Superunknown Posted February 7, 2019 Report Share Posted February 7, 2019 Hopefully it is Madonna, kinda wishing for a headliner I definitely won't see to make the potential Streets/Chems Saturday night clash easier. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not meaning to sound weird, just personally not a big fan of them and IMO it's an uninspiring headline booking. The same with The Strokes (if it does end up being those). Of course the usual caveat applies that it doesn't matter too much regardless, as there's always other options to choose from. Incidently it's also my best mates Glasto debut this year, and it would have been great for him to see a Pyramid headline act for one of the nights (we have similar music tastes).

Personally I couldn't think of anyone worse but am I in the minority? I couldn't think of a better booking. Genuine legend, with a huge back catalogue, who I've never seen live and never will unless she plays the festival. For me that's the best type of headliner, if it's someone I'd actually pay to see then I'd rather go to their own show. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dentalplan Posted February 7, 2019 Report Share Posted February 7, 2019 She’s so unrealistic that it’s practically worthless speculating about her, imo. New Prince - in fact he may have been more likely because he was more about control than money, or something like that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gearbm95 Posted February 7, 2019 Report Share Posted February 7, 2019 I've seen Madonna on the MDNA and Rebel Heart tour. Granted, she does do about 30% new songs on her headline tours, she curates the setlist in a way where you never feel bored. Her stage show/production is second to none and she almost always breaks out at least a couple rare tracks. Below is the setlist from her most recent (2015-2016) tour... "Iconic" "Bitch I'm Madonna" "Burning Up" "Holy Water" (contains excerpts from "Vogue") "Devil Pray" "Messiah" (video interlude) "Body Shop" "True Blue" "Deeper and Deeper" "HeartBreakCity" (contains excerpts from "Love Don't Live Here Anymore") "Like a Virgin" (contains elements of "Heartbeat" and "Erotica") "S.E.X." (video interlude) (contains elements of "Justify My Love") "Living for Love" "La Isla Bonita" "Dress You Up" / "Into the Groove" / "Lucky Star" / "Dress You Up" (Reprise) "Who's That Girl" "Rebel Heart" "Illuminati" (video interlude) "Music" (contains elements of "Give It 2 Me") "Candy Shop" "Material Girl" "La Vie en rose" "Unapologetic Bitch" Encore "Holiday" (contains elements of "Take Me to the Mardi Gras") show Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hugh Jass Posted February 7, 2019 Report Share Posted February 7, 2019 If she brings the hits then it could be one of the great Pyramid sets, if she doesn't she'll tank spectacularly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Havors Posted February 7, 2019 Report Share Posted February 7, 2019 The more I read this forum the more I feel a vast majority of its contributors are either in their late 40's or over 50.....

Badlands Posted February 7, 2019 Report Share Posted February 7, 2019 I’d love her to be there, but think it’s highly, highly unlikely. She’s no form with headlining festivals in the past. She rinses fans with the prices of her live shows. Didn’t Emily deny that she’d been booked earlier as well? Love to be proved wrong but can’t see it. More chance of The Strokes (who I still don’t expect to be there). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fortunately Mrs Inuit is not a fan of Madge so if she does turn up, it looks like I'll be bringing the ruckus with the Wu Tang Clan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
