Absolute rubbish. Caribou did it this year who did a single show at Brixton last time they toured.

And is much more known to a wider, more mainstream audience.  And I said barely, not that he can't.  It's also his hometown crowd, even if it is London - don't see us suggesting the Courteeners can sub any stage on the farm.  All this chat of WH headlining, Pyramid sub is absolutely daft.

Think Fred Again would be a great WH headline, similar to Bicep/Jusitce/Disclosure as a Sunday night dance option.

He's still had nowhere near the level of exposure and breakthrough that any of them had by the time they headlined WH, especially Bicep and Disclosure.  If he's announced as the Field Day headliner I'll change my view, but until then I think this is a classic eFest hype train running way out of control.

Other headline / pyramid sub is rubbish - but WH is very feasible. He could have sold out another 2 brixton dates with ease if not more.

'Barely' for west holts sub is a joke imo - lets see eh

no way they sub other. maybe 5th down like glass animals?

Glass Animals were 4th - sounds to me that the person you quoted didn't realise St Vincent subbed based on them saying early evening. I think 4th down is about right

Tbh tbh is is a cracking lineup. Stromae won’t play that high, played very low last time.

He’s not that big here.

While he's a little too high on the lineup prediction I wouldn't use last time as a predictor. 

When he was last booked he was also playing kokos (he went on to play Hammersmith apollo afterwards). This time round he's sold out wembley arena. Deserves a decent slot.

I don't think the kooks would be interested in doing the other opener slot - they've just got to the point where they are headlining all the mid sized festivals and i feel other headline is something you do on the way down a bit more.

Has one of the random early slots on the Pyramid written all over it if they play. No idea if they’ve appeared before but Don’t You Forget About Me on the Pyramid would be brilliant. 

Simple minds certainly played in ‘95.

    • Another note, if I didn't mention the food in the arena for main stage is right at the back. Bands wise they do very well for but as a festival so far they pros are outweighed quite heavily currently for me.
    • On another note for RIP as an event, there is some good things but there are so many things people going to UK festivals would hate and how far behind they are.  Consistent network and water, beer and pretzel like food is brought around to buy in the crowds. Topping up on the wristband is good. The camping and food arrangement is not good, you really need cooking kit. Water points inside the arena are bonkers, water points in camping are a faff unless you are close enough in general camp. Merch stands are crazy. You MASSIVELY need to think about your lidl shop for camping and try and do it so you've one stop. It's definitely worth it getting to a camping shop here, picking up a rolley between your mates and stacking it for the walk back....lidl is cheap though, not hard getting in but Thursday queues getting in and into the camping is mad. You have to register first for a wristband as well leaving any bigger bags behind so pull to a side if only two and do it separately. I was joining a WhatsApp group for solo camp so went with the flow but I've learnt. Had it been me or just two my tent would have been down much quicker.  Big final note, I got a fresh and black 3 man from decathlon before coming and put in bigger suitcase with my airbed and sleeping bag...do this. Take a smaller option for your clothes. If you go to Munich first, book your train to Nuremberg as far in advance as you can....very important!....it hikes crazy. Probably bettee overall for baggage sizes to do BA both ways but you do then need to go back to Munich after too. Use the B&B hotel hbf the night before....its very nice, comfortable, cheap and within 10 minutes of the station which also serves as a transport stop 15 minutes from the registration.  Get up literally like 5am with everything back the night before, shower and go. Transport is free anyway for festival ticket holders during the duration.  Would I just choose to travel in each day and back to a hotel?, on the basis of sleep and getting accommodation cheap enough for 3 nights i might just do especially if I picked the ticket up early enough. It doesn't feel like a festival in a normal sense....unless you are in general yoi have to exit on the paths outside the camping to walk down and in which also applies for getting water so have a stock up. Toilets are in the camping.
    • Yup and they aren't cheap   Glastonbury is different though, it's a place that will pack out for rarities they don't usually see. Download strictly speaking shouldn't be the strangest place for Avril to pop up of she had been a touring artist of longer times over the years.   Avril and GC would get the same billing for me and GC are selling arenas out quicker than Avril sold Ally Pally. Bearing in mind she'd pnly done soem Brixton dates before.
    • Avril gets above GC on rarity (see Cypress Hill this year). She drew in something like 70,000 at Glastonbury, so much so that they had to close the field off. I’d wager that she would get the biggest crowd of the entire weekend if she was to play DL.
