Sam Fender

Nah, they'd began their hiatus by the time the G rolled around. Talk goes they were booked in 2021 - as was Elton John - though not sure if this booking is to effectively honour that one or not. I'd doubt it, given the chat is they came in to replace Fred again. at some point.

 

Have banged the drum that a Sam Fender / The 1975 / Olivia Rodrigo trio would have been great, but there's definitely plenty who seemed distressed by the lack of an old-school name. Young naturally negates - some - concerns there.

 

Fender's health issues are potentially the weak link. You'd want him to headline, but his tendency to be forced off the road may well give pause when reaching for the phone.

Really enjoying 'Arms Length'. It keeps popping up on the radio and it draws me in!

Certainly a song that grows on you. All over BBC R1 and R2, possibly receiving more airtime than People Watching?

Blue Hat must be on good commission.

 

Think I read somewhere that Fender's band has the same model as the E Street Band for live performances - an even fee split for the man and his players.

I don't believe this to be anywhere near the truth, sorry!

Was slightly surprised wild long Lie was everywhere too considering it’s clearly about late night sessions on coke. 😂🤷‍♀️😂

I’ve reached the same conclusion! Also a gap in his tour from 22 June to 5 July which looks a bit suspicious … 👀 he’s in Switzerland and then Germany but that gap would give loads of time to get back to UK in between…

Hes pyramid  headliner or nothing surely … in which case one of the predictions would be wrong … interesting to see how this plays out . That hole couldn’t be for something else ?

Sam has just announced some new dates in August which added to his existing June dates means he’s not planning a summer off. Which I think means he will be at the festival.

He was already doing he dates in Newcastle in June so it was very clear already he wasn't having a summer off. He wasn't only doing an arena tour I support of new material

    • Not necessarily but it should be, Download have a habit of messing it uo when others get the bookings on point. Good Charlotte I doubt are playing 3rd down and that too 3 that day while dreamy is too strong. I think you'd have one another day to help sell weekend tickets. I also doubt Papa Roach play. 
    • Here's a bit of a wild stab, few placings may be off, and for all I know half of these won't actually be touring next year, but screw it, it's a bit of fun   Pyramid: Sabrina Carpenter, Phoebe Bridgers, TBA (Florence + The Machine), Garbage, The Last Dinner Party, Interpol, Alex James Britpop Classical Other: Chase & Status, Teddy Swims, Clairo, The Kooks, Zara Larsson, Kingfishr, Sports Team, Orbital West Holts: Robyn, Baby Keem, De La Soul, Deltron 3030, JID, Dua Saleh, kwn, Daniela Latila Woodsies: Bonobo, Darkside, TBA (Tame Impala), Laufey, Warmduscher, Wednesday, The Lottery Winners, The Royston Club, Florence Road Park: Patti Smith, Super Furry Animals, Slayyyter, The Cardigans, Skye Newman, Kelly Lee Owens, Teen Jesus & The Jean Teasers   Pyramid: Harry Styles, The xx, Richard Ashcroft, The Pogues, Jessie J, Sigrid, Travis Other: Rosalia, Sombr, Mitski, Alex Warren, Holly Humberstone, Cat Burns, Pale Waves, Yard Act West Holts: Basement Jaxx, Elyanna, Clipse, L’Imperatrice, Nation of Language, Jim Legxacy, Yazmin Lacey, RIP Magic Woodsies: Suede, Chvrches, Bleachers, MUNA, The Cribs, Keo, Bleech 9:3, The Lilacs Park: MARINA, Magdalena Bay, Jacob Alon, TBA (Lily Allen performs West End Girl), Getdown Services, Isaac Wood, Snail Mail, Madra Salach Pyramid: Sam Fender, Hozier, David Byrne, Cher, Obongjayar, David Gray, Billy Ocean Other: Doja Cat, Deftones, Addison Rae, Ren, Viagra Boys, Maisie Peters, The Reytons, Hard Life West Holts: Kano, Thievery Corporation, Angine De Poitrine, Thee Sacred Souls, Brooke Combe, Sasha Keable, Master Peace Woodsies: The Wombats, Metronomy, Geese*, Dry Cleaning, EsDeeKid, Sienna Spiro, Cowboy Hunters, Radio Free Alice Park: Big Thief, Laura Marling, MJ Lenderman, Richard Dawson, Oklou, Maruja, Dead Dads Club, Ratboys   *There's always one band booked for Woodsies that ends up being massively under-billed and gets shut down really early. They'd be better off playing somewhere like Other sub, but I could see the G getting them to play a smaller stage while it's still possible
    • Another Kraftwerk one for me today, as just back from seeing them.    
    • Completed my 2026 survey. Put down Super Furry Animals as my most wanted for next year but suspect the moment has gone for that. Popped a big shopping list in the box for who else you would like to see. 🙂
