My guess is pet shop boys up against him on the other.

This could cause problems between me and my husband! 

We'll probably have to separately enjoy our headliners! 😅

Can’t see Dre coming out with Kendrick at Glastonbury myself. He’s probably a bit busy, hopefully as rumoured working with 3 stacks on an album.

Now there's another project that will never ever see the light of day, if it exists at all.

Is it a usual thing for the Glasto headliners to also headline BST? 

Yup.

Taylor: Banger after banger after banger

 

 

Can someone give me a list to give her a fair go? I only know 'shake it off', which is obviously ridiculously catchy.

Is it just me or does it make them seem a little less "special"? 

Didn't make the Stones any less special.

Best way is just going to see who you both want, that way neither of you resent the others taste/choice. I've been to a couple of Headliners on my own and enjoyed a great set. Ideally you both go see who you both like but it can't happen all the time especially with my mrs' taste

Most years there’s usually at least one headliner who crosses over with GF.

Stones, Arcade Fire, Springsteen, The Who and Blue have all done so in recent years.

I've been hammering Getaway Car, Cruel Summer and Red recently. Three absolute bangers right there. Just plough through CalGon's playlist and you'll get a good intro.

Yeah I don't even remember that they did headline BST that year. Who cares.

I had tickets for Hyde Park but flogged them as soon as I heard they were headlining Glasto. There was nowhere else you’d want to see them.

[CaledonianGonzo]

I did go to the first night at Hyde Park, but it was a mere shadow of the Glastonbury set.

Agree on this. I’ve been holding off on seeing Macca elsewhere waiting for him to do Glastonbury and I’m absolutely over the moon he is now. 
 

I’ve never seen Kendrick either due to the price more than anything. Really buzzing first time is at Glastonbury for him also.

What's that now?

[jparx]

Can't imagine standing there during All Too Well and thinking "yeah it's good, but damn this would be so much better if she wasn't doing BST next week". 

It's not even like BST is before Glastonbury and we're getting their seconds. Glastonbury is so clearly the focus of their UK shows.

Maybe 1 but not sure about 2 in the same year, which makes me think it might not be Kendrick! 🙄

[CaledonianGonzo]

Put it another way:  will it make you enjoy Macca more?

Hot take: I thought their show at the London Stadium two years ago was better than Glastonbury.

Can't comment on the London show, but the Glastonbury show came supplemented with Lisa Fisher, Bobby Keys and Mick Taylor which, as a fan, was something I didn't hate to see.

Different beasts - GF was more about the occasion and sense of history around them finally doing it for me. London they were just fantastic musically.

Could be way off the mark here but was there a thing at one point about a solo Male headliner who hadn’t played before?
 

Creamfields announced Calvin Harris as a U.K. dance festival exclusive today which is weirdly niche and almost like they’re desperate to claim some kind of exclusive so we know he’s playing somewhere else. Could obviously be TRNSMT, IOW or any other big festival in the U.K. but could it also be Glasto?

Covered in the Other headliner thread chief. If he's anywhere near Glastonbury that's where he'll be.
