Sat night Park/WH clash hurting souls 

[Guy Incognito]

Hoping Thom Yorke does the Sunday.

[SwedgeAntilles]

Yeah, the Tomorrow´s Modern Boxes reviews have been great, Thom Yorke is probably only 2nd only to Macca on my list, would be gutted if they´re clashing

Loving this lineup - excellent job!  Just swap Charli with Foals and I would be camped at the Pyramid all Sunday ?

[The life of Pablo]

Do we think all the Pyramid Stage on the Sunday could be all women? With Swifty and Diana Ross, surely they could? Would make a very big statement.

Don't think they'd force it, but it could happen I guess. I think one of Foals or Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds will sub though, with the other headlining The Other.

[dentalplan]

I don't particularly like things like that. Comes across more like an intentional gimmick rather than an attempt to make things seem as natural as one would hope they'd be.

That Kendrick/PSB/B&S clash can get to fuck.

[Gilgamesh69]

If Pulp reformed next year, they'd probably play Glasto, yeah? But where do you reckon they would play? ?

[CaledonianGonzo]

Woild need to be a special guest slot as otherwise they're probably Pyramid headliners.

Is there any indication this is happening?

[Scenester64]

Just as an aside, if it's not been mentioned already, I'd not be shocked if Lionel Richie was a guest with Diana Ross to do their song 'Endless Love'. 

 

He's part way through a UK tour at the time with no dates that weekend & I remember seeing him in Vegas a couple of years back where he joked about her doing the sing with him that night before saying he couldn't remember the last time they had done it together so Glasto would seem a good fit for a crowd pleasing reunion.

Thats a good shout, would be amazing.

He has a show in Germany on the same day, so probably not a runner.

If anyone ever meets Jarvis Cocker of Pulp they could ask him

Why not start a thread asking if anyone has met him?

This is such a jump to conclusion/straw clutching as anything.

'Pulp aren't reforming next year, but if they were too, they would probably play Glastonbury. So where would they play. Amazing.

I was having a piss next to Jarvis at me local boozer a few months ago, I complimented him on his watch and we started talking. He was saying how he's well excited about next year 'cause he's got something big planned

 

So it's not conclusive but it's possible they'll get the gang back together

I’m going to need more concrete info than “some oddball accosted Jarvis in a toilet” before I get too excited.

Im gonna give this one a strong I doubt it/10 

If it were to happen, it'd be great. Sling em 3rd down on the Pyramid as a 'special' slot but I really can't see it.

Definitely thought that compliment was being aimed further south after that initial setup.

And isn't he gearing up to release an album with his Jarv Is project? I'd have thought that would be the big thing planned rather than Pulp reforming

[VCK]

One of my biggest regrets is never being able to catch Pulp on their 2011 tour. Could have seen them at Leeds but I had no money at the time. Let this happen.

It must be a decent watch to catch the eye at that angle. 😂 I think Jarvis will be there in one form or another, he is one of the performers interconnected with the festival. 

[SwedgeAntilles]

New year bump for the predictions thread. I'll stick to headliners only;

Pyramid

Kendrick Lamar / Paul McCartney / Taylor Swift

Other Stage

Pet Shop Boys / Calvin Harris / The 1975

West Holts

Thom Yorke / FKA Twigs / The Isley Brothers

John Peel

Wolf Alice / Orbital / IDLES

The Park

Bicep / Big Thief / Belle & Sebastian
