And you call yourself Matt ‘in the know’ 42. I don’t think so!

You should know this, we were children in the mid-90s.

I'm inclined to think that The 1975 won't be a headliner next year, it would be no different from Liam Gallagher doing Finsbury and subbing Glastonbury which he didn't do until the following year. 

I also think Glastonbury would be a solo UK gig with a much later in the summer headline show or even the following summer.

Unfortunately for anyone looking forward to this, that happens to be me 29th birthday which I'm fairly sure is many, many years away.

This is your worst post on this entire website.

I had to reverse image search to find out who this band is. I remember them being on lineups that I used to attend but I know nothing about them.

Primavera finally cancelled. They will announce the line up at the beginning of June for the 2021 edition.

Tribes is a blast from the past. Another band that NME hyped up just to abandon.. poor blokes.

Are we ruling out any possible DJ’s headlining? Or are there too many options to keep them for the Other stage?

Just thinking of Calvin Harris & Martin Garrix.

Seems a bit too late really. There were a couple of years in the mid 10s where it could have happened. With Calvin Harris taking headline slots at some festivals. 

However it seems to have fizzled a bit. I don’t think the demand or mass attention on djs at the moment is the same as it was back then. Things move fast.

I think the reason for this is more niche dance acts - Bicep, Solardo etc became quite mainstream, and stole some of calvins fans probably. Booking Calvin to headline has probably lost its wow factor for some.

I remember getting really into them for about two weeks in 2011. Now I can't think of a single song they did.

More importantly, when are WU LYF headlining?

Country Joe and The Fish

Deep Purple

Steve Mason

Am I wrong or was Today when BST was going to give some update?

It was supposed to be, aye. Nothing yet - not sure if there will be anything at this rate.

Ken in the RW thread is hinting that Kendrick has not rescheduled.

Doesn't sound definitive though. "For the moment".

I can see both Taylor and Kendrick not wanting to commit to these rescheduled shows yet, and that might be what's fuelled the BST non-announcement. They both might end up doing it, but they're not booked yet.

It’s a real fucker headliner-wise that this happened this year of all years, as Emily & co. obviously had to work hard and have been having long discussions to lock in three headliners who might not usually be willing to play for the reduced fee. Any other year I’m sure getting headliners back would be fairly easy, or if not, another equally good one would be available, but all three of this years could just flake out for a number of reasons and it’s hard to think of any realistic equal replacements (for my personal taste, anyway - I’m sure there are tons of people hoping a more standard band or two replaces some of them).
