The S*n on S*nday bases itself upon rumours and she a) won’t be big enough to headline the pyramid and b) Neil has information to say it will be Stormzy, The Cure and The Killers. That paper does have a good record with Glastonbury and I reckon she will turn up, maybe sub. But not headline. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like who is going to turn at to watch her sub?, it's a definite that you could put Ariana or Miley in that place and people will care more but the same could be said for Nick Cave.

priest17 Posted March 3, 2019 Report Share Posted March 3, 2019 The Jacksons were awful. Worst headliner I've seen at Glastonbury. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thesecretingredientiscrime Posted March 3, 2019 Report Share Posted March 3, 2019 (edited) If they were to get Janet, it would be a massive deal. She’s played in the UK three times in the past 20 years, and obviously never done a UK festival. By the time The Jacksons were playing, they were playing anywhere and everywhere. She would have to go on Pyramid, for publicity reasons for one. Edited March 3, 2019 by thesecretingredientiscrime Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CaledonianGonzo Posted March 3, 2019 Report Share Posted March 3, 2019 Two chances of Janet playing WH and one of them is buckley's. In 'funny coincidence' news, the bloke who did The Jackson's sound is a friend of someone I used to work with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not doubting her success, but her booking would be more 'here's someone for you to swat up on' than 'here's someone we'll know you'll enjoy'.

incident Posted March 3, 2019 Report Share Posted March 3, 2019 6 minutes ago, crazyfool1 said: I will receive my judgement as I couldn't .... maybe fortunately There was 2 different sound problems. Firstly, that anyone in the back half of the field could barely hear anything. Secondly though, even if you made it to the front part and could hear it, the vocals were mixed so low that they might as well have not been there. Hugely disappointing.

But no one would see it as massive I doubt?, she did however tour here back when she was something big enough to be at least 3rd Pyramid and being American may well push her to sub. Many others I'd rather have mind as unless you're old enough to really know her it's not a big deal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That may be right, it’ll still be a massive deal though. The attention it’s got already shows it. It’s already been in national press several times and not even be confirmed yet. Regardless of how good her performance is, I suspect her name on the poster will get the most reaction to it, especially if the other two headliners are as rumoured.

I was on the front barrier and the sound was dreadful there. So looking forward to see some of my idols from my childhood. Wish I was at the Foos now.
