With the license extending over so many years, do the locals really have that much sway over things any more? Griffiths can yabber away all she likes in the MDC meetings, but her reach isn't what it used to be, surely.

I think if things came to a head, Glasto would in win a court case if they were denied a license one year because the locals demanded a certain type of artist. That is not relevant in any way for the event to be able to happen. I dont hear the locals for Coachella complaining about not getting a certain headliner on the poster. Probably because the region gets around a $700 million boost in its economy due to the festival happening.

Billie Kenny Macca

Strong Strong Strong

Only seen Radiohead on the Pyramid in the 4 times I’ve been. Chuffed (tho QOTSA on the Friday is probs where I will end up).

Praying Thom Yorke and Kenny don’t clash again 🥲

How confident is the kendrick prediction?

Neil (eFestivals) has info that Billie, Macca, Kendrick is our trio. He got Billie right so pretty likely that the Kendrick info is right too.

And that Billie info was a little while back too.

The late news on Radio 4 just did a piece about Billie being the youngest headliner and then went on to talk about a rumour of all female headliners of Billie, Adele and Taylor...it is the BBC though.

Of course they wanna make it seem as if its possible. Emily has said she wants to do that eventually and Im sure there would be tons of complaints about it anyway. Or worse, all 3 headliners being POC or LGBTQ.

Three pop soloists unlikely.

Wolf Alice, Fleetwood Mac, Billie Eilish.

Maybe even less likely. But I think much stronger as an all female (fronted) bill.

Can you imagine if they pulled out the ultimate booking hail mary and ended up with Billie, Adele and Taylor on the Pyramid, but then also something like Muse and Kasabian on the Other?!

The Radio X comments section would be in shambles. Could definitely see Kasabian headlining other though

Nice to pop back in and see genuine rumours after a shit show of life for the last 2 years. Billie, Kendrick and Macca is a great trio. I can't wait for all the others to be confirmed for the other stages etc for a bumper packed card with people desperate to just play the festival after so long.

      sub yes I could see but I don't think they get 1hr 15, a headliner starting at 18:15 though is unlikely. Even the recent co-headlines that have had like 1hr 15 then a 1hr 30 after were on 8pm or just before, you are trailing behind more than 1.5 hours then. In that scenario some 3rd down bands are only starting at 18:15 and some haven't lol. I agree they won't not book them due to this but it won't be 6 headliners. It would be 5 headliners and you wouldn't want to see 5 headliners booked but Biffy were to not be thouhgt of as an option for one. Wolf Alice on the other hand could sub no bother and you'd think nothing of it. I'm not so sure Biffy would get headline though after the festival choice in Kendal this year.

      Definitely. UKIP also used Merkel welcoming 1 million Afgans to Europe in 2015 during the brexit vote.   Politicians in other countries within the EU know the are going to lose voters to parties to the right of them over stuff like this and they've no control over it.

      I think it will very much vary on who there is to book who they know will sell out a day.    They’ve co-headline and full headline stuff in future, there no reason at all they won’t do it again, even if it means cutting someone’s set by 15 mins or having a band less in a big bands day…   They’re not going to not book Foo fighters and instead get the equivalent of Florence and C&S just to not have a band do a big set…   …unless of course they think it will make them more money…

      Maybe some right wing leaders like Meloni are just playing to their base, like Reform have been here talking about them ending up at Calais.
