august1 Posted November 17, 2019 Report Share Posted November 17, 2019 I honestly didn't get that from the documentary at all. I was on board for them to headline a few weeks ago, Don't think part 2 has enough mainstream radio appeal and their fairly modest tour still has tickets left now. I think a headliner sells it out instantly imo. I thought a strong album after Holy Fire would see them do it but follow up fell short, getting the same vibe from part 1/part 2. I think them doing the other to a smaller committed crowd will work better than twenty odd thousand stood arms crossed wanting to be proved wrong.

thrillhouse188 Posted November 18, 2019 Report Share Posted November 18, 2019 Always time for one of the others to pull out and our boys to step in, right... right? Failing that there's always the Pyramid sized Other headliner slot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

priest17 Posted November 18, 2019 Report Share Posted November 18, 2019 The real Foals headline set is the friends we made along the way. 2 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robillustrates Posted November 18, 2019 Report Share Posted November 18, 2019 If Foals aren't headlining, subbing for Macca is a pretty good consolation. I'd take that. It didn't hurt Kasabian subbing for Springsteen in the past either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wro_lap Posted November 18, 2019 Report Share Posted November 18, 2019 I’ll hold out for a Foals 2021 headline tbh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chazwwe Posted November 18, 2019 Report Share Posted November 18, 2019 Either 2021 or Other Stage. I still still think Nick 1975/Foals/nick cave for the other trio. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robillustrates Posted November 18, 2019 Report Share Posted November 18, 2019 I remember the crowd before the Stones was pretty wild, it settled down about 4 songs into the Stones though but was crazy for a good hour or so before that.

wro_lap Posted November 18, 2019 Report Share Posted November 18, 2019 I’d rather they headline 2021 than the Other in 2020 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mttJ Posted November 18, 2019 Report Share Posted November 18, 2019 I’m not particularly keen on the three Pyramid headliners being thrown about so I’d love a Foals OS headliner spot on the Sunday especially. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robillustrates Posted November 18, 2019 Report Share Posted November 18, 2019 Why the last chance? they aren't on the decline. Probable headline spot at Reading/Leeds again won't hurt them either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probable headline spot at Reading/Leeds again won't hurt them either. They aren’t on the decline but if they weren’t asked to headline 2020 with the knowledge that they had two new albums due then why would they be asked for 2021? I know next year is the 50th so they might be considered small fry headliner wise, but I doubt they’re being held back for next year, and are more likely just gonna play a lower slot, whether it be Pyramid sub again or one of the ‘big’ Other Stage headliners.

ghostdancer1 Posted November 18, 2019 Report Share Posted November 18, 2019 they're probably not going to be touring these albums into summer 2021 either TBF let's face it, headlining was always going to be a long shot. maybe if the next album is a bit more mainstream, they could make the jump and do it then. i'd imagine they're Other headliners opposite Swift or Kendrick/whoever the Friday headliner is, assuming it's not a guitar band.

D-Low Posted December 3, 2019 Report Share Posted December 3, 2019 Anyone else get an email from See over the weekend. Anyone who bought tickets seems to have free album download codes and physical copies (just pay for postage). "Please remember each unique code can only be used once to redeem a single copy of 'Everything Not Saved Will Be Lost - Part 2'. If you already own a copy please feel free to share with family, friends, colleagues or indeed anyone who needs their record collection improving!" Not seen this offered by any artists before. Decent that is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingcrawler Posted December 10, 2019 Report Share Posted December 10, 2019 They’re in France on the Friday so unless they’re up against Macca which seems unlikely then it seems unlikely that they’re an Other stage headliner. Sunday Pyramid sub? Obviously they could be up against Taylor but Noel makes more sense for that imo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
priest17 Posted December 10, 2019 Report Share Posted December 10, 2019 Nah they're still on for the secret set then headline 2 years later like The Killers did Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwedgeAntilles Posted December 10, 2019 Report Share Posted December 10, 2019 Sure someone said they spoke to Yannis a few weeks back and he said they weren't playing next year. Gotta say with that France date I think it now looks extremely unlikely they'll be there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suprefan Posted December 10, 2019 Report Share Posted December 10, 2019 And how long ago was it that it seemed to be it was looking that Foals and the 1975 were both in contention to headline and now neither might be playing at all? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure one of them was The 1975. Edit: Had a look back and it was The 1975 and Dua Lipa. Edited December 10, 2019 by kingcrawler Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
