Arctic Monkeys

I'd love any excuse to get Pulp onto the bill, but realistically the most likely scenario is they've cancelled Dublin precisely so that they don't risk Glastonbury.

Pulp replacing Arctics would literally break my heart. 

Mine too, as someone without a ticket 😉

Get jarvis on the blower

[Green Bear]

Hypothetically they can’t headline, foo fighters headline and if pulp come in they play 3rd down right?

[Memory Man]

No evidence for this but surely obvious first reserves include florence and 1975

This is where I'm at too. Certainly gives us something else to speculate on though!

[cgall]

Ngl Pulp would be a considerable downgrade I think - not really glasto headliner material in 2023 , just my opinion though!

They normally bump the sub up don't they, Royal blood headlining would be one for the ages

At least Coldplay are in Italy on tour.... 😉

With four days notice? Unlikely. Foos are right there. 

[ticketboy69]

Pure poetry if Pulp have to step in. 
 

I have everything crossed!

I’d thrown in Harry Styles too

[theglastokid]

Foos would just nudge up to headliner surely?

[Gnomicide]

Obviously they set the precedent in 2015. Royal Blood to headline.

 

 

What?

[Rose-Colored Boy]

just checked and The 1975 are busy anyway. Why the hell it would be anyone except the Foos is beyond me. 

[D-Low]

Would be happy with Pulp as recently saw AM but as someone who's not a Foo's fan them stepping in would be horrible for me. Crossing everything Alex can make the show or it's Pulp or anyone besides just stepping up Foos 😂

[swillis89]

Could they bump Lizzo up? Although she's in Belfast the night before so getting headliner production over may be difficult

[The Nal]

5 days is loads of time. He sounded ok last night in London so maybe not a bad dose.

I don't think they would want to headline. We've known they are the secret set and have done for a few weeks but when they headline they will get months of PR before hand. Headlining now rules them out to do it again for a while

That would be an insane festival. Pulp > Fred > Foo's for me.

 

I agree that they're probably gonna be fine though.

[Dave_c]

Let's not get carried away, they are likely taking precautions to ensure Glasto goes ahead. 

[woyski]

Ugh man, I'll be bummed out if they have to cancel. Foos totally worthy but I'm just not as fussed.

Love a last minute swerve ball!

[incident]

Given that they've already said Lizzo is a headliner - if the logisitics work (playing Belfast on the Thursday night so not impossible) then she'd be one of the first calls.

if not Foos then this is probably the best bet seeing as she should’ve been headlining anyway.
