This what I'm thinking. I think they'll headline eventually but it won't be for the 50th. Fingers crossed for the park on saturday though!

Surely they wouldn’t have 3 mega acts even for the 50th though, there’ll be atleast one slightly smaller act I would have thought no?

[Madyaker]

Yeah that's true. Maybe Foals on the friday? Id still be surprised though

That’s my guess, now don’t get me started on if it’s macca or Elton or Jesus Christ himself in the other 2 slots

Don't buy this sorry Homer. She'll be on the Gas Tower, no? 

Fwiw that list is of substantiated claims... 

Surely it's as credible as Silk City?

For what it's worth I don't think either is right.

Successfully subbed the pyramid and another successful album this year with part 2 coming out next year, it’s as likely as anyone else out there

Successful? How successful?

Ask your nan is she's heard of Stormzy, then ask her if she's heard of Foals. I bet you this packet of Monster Munch (beef) sitting on my desk that she says Yes then No.

Wasn’t comparing Stormzy to Foals think both are great headliners, from where I was foals in 2016 was top notch, the sound issue was weird but that was only brief, plenty of songs that loads of people know each album gets better IMO

Since when did who’s made the most appearances on Jonathan Ross determine who’s a better pyramid headliner? 

[august1]

Kevin Parker on radio 1 mentioning how much he enjoyed djing with Ronson last time and wants to do it again this year, doesn't appear to be a slot for it on the Friday though. 

[stuartbert two hats]

Fans of The Foals are a funny lot. They're not headlining.

[Brave Sir Robin]

Thoroughly pissed off about the prospect of a Lizzo/Foals clash. Surely the latter would make for a better JP headliner than any kind of Diplo-based outfit?? I heard Diplo will be furious if he clashes with Chems...

A secret set headlining a stage is daft whoever it is, but especially so if it’s someone who’s as big as Foals. They should get a move on announcing that TBA.

Would be very strange to have a secret set as a major stage headliner though. Has it ever happened? It also doesn’t make sense with Diplo being on the poster and then listed in that slot (after the Foals info too).

Not sure I agree. Diplo was meant to be in that slot and has disappeared from the lineup (yet still has dates on his website, for Glastonbury and other festivals), Annie Mac was announced for the Gas Tower and then removed later on, and said she had an unannounced set at a later date. And of course Ronson is around. 

I'm not particularly confident in the SC idea btw, just think it fits far better than any of the rumours around that Arcadia slot atm.

Fair enough, as I say I think it'll be neither I don't see Ronson jumping from John Peel to Stonebridge in 15 minutes. I think if you're saying only corroborated things should be added then Silk City shouldn't unless someone has something better than Diplo's disappearance. Diplo could well be Arcadia.

I mean they successfully turned up and played the slot, maybe that's what they meant?

It is true that they aren't as big as The Killers but I'd argue they are as big as some who have headlined and have more material and if they have a couple of belters lined up for next year giving them the leg up to become big headliners of the future would be a nice move. 

Yeah I’d like to see them get a shot. But there’s  no point pretending they have as much in the way of crowd pleasing hits as the Killers though, or in the Foos, or Ed, or Coldplay, or even Radiohead.

Bros opening the park?

Wolf Alice opening their Park set with Bros?

Yes but I do worry where our headliners of the future come from and I'm not a huge Foals fan by any means but I have seen them twice and I do think they could be capable of doing it.

GOD DAMN IT, I HATE MYSELF.

You should hate Yannis as well... he always "we are the Foals"....

So 100% Foals, unless the source is unreliable, in which case 100% not Foals. 

Thats some proper fuzzy logic there.  

[buffy394]

A surprise Glasto appearence would deffo set Wolf Alice up well for their string of small Summer festivals. They've played the park before, love the festival and are actively around warming up for a new album next year. 

Can see them doing the morning TBA this year and then moving up to Other stage sub/late Pyramid afternoon slot for the 50th.

All pure speculation of course ?
