I think that was the same info that said Dua Lipa and The 1975 were headlining the Other stage, when there's more info now that Dua Lipa will be on the Pyramid and The 1975 aren't playing. Foals can only play Saturday or Sunday so I'm expecting them as our Sunday Other headliner. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwedgeAntilles Posted January 17, 2020 Report Share Posted January 17, 2020 Cheers @sisco and @kingcrawler definitely seems Foals are looking likely again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not a problem at all. Personally if the others are ruled out for a variety of reasons I’d say the current options are: PSB Calvin Harris Massive Attack Foals Biffy Clyro Royal Blood The National Sure some others can add a few more names Edited January 17, 2020 by sisco Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whether people think they're Pyramid headliners now or not, the vast majority clearly don't, I really don't see them playing another slot. They're still headlining every festival they pay and I imagine for a handsome payday. They don't strike me as the type of band to accept a lower slot because it's Glastonbury It was either the 5th or 6th December. Part of the Music News segment on Keaveny's show, talking about an exhibition thing he did with some artist that has the same name?? It was a bit odd, but he was asked something like "are you doing a field next June" and he said something about preferring to do their own shows for their fans. It was a bit vague and I can't remember all the details, but it seemed very clear they weren't doing Glastonbury. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He seemed to rule them out quite definitively. Oh thank you for that! I couldnt remember what I had read or heard😂 hopefully it'll be a show I can attend.

I don't see Biffy Clyro showing up. The 1975 I reckon a secret set plus a solo sat from that Matt bloke if he's mentioned about it. I always thought they would wait for a new record to come before they headlined and the Reading headline set came at a time when Glastonbury then Reading made more sense. They've already done Reading and an arena tour off of this album essentially. 30 minutes ago, Neondrift said: Twenty One Pilots randomly playing Dublin on that Thursday still seems weirdly suspicious..

The band need to be secret about playing (if they are) at the moment so that could be reason enough for the laughing. I don't really see why it couldn't be an announced set just not as (Pyramid) headliners, and if they headlined the Other it would fit with what Emily said of the Other headliners being Pyramid-sized.

zeppelin Posted January 18, 2020 Report Share Posted January 18, 2020 I personally didn't take that interview as a deconfirmation by any means. Anyway, I just want The National or Massive Attack for Sunday night. And then Friday/Saturday to not be to my taste at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt42 Posted January 18, 2020 Author Report Share Posted January 18, 2020 (edited) Said in other thread but is there anything actually tying Calvin into this? I thought the general consensus was that he was a late draft in for Coachella? My guess at the moment is Pet Shop Boys, Twenty One Pilots and Massive Attack. I know I said no to 21p before but if not them then the National or Foals? Edited January 18, 2020 by Matt42 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
