jparx Posted December 3, 2019 Report Share Posted December 3, 2019 I mean, Lionel, Chems, Scream, Supergrass and Dua Lipa would be a fun weekend. Snow Patrol headlining IOW though? Yikes. And we thought they might have Taylor Swift! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seeing Lionel during the day at Glasto was a lot of fun, but as headliner of the whole thing? I’m not so sure. Same applies to Duran Duran. And that’s before we even get to the perennial indie bet setters. In previous years IOW have clearly spent big on headliners and left nothing for the rest. This year it looks like they’ve gone the other way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SwedgeAntilles Posted December 3, 2019 Report Share Posted December 3, 2019 I'm actually kinda impressed that they've managed to select a collection of acts from across the last three decades which, when put together, would look out of place no matter the year.

Despite being the exact same sausage party as TRNSMT it still feels a little less heinous than what Geoff Ellis has cooked up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would happily see them pop up somewhere on the Glasto lineup. But let's face facts, they're not major festival headliners in 2020. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Freddyflintstonree Posted December 3, 2019 Report Share Posted December 3, 2019 Justtt for the sake of argument, if you knew for certain that it wasn't Kendrick and Taylor headlining, what would the best guess be for the other two?
