Obiginnaw Posted June 15, 2022 Report Share Posted June 15, 2022 tenner on Bastille for me then, seems reasonable and have 2 spotify tracks over 1B won't be there myself, they're tied with Blossoms right now for "the band i've seen the most times without ever making a conscious effort to see them, they just appear" 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, in 2019 the Thursday slot was pale waves who are on the same record label - dirty hit with the same management company In addition, Wolf Alice played that Thursday slot in 2015 also a dirty hit band. So the management must have a relationship with the stage bookers. from the clues - not headliner level , plausibly sub - seems unlikely to be the 1975, from a band that have headlined R+L and been touted to headline glasto in the future if new album does well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlexOvd Posted June 15, 2022 Report Share Posted June 15, 2022 Is it normal to be one week away and have no idea AT ALL about the big secret sets? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

august1 Posted June 15, 2022 Report Share Posted June 15, 2022 Tbf we have Nutini doing a show in Bristol before fest, small gig in Belguim week after to promote new album. Talk he's playing a tent. The Smile with a potential gap and 2 available slots. Played their first gig as part of live stream. Jack White with a history with the fest and seems to enjoy random small gigs. Potential Wolf Alice/Bastille sets. Feels like the net is closing in a bit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mttJ Posted June 15, 2022 Report Share Posted June 15, 2022 (edited) It sounds like 1975 to me. I can't imagine many people view them as a Pyramid headliner, but definitely a sub. Secret set on The Park leading into Other Stage 2023 headline, same as Foals? Edit: Completely mis-read the part that this is another stage!

Miyn Posted June 15, 2022 Report Share Posted June 15, 2022 (edited) Bastille played 4th down in 2019. Have they really done enough since to be considered sub level? Are Mumford's active at all? I reckon they were subbing Taylor in 2020. Edited June 15, 2022 by Miyn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leath02 Posted June 15, 2022 Report Share Posted June 15, 2022 Has anyone listened back to Craig Charles comments on 6music about The Smile? It happened at 13:40 on todays show, personally dont really know what to make of it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
august1 Posted June 15, 2022 Report Share Posted June 15, 2022 They are probably 3/4th down due to how much they tour, could be sub if they were a rarity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reading headliner doesn't always translate, I think Biffy played sub after headlining lots of different festivals including reading, bring me the horizon were on the other stage and I think they are reading headliner size. I do agree though, they do seem a bit too big to be sub thus don't fit the brief, but sort of in the grey area between sub and headliner fit me at the moment. Dunno.

Would put them (weirdly) in the same ballpark as Wolf Alice where you could realistically make a case for anywhere out of 4th/3rd/Sub on the Pyramid.

GeezLouise Posted June 15, 2022 Report Share Posted June 15, 2022 I love Bastille's mashups that they do. Play them all the time on youtube much to my partner's annoyance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Magic Rat Posted June 15, 2022 Report Share Posted June 15, 2022 Gerry Cinnamon? After JP tent 3 years ago he was surely on the way to 2,3 or 4 on Pyramid. Finishes this leg of his tour in Dublin on 19th. Free then til July Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FloorFiller Posted June 15, 2022 Author Report Share Posted June 15, 2022 Hope it’s Bastille so I can be nowhere near the tent when they’re on. Will be kinda annoyed if it turns out to be somebody good as cba staying in WG all day in an attempt to see whoever it is. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
