FloorFiller Posted September 16, 2020 Report Share Posted September 16, 2020 Echo the sentiment that Glastonbury is probably/hopefully in a better position than some other festivals to get Kendrick back what with them having the later announcement. Some festivals clearly felt the need to get their lineups out and not hang about for any late comer headliners that became available but here’s hoping Glastonbury still have space for him (which I’m sure they do). Incredibly unexpected and great news. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Incredibly unexpected and great news. My theory is seeing as most festivals were offering punters the opportunity to roll tickets over they felt they needed to get a lineup out as quickly as possible to stop cancellations and having to pay out refunds. Given that Glastonbury never worries about releasing a lineup before selling tickets they need not concern themselves and have been to wait.

henry bear Posted September 16, 2020 Report Share Posted September 16, 2020 I’d imagine too that they’re reluctant to release too much information until they feel it’s likely to go ahead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, if Taylor really is out (which I won't accept defeat on just yet), and Gaga is off the table, then that looks like the best possible trio.

Also I’ve been thinking. What about a scenario where Kendrick, Paul, and AM are headlining with Florence / Dua in the equation if someone falls through? Florence was originally booked as a sub last time and she could be booked again. I feel like Dua could be moved to a sub with a view to headline if an international act can’t come over.

I think most people would be more welcome to her guesting with Gaga and nothing more for now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jparx Posted September 17, 2020 Report Share Posted September 17, 2020 We need this new Lorde record. She is right there in the headliner conversation when it comes out and I’d have her at the top of my list of fresh acts to headline. Recently picked up Melodrama on vinyl and it really is one of the top records of the decade. Watching back the Other set as well and she’s just a superstar. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am a massive Lorde fan but I see her more of a Robyn type than a top billing artist. I worry that her leaving 5+ years gaps between albums for an artist of her size is just not smart career wise. She has a moderate sized fanbase but outside of that I reckon a lot of people have somewhat moved on from her. If Lorde comes back she could headline other stage or maybe even JP but not the pyramid. Shes old news but I don’t think she cares about it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The songwriting is so good that she is very able to have massive pop bangers in the middle of a record and fit perfectly, so I wouldn't be so sure. Always interested in seeing what she does next. But agree I don't think she's going to be headliner sized if she keeps the 4+ years between records thing going. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was a bit of a hit but not nearly as big as Royals, even though it was definitely the more obvious ‘banger’ and I expected it to be huge at the time. I think she’ll continue have moderate hits but nothing that’s ever gonna bother the upper reaches of any charts imo. She cemented her place in the indie pantheon so quickly that she’s pretty much got free reign on where she goes next so I wouldn’t be surprised to see her get weird with her music, or equally just go full banger-fest. Looking forward to it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Green Light is a great song and a fantastic lead single but it wasn’t really big with anyone who didn’t like her already. Thats why I think the Robyn comparison is the best. I don’t think Lorde really wins over any new fans. She just tends to hold the ones she’s got pretty well. Plus the gaps between albums I think is a big point. It’s alright if you’re Adele, Radiohead, ya da ya da because they’ve got an awful lot of people invested in their every move. Lorde is still only 2 albums deep. While her second album is probably one of my favourite albums of the decade, in sales it totally tanked. But this is the thing. Lorde isn’t bothered about sales, so I don’t see her trying to go for a mega commercial effort with her next release either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
