Which would explain a bit why the tweet announcing Eilish as headliner made effort to point out she was the youngest ever.

Maybe. But theyre going to point out a first regardless.

 

Kaisers gonna be biblical with Noel subbing.

Kaiser Chiefs joke run into the ground more than Pierce O’ Brien within about 20 minutes. Mental.

Can’t imagine them actively promoting Macca as the oldest ever headliner though? That would be a bit odd.

If McCartney headlines we will have, in the same year, the oldest ever and the youngest ever headliners, right?

Debatable. Most (if not all) of Ash were younger then Billie will be when they headlined.

I think they were careful to say youngets solo artist. 2 of Ash were younger.

Also Ash weren't booked to headline, they just ended up doing it because they were still on site when the actual headliner (Steve Winwood?) didn't turn up

Huh. This seemed wrong but is absolutely right - Tim Wheeler was younger than Billie will be, albeit by just a couple of weeks. The things you learn on this forum… 😁

So what are people's thoughts on this 2pm tour announcement for Macca? Rules him out totally, or a nice, juicy GSH in there and we can upgrade the pencil to a marker pen on the prediction board?

Can’t see it ruling him out. If he was gonna do only one show this year I think it’d be be Glastonbury, with COVID obviously still being a thing.

Someone’s mentioned one of the dates being rumoured for July, so if that’s true I expect there’ll be a nice fat gap for Glasto in the middle.

Yeah I’m betting this McCartney announcement has a big ol’ Glastonbury gap in there which can calm any remaining nerves we may have about him being booked. I just can’t see him touring this year and not fulfilling his prior Glastonbury commitment - he’s not exactly at an age where he can just keep delaying it down the line, and I doubt he’d just bail out entirely either.

Given that a few sources here indicated it was still going to be Macca and Kendrick, despite the evidence at the time suggested neither were touring, it seems he had signed on the dotted line. If he’s gone for US$ over Glastonbury I’ll be very unimpressed, but I don’t think that’ll be the case.

Not sure if it’s been posted already but another source has Macca playing Baltimore in the US:

It’s happening.

So if the tour gets announced and he's busy over glasto weekend, do we get stuck back in a wormhole of florence/harry/how much sleep and old man needs whilst crossing continents?

[Stokesy10]

Hope he doesn't do too many shows before GF and burn himself out...

Indeed. Cat would be well and truly amongst the pigeons.

Only for a couple of weeks then we get some definitive news and find out we were right and it was Kaiser Chiefs all along.

He can't headline anyway as he's too old according to some on here...
