn't too sure about them headlining GF again.
