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

Already playing, one of the biggest rock acts of the past 20 years. Last minute notice the ' played on 2017' goes out the window.

Don't see them having to drop out. They've canceled Dublin likely to give Alex as much rest time as possible. But silver lining, bump Foos up and my CHVRCHES clash headache is solved.

They'll play regardless imo. Should be Foos if not

I’ve just got a text from Ricky Wilson. He says the Kaisers are on standby!

Ruby Ruby Ruby!!!

It would be hilarious if Royal Blood become the first band to headline both Glastonbury and Truck Festival in the same year

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.

That would be shite. Really looking forward to Lizzo but purely in the slot she’s in as a warm up.

Agree

It’s going to be a weird dynamic seeing one of the biggest bands in the world effectively warm up for Royal Blood so having the Foos move up to headline instead would kill two birds with one stone. And finding a replacement act to play third down shouldn’t be too difficult.

Perhaps I'm out of touch but I just don't see how she is Pyramid headline material...

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

don’t think they’d be too bothered. And being able to step up to headline because someone else dropped out would be pretty a sweet full circle moment after the reverse happened to them in 2015.

She's about as big as Stormzy if not bigger at the current time. Just less culturally impactful. Her current tour has been getting very good reviews too. Not a huge headliner but not a small one, especially as a backup. See Florence.

Do people really believe Lizzo could/should headline? 🤨 nothing against her but I don't see in what world Lizzo would be a Glastonbury headliner.

Anyway, Alex will be fine. Would imagine they'd also have said Glastonbury is cancelled on that message rather than leave it an extra few days and then cancel. Could be wrong, but that's the way I've read it.

Especially in place of AM… such a bizarre suggestion

Huge anthems, great live performer, sells out arenas. She ticks every box.

You leave your options open don't you? I don't know what their contracts look like, but I'd leave it until the last possible contractual minute if I were them.

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.

Would never wish ill on anybody, but get Pulp in and sack them off. Ha ha!

[TGCarr]

My god get the 1975 in.
