Guns'n'Roses came as a late-ish rumour that hardly anyone believed.

We knew about GnR over on the Discord before Christmas, it was just Neil on here who was shooting down any suggestion it could be them.

[Hugh Jass II]

We also had Lil Nas X down as subbing long before it became public knowledge too.

Those of us on here who could put two and two together were in the same place the minute that Elton John was announced (i.e at the start of December)

Playing Anfield on Glastonbury Saturday just to really piss me off.

I've just been told by a source I believe to be fully genuine that it is 100%, Dua, Coldplay and Stevie. Just waiting on the latter to give the nod to reveal. 

This is not their opinion, it was delivered as fact (they're in the industry and they've been told)

I'd be happy with those 3, a good variety of music types and audiences who will be interested in them across the age spectrum

Old news - Discord knew about this in 2017

Apart from people who don't like one or more of those personally, I think you've hit the nail on the head.

Well they could be wrong obviously, but I've just headed over to put a bet on Stevie as my confidence was high. 

Spoiler alert: You can't bet on Stevie.

Edit: Coldplay lego figures will always eventually come in handy for your hat. It's just a matter of time.

Sadly this is true

[CaledonianGonzo]

Coldplay Lego figures are just 4 nondescript Lego figures with nothing in anyway that identifies them or distinguishes them.  

Anyway roughbloke gave us Coldplay and Dua Lipa back in the autumn.

[Drinky]

Ok bear with me here: Stevie has always been one of Michael’s top artists to get for the festival, and he was clearly so pleased at landing him for the 40th in 2010… and thinking back to Emily’s comments about a big American artist who would be around next year, and that it would all make sense when the announcement came… is there going to be an announcement that Michael will be stepping back from the festival and farm completely, and this is his send off?

I believe the Stevie rumour came from there.

Can you order lego men dressed like toddlers wearing crap v-neck t shirts?

I thought you said it had already ended years ago? 

In terms of Michaels involvement, he is a symbolic leader only and has been for many years.   

I expect nothing to change when he's no longer involved, for whatever reason that may be.

Perhaps the permanent planning permission was a clue that nothing significant will change in the medium future.

Can we please not consider that at this time on a miserable Tuesday afternoon

Yeah what makes a Lego figure "Coldplay"?

Other than the blank stare and lack of real personality?

I believe he still has the power of veto and is involved in decisions over major changes.

Conversation with one of my bosses post festival debrief:

"one day there will be no Green Fields"

ME "not while I'm still alive"
