I know the edge lords will say this isn't an addition blah blah blah, but I think Muse are nailed on for a secret set being festival favourites over the years… maybe Coldplay as well, but I just have a feeling on Muse

Muse would be incredible - Thoughts on Arctic Monkeys being a possible secret gig?

 

Very indifferent about coldplay, if you like them fine, i expect they put on a top show but doesn't excite me

I just hope they make more of the Thursday. With all of the ‘festival favourites ‘ rumoured to want to appear it would be great if we had more on..

 

I’m pretty sure the  licence  won’t allow for it but we can only hope

I can't remember who it was but I'm sure I saw a post on here fairly recently where someone said they'd heard that for 2020 they had gotten permission to start music on the stages at 6pm on the Thursday?

Successful for the second time on the trot so it is back to the predictions ahead of announcements this, next month and the next year announcements. I am bad at these but I have took Inspiration off other posters and this was what I am thinking. We cant avoid Coldplay and despite them not being peoples taste, it would be a good start to Pyramid proceedings, they wouldn't be that expensive with the relationship they have with the festival and the general audience will love them and so will the BBC for views. 'Rock slot' I think will be a loose term and I can see Wolf Alice playing it.

Macca I feel will play now. Not many front runners at the moment and he has spoken of it a few times, his daughter wanted him to play and if he pulled out he owes it to put on a show at the 50th.

Taylor is a shoe in. The gaps big enough to play despite being wedged with Scandinavian dates. Nick has to play the 50th and what a delight Taylor > Nick Cave would be. Has to be pyramid and would be a Sunday pleaser. Make that happen.

COLDPLAY // Lana Del Rey // Wolf Alice

PAUL MCCARTNEY // Noel Gallagher and the High Flying Birds // Missy Elliot

TAYLOR SWIFT // Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds // Dua Lipa 

Neil has said its definetly not McCartney

OK now I am excited, is Taylor the only nailed on at the moment?

Well, I wouldn’t go as far to say nailed on, but she makes the most sense of anyone right now. Again, it’s mostly educated guesses at this stage but a headline tour of festivals for the first time, no UK date yet announced, being friends with Ed and Stella, Glastonbury being the premier festival in Europe etc...signs do point to her currently.

That Charli / Bicep clash is brutal. Not sure Kano or Mahalia are that big (Not sure Mahalia's album has given her that much of a bumb and she was early doors JP this year, I'd have her down for 4th/5th down WH)

New album imminent, just signed with Universal and on Primary Talent, I am pretty sure Twin Atlantic will return next year - what slot do you think they would get? JP sub? low down Pyramid/Other?

I'd say low down Other or secret set at William's Green on Thursday night

Just spitballing here, and probably over thinking it, but I'm wondering if the Sunday might be a bit bigger in terms of acts. It's locals day and could be seen as something of a treat and a "thank you for allowing this for 50 years" to give them a day of big acts on the Pyramid.

Something even like Elbow > D. Ross > Kinks > Noel G > Taylor S.

I know there's a lot wrong there, Elbow too low (but hey, friends of the festival) and Noel may not like subbing Taylor, but this is just an example of what may be possible.

It's a shame Taylor can only do Sunday as that night would be perfect for Reginald Dwight.
