2019 Headliners

[CaledonianGonzo]

Likewise.  Nice one.

 

Does that work with their tour dates?

Hope this is true as I'd really like to see The Cure and Janelle Monae. We all were pretty convinced they were Sunday, why was that? To do with gaps between their other shows or a rumour? They've always felt a slightly odd Sunday choice.

just took a call (about something else) from the main source who told me the cure. Anyway, talk gets back to the cure, and one of the extra things he said was "I'm 99% sure I was told they are on saturday".

That's interesting. Was hoping to avoid a clash between The Cure and Chemical Brothers, can see what's gonna happen though..

yeah. They  have a show in Belgium on the Friday, but that's it.

PS: the something else was interesting and involves someone supposedly playing in 2020 .... but that's something for another time. ?

Is there an announcement on the horizon?

Most of us had them pegged for the Sunday given they were playing Werchter on the Friday. Does this affect the Killers/Sunday thinking?

Only surprising thing is that they’re not playing 2 days in a row anywhere else.

The Killers being for the local audience makes more sense.

Go on Neil, it's always the time. Elton? Macca?

no idea, but I'd guess not for a week or so at minimum as they did the plastic bottles thing yesterday.

Lauryn Hill is getting about this summer isn't she?! Still feels likely she'll head to the farm. The weekend before she's in Oxford. The Wednesday before the festival she's in Ireland.

Oh, and of course...Idles on for another festival.

When they announced their March tour, playing venues much smaller than they could have, I assumed they subscribed to the Malcolm Maclaren/Sex Pistols ‘always leave them wanting more’ view. But come festival season they’re seemingly in competition with Peter Hook & the Light to play everything they can.

Yeah, they've even left a day in between Madrid and Lisbon so them doing two days in a row would be very surprising. I guess it's not impossible but I still think Sunday is much more likely for them.

I'm completely down for my trio of headliners being Stormzy / The Cure / Janelle. Yes please!

[morph100]

Any clue which stage The Cure are headlining? ?

I would be enormously fucked off at a Killers/Janelle clash. Hope this is completely wrong. 

The Cure headlining on Saturday just doesn't seem right, personally.

Friday - early entry into SE corner

Saturday- chems

Sunday- killers/streets depending on many factors that could change throughout the course of the weekend
