Imagine not thinking The Weeknd would fucking destroy a headline slot.

 

im lost for words with some responses 

He didn’t slay Coachella, so there’s precedent.

He’s certainly got the jams, but it’s not necessarily a slam dunk.

True but it was a fairly last minute thing, chucked in with SHM.

 

his US tour has been stellar. And every other tour he’s had in the past also.

Yeah there were mitigating circumstances for sure. 

I haven’t seen any clips of other tours, but will have a look.

Halsey to headline other?

Plausible! As far as pop goes she’s a decent artist, i’d say!

I just looked this up and I've never heard it before! I live in a weird bubble.

649 million views of the video, but I’ve not heard it either until now (Sounds pretty good).

Of course its two shell haha

How a tiny act like them convince Primavera to give them a special billing is beyond me

Which time cause he headlined in 2018 ya know. 
 

Oh wait, I said Halsey could headline Other probably way back when and got shat on. Look at who is fucking laughing now at getting a Prima headline slot with Blur.

Most recent one, didn’t know he headlined back in 2018, I tend to avoid Coachella news because it’s a big pile of shite.

Not saying she won't but Halsey's performance on the Other stage back in I think 2017? had an extremely low turnout, don't think it reached the sound desk let alone more than a few rows back

Can confirm, we watched a bit while we were walking up to the Park, barely anyone there. She's had 2 well acclaimed albums since though according to Google so maybe she has a stronger following. Wouldn't see her as a massive deal or big enough to headline large events though.

Was easily the most empty headline set at Reading & Leeds this year too.

Not sure it's a brag tbh, seems to be that they ran out of budget on the other headliners and stuck her on there. A bit like RandL have done when they tried to have 2 headliners a night several years ago.

That Primavera lineup has some good names, but personally I preferred last year. Please can we have Le Tigre, Laurie Anderson and Sparks for the undercard though?

[Supermerv]

Sparks for the Legends slot?

Calvin Harris is headlining Prima and he played Arcadia. You get shat on cos you talk a load of absolute guff.

The Halsey Arms, about an hours drive from Pilton.  Cheerful looking benches, five stars.
