“I was at a party last week and someone told me that headliners were AM, GnR and Taylor…obvs Taylor isn’t right but interesting they also mentioned GnR. Worth pointing out this a music industry thing, not just a Halloween party.”

This is what he said.

Is that it?! People here are acting like the bloke had solid insider info. 'Someone at a party said...' isn't a great source at the best of times, even less so when a third of their prediction is proven to be wrong.

AM / Elton / Eminem

So yeah, I’ve heard from two different places that AM are in.

I’ve also heard from two different places that GnR are in but with two contradicting scenarios…one where they replaced Taylor, another where Taylor was the third headliner. 

From the first source, the trio was AM, GNR and Elton. Second source = AM, GNR and Taylor.

we all know now Taylor looks like she is out so it definitely leaves the 3rd one up for grabs OR Elton is in for the Sunday.

I agree with a lot of people here that glasto not having a female headliner is odd but equally, they can only book what is available PLUS Emily’s comments saying some years they will have 3 ‘’male’ headliners could point towards the first set of pyramid toppers. 

if the 3rd isn’t Reg, then I expect Rihanna, Beyoncé or Flo. I haven’t heard anything on this though. All I’ve been told is Beyoncé is starting her stadium dates in May next year which (to me) puts her out of the picture. 

Disclaimer: Literally just passing on what I heard. I’m not claiming to be 100% in the know. But these rumours came from very good sources. 

Cheers for the info.

I'm going too with the scenario that AM are in which we know, GNR are in but not replacing Taylor and the 3rd is open.

While it may be 3 males, I don't think it's going to be Elton.

I'd take Florence as the 3rd.

my final prediction before ticket day is

AM

It won't be Rhianna and Eminem, they've been there and done that back when it was. That really is a case of ideas run out

did you hear that it's AM friday, GnR saturday then? Or could GnR be Sunday and the mystery headliner on the Saturday? Just wondering about scheduling

He’s had solid info in the past which is why we’re prone to believing him this time - he’s not just some rando who’s popped up with info that we’re all latching on to.

Changed my mind already from my earlier prediction and am going with:

Arctic Monkeys

Rihanna

Guns N Roses

Gonna go ahead and assume Elton moved that Paris date to accommodate his to-be-announced BST date and he’s avoiding the fest until the end.

Head says he's doing BST, heart says Glasto. 

So yeah it'll probably be the former!!

Why would Elton be at BST? He did that earlier this year... Or did I miss something?

Because it sold out instantly this year and it’ll be peoples last chance to ever see him so they may well have just booked him again for one last instant sell out. People with usually good info have said he’s doing it, so guess we shall see.

    • Rotten communication. Actually god awful. Posting sporadically on IG, closing Mordor only to reopen and cause some serious carnage. Left the festival as it got too much for my 16year old daughter. She was devastated about Alex G and Mac…but TV girl could have saved it. Took us until 1220 and already home to find out they might/are playing. Pish.    and on another note, this festival has lost its bastard soul. Gone are the wee tents with local sellers selling vinyl, t shirts etc, now you can buy a 50 f**king eur official T-shirt. The ar*e is truely out of this event now. I went to Porto for the first time last year and it was fab. I love Barcelona and the line up is always stacked, but this festival is a corporate loss take. Hopefully a better day tomorrow.
    • f**king horrendous and seems they couldn’t run an egg and spoon race.  zero info and the crush waiting to get in to see Massive Attack was potentially disasterous. Zero info, no stewards at all and was told that the whole evening was cancelled, when we got to the exit. Because it rained. First time attendee and i’ve got onsay, i’m far from impressed. Scalping bastard taxis asking €37 plus for an €11 fare too. Wonderdul.
    • Rumours are it's called The Lost Tour. In the US in September. Ireland in November (so UK+Europe a good bet around November/early December). 
    • Hey guys, is there a group going for any solo y not goers this year?? I couldn’t miss out once I saw the acts but it’s just me and would be great to meet some others:))
    • After deciding to abandon the festival, here's a few of my thoughts (mostly negative tbf).    On the positive side - was it just me or were there a few more urinals than last year? Seemed to help the queues at the loos a bit from what i saw. Plus they had at least had some foresight and had a few more covered areas in the VIP areas.    Now on the negatives.  The weather was admittedly pretty crap but it wasn't apocalyptic. How the actual f**k are bits of the main stage falling off in those conditions?  Then the communication was awful, there's a load of people who left the site because they were told by security guards/other personnel that there would be no more acts on the main stage this evening.  You have an app Primavera, use it! Yes, there's a shitload going on I'm sure but communication with the festivalgoers should be one of the top priorities. You failed.    And I'm not usually somebody who buys into the whole "oh this is hugely unsafe and it's lucky people weren't hurt" narrative, but all the above led to movements of people that were genuinely unsafe.  Evacuating Mordor entirely (again... Why???) and then having a horde of people trying to get in because they thought they were going to Massive Attack was insane.  And given a lot of people basically abandoned ship around 10.30pm the crush at both the exit to the festival and the entrance to the Metro was pretty dangerous.   Conditions happen, most people will get that....but the contingencies have to be better.
