I definitely don't think if they needed someone though and she was game, it would just be overlooked. 4 hours ago, matrainertje said: Coldplay and Foos are not my cup at all. That might be the case but god it was stacked! Arctics, Coldplay, Foo Fighters. Plan B at his peak, Beyonce, Pulp, My Chemical Romance playing 3rd down while headlining Reading and The Strokes subbing second stage while also headlining Reading. It's definitely my regret not deciding to finally go. 4 hours ago, gfa said: More just know it was absolutely stacked vs quality. It was both in my view, that lineup was mega. If you could have gone to one lineup in the last 15 years in the lineup of the main major festivals, outside of Glastonbury at least, I don't think on paper it is beaten. Even Glastonbury would struggle with that, however in 2011 it is said Beyonce would have subbed aka TITP, had Prince played. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think she'll ever be back at Glasto because she won't sub or play Other, but also wouldn't be considered a headliner by the festival Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Purely in terms of headliners Rock Werchter 2018 is pretty filthy: Gorillaz/ QotSa, The Killers/ London Grammar, Pearl Jam/ Jack White, Arctic Monkeys/ Nick Cave Also, would be quite the experience to watch AM attempt to do a headline slot and then watch Nick Cave… Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

balti-pie Posted September 27, 2023 Report Share Posted September 27, 2023 Matty Healy is part of that very exclusive Infuriating Eyebrows club, along with Gabriel Jesus and whatever Will Smith's most annoying kid is called. I have a significant dislike of everyone with that particular style of eyebrow, it unnerves me something chronic. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just think its going to make for a preternaturally lined forehead and one that marks that individual out as an annoying prick for the rest of their life. Admittedly i've already marked all their cards as knobheads, which doubtlessly worries them even more 😄 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
