I am liking your thinking.  Just need Fred on WH Saturday Night and I would be doing Fri Other / Sat WH / Sun Pyramid.  Would be incredible

Yeah I need Fred Again badly, including Skrillex if possible!

This Fred geezer gets a lot of chat on here doesn't he. He's totally passed me by

Good-looking white guy with watered-down bangers. Catnip for anyone who thinks Jamie xx and Disclosure are the best things to happen to dance music in the last 10 years.

....I'm just being cheeky 😅 he seems like a nice bloke and I quite like a few of his tracks. The level of attention he gets is pretty baffling though.

AM, GNR, EJ

 

1975, Prodigy and some other big sub being Lizzo?

 

great

sounds ace but…. the 1975 clashing with AM would be nightmare fuel for me

You guys, I listened to/watched recent live GnR. I’ve had tears of incredulous laughter running down my face for minutes. There’s bad and there’s whatever the addled pub singer that was. 

I don’t care who and what looks likely. That cannot happen. I’ll go out of a limb and say I’d rather see Honking Flo. And I can’t stand her. 

Wow, I was up for GnR it until you sent me that clip. Really embarassing from Axl. Time has been particularly cruel to him. Or drugs. Probably both.

[CaledonianGonzo]

Not seen any good clips of any acts playing G23 so my ticket's going back in the pot.

Subbing Pyramid or Legend Slot as an outside bet? Blur to open the Other Stage unannounced... hopefully.

Are they busy Friday? I could see them subbing AM

Love him for his drum pad skills, very open about mental health and has a fantastic catalogue of good tracks.

 

least he’d be better than the same old Chemical Brothers who really haven’t made anything great for years 🤷🏽‍♂️🤷🏽‍♂️

 

or chuck in Camelphat ahead of Chemical as well. 

[scaryclaireyfairy]

Hear me out - Pulp Saturday, GnR legends?

CalGon, I’m not a perfectionist, I don’t care about some bum notes and GnR have the tunes but Axl isn’t able.

This is an absolute grenade

Come on, she’s a mega star in the same bracket as Elton.

 

I wouldn't say so.  There are certain celebrities for whom their fame massively outstrips their talent.  Madge is the Queen of this.  Elton John has the fame and the chops to back it up.  Huge difference IMO.

I was at the Skrillex Other headline show a few years back and fucking loved it.  Was considerably drunk +, spangled though, so would have probably raved to a passing ice cream van.

What are you basing 1975 on?

Just can’t stand the love for Chemical Brothers. They’re good, but so many better DJ’s from the UK 🤣🤣

 

Gone to far too many festivals, I trust my own opinion

They’re playing across Europe festivals

It’d be a brave call by Arctic and the lads. Didn’t Pulp double-head R&L with The Strokes and Pulp blew them away.

I've started a fight.

Joking aside tho Fred seems to get an insane amount of mentions on here. I popped him on for a second and it does remind me a bit of disclosure. I actually like disclosure (I like most things) but the attention he gets s a bit unbalanced.

I will give him a proper listen.

Perfect way to highlight that you really don't know what you're talking about.

Thought someone in here had literally spoken to a band member and had been told they're not doing it

Also would question if they would accept OS when they're probably easily a full headliner popularity

I kinda do fella.

Imagine getting so angry about saying CB ain’t the greatest.

 

so so so many better DJ’s

[discgoesmic]

Has anyone considered the combination of The Weeknd on Friday, Muse on Saturday, Elton on Sunday? Dates for the former two seem to line up and it would be diverse. The Friday night is also often the more contemporary slot and Muse would have enough material to fill the longer Saturday slot.

I think its more suggesting camelphat. Literally the worst dj to come through in years
