This is kind of different in that they are telling us, with the line-up drop, that third down on Pyramid - one of the prime spots of the weekend - is a special guest artist. To quickly run through all the mooted options: Foo Fighters would be in line with Grohl's festival love but also a blow if they were promptly back to headline in 2024, Blur would effectively make sense but also have the same potential of a 2024 top slot, The 1975 would be foolish to accept it if they believe themselves at headline level, and RHCP would... well, Royal Blood would take 'em in a heartbeat, let's say that. So. Pulp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DYRTFT Posted June 4, 2023 Report Share Posted June 4, 2023 Didn’t someone post a list of all the previous mystery band names from previous secret acts? How many of them were linked to an obscure reference to a band one of them once had? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s just a silly name and has no direct link to the act who will play! Also, it’s Pulp 😁 This is all correct. It's just the dairy farm. The Evii are sat there reading this thread laughing their arses off. It's Pulp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So. Pulp. I don't really buy this argument. Only one or maybe two of these male rock guitar bands can headline in 2024 or 2025, so it is not like all of them will have a slot in the next three years. 1975 have been ruled out per this thread, and are perhaps the only one who may headline in the next two years. I don't think the hints suggest anything, and it only depends on how much the organisers were willing to please attendees with the most requested band (Pulp) when they took the decision. I have no idea what is the answer. Edited June 4, 2023 by emmanuel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Euphoricape Posted June 4, 2023 Report Share Posted June 4, 2023 (edited) Are Wet Leg ruled out for any reason? Can't understand why they haven't got a big spot this year after the chaos of last year in the Park. Also Mars Volta are in London couple days before the festival, could be a TBA..

I think this rules out any artist who has less than about 3 albums. Edited June 4, 2023 by emmanuel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s Pulp, they’re on a comeback tour and maybe for the last time, they’ve got a gap especially for Glasto, they’re friends of the festival, their tour tickets came on sale a few days after the full lineup so wanted a secret slot so people still bought their tour tickets. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uscore Posted June 4, 2023 Report Share Posted June 4, 2023 If I were Pulp, or indeed whoever the Churnups is, I'd be delighted with how successful this announcement has been, and I'd do everything to keep it a secret for as long as possible.

Because they don’t have 1hr 15 mins of material, and that slot isn’t bigger than they should have so why would it need to be a secret?

Supernintendo Chalmers Posted June 4, 2023 Report Share Posted June 4, 2023 Putting the Foos on before Royal Blood and Arctic Monkeys could backfire spectacularly, in terms of the top two being a anticlimactic. I doubt either of the superseding bands (or the festival) would want to be upstaged by an extremely busy and emotional (for obvious reasons) set from Sprinty Dave and the Fellas. Pulp, although they'd be very popular, I don't see them getting as frenzied a reaction as the Foos. Another reason why I still think it's Jarvis and Co. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The problem for Royal Blood is there are very few bands who won’t make their set seem anticlimactic 😁 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pulp put on what is widely renowned as one of the best headline performances ever. It’ll be a cracking and popular show. Blur are still amazing live and one of the biggest and most important British bands of the last 30 years, and this current live run is spectacular as someone who seen them two nights ago. All three would get massive reactions. Also to put the cat amongst the pigeons Blur are magnitudes better than Oasis who are just a 90s Mumford and Sons. Sorry not sorry. (I’m also fully aware a Oasis reunion would be the biggest tour in the world, not denying their popularity) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
