Doug85 Posted October 2, 2018 Report Share Posted October 2, 2018 I think people are overlooking Snow Patrol for either of these spots. Touring until Feb so not out of the question they will be doing festivals in the summer. Subbing Pyramid or Headlining other would be about their level IMO.

Haven’t heard anything of them in years Had a long time off since 2013 i think? Family time and then writing a new album, new album hasn't done that badly and was well reviewed. Tour starts in December and a lot of sold out arena's already so still big enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The problem is that now he's apparently been booked as Coachella headliner, he is now in that top tier of artists and will most likely be expecting to either get a certain amount of money (which I imagine would be more than Glastonbury would be willing to pay) or headline the one of the biggest stages, which again Glastonbury wouldn't give him. I cant think of many Coachella headliners in recent years who have played Glastonbury and not headlined, Phoenix is the only one I can think of, I may well be wrong though. Similar thing happened with Frank Ocean and Aphex Twin recently. Both were booked to headline big European/US festivals, such as Primavera sound, and then supposedly when Glastonbury approached them to play further down the bill they refused as thought they deserved a higher slot. Childish Gambino is undoubtedly one of the weakest Coachella headliners in a while, which makes me think there would possibly be a chance he'd take a lower slot at Glastonbury but unless he has a real desire to play the festival, something few modern acts from the United States do, then I'd be very surprised if he played as the money would be nowhere near what he's getting for Coachella. I'd like to see it happen but I'd be surprised, depends how much he wants to do it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dentalplan Posted October 2, 2018 Report Share Posted October 2, 2018 Unforgettable, one might say. But really, yeah, I think him playing Coachella and now possibly being headline or nothing is way down the list of reasons Gambino won't play. Top being his retirement, second being that he's likely gonna be promoting the massive film he's starring in during mid-summer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mufcok Posted October 3, 2018 Report Share Posted October 3, 2018 Not seen much, if any, mention of the Chemical Brothers yet which I find surprising. Coming up to 4 years and new material, they're due again. Can see them being all over 2020 though 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coming up to 4 years and new material, they're due again. Can see them being all over 2020 though Sure to put on a good show, but the last single is a bit Chemical Brothers by the numbers. Seems like they dusted off one of their old sample disks and thought "that'll do", especially at the start. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can see them being all over 2020 though They'll certainly appear one of the two years but I think that next year is more likely now that they've started trailing new music. Would imagine they'll want to play while their new album is fairly fresh rather than holding it off for the anniversary. Plus five years is arguably too long without any Chemical Brothers.

Gucci Piggy Posted October 9, 2018 Report Share Posted October 9, 2018 Post Malone as a Pyramid sub? Was thinking he'll probably headline Wireless but he's played the last two years and I can't see any recent examples of them having a headliner who appeared the previous year. Just announced a big ass arena tour. Can't stand him like, but you know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was thinking the bar for Pyramid subs had got significantly higher recently: apart from The Libertines which doesn’t count, there hasn’t been a properly naff one since Primal Scream in ‘13. But then I remembered that the common consensus is that Liam shitting Gallagher is doing it this year so never the fuck mind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By the time you've heard it's him and trekked there it's too late and he is gone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
