Mouseboy11 Posted August 23, 2021 Report Share Posted August 23, 2021 Just got back from Green Man, caught a bit of BC Camplight and ended up stood next to Thom Yorke. He said that Radiohead are going to be playing next year and probably The Smile too although didn’t say if they were headlining. (I wasn’t sure it was him at first but then he started doing the Lotus Flower dance to I Only Drink When I’m Drunk) 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FloorFiller Posted August 23, 2021 Report Share Posted August 23, 2021 I have absolutely no idea if this is a piss take or not because of the final line… But I’ll go for the bait: It seems far too soon for them to be back headlining, especially after actively avoiding headlining between ‘03 and ‘17 because they didn’t want to be seen as a house band. I’m sure members will be there in some capacity as they always are, and The Smile being there instead of Thom solo seems a good bet, but not the full band headlining.

the wonderwhy Posted August 23, 2021 Report Share Posted August 23, 2021 He was definitely there as my mate saw him waiting for Black Midi. Apparently he was enjoying a Bootlegger pilsner, proper bloke. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hutchmaster Posted August 23, 2021 Report Share Posted August 23, 2021 I can't see Radiohead headlining, but I think it's a safe assumption The Smile will be there as will EOB, so I wouldn't bet against a secret Park set or something with them three or EOB joining The Smile for a couple of songs.

Euphoricape Posted August 23, 2021 Report Share Posted August 23, 2021 I will be so happy if radiohead play next year. Will be 5 years since they headlined so I can't see why not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt42 Posted August 23, 2021 Report Share Posted August 23, 2021 (edited) I think it’s more likely the smile will be billed and Radiohead will play as a secret set rather than the other way round. in my opinion this would be a really nice alternative to that Mumfords subbing the pyramid rumour. @Hugh Jass Edited August 23, 2021 by Matt42 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scatteredscreens Posted August 23, 2021 Report Share Posted August 23, 2021 Maybe he just meant Radiohead will be there as attendees? 😅 Like they all seemingly are every year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scatteredscreens Posted August 23, 2021 Report Share Posted August 23, 2021 I will say though, that I have memory of someone on here in about, 2019? Not too long after the fest that year that ME claimed Radiohead were gonna be at 2020 in some capacity. So maybe it's a carry over from that, not expecting a headlining slot though.

Chapple12345 Posted August 23, 2021 Report Share Posted August 23, 2021 Reckon it'll either be him solo or The Smile, Radiohead headlining only 2 festivals after they last did it would be quite underwhelming, especially as they have no new material to go off Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Playing as in playing Glastonbury, or just back touring? Edit: sorry just to re-read and it's clear you meant Glastonbury. Very weird...surely they're not headlining again after a one festival (albeit 4 year) gap? But the only other option would be a secret set, and I doubt he'd be spilling those beans.
