Macca was a great heritage act for the 50th anniversary, but post that I’m struggling to get excited for it.

If you can’t get excited for a living fucking Beatle and writer of some of the most beloved songs in human history then I’m not sure you can be helped...

...especially when you endlessly prattle on about Arianna fucking Grande.

As time is going on I’m starting to feel like the ship has sailed for him. It was a cool ‘get’ for the 50th anniversary but that never happened.

I agree. It’ll be the most anticipated Glastonbury in the festival’s history; who needs some old guy singing songs no-one cares about when we’ve got Dua Lipa or Ariana.

Clarity for Supernintendo Chalmers. Yes it was tongue in cheek!

I said I’d probably see Macca if I was there. It’s not about whether I think he’s a good booking or not - of course he is. He’s an incredible booking. 

Kendrick Lamar, Taylor Swift, Dua Lipa, Ariana Grande, Billie Eilish etc are more exciting to me as bookings, but I’m not saying they are better bookings.

I got excited for him being a booking for the 50th, but two years later and plenty more acts coming into the fold / dying to tour again I can’t help but feel whether there are more interesting options. The 2 years wait has definitely made my hype wobble. Taylor has somewhat got bigger since she was first announced and Kendrick remains a mystery booking so it’s exciting.

I’l say it again. I will probably end up seeing him. But to me he’s an anniversary headliner on a now non-anniversary year.

This is some of the dumbest shit I’ve ever seen on this forum.

Couldn’t quite figure out the best way to reply to Matt’s post, but think you’ve pretty much summed it up.

‘Sorry Paul, maybe for the 60th when you matter again yeah?’

do it Emily. We give you the full thumbs up.

Never gonna happen. Although I’m willing to be proven wrong, her replacing Taylor seems like the all too obvious scenario here.

I think it's Billie, Macca and Taylor currently. I think if she was Sunday then the Belgium date would be Tuesday. With Dua Lipa and Noel Gallagher and two subs.

    • mmm... i note there are several derogatory comments about this... not sure what it says about me, but i could spend a happy afternoon here...   Simple Minds, Deacon Blue and Texas are all great live bands.   hell, i'd even be drawn away from the bar to see James Blunt (if only for a bit of a nostalgia trip for his show on the Pyramid that i admit i hugely enjoyed).   still, with all that said - there's no way i'm going to the other end of the country for it...   🙂

    • Have a great festival to those that are going, I cant wait to get there tomorrow!
    • ah i get ya.. Yeah I hate festivals that have that barrier and front section. Roskilde is gonna be the same, which I'm not looking forward to navigating. Like you say, you end up missing other stuff having to get there dead early. Luckily there's not much we're arsed about on at Roskilde though so that wont be such an issue! hahaha    
    • Not directly my expectation but my wishlist   - car seat headrest (it has been way too long these guys did Europe) - death cab for cutie - new constellations - interpol - bush - swimschool - suede - the haunted youth (should have been there this year) - flipturn   and oh yes Yumi Zouma can come any week, day, hour but this is a personal fetish with this band
