2019 Headliners

[CaledonianGonzo]

They've tried to minimise the damage by bumping up Kylie and Janet to the top row.

I needed better than that on a hangover

Lot of people on social media excited by the killers? I’m sorry but they’ve just finished touring pretty much everywhere. And hey played a (not so) secret set. So not sure what warrants them worthy as headliners? 

Happy with the cure though, even though we knew they were pretty much nailed on from day one.

No real pattern on here like the last one when it was clear The National and Biffy were subs? I'm guessing Janet, George and Liam (but not in that day order).

Loads more to come but I'm happy with this for a start. I think Miley will smash it.

they've had their day but they're still hugely popular all the same. They'll have the biggest crowd of all the headliners.

I'm happy with the Cure headlining. Cannot wait.

Yep, also absolutely buzzing. Was so worried that, after months of rumours on here, they wouldn't be there.

How long do we reckon they'll get?

Out of these three headliners I don’t doubt it. But you are right.

The person twitter lady was referring to as the headliner was Lauryn Hill...

more cracking aftertiming from her.

Not everyone’s cup of tea, for sure, especially in 2019.. but they’re cracking live so those who do pop along won’t regret it.

Yup, noticed that too.

[BambooShanks]

As I said in the must see / maybe thread, I am adequately whelmed by the line up.  There's plenty that  I'll be happy to see (or have seen before) and there's a couple of sets that I'll be catching no matter what but there's nothing that really boils my piss.

In a way, isn't that the ideal situation?  Lots of enjoyable acts and not a lot of shite, if the weather is anything like '17, I'm going to have a wonderful time bimbling around!

there's no way Lauryn Hill was in the running to headline.

[Mash011]

That's pretty poor isn't it lads. Surprisingly content to not have a ticket this year.

[brendan84]

Really poor set of headliners,   still hoping the splits work out well.

Keep telling yourself that pal

[CaledonianGonzo]

I blame everyone who went to The Killers secret set in 2017. If they'd come onstage to an empty tent with no c**t there there's no way they'd have been booked to headline this year.

[The Nal]

Wait till you see how busy the field is for the Killers though.

[CaledonianGonzo]

I'd need to be nearby to see it.

I'm not sure.  Am thinking may not be their full 3+ hour ones that they do on their own tours but maybe similar length of time they played at BST last year which was around the 2 and quarter/ 2 and a half hour mark

@FloorFiller Lemme know when the tenner to charity has gone in mate, and I'll see you down the front for Brandon and the lads.

Never in a million years thought I’d be losing this bet this early ? Will take care of it when I’m back from work later today.

With no Noel Gallagher announcement, do we think he could be doing the Friday morning legend secret slot on the Other? He said somewhere in an interview that he would want to play early so he can enjoy the weekend. Liam has played it with Beady Eye, Charlatans have done it, Blondie ... It would fit.
