I think it’ll one of Fender or Dave taking the step up but not both in the same year. Could go either way.

They could always team up and do it together.

Sam and Dave.

Foos for Reading I think, I don't think they've skipped Reading on an album apart from once....maybe. they won't be playing Glastonbury on a second touring year and with the likes of Wechter, Roskilde, Nos and Hellfest getting festival slots for them and having done RAR this year, there isn't a reason for them to be in Europe early year.

I forgot Foo Fighters as an option. I mean, I was calling them a dead cert to top this coming year after The Churnups.

Throw them into the pile. I'm going from Billy Joel, Dave, Foo Fighters, Harry Styles, Olivia Rodrigo, Rihanna, Sam Fender, Taylor Swift and The 1975.

Oasis, like the Stone Roses, will take the coin available elsewhere if they ever get back together.

If they ever reform I think they’ll do Glastonbury. It might not be their first stop or even in the first year of touring, but both brothers love it so I reckon they’d take the one low payday understanding how massive them doing the festival again would be.

Sam Fender isn't a headliner (yet), in the same bracket as Royal Blood, LG, George Ezra... i.e. perfect size to sub the pyramid

They will do it as 1 final shot to to do it right. They will most likely balls it up and stink up the place by playing song from be here now onwards.

He already subbed the pyramid and is one of the biggest rising stars in the UK. He’s way bigger than Royal Blood and more culturally relevant than George Ezra.

Yeah if/when Oasis reform they’ll play Glastonbury, I’m sure.

I don't personally think he's grown in popularity enough to bridge the gap yet though is my point  - would say he's roughly at the same size now as he was in 2022. His next album (in 2024 at some point) would have to be really huge for him to become a headliner size act.

If he did return to the farm in 2025 off the back of new material, I think he'd be headlining the Other stage. Happy to be wrong though, I like his music and would watch him headline the pyramid for sure.

Well he was originally booked to play 4th down in 2022 and was given the bump up when Doja Cat dropped which ended up being the perfect slot for him given how fast his popularity was growing at the time. By all accounts he got one of the biggest crowds of the weekend and was really well received. Since then he's headlined R+L, Trnsmt, Finsbury Park sold out multiple stadium dates in Newcastle and he had a sold out arena tour not long before his Glastonbury appearance too.

There's only one way a fresh act like that is heading and it's not repeating the same kinda slot they played last time.

[CaledonianGonzo]

All true, but I think he still needs his third album to go over large seal the deal.
