I was annoyed that I left early for Billie which ended up being a bit of an underwhelming set. I'm a fan but it didn't live up to my expectations. Still catching up with this thread but have to agree with this. Did exactly the same thing and wished I hadn’t. Enjoyed it that little I actually left her set early and went back to camp. Although granted I could still hear her from Oxlyers I would have done the same if I was camped the other side of the site. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SwedgeAntilles Posted November 15, 2019 Report Share Posted November 15, 2019 (edited) Looks like they're last on the bill for those Killers dates (behind Sam Fender and Blossoms) so I think it's safe to say their headlining days are behind them. Edit: just read the poster properly, they're playing different dates to Blossoms and SF but point still stands, they're not headliner level any more.

They're just supporting different days, rather than being below them on the bill. But, yes, as much as I love them, the days of them headlining a major stage are well behind them. Mid-Other or the Friday opening act would be their level now I'd guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still love the manics even if I wasn't a big fan of the last album. The tour wasn't great either but Nicky was obviously going through some tough personal shit. They had to only play to half an arena when I seen them on that tour although the anniversary show of "Everything Must Go" was a sell out in the Hydro and was an amazing gig a year earlier.

It's just been announced that they will be supporting The Killers on 3 dates of their upcoming tour. Other dates have support from Sam Fender and Blossoms. The Manic dates are: Tuesday 9 June - Bristol Ashton Gate Stadium (with Manic Street Preachers) Thursday 11 June - Coventry Ricoh Stadium (with Manic Street Preachers) Saturday 13 June - Middlesborough Riverside Stadium (with Manic Street Preachers) so they will be active leading up to Glastonbury.

henry bear Posted November 15, 2019 Report Share Posted November 15, 2019 Fair play to the Manics - they’ve headlined most of the big festivals here and seem happy to play whatever slot they get. Within 4 years of headlining Glasto they were back subbing Moby. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know how much bands adhere to their stated ambitions at the start of their careers - and the Manics made a few - but I recall it was their MO to play whenever and wherever in order to become as big as possible. I remember them getting stick for supporting Bon Jovi at Wembley in (I think) 1993. I've only ever seen them the once, and that was so long ago they were still a four piece.

Yeah this was what prompted my question.

uscore Posted November 18, 2019 Report Share Posted November 18, 2019 Fair play Paul McCartney would be quite a coup for the Other Stage bookers. I'd probably go and see Foals on the Pyramid though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
