Surprised that someone like Adele or Sheeran hasn't snuck one in.

 

They both have… this article is plain wrong. Does this mean BAND?

Urgh! Country Girl!

I've described Primal Scream as my favourite band that has the most amount of bad albums

Just give us Swastika Eyes 8 times and I'm on board

Oooosh, now we're talking. Original plus three remixes

[Divein]

We need to know this Fontaines headlining the Park on Sunday chat on the head same with Caribou being anything other than Park headliner on Friday.

@Tommy Dickfingers here's a quick catch-up.

It depends which side of the Wolf Alice factional warfare you're on, if you believe another two subs fall from the sky, and if you believe Sam Fender is going up in the world, but we're all roughly in this camp... give or take a few picks... sorta, maybe.

Friday

Pyramid: Billie, Wolf Alice | Other: Foals, Megan thee Stallion/Sam Fender | John Peel: Four Tet, Jessie Ware/Jesus & Mary Chain | West Holts: Little Simz, Burna Boy | Park: Phoebe Bridgers, Big Thief

Saturday

Pyramid: Macca, Noel | Other: Doja Cat, Glass Animals | John Peel: Charli XCX, Roísín Murphy | West Holts: Leon Bridges, Khruangbin | Park: Caribou, The Avalanches/Self Esteem

Sunday

Pyramid: Kendrick, Lorde (?) | Other: Pet Shop Boys, Years & Years | John Peel: Primal Scream, Fontaines D.C. | West Holts: Bicep, Nightmares on Wax | Park: Bonobo, ???

Cheers. Say I’d be in a minority of Friday being Jesus and Marychain into Little Simz. Saturday it’s gotta be Macca and Noel for me. Sunday be Kendrick and not so sure based off of that.

Think I’ll have a poke around who’s meant to be playing on what day during the afternoon start making a few tough choices.

Would have loved to have seen Khruangbin, The Avalanches, PSB and Bicep. Was well up for a Screamadelica set but if it’s a normal one I’ve seen PS shit loads.

Will be spending the next 3 months stressed about the Kendrick/Bicep conflict. Kendrick comes to Canada pretty frequently and I've seen him twice, but headlining the Pyramid Stage is a whole different thing. Bicep have never come here and only really play NYC and LA when they come to this part of the world. Tricky decision.

Bicep are growing so fast I reckon they will be in Canada soon enough - so i'd go Kendrick. You won't get the crowd for Bicep in Canada/the US like you will here though I think

[Mwk525]

Could the manics still be headlining the park on Friday? They seem to be touring a lot around Glastonbury.

[Suprefan]

Gonna be nice to have checked off Billie, Megan, Doja, Phoebe, Beabadoobee, Avalanches,  Bicep, Arlo parks, Amyl and the sniffers, Idles, Turnstile,  Caroline Polachek, Girl In Red,  Supergrass and Black Midi before june to solve conflicts if need be.

Could Lorde be the mystery Not El Pointo Saturday headliner?

Who is/are El Pointo. I've seen it referenced a couple of times but I've been out of the loop what, with one thing and another.

I can’t see that Other Friday line up. Would be absolutely packed out all day surely?

If we get a couple of back-to-back runs like that I will be very happy indeed. Those 6 are probably most of the top 10 things I'd like to see, so I'm all in on this one!

[Guy Incognito]

I'll be shocked if Wolf Alice are Other sub. They feel like the sort of act Glastonbury would give a Pyramid sub slot to. 

If it weren't for Foals, I'd be expecting them to headline the Other stage. 

[nikkic]

I know we all have different opinions on where acts will place and who is bigger etc etc

But......

Isn't is just fucking ace to be able to discuss all this with supreme confidence the festival is actually going ahead this year?!

Just over 3 months and we'll all be there, in the sun, cider in hand having the fucking time of our lives!!!!

[Guy Incognito]

Seeing as we know a few stage times now (Celeste, Bicep, Sam Fender) it feels like it's about time that someone got a Clashfinder going (I'm not doing it)!

[AtomsForPizza]

There is a 'prediction' one going on the Clashfinder website

Actually, looking at the clashfinder I'm really struggling to sort the West Holts lineup, there are too many big acts on that stage... Seun Kuti surely must be a sub, but also feel like if Leon Bridges is headlining then Khruangbin must be subbing them, and we already have a packed Sunday lineup, so just a bit confused...

Definitely a tough one to nail down. At the moment I'm thinking something like this but I can see the logic in the clashfinder order too:

Bonobo / TLC / Koffee / Seun Kuti
Little Simz / Leon Bridges / Ghetts / Celeste
Bicep / Angelique Kidjo / Snarky Puppy / Nightmares On Wax

I wouldn’t be - Sam fender is playing third down other and Wolf Alice will have less experience of big slots like that than he does. With a big Finsbury Park date to add too.

Couldn't agree more. I think people have got a perception coming from the R&L lineup where over 2 stages they're technically 3rd meaning they can't be pyramid sub sized - but realistically they're subbing Arctic Monkeys (who are probably R&L's biggest headline pull for years) and I think they'll have a massive crowd there

[sisco]

Wolf Alice - add in the usual friends of the festival, British, Female Fronted etc….

They can sub
