Wolf Alice subbing, considering they are playing the same slots as Bastille and Glass Animals at Reading they surely can't be big enough... Even billed below Meg (though I know hip hop often gets shafted a bit more at Glasto) Reading is a lot more Bastille's and Glass Animals's crowd than Wolf Alice's to be fair. I think they are an incredibly weak sub and i'm not a fan of them at all. I saw someone mention Flume a page ago, i can't see that at all. Don't think he's big enough here at all, would be such a weird, out there choice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wolf Alice subbing the main main. They play alternate stages, so even if we are going by that argument then they are still third down at Reading Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't think he's big enough here at all, would be such a weird, out there choice. Flume would have been a fantastic option for West Holts if we didn't already have a fantastic electronic lineup. Would be a pretty weak other headliner though, and can't see him not playing in the dark... Edit: also not sure I buy this 'reading is not wolf alices crowd' argument. Glasto has been getting in pop/rap/alt acts for a lot longer than reading has Edited April 1, 2022 by Mattymooz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glasto has been getting in pop/rap/alt acts for a lot longer than reading has I meant that at Reading/Leeds, glass animals / bastille are near enough home runs. Wolf Alice's crowd will be far smaller than those two's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't really blame her for moving to Harry Styles band though Oh no definitely not. Very easy career move. She deserves to be a big success.

Think the overall sense of humour about disinformation is pretty low when they're weeks out from an event three years in the making. It's the kind of thing that'll see area announcements slowed down rather than accelerated. Know it's mostly in good spirits but think twice before you post, even on April 1st. Friendly word to the wise. So, if I’ve got this right, you’re saying some of the names on the fake poster are actually correct and Avalon Emerson is playing 😀😀 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The board is monitored by some professional lurkers and that mocked up line-up did the rounds in the industry. That + a fake Guardian story with fake quotes from Emily about a proposed change to the site, banded around Twitter with the hashtag #Glastonbury, have been looked on very dimly by comms people. Got nothing to do with Harry, to be clear. It's the rest. Neil through his reliable sources has been saying kendrick and Macca for months, why the sudden outrage at potentially a couple of djs being leaked early? guarantee half the glasto audience won’t have heard of these people yet pretty much everyone will have heard of kendrick and macca so not sure why they’re suddenly so bothered?

Keithy Posted April 1, 2022 Report Share Posted April 1, 2022 If Glasto lost their minds about a fake poster, wait to they find they've a fake Macca headlining. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gnomicide Posted April 1, 2022 Report Share Posted April 1, 2022 Yep. If Glastonbury are pissed off by one fake poster and one obvious April Fools gag after all the info that has been leaked here over the years then it's someone new to the job. Maybe they're pissed off because someone started contacting the people on the poster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
