Yeah I’d assumed that was the case but pretty clear he’s not rescheduling now. 

Sure hope we get something a bit better than Gorillaz... but my money’s still on The 1975

That's heavy. I'd like to see Gorillaz but as a replacement for Kendrick, that's just awful

[jparx]

Huh. It was just mentioned yesterday on the RW thread that any announcement was delayed with the current spike in Belgium. 

RW looking pretty meh to be honest. Nothing really standing out.

[Gilgamesh69]

Can we have both Swift and Gaga next year please?

[Gnomicide]

Pearl Jam for Pinkpop alongside RHCP. Who did they have in for this year?

 

Edit: GnR.

Maybe the Belgians are more up for footage of dying marine mammals than the Glasto crowds are.

Sure, but he was a given. And as much as I like Thom, he's not an enticing enough name to make up for 3 other days of really dull acts.

I'm very okay with this, you know.

There's no way Kendrick isn't going to be creating something intense, powerful, meaningful and important right now. Seeing clips of protesters with fists raised chanting "We gon' be alright!" speaks volumes about how important a figure he is right now, and you get the feeling he's got something important to say, don't ya.

With the relationship with Damon, I reckon Gorillaz will defo take the Friday headlining slot.

Gorillaz // Macca // Taylor (out of faith Dessner has persuaded her and its one of the ones she wants to do). if not Gaga or Billie (I'm not starting that discussion again btw).

Yup - he'll be all over recreating the greatest professional embarrassment of his career.

Have you seen the video for There's No Other Way?

That's the man Damon is, he couldnt resist redoing it. By all accounts his performances got better after that with Gorillaz so maybe it'll be better, I love a bit of Gorillaz so that would be good, nothing near Kendrick. Shit Gorillaz v Thom Yorke is horrendous for me.

Yup. Very interested by the rumours that he’s gone back to the drawing board with whatever album he had planned.

Personal opinion innit

[henry bear]

Can’t imagine Gorillaz coming off the bench a second time

[CaledonianGonzo]

Not when they could punt it the way of The 1975

Honestly thought that comeback was directed at Dessner rather than Damon for a second.

This is Dessner's career highlight

I meant The National's err less than sublime Pyramid Sub.
