Interesting, usually for a Gallagher you get a roll with it.

Surely he’d draw too big a crowd to the Other for that time of day?

maybe, tho he's been playing lots of shows to fields far smaller this summer.

I dont think its impossible, anyway.

Excellent- all the more space to watch Hobo Jones at Avalon then!

True, but 99% of Glastonbury punters will know who Noel Gallagher is and with nothing of note against him at 11am you could see the majority descending on the Other to hear DBIL.

Very good

yeah, but it says 'next year', and that's 2019.

Noel has said he wants to play next year, and it seems to confirm that he is.

Next year could have been 2020 as many refer now to 2019 being this year coming. Could be taken both ways...if he is accepting of a slot the festival are happy with though and he said he wants to play. It's a big act for them to be able get to open Other though

Don't Back in Langer?

No chance of him doing the opening Other slot, in my opinion. I know he's said about playing Friday and then going on the lash or something but I don't think he really thinks like that and could well have other tour dates to consider over the weekend. 

Plus logistically, as you say, it is a terrible fit. The guy's ego will barely fit in that field, never mind the vast majority of punters onsite.

The only non-headline slots he's done as NGHFB in the UK have been supporting U2, supporting Stone Roses and supporting Bruce Springsteen (who I don't think he's praised as much as the other two, but probably respects all the same) so I can't see him going "yeah the Beady Eye slot, I'll have a bit of that". Think he'd only accept subbing McCartney or, at a push, The Cure to finally have gotten him to play.

[SwedgeAntilles]

Given how rammed Liam's crowd was when there was lots on elsewhere I can't see them putting Noel on there when there's nowt on elsewhere.

I tend to agree that Noel is 2020 as in the full dicussion when 'next year' was mentioned it was said that, for example, Fleetwood Mac were not this year.

This wasn't to do with Emily's discussion though. It was the email Neil got at the start of the Stormzy thread.

Against Katy Perry, wasn't it?

But yeah. On the same day as Liam is on site and playing, you're gonna have the reunion optimists as well. I'd love to say it'd be a great time to see someone at another stage in a more intimate setting but I'd be in the mosh at the Other Stage too.

[mufcok]

He said something on Talksport about wanting that slot didn't he because he wants to 'enjoy' the rest of the weekend? I could see him doing it hut as mentioned above, the crowd could get daft at that time

Ah OK, though looking at that 'next year' is very explicit compared to the rest of it that seems to be talking about the here and now. We shall see before long.

Yeah if they're talking about 2019 for Noel it seems like a weird way of putting it. Would make much more sense to say "Noel Gallagher is playing, too" or something. Sounds like 2020 to me.

That's the one, you not heard it?

Aye. I think it's just as things are termed. He did say on radio he'd probably be put 4th down but the slot he'd like is opening Other so if they can get someone his size opening that then fair. Tbh the only thing stopping from being down to the Mancis etc size that would get that now is who he is. But I imagine Noel and Liam the same day would also create great publicity for the fest.

Yes this was my exact thinking. Or “Noel Gallagher is also playing next year” unless they were just typing fast and missed out an “also”

[Gucci Piggy]

If Noel Gallagher genuinely does want to play at 11am and they think the Other Stage would be too crowded then just do it on the Pyramid instead.

Good shout

[Crazyfool01]

I've never seen any act pack out that field for the other opening slot and ive seen quite a few since 2002 .... maybe he would fill it... but I don't think so
