kingbadger Posted March 12, 2020 Report Share Posted March 12, 2020 So much for Pyramid level headliners, instead here's someone who plays 30 sets each year and last appearance on a main stage was subbing the John Peel Tent. Completely bizarre it's fair to say. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt42 Posted March 12, 2020 Author Report Share Posted March 12, 2020 (edited) If Glastonbury does go ahead, headlining the Other stage will be Pet Shop Boys, Dua Lipa and Fatboy Slim, though their respective days have not been announced. https://www.theguardian.com/music/2020/mar/12/glastonbury-defies-coronavirus-threat-to-announce-lineup-with-kendrick-lamar?CMP=Share_iOSApp_Other Edited March 12, 2020 by Matt42 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jparx Posted March 12, 2020 Report Share Posted March 12, 2020 Dua Lipa will smash it but weak overall headliners. Good for me though since I’ll be at the Pyramid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FloorFiller Posted March 12, 2020 Report Share Posted March 12, 2020 Also lol at the months of speculation over the Pyramid sized headliners. What on Earth was Emily on about with that statement 😄 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fat boy should be no way near headlining a stage. I can only think its a nod to his many years of service. They know he'll pull a crowd and he'll likely be free.

Flying_Hellfish Posted March 12, 2020 Report Share Posted March 12, 2020 Did someone pull out then or is it a reward for years served? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dronx Posted March 12, 2020 Report Share Posted March 12, 2020 Wow even for an Eavis the pyramid sized other stage headliners claim is hilarious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwedgeAntilles Posted March 12, 2020 Report Share Posted March 12, 2020 Thinking about this a bit more, if he's the Sunday I can see this being a Fatboy Slim + Special Guests. Would explain the Calvin Harris rumours, Chems would likely be there, few other big DJs or vocalists. Can see this being one of the 'big surprises' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah it's not a strong headliner set for me. Other is usually not my cup anyway but Fatboy Slim is a great decision to put there and I'd probably go, I'm expecting Friday for him.

chazwwe Posted March 12, 2020 Report Share Posted March 12, 2020 I'm kinda surprised at the level of talent, but both Eavis always make weird hyped up comments, personally it didn't affect me because my 3 headlienrs were already Pyramids.

Tom_12 Posted March 12, 2020 Report Share Posted March 12, 2020 So Fatboy & Dua Lipa have both confirmed headlining the other but just the standard we are playing announcement from PSB. Anything in that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw his headline slot in 2010, but that was on Dance East, which actually made sense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can see this being one of the 'big surprises' I was wondering if it was a situation you see at other festivals where a dance act plays after a decent sized band. IOW and Latitude have done it in recent years. It wouldn’t exactly set the pulses racing but something like Snow Patrol with Fatboy straight afterwards would fit.

zero000 Posted March 12, 2020 Report Share Posted March 12, 2020 Are we thinking Manics and Primal Scream for slots on the other? They’re both hard to place. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
