Ah man, that would've been a great way to spend Saturday night

Depends on the set times, sometimes there’s quite a big overlap, sometimes there’s barely any. There’d likely be a huge migration after LG though.

Yep, was just thinking that this has to make the Liam G Saturday info a bit doubtful? Can't imagine they'd do this. Even though they don't perfectly overlap in terms of time slots, it would kill the Courteeners set, surely.

They also said it was for the Saturday night.

Everyone on here knows I am not in the know in any way at all

well, you obviously are, if only a little bit.  

[Keithy]

stick The Cure on the Other Stage headliner and smash the 'break glass incase of emergencies' box and make the call to Gaga for Pyramid Saturday night.

[uscore]

Been in meetings all day and just opened up efests only to find out the completely tragic news that the Courteneers are booked to play.

Just a shame my one little bit of gossip is attached to such tragic circumstances ?

Surely if The Cure are saturday pyramid they'd have 3 hours which would easily cover other headliner and sub, no?

Potentially. The Cure both being on Saturday and getting 3 hours are 2 big ifs though.

It did when that Libertines secret gig happened, and come to think of it when everyone had to leave early to see arctic monkeys in 2013! 

[Matt42]

Tame Impala, The Prodigy, The Chemical Brothers would have been fucking awesome i think it would be the first year I’d totally sack off the pyramid!

Am I right in thinking that puts the Chems - should they play - on Sunday?

Who knows as everyone thought The Streets were headlining 1 night.

Haha wow. That's an incredibly unfortunate run for them. Liam G would surely have the biggest crossover of the lot though (though I suppose AM headlining is a much bigger draw than Liam G solo).

Chems at eden project friday night, so hopefully that means tame impala rumour is good, I'd rather the Streets sub stormzy than potentially be the other stage headliner that night, will be gutted if the other stage headliner for friday is naff(for me at least)

If previous times are an indicator they'd be starting as Liam G was finishing so it'd be dead to begin with then fill up.

[jyoung]

Not keen on the idea of The Streets on the Pyramid.

That always seemed a bigger slot than they warranted. 

[Hugh Jass]

Streets subbing Chems seems about right.

Probably gonna be the busiest Chems crowd in a long time at Glastonbury if they’re up against The Cure, and they always pull a huge crowd.

Ha it seems they're destined for half of their crowd to not be there for half their set most times.

sounds like it to me, but i'm only (intuitively) guessing.

Any more news or likely placings recently Neil? Seems to have gone a bit quiet.

Nah cos we had word before today that TDCC and C&TQ were Other subs. Courteeners on the middle pin puts Two Door Friday and Christine Sunday.

Also we’ve heard before that The Streets were offered Other head or Pyramid sub, so I’d be inclined to think the latter if the former is/was all booked up.
