Reckoner Posted November 14, 2019 Report Share Posted November 14, 2019 If there is one thing that I’m confident on, it’s that Emily has her finger well and truly on the pulse. RHCP whilst an all time great band, have been average for a number of years. Seconding what someone mentioned previously, they were rather ordinary in Singapore at the F1 recently. I’d be very surprised to see them be booked to headline the Pyramid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Badlands Posted November 14, 2019 Report Share Posted November 14, 2019 Whilst it’s unlikely, I’ll be unable to truly dismiss the thought of RHCP until the headliners are announced. A worrying thought. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

'You know what else won't be late? The 11:15pm train I have to catch in 45 minutes, so thanks for that.' Reminds me of going to see guns n Rose's in Newcastle when the band didn't come on stage till 10.15. To get home on time I had to leave the venue at 11.05 at the latest but decided to still get a taxi He then walked off stage without finishing the show and regret the £25 it cost me to get home Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GrumpyRaver Posted November 14, 2019 Report Share Posted November 14, 2019 (edited) Sounds like PSB announcement is just first play of a new song. Although Lauren has also confirmed they will be in the studio with her in January, so there could be something then...

FuzzyDunlop Posted November 14, 2019 Report Share Posted November 14, 2019 (edited) Chillis as a headliner for the Other is a strong booking. As a Pyramid headliner? Not for me. I dont know how popular they are with the kids, but their stock isnt really rising with my circle of friends going to Glastonbuty (who naturally speak for all 34-38 year olds) Edited November 14, 2019 by FuzzyDunlop Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C14S Posted November 14, 2019 Report Share Posted November 14, 2019 They would be one where Emily saying the Other Headliners r Pyramid Level is 100% accurate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People I would guess in early 20s going nuts for tracks from By The Way and Californication, so would have been nippers when they came out.

Matt42 Posted November 14, 2019 Report Share Posted November 14, 2019 I can only speak for myself but By The Way, Blood Sugar Sex Magik, Californiacation, Stadium Arcadium were some of the earliest albums I remember listening to. I just have zero interest in anything they’ve released after 2006. Don’t know if that’s a shared experience? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their set in September was ridiculously focussed on the By The Way/Stadium Arcadium guff. They didn't even play Under The Bridge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For me, they'd certainly fit the “pyramid level headliner on the Other’ with the added bonus that you wouldn’t be wasting the prime slot on a band that is past their best. By the way, Can't stop etc still bang, but the setlist was definitely filled with too much stuff that you'd have hoped they realise didn't hit the mark.

Stadium Arcadium can get in the bin. By The Way is a solid album for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grilladelphia Posted November 14, 2019 Report Share Posted November 14, 2019 Last time I saw them was in Hyde Park with James Brown supporting in 2004 - and from what I remember it was really fun, however I was 16.

kingcrawler Posted November 14, 2019 Report Share Posted November 14, 2019 If RHCP play then I think it will definitely be on the Pyramid. As much as we’re apparently getting bigger than usual Other stage headliners I don’t see a band who’ve been headlining festivals and playing stadiums for about two decades taking that slot. I agree with others that BST or IOW are more likely for them but their gig in Italy right in the middle of IOW weekend is a bit worrying.

I don’t think they’ve played below headline anywhere for 20 years! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
