Have the Bad Seeds been ruled out somewhere and I've missed it? Not ruled out but they aren't announced for any festivals and are touring arenas all over Europe from about March to mid-June. I think people were anticipating that the tour would segue into a festival run but it doesn't look to be happening. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's info putting them on Park which due to the early finish pretty much rules out Sunday. Could do Saturday as far as I know though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jack.194 Posted January 21, 2020 Report Share Posted January 21, 2020 Does anyone have the link to the 2019 equivalent of this thread? I want to have a look through to see the sort of predictions being made for stages/acts last year to gauge an idea of accuracy.

Most people probably reckon Friday as Calvin Harris is probably most likely to do the Sat (assuming he is playing, good counter to Paul) and it makes most sense to spread the electronic acts out a bit.

Not sure the overlap of people wanting to see Bicep and Calvin Harris is that high to be honest. But yeah I unfortunately get the logic. That predicted Saturday night up above isn't great for me or my group, be hoping for some big names in SE Corner, Pangea, Glade etc if its near accurate.

mattiloy Posted January 21, 2020 Report Share Posted January 21, 2020 Pixies will be somewhere I think. Would be gutted if j&mc clashed with both thom yorke and McCartney and think it unlikely. If just on Customer satisfaction then theres more crossover in fans there than with those Taylor Swift or kendrick and thom yorke or j&mc.

Leyrulion Posted January 22, 2020 Report Share Posted January 22, 2020 (edited) With Emily Eavis's commitment to being at/nearly at a 50/50 gender split some of these lineups seem short on women so throwing out these in addition to those already up there. Georgia, Celeste, Normani, RAYE, Robyn, Ava Max, Gabrielle Aplin, Jorja Smith, Tove Lo, Lorde Apologies if you've already mentioned any of them. Any more suggestions which are a bit less "pop"?

Which makes sense when you are playing fantasy bookings but remember the festival doesn't give a shit about clashes and makes zero effort to spread similar acts about or line up the most suitable alternatives.

Again that's not how the festival arranges bookings, acts with way more cross over than that play at the same time every year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd been wondering already how the Ghosteen material would work as a live show, I can imagine it would be even harder to translate in a festival setting.

Deltron were awesome but beforehand I was worried Del Tha Funky Homosapien's reputation for half-arsed performances is almost as bad as De La Soul's. By all accounts De La were better than they often are that day as well. Danny Brown was probably brilliant as well but I know nobody who missed J5.

chazwwe Posted January 22, 2020 Report Share Posted January 22, 2020 I've been saying to my friends for a little while, with who acts who are touring, small predictions here and there, I really think the stage I'll be at the most this year is the Pyramid and then a few trips down to the park for Soccer Mommy/Big Thief. I only saw 2 and a half acts last year which for me was fairly low but not ridiculously. This year it seems I'll be seeing every headliner and a fair few of the undercard each day. Its great because I do go there for the music, but it makes me sad I might not see as much of the site this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
