Well, now we know he's subbing the Pyramid. This will be some moment -

 

It absolutely will - saw him in Dublin 6 weeks ago and this was one of the standouts (one of many to be fair)

The closing run of The Dying Light > Saturday > Seventeen Going Under > Hypersonic Missiles was off the scale good - if he repeats that run on The Pyramid it will be epic.

Correct, we saw him in Glasgow around the same time, he was tremendous and he is made for a full pyramid field. Epic? Certainly.

Wonderful, really really looking forward to this, can't wait.

Got to say this is fast becoming one of the sets I’m most looking forward to. 

It’s got classic written all over it. 

It has indeed - personally the only thing I would change is I would swap him with Billie 😉

I also love how down to earth Sam is and how he makes sure its not all about him - his band get a fair share of the limelight as well - they come across as bunch of mates who are having the time of their lives.

And the bloke who kicked Amber's head in

I'd buy him a pint in a heartbeat now

Sorry I just reported this, but my partner informs me it's a joke based on his lyrics, sorry, I completely misunderstood.

    • Any festival is going to face most of the same limitations just by the nature of the event. It's not realistic to accommodate custom staging that extends out deep into the field. Trying to do so and trying to rebuild those kind of structures at the front of the field every day would severely impact on other performers, potentially even including other headliners. It'd also drive everyone involved insane. The most you can get away with is a basic extension that doesn't hide anything fancy. Remember that a lot of the time on these big choreographed shows, the stage extension itself will contain all manner of things to help the show beyond just being a simple platform. Also remember that these structures are designed to be assembled and operate on perfectly flat stadium or arena floors.   In terms of the stage itself - yes, the Pyramid is undersized (I believe 16 metres wide at rigging level). The de facto industry standard has become 20 metres and so it likely does need increasing and apparently there are plans to do so. But that only helps with artists that can largely confine themselves to the stage.   The Other Stage is already 20 metres - to be exact the Other Stage structure is the same model that Serious Stages provide to Reading, Leeds, Download etc for use as their Main Stage and there's nothing larger (at least off the shelf) in their catalogue. So no reason to change that.
    • Can someone remind me, on Harry Styles specifically - have we had any concrete info on him?   I don't personally remember saying much/anything on him, though I have just been away for a month, so could be forgetting something.
