Haven’t been able to read this thread for a few days. Is there a succinct catch up? Please not the Strokes...

I think you just answered your own question there.

No.

 I'm more into indie than 'pure pop' but I'd take Pink, Taylor Swift, The Spice Girls and even Take That over the Strokes. If we have to have boys with guitars I'd also prefer Foals, whilst not really at that level, at least they would give a sh*t about it. I don't think The Strokes would.

I understand wanting to see Pink or Taylor Swift (tswizzle would be amazing tbf). 

But you’d rather see the Spice Girls or Take That? Are you sure? 

I think you’re doing them a bit of a disservice here, they’re not that bad.

Hahaha. Where’s the laughing emoji upvote when you need it

Is Gaga's Enigma show a lift and shift production that would be doable somewhere else or is it very intricate / site-specific?  Cos there isnt the time to rustle up something unique for the G.

Aye, we were very much looking forward to Gorillaz, but didn't get drawn in by the show and we chipped off somewhere else part way through.

She rustled up a unique show for Coachella in 2 months after Beyonce dropped out.

[CaledonianGonzo]

Though this time she's only got two weeks.

If The Strokes get announced for APE, can they really go onto headline? or is it firmly one or the other?

They would do well to sell it out at £70(approx), and I can't see the Glastonbury lineup being any later than late March this year, so that affects them being able to shift tix, which APE would not sign up for… surely.

Nick Cave, Catfish, Christine, The National, The XX… all sub-headline level acts for Pyramid really

I was just thinking the same thing. Also it makes The Strokes playing Glasto a bit less special (to me at least) if they're playing other UK dates..

I think sub-headline would be generous for Catfish but I suppose they have a new album out in April so more material for a longer set. Plus they've played Other a couple of times now so makes sense I guess. I'd go see that set anyway so no complaints from me.

Lift and shift is debatable. Show is on a fans YouTube

Fuck it. All she needs is a piano.

Miami Steve’s revue is superb. One of my gigs of last year.

[Ollie 1995]

What's the consensus on Tame Impala? Or have they been ruled out already?

New album in the pipeline plus they're touring Europe in the summer. Free on Glasto weekend..

That it would make The Strokes look like a good booking in comparison.

[Mash011]

I mean as far as I know Tame Impala are headlining every festival they're playing on the planet this year, aren't they? You're going to have to pull out some shenanigans with single sales or whatever to say they they're not at least bigger than Stormzy. They've admittedly not made the jump over here yet but with another album coming you'd think it's only a matter of time.

[faymondo]

I think I would rather Chic headlined than some of the names being touted. 

[Hugh Jass]

General population’s reaction to hearing The Strokes have been booked:

”Really? They’re still going?”

General population’s reaction to Tame Impala:

”Who?”

When they know full well who Tame Impala are.

 

Fcking gammons.

[CaledonianGonzo]

Tame Impala would be the first Glastonbury headliners that even their own mothers would struggle to recognise.

Can't wait fella, bought the live CD set and now kicking myself for not going to the Liverpool show.
