I can see all the reasons for Styles to play - massive name, playing Wembley, headlining Coachella, etc, all that and I don't doubt or deny he's a big get for the festival...

But purely on a personal level it would be so depressing and crushingly underwhelming if/when he's announced, especially when we could have had Macca.

It's the traditional eFests' full circle. We'll keep cycling until there's news.

Now it had died down, and we are back to discussing, I am finding myself for some reason falling back on Macca/Kenny.

Back to life, Mac to reality

when/ how did we find out Taylor was no longer in the running? 

We didn’t. It’s speculation based on assumption.

There was a promoter in Europe, can't remember which festival, who had booked her for 2020 but said she wasn't active this year.

Yeah I really want(ed??) Macca, I feel like he is an act I'm destined never to see!

It was Open'er booker.

Did I? That was generous! Must've had a few.

Ill downgrade that now to the Avalon. 

This is abysmal. 

 

Love this tune.

The Strokes have more tunes than AM for me. The Modern Age, You Only Live Once, Reptilia, Someday, New York City Cops, Taken For A Fool, Under Cover Of Darkness, 12:51, Juicebox,... 

Their last album was more cracking than AM's last effort too.

My last album was better that AM's last effort lol.

That aside, I don't think The Strokes song it too bad.

Right, if they have booked Harry Styles for the Pyramid then I demand they book the motherfucking National to headline the Other as compensation.

It's only fair.

Aye. He's a particularly massive kick in the bollocks as a Macca replacement. I'm sure the festival won't see it as a "replacement" in the same sense we would, but I can't imagine much crossover between those stoked for Macca and fans of Harry Styles.

I’ve worked it out.

Emilys kids are choosing the line up this year.

Check out the Lawks page. We have worked out McCartney has to be playing on the Saturday night

Macca was the only headliner I was really excited about, we’ll see Billie as my daughters and wife are really into her. 
If Harry replaces anyone I would hope it would be Kendrick, who none of our group are interested in (most haven’t even heard of him). 
Regardless, we’ll be there for Harry and I think it will be an amazing headline set.

Kendrick will be one for the ages though, if he's there.

Kendrick has to be there. Can't lose him AND Macca...

[the wonderwhy]

Out of the two Kendrick seems like the more likely to be dabbing down imo

I know people on here seem to love him but, for me, I wouldn’t have the slightest interest in seeing him. Harry, I’d be excited to see. Seems like a lot of people discount him immediately based on X Factor and 1D or are snidey about his younger audience…I just like his music. 
 

Just hope he doesn’t clash with Little Symz.

If he disappears you'll find me screaming in the hotel room.

The evils of no Kendrick were all around me

If it is Hazza, would make a great deal of sense to have Wolf Alice subbing considering they're opening for him on his Stadium tour too.

Moving WA into that slot means moving Noel out, most likely Other headliner… then where does Dua go?

Noel goes to headline Neighbourhood Festival, Dua headlines in 2023.
