As far as I can recall, in 35 years of unbroken Glastonbury Festivals attendance, this will be the first year where i've never knowingly heard a full track by two of the headliners.

jparx Posted January 21, 2020 Report Share Posted January 21, 2020 Nailed it. Hopefully they shift a good chunk of tickets ASAP and we get an announcement in Feb. IMO this is the best trio of headliners the festival has ever booked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe on a par with U2, Coldplay and Beyonce in 2011. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tommy Dickfingers Posted January 21, 2020 Report Share Posted January 21, 2020 Never been happier with headliners since I first went in 2013 and I can’t be doing with Taylor Swift either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quark Posted January 21, 2020 Report Share Posted January 21, 2020 None of them are really for me, but it's great to see it getting such a positive response on here. Happy for those of you that'l be front and centre Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomfestival_11 Posted January 21, 2020 Report Share Posted January 21, 2020 Has this happened before, two headliners at Glastonbury headlining another UK festival? i do prefer exclusives, i dont know why. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bruce, Neil & Blur U2, Coldplay & Beyonce Muse, Coldplay & Adele All those rank pretty high with me. This year's trio does win in term of variety in terms of genre / diversity though, which I'm pleased about, although I expect I'll only be there for Macca.

Well, BST is a festival in name only. No camping on site, no multiple day tickets, no artists on other stages while the headliners are on. They're just big outdoor gigs. But in '09 they had Neil Young and Bruce as well as Glastonbury. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter North Posted January 21, 2020 Report Share Posted January 21, 2020 (edited) There's nothing unique or special about having Kendrick and TS playing though, is there? They're playing everywhere. Festivals everywhere. Dont get me wrong, they're huge artists and I adore Kendrick, but it's nothing hugely special?

Walker2295 Posted January 21, 2020 Report Share Posted January 21, 2020 Love seeing the positivity on here, tired of the "It use to be all about guitars, how this festival has changed" Comments when announcements drops on facebook. Amazing 3 headliners and would probably end up at all if I had a ticket this year, but will be enjoying from the comfort of my sofa for another year I guess Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t think they are playing “everywhere”. This is one of two UK dates this summer. the average glasto goer probably doesn’t even realise they are playing shows in Europe during June.

Matt42 Posted January 21, 2020 Report Share Posted January 21, 2020 @Peter North also it’s literally not economically feasible for an American artist to do Glastonbury on a total exclusive. It doesn’t pay enough to warrant the trip over. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SwedgeAntilles Posted January 21, 2020 Report Share Posted January 21, 2020 Looking at 2/3 nights at the Pyramid this year. Delighted. Hoping for Foals or The National on the Other on Sunday night to round off the weekend. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kenny and Taylor aren't exclusives, but tbf they are two bookings that we thought would be very unlikely to happen until this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly this! 4 minutes ago, CJTM said: when was the last time a Glastonbury headliner played three or more dates in a UK summer? BST makes TS & KL very accessible I think you’re looking at this the wrong way. Kendrick and Taylor are two acts that could easily decline a Glastonbury offer because it doesn’t pay enough. if a relationship exists between Glasto and BST to make Glastonbury more economically feasible for major international artists I’m entirely for it. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
