Gucci Piggy Posted January 24, 2019 Report Share Posted January 24, 2019 For 2020 I'd currently say Macca, Elton, Arctic Monkeys, The 1975, Kendrick and Ariana Grande all seem like they could be in with a shout at the moment. Obviously will depend on tours and albums, etc. but it feels like the opposite of 2019 where there never seemed to be many likely looking acts.

With you on Grande, but isn’t there a reason Elton is out of the running? I can’t recall why. I seem to have something in the back of my mind about it. Kendrick wont be playing without a new album, which is probable by that point. Booking him earlier in the album release cycle would be a power move. Much better than “check this guy out, he did DAMN a few years back. No? Ok also that one with “drink” in it over and over again.” Edited January 24, 2019 by kalifire Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think his record label leaked a list of their artists releasing this year or something along those lines? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elton could easily headline, especially with him being deep into his farewell tour and having never played the festival before. This is just wild speculation/wishful thinking on my part that the festival gives him an extended, 90 minute, legend slot as their big thing for the 50th.

Why not exactly? There's a very good chance they'll be the biggest band on the planet this time next year, and they've already expressed a desire to play the festival. If they're available why wouldn't they be booked? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's that's got to do with the price of fish? It's the 50th yeah but they can't magic Led Zeppelin out of their arse. The fact they're headlining R&L this year means nothing with regards to preventing them from headlining Glastonbury 2020 imo.

IMO. It all depends on how big a deal the 50th is amongst the top artists. If they buy into it then you could end up with bigger names being prepared to take lower slots to play (I'd stick my mortgage on Coldplay turning up somewhere but not headlining for example). If they don't then it's just another Glastonbury and the festival will just book whoever they can as they usually do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gnomicide Posted January 24, 2019 Report Share Posted January 24, 2019 The big anniversary line ups... 10th - There wasn't a festival ? 20th - The Cure; Happy Mondays; Sinead O'Connor 30th - Bowie; Travis; Chemical Brothers 40th - Gorrillaz (replacing U2), Muse, Stevie Wonder.
