Tommy101 Posted February 22, 2019 Report Share Posted February 22, 2019 Historically Victorious has had relatively short set times, if they gave the Cure a usual slot it'd be less than a half of what they are normally on stage for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am also pretty sure global have never booked the cure before. Hyde park= AEG appears that even the festivals in Europe they are playing are not global festivals. This does not, of course, rule them out but bands do tend to stick with the same bookers. I would love it if it were the cure, but my head says it won’t happen.

Headliners seem to get the 90 mins set length. Even when Madness set length was revealed as 50 mins or whatever they still ended up playing 90. But yeah I know the Cure play a lot longer. Mumford at APE takes them out the running. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tbf Victorious used to only give headliners 75 minutes, I think it extended recently. I don't see what's holding Catfish back though especially as if they are doing Glastonbury it's a chance to cash in before people think are bigger it they are there anyway.

KBR1991 Posted February 24, 2019 Report Share Posted February 24, 2019 Not saying they won’t headline but they did it with good vibrations last year and it turned out Brian Wilson didn’t headline... we shall see. Probably is headline most likely Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spigley Posted February 24, 2019 Report Share Posted February 24, 2019 New Order Definitely headlining, announcing Tuesday with rest of acts. No other major acts to announce. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No other major acts to announce. Which virtually means Catfish are almost certainly at Glasto. I also think there's a chance given how close Sziget is to Reading for a secret set early on from them followed by the headline set next year.

KBR1991 Posted February 24, 2019 Report Share Posted February 24, 2019 Could that hint be at the cure? On Twitter in January they posted no blue Monday’s here... Monday’s blue.... the cure? They could do the Sunday with their schedule. Just wishful thinking but it’s defo the cure or new order. Probably new order. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FestivalJamie Posted February 24, 2019 Report Share Posted February 24, 2019 (edited) 36 minutes ago, maxdillon7 said: would be my best guess for headliner, i’d say catfish (with them probably playing glasto and surprise show at reading) Not sure where Catfish playing a surprise set at Reading has come from, although I may be wrong? Seems like Catfish are much more focussed on their Arena tour this year(to me anyway) than playing many festivals. Definitely think they will be at Glastonbury though. Could see them headlining this, but not sure if they will play it as they seem to be doing minimal festivals. Edit: Just read above, New Order seem to be pretty much bang on headlining the Sunday anyway.

luckysalt Posted February 25, 2019 Report Share Posted February 25, 2019 Victorious did not have New Order booked as headliner. Maybe they've got the gig now but it wasn't the original plan. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ive been on these boards a long time, hell of a long time, 20 years I think and in that time I've gave info on all kinds of fests, Reading, V, Soni, Download etc, there's always people who doubt you and end of the day it becomes a fucking nightmare on here arguing with people who are determined to find error in what you give people. I get excited about line ups like everyone, we are all paying money for these things, you want some bang for your buck and the sooner you know stuff the better equipped you are to make a decision if you're going somewhere or somewhere else. I've never gave info on here looking for glory or a rep, I'd like to think my track record, especially with long term users on here has given me a rep I don't provide false info looking for some likes or whatever, in fact I rarely get likes on here, no big deal. Last December I came these boards its on page 3, I said Rudimental are headlining, everyone either ignored or shit on it, I was told the info at the time The Specials were announced and as they were billed as a Co-headliner, I was told Rudimental are the other headliner, so I took it as the co headliner, turned out they were the Saturday headliner, I didn't question they could be because I didn't think they would be given that slot based on previous line ups structures but hey there you go. Most times when you get info it becomes more of a pain in the ass than helpful, I just stopped looking for info, this year i've asked a little because I wasn't sure I was going, decision was made we are going, so I don't really care, but I know New Order wasn't originally a headliner, as far as I know right now, I don't either know if they are headlining, they may sub, they may not even be playing [although it looks very likely they are!] im not fussed, Im going anyway, my ticket is paid for so whatever gets announced gets announced. What im trying to say is, if someone gives me info then fine thank you, but sometimes its much more fun to wait and see what gets announced when it does. But above all else, if someone trusts me with info I would never share that info or break that confidence unless they said yeah they don't care, share it. Hope you're going and like the line up sean, you've been a good user on this Victorious msg board even though you've been really quiet this year! Hope everyone else likes the line up too! 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
