No problem with Elton playing, just let's have artists in the appropriate slots. I don't like him, but he is a legend, get him in that slot, free up the headline slot for someone more contemporary.

I didn't get to see either due to clashes but Bille and Kendrick are the sort of booking they should be looking at for headliners. Saw Billie in 2019, she was very good.

If it is AM, GNR and Elton then yeah we're missing the kinda booking of Billie, Kenny, Stormzy etc

But it's 3 massive headliners, 2 of which are debutants. 

It's a decent trio.

I saw her in 2019. As mime artists go, she’s no Marcel Marceau.

Will Elton join Rina Sawayama or vice versa? That’s the main question.

Usually more likely that the smaller artist joins the bigger artist. Has a Pyramid headliner ever appeared earlier in the day on a smaller stage? I'm sure it has happened but I can't think of one.

Would be fine with Prodigy vs Elton. No need for more Reg after the finale last week. Tough to do better, especially as its just on Disney Plus to watch whenever. 

Nah - very easy to do better ... on the Pyramid with all you lovely people.  Waaaay better 😊

Alex Turner joined Miles Kane in the John Peel tent to do a last shadow puppets track when they headlined in 2013. Can’t think of any more .

I think Bruce joined the Gaslight Anthem in 09… but I may be making that up.

Did I mention I love threads like this ... im buzzing for this announcement , was feeling a bit grumpy with talk of gnr and am earlier 

That was me earlier - but this has me buzzing now.  Really can't think of anyone else (other than Taylor obvs) who would be a better booking this year.  The stars are hopefully aligning

Who would guest with him? Would love Dua of course.

Maybe Eminem, so Reg could have some hip hop after having his hip op😉

You laugh but he did actually work with Em, he did the chorus on the Live version of Stan on Curtain Call. Think he’s a bit beyond hip hop now though! 😂

    • I think my party got pretty lucky last night, at least compared to some of the horror stories over on Reddit. I was very impressed with Father John Misty in particular.   Perhaps my view would be different if I were a big Massive Attack fan or whatever, but right now my feeling is that if it's not safe for the shows to go ahead... then it's not safe for the shows to go ahead. I'd much rather they were cautious than roll the dice when it comes to something like that.    Here's hoping everyone has a better day today. 
    • It was awful during Father John Misty and I was close to the front. People just shouting and laughing their f-ing heads off about nothing in particular and being louder than the bloody stage.
    • Other things I noted yesterday, away from the obvious…   Positives: - an extra water point towards the back left of the main stages has appeared, which I believe is new for this year (and was much needed) - handing out free ponchos was a good touch  - caroline were fantastic. I’d never been in the Auditori Rockdelux before, it’s a wonderful venue and a great venue if you fancy a more chilled out environment  Negatives: - the talkers. I know it’s always bad here (and most festivals nowadays) but f**k me people wouldn’t shut up yesterday. I wonder if it was partly as a result of people being at artists they had little interest in (due to rain limiting their options), although it wasn’t great during blood orange. We’ll be making an effort to get a spot nearer the front for anyone we particularly care about over the weekend  - not enough staff around (and the ones that are there are largely useless). Most other festivals have them everywhere and are happy to help
