They’ve obviously got a sizeable and devoted fan-base who regularly get to see them on the European festival circuit. Glastonbury’s different though, in that PJ fans can’t choose to go once they realise they’re playing and I can’t imagine too many of the attendees will be big PJ fans (especially if this thread is any kind of indicator). I don’t think too many of their songs will be that well known to a casual Glasto festival crowd, and if the likes of Radiohead, Arcade Fire and Metallica struggle to retain a huge crowd, I don’t suspect PJ will either.

CaledonianGonzo Posted October 30, 2019 Report Share Posted October 30, 2019 The Jam fanbase are like the Grateful Dead's - they sell out every gig they play, but it's to the exact same set of fans. Springsteen is the same, but he's also got enough big hits to also attract casuals and floating voters. 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get them booked, Michael - that'll wake up the so-called picnic blankets brigade! That was bloody good - you could see on their faces that at first they were a bit weirded out by the scene, primarily cos of the drum n bass at the bit next door ?? then they played, circle pits happened, metal times were had and they all looked very surprised and happy. Great set ?? I bloody loved Wolverine Blues when I was a young’un Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bradders Posted October 30, 2019 Report Share Posted October 30, 2019 Pearl Jam would be the most “who are they?” headliner since Arcade Fire. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy0808 v5 Posted October 30, 2019 Report Share Posted October 30, 2019 (edited) Strokes have announced another South American festival, albeit March. But I bloody hope this means Other headliner if they carry on the festivals, preferably Taylor’s night ?

Festiboi69 Posted October 30, 2019 Report Share Posted October 30, 2019 I've tried PJ but the singer just sounds too much like the guy from Nickleback for me. I believe his name is Chad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve been flitting between Truth and Earache since they both popped up and went all metallic ???? Gojira were great as were Venom Prison before them. Saw Employed to Serve on the Scum stage which was a great stage. Saw a Dutch death metal band called Sisters of Suffocation last night and they'd be perfect for the Scum stage. Getting back on topic. I'd love it if PJ played. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dark Star Posted October 30, 2019 Report Share Posted October 30, 2019 That flurry of activity caused by that fake Pearl Jam tour list was good entertainment. Would love them to be there. The group I'm going with all met as a result of Pearl Jam tour. Seeing them on the Pyramid would be awesome, but I've more chance of winning the lottery tonight without buying a ticket!

I tend to check out the metal lineups when they’re announced, Abhorrent Decimation a couple of months back were a great find. But then I checked out Arcturus ahead of a spring lineup and shitme, they are comedy dreadful ?? might go along just cos it’s so tinny teen goth nonsense (and not in a good way) Edited October 30, 2019 by balti-pie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rmartin1803 Posted October 30, 2019 Report Share Posted October 30, 2019 Cant see past Coldplay with the new album and tour on the horizon and if not as a headliner im sure there will be at least as a secret set for the 50th . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
