That's weaker than the Tory party. The missing headliner must be huge to balance out Chase and Status (who are great btw, but not a headliner at a 50k festival).

Chase & Status are MASSIVE at the moment, especially with the GCSE lot, don't think they are a weak booking at all imo

Chase and status were excellent in 2016 and seem to be dominating the hit parade atm!

stormzy will be great too last saw him in 2017 and it was great.

some great acts there me and my mates aged 23-27 all going are thrilled.

 

Stormzy  playing the Sunday makes me feel like there’s a big act on the Saturday for the more mature folk. Blur/pulp?

It’s the chroma show. Will be land of the saints a la Jamie xx 2021. Bicep live would 100% sub main stage if not headline it 

Oh yeah I know it's Chroma, but just wasn't sure where it'd be place - Land of Saints defo makes most sense

They've booked the Bowl in Milton Keynes, which caught me by surprise as I didn't know they were that big.

Drumsheds date sold out very very fast too, would say they're quite possibly at a re-peak of their career atm

They are 100% bigger than some of the recent boardmasters headliners - especially with the crowd.

Far bigger than say Jorja Smith in 2021

They really have done away with the indie / rock it seems this year

Just going back to this, Milton Keynes date is sold out already... That's like 60/65k tickets shifted.

Well clearly they're a more popular deal than I realised.

They’re obviously very popular - baddadan is one of those songs I just can’t seem to escape at the moment it’s everywhere

however I still think they must have been pretty cheap - cheaper than all 3 of last years headliners - so I agree that our missing one will (hopefully) be big and we get a strong undercard too

Reckon they cost more than Lorde tbh. But yeah, do think the final headliner will be a bigger name.

Would be surprised if lorde was more expensive to be honest

    • I was assuming September in Stirling might have a different issue tbf in the form of it just pissing it down.
    • Yeah so many of mine seem to be just France v Spain in one semi and England/Brazil v Argentina in the other. But the fact those combos are the obvious ones mean it feels unlikely that'll happen because in World Cup history, you very rarely end up with what pre-tournament looks like the obvious final 4. We all see teams outperform and underperform. Which one is the fall guy is a different matter.   I've said elsewhere that for me, there's a hierarchy of Spain, France and Argentina as the 3 strongest looking, then England and Portugal, then Brazil and Germany, but that overall, they'd be the 7 likeliest to win. So I dunno, maybe this will be the time the Netherlands avenge the failure of total football in 1974 and achieve what they couldn't achieve through whatever the f**k Nigel de Jong was with his 2010 final karate moves.
    • Oh I think Infantino should resign. His handling of the whole WC process has been an utter shitshow. But you know. That would require him having integrity or something.
    • Good Charlotte would be fine third down or subbing. If they can get a bigger sub and still get GC, they’ll play third down.
