it would be an idiot idea this is 2023, not 1981.

Best not book The Cure, Metallica or Paul McCartney then!

Dates

Maybe I'm just hoping too hard, but they're in Paris on the 24th and Copenhagen on the 27th.  It's maybe a stretch but not impossible

Tell me you've never listened to November Rain without telling me you've never listened to November Rain. 

In all seriousness we get you don't like GNR, let people have a discussion about them even if you think it's unlikely, why do you honestly care so much, it's so odd.

lol.  I agree tho.  GNR aren't current enough.

I predicted Blur would headline 2023 back in June, (previous now deleted thread) but have now been thrown by the fact that;

It's meant to be a 30th Parklife Anniversary(which would be 2024).

But there's talk of a Wembley show for July (2023?)

Dave and Graham both appear to have been in the same studio together in the past week, so possibly dusting themselves down?

Have you seen the price of the tickets for the DM tour next year?  Front standing at Twickenham would cost more than Glastonbury!

If I was betting money, I would bet 

Fri - Harry Styles 

Sat - Florence 

Sun - Depeche Mode 

 

Personally, I don't think GNR will headline if they play.  Theyre a nostalgia band full stop.  Emily and Michael always book 'the biggest acts in the word' and while that may have been true for GNR at one time, it's not true anymore.  I could see them subbing Arctic Monkeys or headlining the other stage, but not headlining the pyramid. 

That would the weakest set of headliners in awhile for me, I do like Depeche Mode quite a bit but Florence and Harry are weak AF.

Florence doesnt do anything for me personally.  Nor do the arctics.  In some ways I hope for weak headliners to eliminate the clash factor.  But when you love a band, there's nothing like seeing them headline the pyramid

Road Trippin' is a solid 9/10 song though.

Do they? I love my music but wouldn't say my fingers on the pulse so apply pinch of salt to the below... But 2019 had the killers and the cure. I don't think they're that big a deal but am more than happy to be wrong 😊

Neil probably had his reasons. Don't judge a book by its cover!

You're seriously responding to someone talking about a massive band headlining a festival, when sources have suggested it's happening, with this vile nonsense? It's not stinking up the forum, it's what the forum has always been for. Your strange dislike of one particular band is making you extremely irrational and even nasty on this. 

If there's anyone out there who Neil trusts, please step in. 

[Xeph1995]

Chili Peppers would have been a good booking round the Slane Castle era and it would be stupid to deny that. 

Moment has passed for them now tho, deffo washed live.

Well this thread is as fun as the last one at least.

Calling it at Arctic Monkeys, Blur, Rihanna.

GNR are not playing Glastonbury based on nothing more than a gut feeling. They feel like a real ill fit, offer nothing at all.
