kalifire Posted January 6, 2021 Report Share Posted January 6, 2021 Unpopular opinion, but Coldplay’s 2016 set was better than Radiohead’s in 2017. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have you also ever noticed that Muse have headlined every 6 years since 2004, noticed that last night as I was watching bits from all 3 headline sets.

CaledonianGonzo Posted January 6, 2021 Report Share Posted January 6, 2021 I know. But career-length aside, the criteria for a heritage headliner is a hit-filled back catalogue stuffed with classic tunes. And on that basis, it's still Swizzle.

AM are still easily the biggest British band going right now. Calling them a heritage act is just stupid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

circus92 Posted January 6, 2021 Report Share Posted January 6, 2021 If were not careful this will turn into another 1975 / Foals debate. For what its worth, its not even close - Coldplay are significantly bigger on pretty much every measure Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

priest17 Posted January 6, 2021 Report Share Posted January 6, 2021 Colplday probably just edge it popularity wise but far far fewer people actively dislike AM if that makes sense. I still really hope AM leave it over a decade before coming back, I can see lots of eye rolling around here that it's them again because they're everyone's first guess every year for a solid 6 months so feels like they always do it. I haven't seen them since the '13 tour though, kinda miss em (I'd rather go to their own show or APE though). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy0808 v5 Posted January 6, 2021 Report Share Posted January 6, 2021 Chris Martin watching every Pyramid act from backstage. AM waiting a decade means only 2023 for them, Coldplay actually need to wait a decade; but they won’t. We’ll have had another Chris Martin rainbow wristband special before 2025.

dentalplan Posted January 7, 2021 Report Share Posted January 7, 2021 Coldplay way bigger than Arctic Monkeys by the way, locally and globally. Not with folk who you’ll actually talk to about music but they shift stadium tickets like you wouldn’t believe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
