I don't think they're likely but if they were offered a Pyramid headline slot, I think they'd take it regardless of the money. It's when people suggest they take the lower money for the lower slot where it's hard to see.

When looking at headliners that would satisfy any 'rock band/singer' quota, of the ones that are free and willing, it wouldn't raise too many eyebrows to see them given it.

They’d certainly smash the gaff up.

Tribes

They actually said at a concert between songs that they were about to play in the corner of an English field... I think they were talking about the Pyramid Stage.

Mike Stoyanov stood on the Pyramid stage be like ‘Are you fucking kidding me? Is this a job interview for fucking Goldman Sachs? Fuck off man!’

Highly likely to mean nothing, but there is a picture going round of Kendrick hanging out with Kanye and his girlfriend (I don't know her name, sorry)

Could mean they're working together, could just be friends spending time together

Unless there’s another picture circulating than the one I’ve seen doing the rounds, that’s not Kendrick - it’s Fivio Foreign who was featured on Off the Grid and probably Donda 2 as well:

A headliner for a smaller stage, a Janelle Monae type of announcement would be my bet

Ah I didn't know, that is the one I meant. I saw it on Kanye's sub and the OP said it was Kendrick. I honestly wouldn't know who Kendrick was if he broke into my flat so my bad 🤷🏻‍♂️

I reckon we get a big-ish name. Probably not a headliner but maybe a name to do a big pop set?

Fuck it, let's just say it's a Harry announcement.

I'm taking my daughters this year for the first time, the eldest has had me listening to Elish and now Styles given the latest rumours.

We're not exactly in for some happy smiley evenings here are we? 😬

Cause at this point its just a tired thing to even talk about. Every year is a Strokes year and its never happened. Once you stop hoping for it, thats when it might materialize.

Saw them headline Electric picnic a few years back and was very disappointed  under an hour and struggled to hold my attention for that long. 

[The Nal]

The Strokes aren't going to be able to pull off a headline performance in front of 80k people.

2 or 3 decent tunes on the first album and this is kind of the best the've managed since. Weak mid tempo indie. 

This is in encore song. *insert Partridge shrug*

 

[Justcalledtosay]

The Strokes headlining the Pyramid would be incredible in my book.
