Pet Shop Boys 2020?

[Quark]

So what are we thinking then? Reckon one or more of:

First radio play of new single that comes out this morning

New album announcement

Collaboration

Reissues or remixes of old album(s)

Additional tour dates

Festival appearances

Calling it a day after the tour finishes

My guess would be album news as they do have a new one pencilled in for 2020. Could also link in with calling it a day.

I think they are nailed on for one of the Other Stage headline spots.

[Quark]

New single is my guess. Its popped up on Deezer as a release today so I reckon they'll spin that.

Had a check of the Thingy this morning and last year is the only time they'd announced two acts before Christmas (Stormzy and Kylie).

As much as we want an announcement, history suggests we ain't getting one just yet. However

I also had a dream last night they were headlining. And the whole crowd were doing coordinated dance moves that I didn't know....

and the single news was a bit underwhelming

Agreed, I reckon by the time they are in again in Jan though they'll be talking about doing Glasto 

[GrumpyRaver]

Lauren said they'd be coming into the studio in January, so there may be a Glasto announcement then...

I would think they will be our first announcement based on absolutely nothing  

[zahidf]

They have an ambitious arena tour to sell, so any announcement for Glasto a long way off I'd guess!

[Bennykill]

was a very 'Elysium' sounding single,  I wonder if that will be the feel of the new album.  Wasnt a fan of that album at first but it has grown on me over the years

a full on late night dancy set and light show in the naughty corner would be my dream,  but i cant imagine it.

Not seen mich talk recently despite the previous heavy rumours. What is the current thinking behind them?

[Hugh Jass]

My thinking was Sunday Pyramid sub but apparently they're not keen on playing in the light. The Other headliner rumours are pointing elsewhere.

There was talk of a mega WH headliner. If they're that desperate to play in the dark they could be there.

[faymondo]

Denmark date announced for June 21st. I reckon another return to the Other Stage headlining.

Was thinking West holts might be too small untill my friend reminded me the jacksons played there not long ago .... would love the psbs there ... although it’s not exactly small it feels a bit more intimate ... bring it on

Wouldn’t be too small if, say, Taylor Swift was on the Pyramid and Noel G on the Other at the same time.

No no no ... just swap out Taylor .. and can’t have mccartney either ... but yes I get the thought

That would be perfect for me and an ideal way to round off the festival.

[Quark]

Ooh yes please

So keen for this!

[Chrisp1986]

Just really wish they would.play in day. Pyramid sub would be perfect and dropping darker towards end of set anyway. Wasnt it fairly light when they started the radio 2 set?

[zero000]

PSB - Taylor Swift is the headliner/sub combo that we all need, and deserve. None of this other stage headliner rubbish. 

[Clarence Clemons]

I just hope they play somewhere!

Agree that WH would be suitable, it stretches a long way back and the sound is always 10/10! ?
