Other Stage

I wanna see Chvrches headline Other (personal preference - they did a great job of subbing New Order in 2016. Not sure by June 2019 they would be put that high up though). I reckon The Streets is also a good shout. Then maybe either someone like The Vaccines or an older, more 'legendary' act. Or GAGA.

Chvrches last album seems to have tanked, so JP is probably the only stage they could headline. The Vaccines are also back to playing academies, hard to believe they made it to arenas on the second album. So think they're likely to appear halfway up the other stage again, similar to 2016.

@eFestivals Neil do you know if Chems are down as exclusive for APE? Would that rule them out of headlining the Other? Probably not too likely anyway given how recently they did it.

nothing is claimed as exclusive by APE.

As Nick (emily'#s hubby) is Chems manager, take it as a given that Glasto have first claim on them if they want them.

Cheers Neil! It'll be interesting to see the relationship the two festivals have this year since they're so close together and going for some similar types of acts.

Not any more recent than their usual 4-5 year gaps between playing.

I actually looked and Chemical brothers last appearances are:

2007

2011

2015

2019?

Exactly 4 years each time.

Combined with the management connection mentioned above I would make them my lock of the week to appear. Get Hot Chip on as well, both brilliant UK bands that bring the party every time.

    • I see, well even if they aren't on sale it's still not a disaster sales wise, it's not like they are struggling to sell a half capacity areana
    • Blue dot wouldn’t be a thing if Ticketmasters dynamic pricing went down as well as up, it proves that the dynamic pricing was just a scam to make more money rather than something that moved with the market supply/demand. 
    • I agree that we’ll never really know up until the concert happens (and even then we still may not know) but I think promoters are having to come up with new tactics to combat ‘blue dot fever’ (already hating that phrase!) and trying to imply that concerts are selling better than they actually are / available tickets are in short supply is definitely one of them.    To add though, it is quite common at the O2 Arena for the rear blocks to not go on sale (and then remain closed for the concert and covered over to hide the empty seats). And equally common for standing to sell out first, then side/lower tier seating next and rear/upper tier seating last.    Jungle’s two concerts at the O2 are a good comparison for this - for their 1st (announced) date, all blocks are on sale and seats in all sections remain unsold, whereas for their 2nd date, the rear blocks are greyed out (more so than for Muse) and equally lots of seats remain unsold in the blue blocks. Standing for both concerts are showing as sold out.
    • MGK can and should headline. I was at one of his shows earlier in the year as a very casual fan, and there were a lot of alt people there. The show was actually class and he completely won me over. Anyone who opposes him headlining is just a gatekeeper imo, we need to move with the times.
    • Ultimately Glasto is just part of the festival circuit, however special we may think it is. The vast majority of its headliners have done many others
