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

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

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

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.

 

Baltimore? Will he be holding the corners?

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?

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...

Sounds like a job for Ricky and the lads

      So we've signed a Horny Czech, and Bruno's turned up the training camp instead of doing Isak's nonsense.   Still not sure I believe Bruno's staying mind, but glad he's not doing the sh*t Arsenal are asking him to do to lower the price. If they want him they can stump up.   My suspicion is that whichever of Madrid/Man City don't start next season with Rodri will go for Bruno, and one of them will come in while Arsenal have f**ked about trying to get him cheap, which while I absolutely want to keep him, would still be good enough bants and a nice middle finger that I wouldn't mind it so much. I just wish we'd report Arsenal for tapping up.   If rumours are to be believed, we're after 2 more defensive signings, and an attacking player, on top of a replacement if Bruno leaves, having already signed a LW, 2 CMs, a GK, and some youth players. Huge churn, but apart from a couple of Bazou Toure's games for Ivory Coast at the world cup, I've not seen any of them play. Over 2 summers we've basically changed our entire team aside from the CBs.

      I think the level of headliners Bloodstock get is varied    There's been bands who have gone on to play Download in quite a low spot like Meshuggah, Behemoth, Opeth etc.    Then they've had years like 2025 where you can argue that all three headliners are download main stage sub level    Knocked Loose right now i'd argue are 3rd down on main/opus headliner level while EC and FFDP are borderline main stage sub
