Ezra has tunes plural and is bland af.

Capaldi has tune singular and people find him amusing. 

The latter may be enough to bump him up to headline status.....but as I said the novelty may wear off.

I reckon you’ll be proven right

The novelty may well wear off, but I’d say Capaldi is arguably a bigger “star” now than either Sheeran or Ezra at this stage of their careers.

The boy sold out two nights at the O2 in seconds recently, so the appetite right now is certainly there.

Maybe reaching here....but his deliberately unambitious and 'I'm just like one of you' vibe is the exact opposite of what the bookers of the world's biggest music festival are looking for in a headliner. I'd put faith in Emily that - even if he's doing stadiums on his own momentum - he still wouldn't meet the criteria.

Capaldi has pulled out of Trnsmt in September

Given the state of it that is to his credit

If the festival was on this year I’d be sticking him on the Sunday after Diana. If he’s touring festivals extensively next summer as part of album #2 then he may not even be about in 23. If he plays then you’re probably looking at a sub.

Sheeran is about as good a pop songwriter there has been in the last 10 years or so, I don't really think him and Capaldi are comparable outside of being young lads with guitars.

Snow Patrol are cleaning up in the “Shit we need a headliner! Who’ll do it cheap?” landscape of 2021.

I think they were already Co headlining that Saturday with the  pete tong orchestra. I think they'll be doing the kendal/y not scene next year

They are comparable, both of them (and Ezra) are ostensibly earnest young singer/songwriters who have managed to break beyond the indie/Absolute Radio scene into the mainstream proper.

That poster serves as another reminder of how far Ash’s stock has fallen.

The Friday has a clear target audience but the other days are just a mess in terms of targeting

I thought the whole thing had a pretty good ‘shite music for shit people’ targeting thing going on.

I wouldn't say this. Travis a fair few years back now are from there and only play one place higher in Tuts. It's a big tent from what I remember.

It's certainly not a great output.

Dunno when it's on sale, but as The Mill is a small place, if anyone wants to improve their chances of a ticket, go for tuesday the 22nd, as England are playing in the Euros that night.

Looks like no mandatory Covid testing for trnsmt given who is support on Friday!
