Don’t Think they could do The Park or WH?!

Perhaps with Thom having dropped his solo tour and presumably WH headline slot he’d be open to his new project taking another stage headline slot (either Park or JP if so - they’re not really a WH kind of band) but I still think a secret set is far more likely if they were to play at all.

I wouldn't believe anything that website has to say, I've never heard of it

[Justiceforcedave]

If Rage drop out of Reading and Leeds we riot.... which tbf, will make very little difference to the vibe at either site.

[CaledonianGonzo]

Not really surprised - 2022 Bruce has always felt like it was on a shoogly peg.

Desert Trip 2? Is that a thing?

They can't even spell rumour. 

[Matt42]

The organizers of classic-rock fest Desert Trip—led by Paul Tollett, who is also wheeling and dealing for the Coachella lineup—are said to be working hard to secure Robert Plant and Jimmy Page, but that booking appears shaky at best. The rest of the bill, insiders say, looks like a home run.

Thanks for copying that paragraph Matt.

Any promotor that can afford to put on Macca, Dylan, The Stones, Waters and The Who must have serious wedge to throw at them.

Yep, me too. Run The Jewels alone ain't enough to justify the £85 ticket price

Is there anyone they could replace them with that wouldn't see a stream of resales? 

I'm struggling to think of any band that could come even close?

Only someone massive like MCR, Foos, Green Day or Metallica

Yeah . But i (possibly wrongly) thought robert had decided he had had enough of all that and does what he wants. That for him its not qbout the money.

I'd take Nine Inch Nails, Guns n' Roses or maybe even Green Day. But I'd still rather get a refund.

Oh I'd take GNR all day long. I'm more interested in the MSW headliner than MSE. I'll watch RTJ but I don't care about any other band that day. To be honest though, a ton for RTJ, Halsey and GNR you can't really be annoyed by. Green Day I don't think I'd go. Their indoor show felt better than outdoor and by some distance.

 

[gfa]

I think most people would just settle unless the replacement is complete shit - reselling is a hassle/theres still other acts. as always we're not very representative

Yeah he's historically been dead against more Led Zep gigs. But maybe he'd be up for a Page and Plant reunion? Speaking of which...

Being their support act on the world tou, if RTJ we're to cancel too (and let's be honest, it's just rumours for RATM at the moment), it would be a double blow. To be honest, I'd be really disappointed with Rage if they do cancel. I appreciate Omicron has blown the numbers to bits, but the planet wasn't exactly doing great handling Delta at the time they announced Reading and Leeds. To say they wouldn't proceed with a tour unless it was 100% safe to do so seems like quite a disingenuous statement, seeing as it's doubtful we'll see that certainty for some time to come, regardless of variant. Hopefully it's either all just rumour or only their spring dates are affected. 

Halsey and Bastille are really not my thing at all but I could be persuaded to keep my ticket for any of the three acts I mentioned. Beyond that and it would be unrealistic bands with no touring plans like Rolling Stones or AC/DC (both never going to happen). 

[Matt42]

Speaking of the Rolling Stones… could they be an outside bet here? A surprise swoop in like the Who in 2015?

They said they were doing a festival tour in that press statement they put out…?

Consequence of Sound is reporting that Kendrick and Tyler the Creator were approached to headline Coachella but they both passed. Really not looking good for Kendrick headlining glastonbury if true... https://consequence.net/2022/01/kanye-west-billie-eilish-coachella-2022/

[jparx]

I don’t think the door is closed on Kendrick yet, but I certainly have the least amount of faith in him yet. I’d be thinking Taylor’s odds were creeping up as a result but something tells me she won’t be on the road now until the situation is more calm.
