Tommy Dickfingers Posted December 16, 2019 Report Share Posted December 16, 2019 I think part of my hatred of the RHCP is they had the audacity to have James Brown perform as their warm up. They must have made Mr. Brown one hell of an offer. For my money he’s the greatest performer of all time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nah he bullshits all the time, probably out of his own frustration and wanting to feel like people are gaining something from him, we have had Slipknot headlining from him. They well could play but based on his past its probably an attention seeking stunt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

circus92 Posted December 16, 2019 Report Share Posted December 16, 2019 (edited) This sounds a bit like some of the reactions on here - “Oh dear, here we go again. Taylor Swift is headlining Glastonbury festival and some people are a bit upset because - let me see if I have got this right - she’s a girly girl who plays girly pop music. For girls. Or something like that.” Full article below - https://www.telegraph.co.uk/music/artists/taylor-swift-headlining-glastonbury-isnt-outrageous-outrageous/amp/ Edited December 16, 2019 by circus92 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reckon they could headline the other at a push, wasn’t there but seemed like they smashed that secret set as pyramid sub that year. Definitely not even close to being headliners but wouldn’t surprise me if they headlined the other Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You know, I just looked this up because I thought Emily said verbatim that it was a man and a woman to come as headliners, but she says "the other two headliners, it’s their first time at Glastonbury, we have got one male and one female who are coming". I would expect as everyone else does that she means one male as in a man, but there is feasibly room to still think it means "one male headliner" in the context of what she's saying. Someone like the fucking Red Hot Chili Peppers would be described as a male headliner, right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Emily always strikes me as a wee bit more careful with her words, but an all male band requires some linguistic gymnastics. I'm sticking with a dude, singular.

Next summer they are headlining both Bennicassim and the Bingley Weekender so god knows where they would place. You could conceivably make a case for them daytime Pyramid, second/third Other or as a massive JP headliner. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe his wife used to try and get out of paying parking fines by claiming diplomatic immunity as she was married to the Ambassador of Soul. If true not only is it fucking incredible, but shit like that probably didn't help Think he had a few run ins with the taxman as well if I remember. I could look it all up on t'interwebs, but tbh I cant be arsed... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaledonianGonzo Posted December 17, 2019 Report Share Posted December 17, 2019 Probably a mixture of blowing it on drugs, fines, paternity suits, loss of earnings whilst in jail and bail money to get out of jail after being arrested again for domestic violence.
