During this song the lads standing next to me got down on the floor and started doing press-ups through the whole song.

The last time they played, they were on the Other at about half 2. That’s where I’d expect Don Broco.

priest17 Posted February 12, 2019 Report Share Posted February 12, 2019 I'm sure White Lies were on later than that on Other in '09. Feel like I watched them then went and saw The Specials.following that logic they'll... open Other? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt42 Posted February 12, 2019 Report Share Posted February 12, 2019 My friend went to don at Wembley the other night and I was shocked at the size of the crowd. I know virtually nothing about them and I didn’t realise they were that big! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Martin Ashford Posted February 13, 2019 Report Share Posted February 13, 2019 My guess is that the slot will be filled by Slayer. They are perfectly happy to play two or even three slots from the top and currently they are on the best form anyone can comprehend. They are at Download earlier in June so probably doing Euro dates. It would absolutely make my weekend if they play because currently I am NOT feeling the vibe as much as I should be. Bearded Theory has got a far better set of headliners which is saying something. A festival that can boast Kylie and Slayer on the same stage gets my vote any day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
balti-pie Posted February 13, 2019 Report Share Posted February 13, 2019 Slayer would of course be utterly amazing, because I love em and they’re brilliant and it would also make for lots of confused Pyramid denizens, but it ain’t happening. They’re a Download exclusive and it’s also billed as their last UK show. Shame, cos they were great in November ???? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nah, it a genre that is overrun with cliched guff, none are more plodding, cock waving, spandexed, socks down the trousers, finger pointingly cliched as Saxon. I'll admit to liking And The Bands Played On but that's it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

henry bear Posted February 13, 2019 Report Share Posted February 13, 2019 I’d have thought whoever’s doing this slot must have some crossover appeal. Motörhead, ZZ Top and Royal Blood are all popular acts that have had hits that people know. Some of the names bandied about on here seem rather unlikely; hopefully it will be (finally) Iggy.

Yeah, rock/metal slot though it may be, it's still third down the Pyramid - they're not gonna start throwing technical death metal or grindcore on there. Honestly, outside of Iggy I'm struggling to think who else it could realistically be who's touring this year so hopefully that's a positive sign that it is him, even if he isn't exactly active around that time (as far as we know).

danbailey80 Posted March 8, 2019 Report Share Posted March 8, 2019 Any more news about this? Really hoping for, Prophets of Rage, Alice in Chains, Smashing Pumkpins etc as opposed to a band everyone pretends to like 'ironically' (ZZ top, Slayer, etc.) or an act where everyone's waiting for one song (Iggy Pop). 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd guess you mean Lust for Life, but he usually either opens with it, or plays it early on, so there wouldn't be much waiting around. He's a legend and still a great performer, he'd be perfect for a Pyramid slot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
