Ringo confirmed. 

Would love to see No No Song on the Pyramid

[Mr.Tease]

Whether he headlines or not, all this talk of my arch nemesis Paul McCartney headlining has allowed me the time and incentive to go back through my half listened to Beatles albums (bought some 20 years ago and dismissed!) and appreciate them a lot more- never got through 'the White album' in it's entirety before, but now find it very enjoyable. Also hadn't really paid attention to this song before:

It's an efestival's thread success story!

Also newly like this one now too:

Only Macca didn't write it, Lennon did and it was credited to Lennon and McCartney.

He didn't write that one either, it was an old Lennon song and Macca added one chorus, again it was jointly credited.

 

I'll probably see him, hubby would like to, and in his defence he's probably the best Beatles songwriter still alive and probably the best Beatles singer still alive. That last bit was a guess, I haven't heard Ringo sing since yellow submarine.

You think he's a better songwriter than George ? Or a better singer than, well the other three ?

[Honeybane]

Could Father John Misty be the Macca sub?

Not really got a clue who it could be on the Sun.

I don't think he's big enough really - that's a pretty big slot. Hopefully it's Childish Gambino!

Definitely not big enough. And considering he chose Black Eyed Peas to sub himself in 2004 it’s really anybody’s guess.

I'm not sure there's really such a thing as a Beatles "deep cut", but this is one of their more underappreciated songs:

Edit: I know that's a Lennon tune too. But John was better, wasn't he?

So realistically what are the chances of Childish Gambino being on the farm?

Slim, I think. Hasn't he finished touring for the mo?

Had some UK shows this month that got postponed until March I think? Still not close enough to the festival to expect an extra Glastonbury show really

[jparx]

Wonder if Bon Iver would agree to that slot? They seem to be chasing headline slots at the mo, but I'd argue subbing Macca is a bigger deal than headlining the Other, or indeed headlining most other festivals in the UK.

Stormzy > Liam

The Cure > LDR

Macca > Bon Iver

[mufcok]

Any chance of Noel for that slot do you think @eFestivals or Friday morning or bust for him?

Thought as much. Just still seeing his name get mentioned a lot and it's the hope that kills ya.

Noel could do just about anywhere.

He needed to cryosleep for the rest of the day after filming that.

I know they're mainly Lennon songs, I said in an earlier post that I prefer Lennon's songs, and it inspired me to check that's still the case--it is indeed! but I discovered some more Lennon songs that had passed me by

Coachella should be the first to announce him, very early January. There won’t be long to wait after that to find out if he’s doing more shows. If he’s not retiring after Coachella then I think he’s not only fair game, but there being rumours despite this retirement talk would make me think he’s pretty likely.
