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.

Sheeran is/was one of the biggest acts on the planet, and arguably the most "locals friendly" of the 2017 trio.

And by god was it boring

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.

@eFestivals - how strong is the info you have about Macca and Kendrick, compared to your info about Billie?

About equal don't expe t any of it to be wrong

So yet again Michael won’t get his Fleetwood Mac Sunday on the pyramid.

Was their any indication over what days they’d be playing at all?

Pretty disappointed if Taylor is the one who ends up missing out. Wasn't that fussed about the headliners when announced, but have given her a decent amount of listening time while working from home.

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.

He’d rather Jack.

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

Showed your age there, Hugh.

As have I in responding.

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.

Billie Eilish's mother was 3 years old when the Beatles released Love Me Do.

Mine was 2, is it my turn to light up the pyramid in 2023? Can I defer it to Foals?

Are Foals bigger than Billie Eilish’s mum? And has she heard of Stormzy?

My mum was 1 then, but I was born 10 years before Billie, so now I don't know what to think.

Except that I get to co-headline alongside @priest17?

I was born 9 years before Billie so the numbers add up, do we have 90 mins of material? Surely our mum's have heard of us.
