[Heather90]

Is there specific info putting first Aid Kit on the Park? I'd have expected early-ish on Pyramind

Pretty sure that's where they played last time. Usually they like to change things up a bit.

I imagine people are just thinking they did that slot last time. Does make the most sense imo but they might be moved about for variety

Unless the info was that he is definitely playing Other, I would say he is a potential Pyramid sub. Arguably as big as Wolf Alice/ Lorde who are being touted as the current options.

Info was he’s third down Other. Agree that it seems low for him these days, but I doubt he cares and he’ll pull an absolutely ginormous crowd. He was probably just offered the same slot as 2020 and was happy to take it.

Plenty of people who will just go wherever there is a bloke and a guitar 

Noel/Macca back to back on the Pyramid is already hoovering the Radio X crowd!

Primal Scream and Bicep would be playing to one man and a dog up against those other three. 

Bicep will draw a huge crowd no matter when they play. There's a fair chunk of people that go to Glasto just for the DJ's, of which Bicep would be a headline act

The information came from someone who had information in regards to Foals headlining Friday, if I'm remembering right... Its been a long few weeks. Its the slots that Rag N Bone Man/Billie Eilish looked huge in too. Unless he's against someone pretty big the crowd will be massive.

True

Especially for Saturday night, if this was the way things were, they'd be the only 'party/dance' act on and then everyone would go over to Pangea after.

The one I think you're right about is Primal Scream, I think they'd be better against Billie/Kendrick. 

[the wonderwhy]

To be fair, someone's gotta have a small crowd

Said it elsewhere but I don’t think Phoebe is headlining a stage. I imagine that’s the get out with the Latitude “exclusive” clause. I know exclusives have been broken in the past, but with Melvin involved in both festivals and them announcing a week apart, feel like the Latitude wording is key.

Phoebe for a sunset set if a headline is not the cards

[Yg23]

please have simz on the friday 🙏🙏🙏🙏

really wanna see her, but if she's vs Paul it's gonna be him for me

[the wonderwhy]

I do think Phoebe could be lumped on to the Other stage

Personally wouldn't mind, especially with the Latitude Exclusive Headliner* for her. But I think she'd smash a Park late night slot and get quite lost on the other in the day time

IIRC They were 4th down then it was Kris Kristoferson, The XX then Radiohead

in reality she'll be great wherever she plays, but yeah the Park has been destined to hear Punisher tunes for years and it would be sad if it didn't happen 

[jparx]

I could see Sigrid early/mid afternoon Pyramid this year.

[wro_lap]

Sigrid's done her time on the Park and Other, has to be early Pyramid this time round

[Miyn]

I hope we get a more rock / guitar option on the Sunday this year. In 2020 it didn't look like we were going to get one on the top 5 stages. I know it's uncool to say I'd like to see a guitar option, but it's just my taste. I'd have loved Pheebs to close the Park on the Sunday, would have been awesome. Although the guitar option being someone like Primal Scream would be very underwhelming.

[Divein]

I dont think there's much on there, if any, for Silver Hayes or Williams Green.

She was so good in 2019. Deserves it for sure.
