Hugh Jass Posted February 18, 2020 Report Share Posted February 18, 2020 That lineup screams "we had stuff lined up but it fell through so now were cobbling together any old crap because we are contractually obliged to put on six nights in the Park" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye, sounds like they've had a tough year with acts pulling out/falling through. If Arcade Fire and NIN had been the other two nights you could forgive this as a necessary filler. God alone knows what the next two announcements are going to look like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair, it still baffles me to this day that even in 2014 someone thought Jake Bugg would be big enough to headline the Other especially above both Manics & Pixies Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having Metallica and Pixies headline the two biggest stages wouldn’t have made much sense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It doesn’t seem to have gained much in the way of traction or interest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
