That's all fair - but if one of the big three has d@bbed down it would be seriously screwy to get on the phone to KoL when O-Rod is standing there in a prime position.

I thought the same last year about Lizzo or Lana.  

Not saying GnR were not a worthy replacement.

Just did they actually need to go out and look for one when they could have stepped one of those two up.

I mean the constant tweeting of Glastonbury content over the last few weeks has got people talking and in some places assuming  so if that's a risk it's already an accepted risk 

4 weeks ago they shared a video of something on insta from them being on the farm twenty years ago, during a time when presumably they're still selling tickets for their dates?

I don't think anyone is denying that they're a massive act and have some huge tunes, just that they are 15 years past their "artistic" peak and tend to phone it in live.

Last time I saw them was late 2008, just about the time they got huge with SOF/Use Somebody.  That was a pretty decent setlist and performance, but every vid I've seen of them on stage recently, they could be statues.

Closer is a top drawer opening track for a gig though TBF.

 

The post was asking about how people would feel if KOL came out for a secret set on the Pyramid, when people were expecting The Killers.

As @NorthernSoul52 points out, they've shitloads of hits, so people would probably be happy, by and large.

Are Kings of Leon pyramid headliner material? I feel like at most Other or some sort of sub 

They're kind of past it, so would be a weak headliner. Only way I see them headlining these days is if GFL are seriously stuck or someone backed out late.

But they're headlining other festivals all over the world, and doing their own massive gigs, so Other headliner or Pyramid sub would be a massive step down for them, so doubt they'd accept.

Most likely just not playing Glastonbury at all, unless it's a secret set.

Yeah, that's the thing. Kings of Leon are big enough to headline in my book.

But... it's just pretty uninspired, at the end of the day. Some absolutely massive tunes, of course, but if they're stepping in for Madonna / Stevie Wonder, I'd much rather see them either take the hefty payday they had for those two in pursuit of someone with similar stature (a difficult prospect, which I absolutely accept) or plump for giving the leg-up to a first-timer (which, alongside a pair of Dua Lipa and Coldplay, isn't going to make it seem too soft as a trio in the grand scheme.)

That said, I absolutely get why you would go for Kings of Leon in that case. They're an arena band, former headliners and have at least half-a-dozen tunes most folk will know in their genre. (See: The Killers being reportedly a third-choice call-up in 2019.)

Agree with this. Suppose the stickler is whether she wants it yet.

I wonder if this is just their way of doing a Dave Grohl and hinting they'll be there in some sort of secret slot. Dave had the imagination to write a note on social media that used the phrase churn up - I could see the KoL equivalent being 'just share loads of Glasto related stuff and people will figure it out'

It's funny that we don't really bat an eyelid to this system when it's clearly (at least) two corporations working together to rip off the consumer of 100's of pounds.

I wouldn't say they work together. But it's best to work for the best outcome. Other festivals dont fear glastonbury. They appreciate the focus it puts on all festivals.

Guns n Roses have sold over a hundred million albums, they're in no way comparable to Kings of Leon - who mightve sold at a guess about a tenth of that. I know its a slightly outmoded comparison these days (but i hate going by streams too 😄 i'm very old) but they're not in same ballpark, they aren't even the same sport.

Unless that sport is hairy blokes who seriously lost their mojo after a decent run, and subsequently became dreadful. 

For curiosity's sake, I did a quick look at album sales in the UK.

KOL's Only By The Night has sold nearly as much as all of GnR's albums put together.

 

Appetite For Destruction: 1.9m

GNR Lies: 100k

Use Your Illusion 1: 400k

Use Your Illusion 2: 400k

The Spaghetti Incident: 100k

Chinese Democracy: 300k

Total: 3.2m

 

Only By The Night: 3m

 

Once you add in their other albums, KOL vastly outsell GnR in the UK.

also she understands the importance of the festival and being shoe horned in at the last minute wont allow her to give the slot the respect and attention she would want to give it. check her vogue interview to see what it means to her. i dont think she does it as a last minute repalcement.

KOL are definitely big enough to headline and I don't think would be accepting of a sub/other headline, whether they would be an interesting or good booking is subjective I guess (personally I'm a historical fan but think they are regularly pretty turgid live, so would avoid). However I always say they could book a bloke doing a turd to headline the pyramid for all I care, plenty of stuff going on to have the best time of your life anyway.

Based on nothing at all I think they are sharing Glasto posts over other festivals/gigs simply to promote the UK gigs, as headlining glasto is by far the biggest thing you can do in the UK, you can basically milk that headliner status forever to promote yourself over here.

 

ps I'm still convinced it's Stevie as that's the latest info we've got, and we're just talking ourselves out of it due to no announcement forthcoming!

Ha! i don't doubt you, but that's genuinely mindblowing. Appetite for Destruction is one of those albums that even if people hate G n R, they'll know inside out. Its probably a combination of age and demographics etc etc, and the kind of people i know and hhave talked music with, but i'm astonished that KoL could've outsold GnR in the UK! Top Shop have a lot to answer for . . .

I imagine streaming had something to do with it aswell.

20 years since Aha Shake Heartbreak. An hour secret set in Woodsies playing the full album please. Would still give 20 minutes to throw in 4 other songs. 

 

Wishful thinking.

There's no way KOL are headlining. They'd give someone a leg up before bringing in an over the hill band like KOL....and i like KOL.

I like them as well, in fact I’m going to see them in Glasgow two days after Glastonbury. But I would be hugely surprised to see them headlining the Pyramid in 2024. Just doesn’t feel like they’re still big enough.

    • Enhancing Patient Safety and Quality Care NURS FPX 4030 is a pivotal course in the nursing curriculum at Capella University, emphasizing patient safety and quality improvement in healthcare settings. Assessment 2 of this course typically requires students to identify take my online nursing class a specific patient safety issue, analyze its causes and impacts, and develop an evidence-based plan to address it. This assessment challenges students to apply their knowledge of nursing theory and quality improvement principles to real-world clinical problems, fostering their development as competent and reflective practitioners. The first step in NURS FPX 4030 Assessment 2 involves selecting a relevant patient safety issue. This issue should be one that significantly impacts patient outcomes and is pertinent to the student’s clinical setting. Common examples include medication errors, hospital-acquired take my online nursing class for me infections, falls, and surgical complications. Identifying a significant issue is crucial as it sets the direction for the entire project, focusing efforts on areas that can substantially enhance patient safety and quality care. Once the issue is identified, the next step is to conduct a comprehensive analysis of its causes and impacts. This involves  nurs fpx 4030 assessment 2 reviewing current practices, examining patient outcomes, and analyzing data to understand the extent of the problem. For instance, if the chosen issue is medication errors, students would review incident reports, analyze error patterns, and investigate contributing factors such as workflow inefficiencies, lack of staff training, or communication breakdowns. This thorough analysis helps to uncover root causes and identify areas for intervention. After understanding the problem, students must develop an evidence-based plan to address the patient safety issue. This plan should include specific, actionable steps grounded in current research and best practices. For example, to reduce bio fpx 1000 assessment 7 medication errors, the plan might involve implementing electronic medication administration records (eMAR), conducting regular staff training sessions on medication safety, and establishing a double-check system for high-risk medications. Each intervention should be justified with evidence from the literature, demonstrating its potential effectiveness in improving patient safety. Effective communication and teamwork are essential components of the implementation plan. Students must outline strategies for engaging healthcare team members, including nurses, physicians, pharmacists, and support staff, in the initiative. Regular team meetings, clear communication nurs fpx 4050 assessment 1 channels, and collaborative decision-making processes are crucial for ensuring that all stakeholders are informed and committed to the plan. Creating a culture of safety, where team members feel empowered to speak up about concerns and contribute ideas, is vital for the success of the initiative.
    • Enhancing Healthcare Quality Through Interdisciplinary Collaboration NURS FPX 4060 is a vital course in the nursing curriculum at Capella University, focusing on principles of interdisciplinary collaboration to improve healthcare quality and patient outcomes. Assessment 4 of this course typically requires take my online class students to design and implement a comprehensive plan that addresses a specific healthcare issue through collaborative efforts among various healthcare professionals. This assessment emphasizes the importance of teamwork, communication, and evidence-based practice in achieving optimal healthcare results. The first step in NURS FPX 4060 Assessment 4 involves identifying a significant healthcare issue that necessitates interdisciplinary intervention. This issue should be relevant to the student’s clinical setting and have a direct impact on patient care. Common topics might include reducing hospital readmissions, improving chronic disease management, or enhancing patient safety protocols. Identifying a pressing issue is crucial, as it provides a clear focus for the take my online class for me collaborative efforts and sets the stage for meaningful improvements. After selecting a healthcare issue, students must conduct a thorough analysis to understand the underlying causes and contributing factors. This analysis involves reviewing current practices, patient outcomes, and existing nhs fpx 6004 assessment 2 literature to gather evidence on effective interventions. For instance, if the issue is high readmission rates for heart failure patients, students would examine factors such as medication adherence, patient education, and follow-up care. This comprehensive analysis helps identify gaps in current practices and opportunities for improvement. The next step is to develop a detailed plan for addressing the identified issue through interdisciplinary collaboration. This plan should outline specific interventions, roles and responsibilities of team members, and a timeline for implementation. For example, a plan to reduce readmission rates might involve creating a nurs fpx 4060 assessment 4 multidisciplinary team consisting of nurses, physicians, pharmacists, and social workers. Each team member would have distinct responsibilities, such as providing patient education, ensuring medication reconciliation, and coordinating follow-up appointments. Clear delineation of roles ensures that all aspects of patient care are addressed comprehensively. Effective communication strategies are essential for successful interdisciplinary collaboration. Students must establish regular communication channels, such as team meetings, electronic health record (EHR) notes, and progress reports, to ensure that all pay someone to take my online course team members are informed and engaged. These strategies facilitate the sharing of information, tracking of progress, and timely addressing of any issues that arise during implementation. Communication tools like secure messaging apps and collaborative platforms can enhance real-time information sharing and coordination.
