Duran Duran are cool though apparently. Keep up 😉 I think it's the not being this side of the world either side of his GSH - definitely would be an interesting choice if it is him - as it doesn't seem the done thing at the moment to fly someone over just for a Glastonbury set. So there kinda (for me) needs to be extra things added to his diary that he's already lined up in Europe in and around that week. He's probably, despite that, one of the front runners at the moment to be fair (e.g. more likely than spice girls / Sting). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe it's a huge booking and it's top top secret OR they really are struggling Think this is more likely. Probably going to be a slightly underwhelming act compared to recent history Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There must be a shrinking pool of available, touring and suitably sized heritage acts, at some point you have to go with an artist from an earlier decade or change how that slot functions entirely.

From afro grooves to hip hop, reggae to techno, this is the stage for people who know that bass is the place" Yeah pretty sure Razorlight fall into at least zero of these categories Thanks for the history lesson. He did say he wasn’t 100% on Razorlight. Regardless, I still hope he’s right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BenG92 Posted February 9, 2023 Report Share Posted February 9, 2023 The guy literally said as part of his "leak" that he really wasn't sure on stage placements at all. Razorlight on WH is not the reason to not believe it. You should not believe it because it's just not believable. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe it's just me but if I had advanced sight of the lineup and couldn't quite remember exact placements, rather than whack Razorlight in as West Holts headliner and put Iggy Pop on a day that he objectively cannot do, I would simply list artists I had seen on the poster and say "pretty sure these are all playing" For me they overegged it, and it was pure backpedalling the moment it came up against any minor scrutiny. Total bollocks IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By far the best of the big stages, with consistently the best line up, has been since the 90's (whatever it's been called), best crowd. It's not for the likes of Razorlight 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
