FuzzyDunlop Posted July 12, 2019 Report Share Posted July 12, 2019 I wouldn't call ACDC a Metal band really. It's just rock n roll. Plenty of Blues inspired stuff. And Metallica were great! 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slim pickings that night, to say the least. I got real weirded out up at Dexys Midnight Runners. It's a funny place the Acoustic stage.

a6l6e6x Posted July 12, 2019 Report Share Posted July 12, 2019 AC/DC definitely aren't metal Also Metallica looked good on TV but I am a fan. Grew up playing their back catalogue on guitar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But pop acts don’t suffer from the issue metal acts do, i.e. being an acquired taste which is completely baffling to the untrained ear and likely to leave Pyramid dwellers running for their lives. So that would be silly and completely unjustified. Sure they do. Loads of people hate pop and do one as soon as any comes on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt42 Posted July 12, 2019 Report Share Posted July 12, 2019 at least we don’t have to worry about Ed Sheeran headlining any time soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FuzzyDunlop Posted July 12, 2019 Report Share Posted July 12, 2019 2014 was the last time I saw a Pyramid Headliner. Saw all 3 that year... didnt really want to watch Kasabian, but nothing else appealled. Since then, only Radiohead & Adele have interested me. I missed Adele as I didnt fancy it at the time, which was a big o.g... but I had a great night & I saw The Flaming Lips instead of Radiohead. No regrets on that as I saw them 3 months later. I would like to watch another again at some point! Regardless of it not being everything, to watch a Pyramid headliner is a special thing. After Glastonbury The main things I was asked by randoms or people from work were... "Did you watch Stormzy?".... "No" "Did you watch the Killers?"...."No" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not only did I not see him, I wasn't even aware of his existence until about a month before Glastonbury. I don't admit that obviously.

I thought he was a shit comedian until I saw an advert for his album about a month before the festival. He kept popping up on facebook etc reviewing Crisps & stuff like that.

Coachella paid them five million and they were using it as a rehearsal for their tour... Either way, it sadly won't happen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same...but for sadly reasons I've not quite yet fathomed or come to terms with, my answer to that question is also "no". I think part of the problem was that everyone of "that demographic" that was with me had already seen them. The second of two absolute clangers of headline choices this year!

We had already seen them... in fact I have now seen them 3 times on the other stage this decade, but nothing else really appealed. I had a great night, so in spite of it being a repeat booking, I can't complain. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avalon_Fields Posted July 13, 2019 Report Share Posted July 13, 2019 Certainly AC/DC rumours abound, plus Joe Walsh apparently working with Brian Johnson in London recently. Figure that one out... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FloorFiller Posted July 13, 2019 Report Share Posted July 13, 2019 Obviously there’s a chance that they might actually want to do it, but really can’t see AC/DC at all being in the running for next year. Would love to be wrong as they’re probably the only realistic ‘heavy’ act who could take that top spot, but I imagine it’ll just be a big bucks tour for them, and possibly Download if they fancy doing any festival dates.
