Well she was doing a festival headline tour in 2020. If she reschedules and Taylor doesn't, seems an obvious replacement to me.

The festivals she was headlining in 2020 were ones she hadn’t already played on this album tour, I think I’m right in saying. It’s easy to forget that she played in 2019.

Especially after watching the set.

Yeah, she'll need to release that second album of course.

Kendrick Lamar for AM doesn't seem like a fair trade.

Kendrick / Macca / Lana (if new album is well reviewed)

Next year is next year though. She could have a new record out by then, and suddenly doing the festival tour could be for the new album rather than a second leg.

Wouldn’t complain at all of LDR headlines.

feel she is ready but she would need to work on stage presence. Music alone, she is more than ready. NFR played in its entirety could be a classic with the right staging.

When Emily Eavis was on radio 1 the other day she was asked if Coldplay, Arctic Monkeys or ABBA would be playing in 2021. She dismissed Coldplay and ABBA as not being there, but didnt even mention Arctic Monkeys. Might not mean anything just haven't seen anyone else mention it. 

Anyone have a link to somewhere I can re-listen to this?

It was on Thursday afternoon somewhere around 1-2pm sorry I dont have link though. Maybe through iplayer?

I'm sure this has been discussed already, but I reckon the 1975 were gonna play some sort of secret set this year, and are pencilled in for next year. So my guess is 1975 will be kept as a headliner for 2021.

BBC Sounds app might work, or their direct website if you scroll to the bottom of the DJ’s page. Not used either for a while though.

Gaga // Macca // Monkeys

With The 1975 doing a secret set on The Park.

Skip to 20 minutes in. I've just realised she said for this year, not next year though but still she didnt dismiss them or make anything of it.

How about The Weeknd? 👀

Most people seem to prefer Wednesday or Thursday.

Yeah Emily pretty much ignored that comment about Arctics.

Whats your current guess?

Hard to say but if pushed I’d go with Arctics, McCartney, Swift right now. Reckon Kendrick would be the hold out and Arctics seem like an obvious one they’d have lined up for 2021 already. If Swift is out, Gaga to replace her.

Next year is still this year as far as live music is concerned.

I think instances of acts who weren't already working on new albums using the enforced downtime to work on another record should be treated as more of a surprise than something to be expected, as is happening a lot on here.

I mean, she's sold all the tickets to her arena tour and is already headlining festivals. Why not position the album to sell more tickets and headline festivals again in 2022 and 2023 rather than putting it out in the middle of the first album tour? At the rate she's going she could headline stadiums on album two so keep it until then would be the smart move.

Little thing, she says 'all of our bands booked up', She totally omits from the question on AM and says everything is booked for next year. Was this interview yesterday?

[Gilgamesh69]

All these Billie stans are sending me west, y'all are talking as if she's the next Kate Bush lol
