I have no idea if this is actually something they would consider tbh though, really I just can't get my prediction to fit together anymore when I swap Chems and Streets That still seems like a stupidly high booking to me, especially given the other options available (Vampire Weekend, Janet Jackson, The Strokes etc.) but I guess it could happen. Someone very early on said The Streets were offered Pyramid Sub or Other Header. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My friday headliner is normally my "main" headliner. That would do it. Im expecting an older act though. Soneone like kool & the gang.

Phoenix Girl Posted February 15, 2019 Report Share Posted February 15, 2019 There are literally so many good names being touted around, I really hope they’re all slotted in. It’ll be one hell of a line up. Actually cant believe you might not be going @dentalplan . That seems crazy talk. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe Silk City too? (Though I currently have them subbing the Other) Although their music is quite different I feel like having both Robyn and Janelle headline WH in one year may be a bit one note. Expecting an electronic headliner now that we have the other two (hip-hop and pop) nailed down, but who knows? Guess it all depends on who's around. Orbital could still be the Sunday if we're assuming Chems are the Saturday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kingbadger Posted February 15, 2019 Report Share Posted February 15, 2019 Ahh man I was so on board the Hot Chip for Friday WH train. It's the missus first Glastonbury and she's definitely gonna want to watch The Killers. Nightmare as I missed their 2015 set for Super Furries. I reckon they might be on at the same time as Chems though. Would split the crowd a bit more, I still think they're too big for The Park stage as it is currently. Also given the lack of hip hop booked at the festival, I can't see them clashing Wu and The Streets. Granted they're not that similar but it seems odd to have 2/3 biggest stages headlined by Hip Hop when it's usually only featured on 1, if none of those 3 stages at any one time.

Mattymooz Posted February 15, 2019 Report Share Posted February 15, 2019 Also I would imagine Killers & Streets and Cure & Chems have a reasonable crossover anyway just from being similar eras Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whilat probably not far off, there is nowt for me to be really hyped for there. Seen Chems, Wu Tang & Orbital before. I'd probably be Friday: Hopkins / Glade / A random Stage / SE Corner, Sat: Chems Sunday: Janelle or Orbital Edited February 15, 2019 by FuzzyDunlop Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I must admit I'm not exactly thrilled at the prospect of my own prediction either, but I've kind of come to terms with the fact that I'm not gonna be blown away with the headliners this year, or at least I'm not expecting to be. Fingers crossed for at least one totally out of the blue addition though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jon Hopkins surely won't be headlining WHs. That is one boring Friday, Saturday is easy and so is Sunday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There’s loads of hip hop. Last year they had Nadia Rose, Run the Jewels, Loyle Carner and BBNG clashing. Not all Wu Tang fans are gonna be Streets fans and certainly vice versa. Keeping them apart makes zero sense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingcrawler Posted February 15, 2019 Report Share Posted February 15, 2019 I’m also expecting the remaining West Holts headliner to be an electronic act but could The Roots be an option? They’re in Europe the two weekends after Glastonbury so they’re possibly around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

srb Posted February 15, 2019 Report Share Posted February 15, 2019 No Mr Meth here, but a Young DB. Will clearly be a heavier performance on WH - hope all or at least vast majority turn up and on point as they are topping the show Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Suppose they could always end up on the Pyramid instead like we seem to predict at some point every year. As I said, I agree about an electronic act being more likely, especially if they’re not having one on the Other stage that might. I’m all for it being Jon Hopkins although a Tame Impala clash would be frustrating. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
