matichin Posted October 13, 2019 Report Share Posted October 13, 2019 (edited) So now that the headliner chat has become a bit more settled after the insanity of suggesting that Led Zep would reform for the 50th festival celebrations (thought that dream is not yet dead...) What absurdity can we conjure up for this slot again? Wasn't there speculation from Neil that 2019 didn't get booked but that the 2020 act was already in the frame and was massive? Or has that been debunked? Edited October 13, 2019 by matichin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously things can always go wrong and the act they had might’ve bailed, but as it stands we’re still expecting a bigger than usual act for this.

stonedcircle Posted October 13, 2019 Report Share Posted October 13, 2019 (edited) System of a Down seems oddly plausible, could see it going down a storm ? Edited October 13, 2019 by stonedcircle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chazwwe Posted October 13, 2019 Report Share Posted October 13, 2019 Have seen a few people floating around about The Kinks playing, so I'd be good with that. Would rather a heavier act in the line of Motorhead though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CraigFR Posted October 13, 2019 Report Share Posted October 13, 2019 The Offspring are in Europe. Have played the festival before and seem the right size for the slot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kingbadger Posted October 13, 2019 Report Share Posted October 13, 2019 Still think it might be a Metallica 'special guests' slot. Lars loves the festival and will be there as a punter, could see him volunteering their services well in advance given the band doing it have been signed up for ages.

balti-pie Posted October 13, 2019 Report Share Posted October 13, 2019 If ever I get to hear Painkiller being smashed out on the pyramid field, I swear I will commit an act of celebratory onanism that will be so euphoric, my head will come clean off.

Andy0808 v5 Posted October 13, 2019 Report Share Posted October 13, 2019 Offspring would be nice, I don’t listen to them anymore. But I passed on them at Reading (2012?), thinking they’d play Reading again and I’d see them.. little did I know I would get tickets to Glasto 2013 and no longer want to attend Reading.

henry bear Posted October 13, 2019 Report Share Posted October 13, 2019 It’s going to be something like Priest or Def Leppard isn’t it? An act that a Glasto crowd will know at least a few songs. Priest had proper hits and were on TOTP. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danbailey80 Posted October 13, 2019 Report Share Posted October 13, 2019 (edited) Looking at their setlists I can't think of more of a feast then Prophets of Rage. Don't seem to be touring though.
