Don't know how true it is but I've heard from a couple of sources that Kings of Leon will be this year's Pilton Party headliners

Would KOL be willing to take a lower slot at Glastonbury, as the headliners of this normally get on the bill at the festival.

Can't see them ever headlining any more and especially the 50th

Nope. Best you can hope is that they play a secret set or don’t appear at all.

As good as we’d like the anniversary to be, bands won’t be willing to toss their headline credentials into the fire just to be a part of it.

People were saying that about the Killers...

Some people were, but to be fair they were outnumbered by other people saying "Of course they can" - whereas I can't see that many people speaking up in defence of a KoL headline slot. They're quite a few notches further down the list.

KOL are definitely still headliner size, and could headline Glasto again in the future. I don't believe they'd be at the top of the list for next year though. Wasn't there info to suggest that The Killers weren't the first or second choice for Saturday night this year? I imagine it'd be the same for KOL next year.

Maybe, while here for another gig, they’re just scratching Glasto’s back for a future headline gig? Eg. 2021, after a new album is out and there to promote.

Yep, certainly feasible, perhaps as well as being on the reserve list for next year should anything go wrong with any of the headliners.

I’m going to see them in Manchester, they sound great. 

May end up going myself, saw them at Gulllivers a while ago and they were top, new album's only an improvement (which I wasn't expecting, sort of expected them to die off)

First post-Glastonbury gig booked.  Skints touring their new album, support from Bedouin Soundclash.  Not until end of Oct, but definitely don't want to miss this one!

EDIT: plus The Beths are back in the UK so off to see them in August! :)

There will be a special fan presale at 11am this Wednesday (July 17th). Pre-order the album below to get access (there's a few final signed CDs if you're quick also). You need to pre-order before 9am this Wednesday to get access and you will receive your pre-sale code via email. And don't worry...those who have already pre-ordered will automatically get access!

Not my scene but £73.50 to stand is taking the fucking piss. This has literally become the norm now. Arena's have to be the worst gig environment ever and they cost an absolutely obscene amount all for the privilege of an echoing hall with awful room acoustics and shite atmosphere.

    • What is too old for Leeds Fest now ?  I'm going to the Fontaines Saturday in a few weeks at 54 !!!  I may be the oldest there 🙂    Wythenshawe may be an option for WA.
    • Pretty much all festivals lose out on major artists because of production limitations though. Glastonbury is no different to most other festivals.  Lots of acts can/will adapt their tour production to suit festival stages if they want to play them, but some acts with stage designs and routines just don't want to adapt, and would rather just stick with a rigid, well-rehearsed production and take the money for their own gigs, whether that's a lot more than playing Glastonbury, or slightly less than playing some other festivals (but with added complications). Trying to adapt the stage, layout, access to b-stages etc to accommodate a single headliner on a Friday and then having to change it all around for a Saturday headliner isn't really a goer when most headliners can just easily adapt their show to stay on a main stage, if they're so inclined. They have a year to figure out how to perform a song on a main stage and ditch a few dance routines out on a b-stage if they really put their mind to it. It's not that difficult......
    • I would be all over Wolf Alice but may have outgrown this venue.    Also have to consider the schedule they have been on this year so may be on a break.  This last 10 days alone they did Tramlines, New York, Chicago and Kendal Calling.  Although make hay while the sun shines may come into play.
