The 1975 2020

[dentalplan]

I guess their prior engagement at Lolla Sweden rules them out of stepping in for McCartney since then too. I assume you don’t just pull out of Lollapalooza like it’s nothing when they’re probably at all the Lollapaloozas.

I don't even like the 1975 that much, I just want to see MASH cry when they're announced to sub The Cure.

 

If they start opening or finishing with Love it if we Made it, I'll tag along to the start or end of the set probably.

I can’t wait for Matt Healy’s warbling tones ringing out through the pyramid field once again.

They're essentially One Direction with guitars.

Imagine starting a thread about The 1975 headlining in 2020, spending months going on about how crap The Cure are, and then The 1975 subbing The Cure in 2019.

Couldn't be me.

It’s a banger

Just when you think you couldn’t dislike them anymore .... what a load of pretentious tosh. 

(*that is these clowns putting their name to it for exposure and publicity - not the message itself which is obviously very real and disturbing).

So this thread isn’t about the festival from 1975 until 2020 then ?

Naw. Would definitely say that they’re doing this to give the spotlight to climate change, rather than using that to shine a spotlight on themselves. And when a lot of modern people need production value and entertainment for issues to get through to them, why not?

Anyway, I’m looking forward to the song ‘KONY 2019’ which I hear is the centrepiece of the album.

Skipping straight to page 14 I imagine I've missed a lot of The 1975 bashing but heres my input:

1 - I'm sure they opened their tour this year with some of the above video message
2 - Suspect I'm in a minority with this but I love The 1975 and fully believe they have reached headliner level. Would be great for 2020.

Rumour going around that the album is due for release in February 2020. Surely they must be in contention to headline.

Think all the money from this track is going to Extinction Rebellion.

Not saying it isn't pretentious but at least they're a band with an opinion and willing to voice them.

Matt Healy clearly just trying to walk it back after his recent cancellation

Looking more like next month, theyre counting down 28 days from now so might be out before Reading and Leeds

Agreed, would be brilliant headliners next year. Saw them in Jan and the show itself was unbelievably good with a next level performance.

They always said they’d need to put out something before Reading and Leeds, it’s a bit late now to release an album by then though.

I think most people believe they are a realistic proposition for next year. Have a look at the 2020 headliner thread and they feature in a lot of predictions.

They may be total horseshit, but their headline credentials are strong.

I know they wanted to have it ready by then but I cant see it. Like how do they have time to master it with all the touring they've been doing

[Matt42]

I really do think they are in the frame for the Friday headline slot
