sisco Posted April 21, 2020 Report Share Posted April 21, 2020 Personally from all the guesswork I’d be surprised if HAIM weren’t supposed to be on the Pyramid. They were on the other last time out, personally can’t see it again. Robyn and The Specials for Sub and 3rd for the 50th Anniversary seems terribly weak. If you’re putting Supergrass on the other they’re at least subbing it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
priest17 Posted April 21, 2020 Report Share Posted April 21, 2020 The disrespect for that West Holt's lineup is crazy. The worst thing is I already gave all my time to that park line up. This year would have killed me if it'd gone ahead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jparx Posted April 21, 2020 Report Share Posted April 21, 2020 It was going to be Ross > HAIM > Robyn > Taylor because it's too perfect to ever actually happen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt42 Posted April 21, 2020 Author Report Share Posted April 21, 2020 I don’t think HAIM were on pyramid. It’s so strange how they’ve been booked for the other stage three times in a row now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like i say, I’d be surprised if it’s not Back to the Pyramid for them, but hey, I’ve been wrong lots before Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure who, mind. Anyway here's how I could have seen the Pyramid shaping up with day splits. Again, apologies if I've missed any info and put someone on the wrong day. Fri: Kendrick Lamar, Lana Del Rey, Elbow, Anderson .Paak & the Free Nationals, Kacey Musgraves, Rufus Wainwright, Imelda May Sat: Paul McCartney, Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds, Aerosmith, Camila Cabello, Crowded House, The Staves, Herbie Hancock Sun: Taylor Swift, Robyn, The Specials, Diana Ross, Candi Stanton, Lianne La Havas obviously there's all sorts of combinations, but on this one, I'd swap Elbow with Robyn, as I don't see her being sub at all. Probably swap Staves and Hancock around too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I probably would’ve caught something of at least a few of those on food alone to be fair. My standard 90 minute boogie at the brothers bar on the Thursday too.

Gilgamesh69 Posted April 21, 2020 Report Share Posted April 21, 2020 I'm a little surprised that Nadine Shah isn't on either JP, WH or Park tbh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt42 Posted April 21, 2020 Author Report Share Posted April 21, 2020 I’ve just remembered something. Who was it that said there was a band on the pyramid on the Sunday that wouldn’t be out of place headlining West Holts. They were definitely talking about the specials. I love when leakers actually turn out to be telling the truth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Suprefan Posted April 22, 2020 Report Share Posted April 22, 2020 With the acts that are left, lots of room for additions. If they evenly split those names between the last 2 stages that still leaves a couple open spots per day per stage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Based on last years numbers (and if we get 19 on each of the pyramid/other playlists). Pyramid - 2 Other - 6 West Holts - 5 JP - 7 (9 if you discounted Rews and Weaves) The Park - 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure if they later confirmed it was Pyramid but that’s when it went up on eFests as Sunday arvo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt42 Posted April 22, 2020 Author Report Share Posted April 22, 2020 (edited) 2 minutes ago, Ddiamondd said: Then again, that's only if Thundercat could have played twice in a day (with Kendrick too, he listed on his website). I'd expect so, 3rd from top is about a 6-7pm performance. But if he kicked around, he'd be subbing Saturday. What messes this all up as well is that sometimes the stages don’t necessarily go in order of act popularity. Some artists might be placed so they don’t clash with similar artists on other stages. Basically it’s hard to do the lineup for all of the stages with what we’ve got. I’d say the headlines and subs look right though.

I'm sure that was like 1pm(ish). 4th/3rd from top makes sense to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingcrawler Posted April 22, 2020 Report Share Posted April 22, 2020 (edited) I think West Holts is always the hardest one to guess. Going by the acts on the playlist I’d expect something like this but I could be way off on the size of some acts. Thom Yorke TMB, Kelis, Seun Kuti, Black Uhuru Isley Brothers, Brittany Howard, Danny Brown, Tom Misch & Yussef Dayes Kano, TLC, Snarky Puppy, Thundercat Edited April 22, 2020 by kingcrawler Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sisco Posted April 22, 2020 Report Share Posted April 22, 2020 2 minutes ago, Ddiamondd said: I'd say so, yeah. Perhaps not sub but no lower than 3rd. He's really well known, got lots of underground hits and as close to a crossover jazz/funk guy as you're gonna get, thanks to the Kendrick & FlyLo & Mac Miller effect. Interesting @kingcrawler having Brittany sub. I know the album last year was big critically, did it break her solo in the UK? or is the Alabama Shakes link nudging her up by proxy? (You're right that she'd be above Tom & Yussef, I called that wrong) Headlined BBC radio 6 too (not sure whether that makes her subbing anymore likely) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwedgeAntilles Posted April 22, 2020 Report Share Posted April 22, 2020 Just realised that, with the stages released so far (and best guesses on placements), I would indeed have been stuffed for a Sunday night headliner. Hope that's one of the few changes for next year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope that's one of the few changes for next year. This is the first year where I’d have a solid headliner every night. Just goes to show how things are different. I’d see all three headliners, but I’d be alternating between Dua Lipa and Paul McCartney. There is a chance though that I’d go to see Dua and probably end up staying for the whole thing.

Friday looks the weakest (or at least most standard fare), King Kenny excepted. You could imagine quite a lot of people without an option they're actually that buzzed about. That's interesting. Park is guesswork unless others here have better intel obviously. Manics, Macca and Primal Scream on sat night. Surely not?! * just noticed Manics were either Friday or Saturday.
