He will be on with Hobo Jones in the Avalon cafe

btw I loved Coldplay in16 and if they played would be there! Seems he loves glasto as much as we do 

Didn’t see them in 16 (LCD Soundsystem) but their 2011 set was superb. Changed my opinion of them TBH. However it’s way too soon for them to be back, and I think they know that. I really don’t see it being them next year.

If it helps him avoid the resale, I suppose keeping up this narcissistic ‘front’ is just the price to pay.

 

It doesn’t help that in 2016, I was still throwing up the alcohol from Saturday night whilst watching them at the top of the hill. Bad memories.

-1 for them headlining any time soon.  

+1 for them opening the Pyramid.

Were you also disappointed this wasn't a thread about the goal scoring machine himself?

HA!  

Not sure how to answer that given your location! ?

Don't worry - I may live here now but I grew up in Derbyshire. I'm a Ram undercover ?

[SwedgeAntilles]

As a Scotsman I think ALL Chris Martin's are rubbish

Keep up the great work Agent JParx! 

I don't suppose you're one of those who carries the large DCFC flag around each time?

There's no good Scottish players to give the goalscoring legend any service!

Unfortunately not. I always assumed it was you...!

My guess is a secret set, performing Parachutes in full. I expect fairly early on the pyramid. It'd be madness to try getting them into the park or JP. Historically these secret sets are not that secret, so it'll be rammed. Although the casuals at the pyramid may be surprised!

For the record, I like Chris Martin. It seems his big crime is unabashed enthusiasm and honestly there are enough miserable gits in the world. Coldplay are a great band too, and their 2016 set was brilliant.

Honestly, I would love this. Love Parachutes and A Rush is Blood to the Head. They’ve went steadily and steeply downhill since until reaching whatever their current iteration is. But Parachutes live would absolutely sucker me in.

Maybe they'll experiment with decent lyrics.

Also is anyone getting bored of the weak jokes about Chris performing everywhere?

No.

Come on enjoy. "Featuring" as his first name. Heard it before but still amuses and is not weak. Unlike Chris's lyrics. IMO. Blander than a bland thing. ?

Probably the biggest lighting display event ever seen on the Pyramid stage and they follow it with a 11am day time slot.

Maybe they could get James to guest and play some album tracks that nobody knows. 

Please people, get a grip on reality here.

A few years ago when his kids were still little he sat next to us at the meeting point just up from William's Green. 

It was a nice sunny day and he was feeding them chips, which tickled me.

What does their previous set have to do with next year? Maybe he'd like to do a lower spec show?

Martin loves the festival and the Eavii, he'd play anywhere they asked him to just to be a part of the celebrations.

they won't be featuring on my Pyramid stage I can assure you

Give him a 6am Sunday slot

[squirrelarmy]

As soon as I saw the new album details I had a bad feeling. 
 

 

Now the feeling isn’t so bad. If I’m wrong I’m down £10 but Coldplay aren’t headlining. 
However if I’m right I will have £45 extra to spend on beer which will help me get through another Glastonbury with Coldplay 

I don’t see Coldplay being anywhere other than a Pyramid headliner.
