Think they’re more likely to headline the other stage.

they've never been more than that.

Fair one thought that had gone up to sr or tbc when the info about the other stage & pyramid subs came out last week.

I don’t recognise much of the music or many of the names, but there seems to be a shortage of vowels amongst the young people today

Juice WRLD, Yungblud, PVRIS

 

[Mardy]

who’s stealing all of the vowels? Billie Eilish, by the looks of things

Too much time spent sat watching Countdown if you ask me.

A lot of them do it so they’re easier to find in search engines, some think it looks cool as well

Did we discuss this?

It’s been discussed. We’re all on denial about it.

Makes no difference seeing as 1. They're in Belgium on the day we think Macca may have pulled out of, and 2. They were already in the area so moving those dates to June doesn't mean anything.

No that’s not true

information has pointed to Cure being on Saturday right? Mumfords are playing RW on the Saturday so they could play Sunday.

also didn’t that twitter user say Saturday headline was the cure?

i don’t want it to be Mumfords but don’t discard them just because you don’t like them. I’d say they are more likely (and cheaper) as a back up booking opposed to pulling Gaga out of nowhere.

Just when I thought I couldn’t dislike them more, they sign off as M&S.

And didnt Nail have info on a "band" being approached, which he'd initially discarded as he thought headliners were confirmed and now is questioning....

I'm not discarding them as I don't like them. I actually wanted the third headliner to be someone i don't want to see because I don't want three nights at the Pyramid.

Based on tour dates it seemed more likely that The Cure would be on Sunday than Macca, and then Twitter girl's info said The Cure Sat and Macca Sun but someone on here on the same day said they'd specifically heard that Glastonbury's Saturday headliner has pulled out. So yeah we have info of him on either day, so it's 50/50 if you just base it on that, but when I take into account tour dates I'd say it's more likely that he was the Saturday headliner. But yeah, that's not a definite.

Edit: And Twitter girl said it's a solo act who was a massive surprise and she thinks they may turn it down. Mumford and Sons don't fit that at all.

Bunch of peeps here have heard The Cure for Sunday as well. No ones actually heard Saturday apart from jenniferaliceee.

[Matt42]

Yeah so there’s conflicting info.

anyone considered that maybe McCartney pulled out a while ago and it’s actually Stormzy that was maccas replacement?

would fit the info she had about a solo act filling in to replace? Then they just did a day shift and put Stormzy on the Friday?

we have no idea when the McCartney pull out happened? Could have been a while ago as Neil said that info is quite old

have they? I've only seen reasoned guesses.

Yeah, a few posters have had texts off friends who know these things saying ‘Fri-Stormzy, Sat-McCartney, Sun-The Cure’. A big deal wasn’t made of them because we were already zeroed in on that outcome.

Saw them in Glasgow last night.  If it’s any consolation the banjo has been ditched for more than a few songs, maybe not headliner material but certainly entertained the crowd.

Considering how Storm Z had been teasing his announcement a while back, seems unlikely that's the case.

that seems very unlikely. Stormzy instagrammed at the end of the summer, and it's pretty clear now he was booked as headliner back then.

the longer ago that Macca pulled out (if he was in so that he could pulled out), the stranger it is that there's no one saying that he's pulled out apart from twitter girl.
