Arguably bigger than jay-z & kanye, Certainly bigger than dave & stormzy Or just not his type of event / pay day Hope not.

She played in 2010, mid afternoon slot on the pyramid I think. Also, she isn't American, Colombian I think. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Confirmed that he is playing the pyramid this year but is not headlining. Would be a huge booking if true. More or less an admittance that he’s not ever gonna headline the Pyramid which sucks for him, but we the attendees stay winning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely he’d have the self belief to think he could headline the whole thing. Yah this is what I’ve always thought but who knows. Considering he’s definitely not gonna be headlining next year (presumably with a new album out) and then by the time ‘25 comes around it’s too late, maybe he’s seen the writing on the wall and realised it’s probably not gonna work out time-wise for him.

wro_lap Posted November 23, 2023 Report Share Posted November 23, 2023 @Gnomicide Not sure where to put this - you're correct about Glastonbury never sharing a headliner with R/L, but just so you're aware re the discussion of R/L headliners playing lower down as Glastonbury, here's a couple of times it's happened before: 2023 Lewis Capaldi booked to headline R/L, played 3rd down Pyramid 2022 Megan Thee Stallion headlined the Other Stage 2016 Foals subbed Pyramid and Disclosure headlined Other And 2011 Pulp did a secret set as you've already spotted. So basically it's more of a recent thing, more so with the two main stage thing (and co-headliners) meaning there's some slightly smaller bands headlining. It rules any of them out as headliners, and probably reduces the chance of any of them cropping up elsewhere - but it's still entirely possible that Gerry Cinnamon could show up somewhere (god help us) and I guess in theory so could Catfish. Technically Blink could too but I just can't see it. Hope that helps 🙂 thanks for all your great work 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NorthernSoul52 Posted November 24, 2023 Report Share Posted November 24, 2023 I just kind of assume that MSW headliners now would be effectively either Pyramid sub or Other headliner level. (Notable exception is The 1975, and that's simply because they stepped in for Lewis Capaldi this year.) It's why I feel Glastonbury got Lana Del Rey right, seeing that she's below Fred Again at R_+L.

Yeah, “headlining” that second stage is a glorified sub slot. Ultimately they start and finish before the act on the bigger stage starts and are for all intents and purposes a sub. Has anyone seen any day splits yet? Guessing Liam, Blink and LDR are the main headliners. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lol not a chance in the year 2023 for a festival In 2024 then Lana Del Rey is the biggest name out of those 6. I know shes currently in the dog house with Glastonbury fans. But her stock elsewhere is massive. Independent & Guardian have listed Fred, Lana & Blink as the 3 headliners Edit - that's also the top 3 in the official Facebook post Edited November 24, 2023 by Ben7amin_ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His draw is maybe dented slightly by doing so many other shows (both next year and over the past few), but even so there'll still be a lot of people buying tickets with him as the main name they want to see. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
