Saw them perform in my hometown around 12 years ago to what must've been a few hundred people, i've been a pretty casual fan since but even i'll admit it will be pretty cool watching them now headline the biggest stage and have no doubt they will smash it.

Her most recent album flopped and her set would've probably gone totally unnoticed by the wider public if she hadn't mentioned him. I get people being mad about it but in this instance I found it to b

They’re clearly looking for this to be the set of their life, which for me is what headlining that special stage is all about. I hate it when acts just go through the motions and don't give it the gravitas it deserves. 
Whilst I’d admit The 1975 aren’t my favourite band, I am looking forward to watching their set on iPlayer tonight.

From seeing Chocolate on a music channel at the start of 2013, to then seeing them pack out the FR tent at Leeds that August (from outside, we couldn’t get in), to seeing them headline R&L in 2019 and putting on the second best set I’ve ever seen, to seeing them replace RATM and stealing the weekend, through to seeing them At Their Very Best on the last album cycle to now seeing them headline Glasto. What a journey it’s been. Feels like such a triumph, tonight. Proud of the boyz. Let’s have a massive party!

Oh, absolutely. This is the peak of their career. More so than most, they understand the momentousness of the occasion.

 

Way too early to call this the peak of their career. If anything, this could just be the start of something even bigger.

I reckon they’re going to do an Eras style set…. no basis for this at all. Open with The City into Chocolate, pull into the casuals. Save Sex for the encore. 

Would be brilliant, something like:

 

The City

Chocolate

Girls

Robbers

 

Love Me

Somebody Else

The Sound

 

Give Yourself A Try

Love It If We Made It

It's Not Living If It's Not With You

 

Me & You Together Song

If You're Too Shy (Let Me Know)

 

I'm In Love With You

Happiness

About You

Needs more Fallingforyou, so I feel justified for wearing my long-sleeve Fallingforyou tshirt all day.

      I see, well even if they aren't on sale it's still not a disaster sales wise, it's not like they are struggling to sell a half capacity areana

      Blue dot wouldn’t be a thing if Ticketmasters dynamic pricing went down as well as up, it proves that the dynamic pricing was just a scam to make more money rather than something that moved with the market supply/demand.

      I agree that we’ll never really know up until the concert happens (and even then we still may not know) but I think promoters are having to come up with new tactics to combat ‘blue dot fever’ (already hating that phrase!) and trying to imply that concerts are selling better than they actually are / available tickets are in short supply is definitely one of them.    To add though, it is quite common at the O2 Arena for the rear blocks to not go on sale (and then remain closed for the concert and covered over to hide the empty seats). And equally common for standing to sell out first, then side/lower tier seating next and rear/upper tier seating last.    Jungle’s two concerts at the O2 are a good comparison for this - for their 1st (announced) date, all blocks are on sale and seats in all sections remain unsold, whereas for their 2nd date, the rear blocks are greyed out (more so than for Muse) and equally lots of seats remain unsold in the blue blocks. Standing for both concerts are showing as sold out.

      MGK can and should headline. I was at one of his shows earlier in the year as a very casual fan, and there were a lot of alt people there. The show was actually class and he completely won me over. Anyone who opposes him headlining is just a gatekeeper imo, we need to move with the times.
