He's one of the biggest (if not the biggest) solo acts in the world right now, his last festival gig was headlining Glasto, surely they cant believe that theyre too big to sub him... They are in effect subbing him, ‘co-headlining’ is just marketing, even with this daft dual stage thing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don’t think it’d be too bad considering with post most likely to have a new album out by then and also Queens Would still think two years is too soon for Post. Unless he does the Nirvana set in full, in which case, that booking has my blessing. They'd need a bigger "veteran" headliner instead of him I think, a Foos/Muse/Metallica/RHCP/Green Day sized act.

Doesn't make sense. It does, pretty sure the only thing he’s released since he last headlined is his Nirvana stuff, none of which he played last time. His setlist May be incredibly similar to last year, if he does Nirvana covers thats completely different Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, but he only played 3 songs off it according to setlist.fm so definitely didn't play more songs from Hollywood's Bleeding than his other two. And the statement that I was replying to claimed he hasn't released anything other than Nirvana covers since last time, which isn't true.

They are but they're last on their stage and closing their stage and R&L have given them headliner status as 1 of 6 headliners. I know they are basically subbing or co-headlining anyway but I think to be billed as a headliner is something their agent has probably pushed as since Catfish started headlining the smaller festivals they've not done R&L even though they fit the crowd perfectly and are a band that I always see people wanting on twitter etc. I'm not so sure they'd accept a sub slot under anyone even Stormzy otherwise why weren't they booked in 2020 but we had Migos instead?

WhoOdyssey Posted September 3, 2020 Report Share Posted September 3, 2020 3 hours ago, BeddingatReading said: I still think Catfish were only booked to replace someone who pulled out, they were sure they'd say yes as a last minute booking. I don't see any other reason why they'd book someone who are headlining some considerably smaller festivals. Van said on Radio 1 that they found out they'd be headlining at the start of lockdown, so surely that wouldn't mean they were last-minute with all that time after?

Always fun to see live A much as I'd love to see them again I don't think we'll hear anything from them for a while. Laurie's wife passed away earlier last year leaving him with two young kids to take care of. He seems to be prioritizing spending time with them over studio time even with his new solo stuff which is of course completely fair.

You're right he definitely said that. I reckon they were pencilled in for 2021 anyways (possibly a new album out by then?) and with RATM seemingly not available (completely guessing they weren't tbf) it makes sense to keep them.
