Ken months ago said this was Paul McCartney… but in the overseas section of the forums people are saying it’s Springsteen. If they announce and it isn’t Macca, what does this mean for Glasto chances? I don't think any confirmation out of Glastonbury would affect Macca. He wasn't playing any festival on 2020 if I am not wrong... I am still in the boat of Billie - Macca - Kenny and if Kenny is out Adele is in. Edited October 25, 2021 by AlexOvd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jannybruck Posted October 25, 2021 Report Share Posted October 25, 2021 Macca's been doing a pretty substantial press jaunt around his book at the moment, and I'd be very surprised if this promo and retrospective of his career didn't lead into an announcement of live dates next summer.

The point is that I don't really see Paul as a touring booking, so I don't see any impact if he doesn't confirm TW Classic (or at least this is what I want to think) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Somto Unigwe Raphael Posted October 25, 2021 Report Share Posted October 25, 2021 Macca will still headline but frankly he’s never written a song as good as Slow Night So Long or Joe’s Head. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jack.194 Posted October 25, 2021 Report Share Posted October 25, 2021 I really think we’ve got 3 completely new headliners, based solely on the uncertainty surrounding Paul and Kendrick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PolygonWindow Posted October 25, 2021 Report Share Posted October 25, 2021 (edited) Nout wrong with a bit of speculation but just caveat all your posts with this as a footer: ’despite the above, kendrick and macca are both still headlining’ EDIT: Adele 😂 Edited October 25, 2021 by PolygonWindow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The question now is whether she’d hold Glastonbury above all the other dates it’s become apparent she isn’t doing. Is that possible? Well, she has a second home in the UK. She has close friends who would sell her the idea of playing. But she has a gold-standard management team who would manage all of her tour dates. Glastonbury would have to be personal to her to insist on it. I’d like to believe that’s possible. But it would also mean she’d be committing to a singular date that’s inaccessible to her fan base. That strikes me as unlikely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
balthazarstarbuck Posted October 25, 2021 Report Share Posted October 25, 2021 Still can’t see her playing before the whole shebang is re-recorded tbh. Put her with Relton in 2023. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As much as I would move heaven and earth to have Swift back in 2022 it sounds to me like she’s busy. The re-recordings and her personal life with Joe sound like the priority right now. It really wouldn’t surprise me if they plan to get married at some point next year and that’s why a summer of touring is off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would her fan base really be that irked by her playing a single UK date? She could feasibly do something for a chunk of her fan base as a fairly last minute warm up gig for instance. I like you would like to think she looks at Glastonbury perhaps above any other festivals. I think the ethos both of the festival itself and Emily's proactive nature to ensuring females have an equal platform / representation on the lineup is likely to resonate. I don't see how re-recording her back catalogue has an impact on her ability to play live dates as others have mentioned though? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Somto Unigwe Raphael Posted October 25, 2021 Report Share Posted October 25, 2021 It would go against Neil’s info that the headliners were Billie Eilish, Paul McCartney and Kendrick Lamar. Even if Kendrick ends up no longer being in the frame it seems most likely that Billie Eilish replaced Taylor Swift. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can’t believe she’d go to the effort of getting her band back together and rehearsing a new show, with a new production, with all the effort and logistics that goes into it, just to play one gig that pays peanuts.

ITK19889 Posted October 25, 2021 Report Share Posted October 25, 2021 (edited) 13 hours ago, Suprefan said: Well damn, sorry if Pitchfork rubbed you the wrong way cause they gave your fave artist one bad review and you dont think what they do for their festival means anything to the landscape. Theyve been had at least one female headliner since 2015 and had a 50/50 gender split since 2013. Plus a total of 3 occasions of 2 female headliners. So a smaller less meaningful event in your eyes with less resources has been able to do that and Glasto hasnt, so what does that tell you. But if you need something a bit larger then FYF Fest 2018 had all female headliners. or The Essence Festival which has been around since 1995 and has had all female headliners a few times, but since it caters to african american audiences you probably would not care. But who is counting unless a white festival organizer does it. How about all queer headliners? FYF Fest had that in 2015 until Frank Ocean dropped out. And have you ever heard of Lilith Fair which was all female artists from top to bottom on their line ups when it was around over 20 years ago? So quit while youre ahead and have respect for the ones that are actually doing it right now and dont have to seek headlines about what theyre doing, they just do it and history will show that they were ahead of everyone else. 🙈🙈🙈😫 Edited October 25, 2021 by ITK19889 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
