Are they still around? Feels like ages ago since I've last heard about them. 

Played APE a few years back and were popping up at festivals in The US last year. 

But yeah it’s been a while since they released anything.

Probably a push but Romy is meant to be bringing out a solo Album and after just watching The XX set I can’t think of anything better than her headlining The Park

Is she? That’s great news!

Sounds like we could get Jamie returning before the XX then.

Been thinking recently, for this year, that Haim were quite possibly third down that Saturday with the special guests slot underneath them. If this album does well commercially as it’s doing critically then they should be a good bet to step up into the vacated sub slot.

I know I championed them to sub 2020 and it didn’t come off but let’s roll it again!

Although I think they could do it as I was also predicting them to sub Swift for a short while, I think they’ll draft in somebody new rather than bumping already booked acts up the lineup like that, especially for the Pyramid sub slot. Reckon third down is where they’ll end up next year.

Can’t see why not. I think they’d do very well in that position.

I personally think HAIM would be great other stage headliners, but they haven’t played the pyramid in a while so it would be good to see them there!

They were due to headline the main stage at Latitude which, barring The Killers and Mumford, usually has similar headliners to the other stage e.g. alt-J, New Order, Portishead, so I certainly think they're capable of it

I totally agree they can do those slots, but Lattitude is a weird one. Headliners don’t really follow a rhyme or reason at all. They definitely have a year or so where they punch a bit above their weight or get someone big on a deal.

Agreed on that, Solange was one of the other headliners when the killers did it so there's definitely no continuity around it, just hopeful it can lead to a bigger slot for them this time round as WIMPIII is an incredible album

Where did we think Bicep were playing btw? I thought it was Park but just realised they're not on the Spotify playlist.

Regardless, they're rescheduling their Brixton shows to '21 so will be active and I imagine they're the sort of lads that will want their slot on the farm.

Here’s a 2020 lineup titbit: Supergrass were subbing Other, on before Fatboy. I think he’s saying it was the Friday, but not entirely sure about that:

Also says they’ve launched an 8% DIPA with Goose Island, called Man Size Brew Sir.

I'd heard from AJ Tracey's manager that he was third on the Other that day.

AJ > Supergrass > Fatboy. Would have been heaps of fun – damn.

It’s funny because I kept predicting him lower than sub and was told there was no chance he would be.  It’s amazing how people are so certain of things that get proved incorrect time and time again. 
 

Like you, over the past few months he has become even bigger so yep, wouldn’t surprise me if he moved up the lineup somewhere.

Good go. I was thinking of doing one too but I was unsure about a few things.

Couple of points.

- I have a feeling Alicia keys was subbing Taylor.

- I think Idles will sub the other one day.

Other than that I guess it’s a likely lineup. Would like to see Doja Cat somehow incorporated in.

Not bad - think Sam Fender is more likely to headline either Other or JP though considering he's got a sold out arena tour on the horizon.

This time, no. Next time, yes.

Seems like 2021 could be a roll over for a lot of acts. Hence the chance Dua could still be headlining other even though she’s massive now.

Stick! Stick! A thousand times stick!

Fri: Mondays, Metronomy, Thubdercat, RBCF, Fender, Dizzee, Kendrick

Sat: Sports Team, J&MC, Fontaines DC, Aerosmith, Supergrass, Macca

Sun: Murder Capital, Confidence Man, Cassetboy v DJ Rubbish, Specials, Ross, Jamie Xx, Avalanches, Pet Shop Boys.

Hell of a weekend there. Some absolutely brutal clashes though:

Confidence Man v Kiwanuka,

Kendrick v Wolf Alice

AM v Idles v PSB

Ffs. We need this to happen. This post has made me mega anxious about it not being on (through no fault of the OP obviously😂)

Although Macca vs Manics would be the hardest decision I'd ever had to make in 6 Glastonbury's.

Macca vs manics vs Royal blood..😬😬

Idles vs Arctics is even worse

Yeh those 3 at the same time would be a serious headache!

I can't get into Idles. Tried and tried. Plus AM are arguably my favourite band of all time so there aren't many acts who would cause me a clash issue with them!

Is there any info on them headlining or is it just guess work?

A few whispers that they’re active next summer and Neil has heard they had been approached.

My suspicion has always been that they are the first cab off the rank if any of this year’s three don’t return.

Apparently AEG (i think, might be livenation) has booked Hillsborough park for a couple dates next summer - no certainty that it is for Arctics but I dont have another good idea for someone who would want to/be able to fill so many dates in Sheffield...
