buffy394 Posted January 11, 2019 Report Share Posted January 11, 2019 What did you think of their Leeds set? I thought it was distinctly average with Julian messing up timings and lyrics. Serious cba attitude. And im a fan! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought it was naff, and I was a 16 year old obsessed with The Strokes who at the time thought every gig I went to was amazing, so it must have been bad. Was a similar disappointment to Jack White at Glasto in 2014. I'd probably see them again in the hope that they're a bit better this time around.

Superunknown Posted January 11, 2019 Report Share Posted January 11, 2019 Hope it's true. Was gonna see Macca as it'll probably be the only time I'd have a chance to see him and it's more to say I've seen him than being a massive fan and been worried about some big clashes against him. Strokes headlining would at least knock off the Pyramid Stage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kalopsia Posted January 11, 2019 Report Share Posted January 11, 2019 I met with The Voidz and Julian in October I should've asked Beardo if The Voidz are playing Glasto as they're everywhere The Strokes are. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would say he’s heard it from someone he knows and is just repeating the info just like one of us would. If someone at the BBC had told him, it would be 100% true and he wouldn’t have said it as he would have got a slap on the wrist. errr, didn't a BBC website literally publish the wrong headliner for 2017 seemingly based on rumours online?

(that incident was put down to simple cock-up by the individual involved. It happens). Edited January 11, 2019 by eFestivals Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shoptildrop Posted January 11, 2019 Report Share Posted January 11, 2019 Could The Strokes be a possible Other stage headliner, or is that too damaging to their rep? As would prefer to see them on that stage than Pyramid tbh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They'd already be acting out of character by taking the lower fee that Glasto pays, and I doubt they'd bother doing that for anything other than Pyramid headline. Plus all the rumours we've heard about them say they're headlining Pyramid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mufcok Posted January 11, 2019 Report Share Posted January 11, 2019 I could POSSIBLY see them subbing. They 'co-headlined' when I saw the at Leeds, with Pulp. Certainly couldn't see Other Stage happening Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sadly, they'd have to cut down massively on the usual 10 from Is This It (yes I know that's evidence that they're overly reliant on an 18 year old album but I've never seen them and it's one of my favourite albums of all time). Can't see it happening mind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingbadger Posted January 11, 2019 Report Share Posted January 11, 2019 The good thing is if they did play it given Vlasto's budget they would actively be wanting to do it rather than just coining the fee like other fests and shows. Would at least mean they'd be bringing their A game rather than their CBA game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OddRon Posted January 11, 2019 Report Share Posted January 11, 2019 I'm hoping they're the same nice surprise I got when The National were on the poster back in March 2017, though that sub slot was the wrong place for them so hopefully Strokes are Other stage headliner rather than Pyramid Sub Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

forjustoneday Posted January 11, 2019 Report Share Posted January 11, 2019 I've only been to two UK festivals in my time (IOW 2010 & Reading 2011) and both times the Strokes were announced after I bought my ticket. Glasto 2019 will be my third. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
