What’s the significance of the angry raccoon? 

Perhaps the organisers identify with the urban raccoon, scavenging through bins, living on scraps.

It’s probably pissed off at the inclusion of wombats on the line up.

I saw her at free show last year and thought she was phenominal. I would guarentee she'll be on the farm. 

[Gucci Piggy]

The "gender non-binary" part didn't last long then.

[dentalplan]

Lol

Yeah I’ve been putting them in my predictions for pre-Legend since I saw that date listed - think it was posted earlier in this thread actually cos I’d never have heard of them otherwise. But yeah, decent slot.

[Gucci Piggy]

They've got a song on a recent FIFA which is a decent tune but that's all I know. Was gonna say pre-legend seems too big a slot but at the same time I didn't realise they were big enough to be playing Ally Pally, so yeah.

Sold out 3 nights at Brixton last month too. Clearly you don’t need a binary gender, or a sensible name, to be popular.

Damnit, I need to try harder, I didnt even think but I'm a jerk.

Doing better than most of the country who seem to just turn their nose up at it all

Pink announcing Euro shows on Tuesday and judging by her announcement video of the announcement, there's definitely a London gig. Given her size, she'd be a big, BIG sub these days (I'd honestly consider her headliner material) but expecting she'll go where the money is.

BST/TRNSMT/Manchester open-air show.

To be fair she's definitely got the back catalogue to make for a great headline show ( in my opinion).

The Good, the Bad and the Queen are gearing up for a new album and have just changed their pictures on social media. Shoe-in for Glastoconsidering Damon's affinity with the festival IMO.

She also does a decent job of Bohemian Rhapsody, which would surely go down a storm at the Pyramid for fans and non fans alike.

Non-fans, and even some fans, just pissed their pants laughing when Kanye rolled out Bo Rap.

Could and should 100% sub Glastonbury at least.  Sadly if she’s doing BST (which she probably is) then I very much doubt she’ll be allowed to sub a festival.

Pink was daytime fodder at V around ten years ago - fair enough she returned to headline but without researching her billings elsewhere, I'd guess that may be more down to V's plight than her stepping up.

She's as much as a Glastonbury headliner as Katy Perry imho.

Yeah this. If Pink did play Glastonbury I cant see her getting anything other than the same slot as Katy Perry, Paloma Faith, Shakira etc had before her. They're just perfect for that time of the day imo - big cheesy pop sing alongs in the (hopefully) scorching sun.

Is Pink really no better than a cheesy pop star? I always thought she had a bit of an edge, perhaps I'm just soft!

I find him dull live, but each to their own.

I saw him a couple of years back and it was the worst gig I've been to.  Totally boring, no interaction with the audience at all, everything played slowly - even bloody Layla!  It was like he didn't want to be there at all.  I said to my husband that we should have saved our money, stayed at home and played a CD.

In contrast, we saw the Who around the same time and it was a brilliant night - they seemed to be having a ball too.

Maybe cheesy was the wrong word, but I don't think she has much more of an edge than other pop stars (although she was initially portrayed as somewhat of a 'bad girl' I think that image was soon scrapped).

Ended up seeing Pink at one of her own shows like ten years ago and I've gotta say it was a lot of fun - she'd be great at Glastonbury. I don't see it happening mind as she'll probably just do her own shows/BST.
