2019 Headliners

[Bisque]

@russycarps would you see The 1975?

[Gnomicide]

Latitude headliners are George Ezra, Snow Patrol and Lana Del Rey. 

Stokes is still on ?

Looks like they got them on exclusive then which makes it seem more real.

I thought he was headlining the Isle of Wight, too?

Does this take LDR out the running as a potential sub? I can never remember if there's much crossover with Latitude

I'm starting to think that you might actually like the Strokes to headline Glastonbury...

or not at all, considering their first European gig is still 2 weeks after Glastonbury...

So assuming The Strokes are playing a UK festival, where else does that leave them to play other than Glasto? Just APE/Hyde Park? Could they do a Finsbury Park date?

The Strokes is happening , hopes are up now.. ready to be knocked down.. again

I think there's quite often one Latitude headliner at Glastonbury but I'm not sure if there's ever been more than one. Let's hope for Lana rather than George Ezra but I wouldn't be surprised if none of them played.

[mufcok]

I'm not sure APE will happen with the U.S date a week after.. only to then come back to Europe to do a string of festivals

They wouldn't do Hyde Park after the last time and APE is prior to coming to Europe so I doubt that also.

I've only been to Latitude once but The Black Keys headlined the same year they subbed Glastonbury.

Makes 2 x Gallagher and Gambino more likely for subs.

A lot of us had Ezra down for third on the Sunday, not sure he'd play that slot now considering he's headlining two other festivals that month (think he's also headlining Victorious or something similar - too lazy to check).

Very true. Think he’d have to sub now if he agreed to play at all. When we used to say about Sheeran playing third down or Ellie Goulding, they’d weren’t headlining fests like this.

He’s a future fucking headliner though, sadly. Maybe they’ll keep powder dry for that.

Could see LDR still subbing in that case then. Liam, LDR and Gambino makes sense with Noel Other headliner? Doesn't really work if it's The Strokes headlining though. Potentially swap NG for Gambino but feel it's ridiculous having both Gallagher brothers subbing.

Yeah heaflining Latitude certainly doesn't rule anyone out (New Order did it in 2016), but I think George Ezra is only headlining festivals so far so hopefully that does rule him out.

You reckon? I can't see him getting any bigger than he is now, but then I think I said that before his second album came out so could easily be wrong. Did he even have any hit singles on this album? I'm surprised it took him to such large gigs/festival placings as I don't think I heard anything from it.

Jesus christ Snow Patrol swooping in out of nowhere to headline is weird.

[kingcrawler]

At the moment I’m thinking Liam Gallagher, Childish Gambino and The 1975 as subs. Would be a very strong trio.

Shotgun got to number 1 in the charts and has been fucking inescapable. You definitely will’ve heard it.

Any reason for The 1975 being back in the frame or just a stab in the dark?

Why 1975 after they apparently got offered to headline and accepted RandL?

Two of the biggest songs of last year. You seriously not heard Shotgun? That was much bigger than Budapest was even.
