It's good, but I prefer the Supergrass original.

Fine with me.

According to Emily Eavis, 2 of the 3 headliners have been booked and neither have headlined before.

[AThom94]

Kendrick Lamar / Taylor Swift

[AThom94]

?

[Sam Y]

Could the 1975 do a secret set this year and headline in 2021 cos the singer said in an interview that they'd be at the festival even if they were headlining or not

[Hugh Jass]

I refuse to let the Macca dream die. A trio of Kendrick/Mac/Swift is just too perfect - two massive contemporary acts and the biggest living legends it is possible to book. A hugely diverse trio spanning three completely different genres.

It needs to happen.

[waltere]

Might just be talking about going as 'punters' regardless of whether or not they're booked?

Edit - talking about the 1975 quote

That's what I was thinking I was just speculating

At current rate of progress, I'd argue the 7 and second 2 need to be the other way round.

Has there been official word one way or the other on Macca?

Nothing official. Some are saying it’s unlikely, others like me are hoping he’s the third headliner who is still negotiating.

I’m an avid follower of one of the old firm but must admit one of the great joys of coming on here is to get away from football patter!  Come on Glastonbury, feed the e festers at least a few crumbs pre Christmas. 

I'm saying....

I also recently came out as someone who didn’t know who Kendrick was many pages ago. I was chastised for it but I’m nearly 40 so I don’t care. 
 

fuck the mum test. You need to be asking the old ravers like me if we understand this new modern weird music shite.

Old Firm patter is even worse than the Liverpool/Man Utd crack on here. 
 

Gonna be a long couple of months.

Agreed ?

To be fair, the scouse and Manc footy fans don’t feel obliged to let the footy teams they support influence their political views. Rule Brittania etc.

There's folk here older than you who'll be going taps aff down the front of Kenny.

Semi drunk post but when is the penny gonna drop for some glasto attendees that Emily wants to book some current and exciting acts for Glasto goers. Yes it’s great getting a heritage act to do it but the focus is on the new generation of Glasto goers.

Your time has passed. Younger Glasto goers want to be inspired by seeing their heroes on the pyramid stage... just like you did when you were their age.

Kendrick: writes an inspirational album about being a black youth in today’s culture 

some boomers: “yeah but have you heard of manic street preachers?”.

Agreed. I only know 2/3 songs but there is plenty of time between now & G to listen.

Not a fan of new rap music but I am living in the past where Dr. Dre, Xzibit, Fiddy, Game, Obie Trice, Jay-Z & Linkin Park were top of the game.
