From memory, I’m pretty sure it was TY, Isley brothers Kano, but can’t be absolutely 100% on that.

Wonder where this leaves FKA Twigs? Could she maybe have a high Other slot? JP or Park headline perhaps?

Park headliner makes sense. I’d be pretty happy with her as my Friday night headliner, not too fussed about Kendrick or Editors and I’m seeing Thom Yorke the week before anyway.

[the wonderwhy]

ffs so you're telling me the plan was Chaka Khan on Saturday night? 

Goddamnit that would've been a DREAM

[Matt42]

No female headliner on WH 😕

I know, if you can be bothered to search my posts then you can see I hinted that this act was almost legend slot worthy back whenever I posted it. It would’ve been pretty good.

[the wonderwhy]

also whats the obsession with refusing to use the words 'woman' or 'women'?

So, in terms of 'solid' rumours we've got, is this what we know so far?

Fri
Py: Kendrick
OS: ??
WH: Thom Yorke
JP: Editors
Pa: ??

Sat
Py: Macca
OS: Dua Lipa
WH: Isleys
JP: Charli xcx
Pa: ??

Sun
Py: Taylor Swift
OS: Pet Shop Boys
WH: Kano
JP: ??
Pa: ??

Possibly Bicep taking up one of the Park headline sets, and maybe Charli xcx on the Sunday?

[Hugh Jass]

Doesn’t seem to be much in the way of info around the Park at the moment. Is it because it’s Emily’s baby and she’s keeping a tight grip on what gets out?

People thinking Manic Street Preachers in JP on Sunday. Dunno if that's just good guesswork or not thought

There's been info for a while that Bicep are one of the headliners, and I could see FKA Twigs taking one of the slots now. Maybe FKA Friday, Bicep Sat and a band on the Sunday? A lot of guesswork there though.

Sad to see no lady headliners on West Holts.

Ah I hadn't heard that one. Anyone know if there's been some info for that?

Would be impressive as they are playing in Halifax on the Sunday

They're playing in Halifax on the Sunday. I'm hoping JP Friday.

[CaledonianGonzo]

Macca and The Isley Brothers both deploying Twist and Shout simultaneously.

[Kalopsia]

If that's the case then I'm quite pleased because none of them really spark my joy so I'm clash free so far..

[Guest]

Pretty decent slot for Kano btw. I was expecting at least one British rapper to headline a stage, thought it might have been AJ Tracey or J Hus.

Belle & Sebastian maybe? Think they’re about over the G weekend.

[SwedgeAntilles]

I'm going to struggle for something on Sunday by the looks of it...

Yeah they'd fit.

Isleys v Macca? Not going to be heaving is it?
