LiamMcMillen Posted November 18, 2018 Report Share Posted November 18, 2018 19 minutes ago, Zoo Music Girl said: Nick Cave is a great shout but technically a band. Also he wouldn't say no, he's been proving himself worthy of that slot for years as a strong sub. He lives in LA now, doesn't he? Could be a chance he wouldn't want to make the journey for one gig considering he toured the death out of Europe last year. Would love it though, Cave's deserved the headline slot since Push the Sky Away and *that* performance in 2013. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chatty Posted November 18, 2018 Report Share Posted November 18, 2018 Fuck it, it's time to get Butthole Surfers back on the road and taking their rightful slot as Pyramid headliners. Who doesn't want to see Glastonbury end with 80 thousand people singing The Ballad of a Naked Man. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slash's hat Posted November 18, 2018 Report Share Posted November 18, 2018 So thinking of female solo artists; Madonna - new album next yr, likely to have a tour waiting in the wings so dates might be a problem, expensive. Kate Bush - Picky about what she does, but doesn't mean no. Swift - apparently not a fan of festivals but I believe has done some, so maybe. Kylie - bump up from legend slot and find replacement for that which could be easier to fill Pink - too many days on the trot touring Gaga - can't see why she would turn it down really. Available as far as we know. Beyonce - done before so could be a reason for saying no. But will have been 8 yrs ago so a possible. Dua Lipa - biggest selling female artist this year, a Glastonbury regular. Only one album and too big a step up. Cher - active again touring US. Finishes in time unless has European dates up her sleeve. Can't think of anyone else. Of course 50% chance of being female is meaningless really.

Jake9502 Posted November 18, 2018 Report Share Posted November 18, 2018 She did say in her last tweet “someone she’s already mentioned” so maybe just look back through her tweets and see who she’s mentioned? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cave was wonderful at RW last year but can’t help the feeling Stormzy, The Cure and Nick Cave is a bit bold even for the Eavii Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everyone seems much more willing to accept bad news rather than good. If a random girl on twitter posted that ‘Fleetwood mac/Daft Punk/insert act people want here’ were playing because her ‘industry bod’ mates said so, almost nobody would take it with anything other than a large punch of salt. I mean it might be true and she may be right, but believing her isn’t particularly logical at this stage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the interest in this change of circumstances is because there's nothing else to talk about in the headliners thread, seeing as we thought we had it all wrapped up.

I suspect the 50% chance thing was a reference to the gender balance in the population. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn’t Gnomi say though that she wasn’t any old random, but was in a band that’s played festivals. Doesn’t make her right of course, and I certainly hope she’s not, but she may have more of an insight than most of us Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My thought with Dlyan is if they wanted him, and he wanted to do it, it would have happened already though. Yeah I'm surprised he's never did it before but fitting with the 2 blokes comment I can't think of many others that would be in a similar vain to Macca (not that it has to). I still think it's going to be Macca though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
