2025 Headliners

[nectarofthegods]

From the looks of Michael at Coldplay last year, sadly I don’t think he has the cognitive ability to veto anyone anymore. Regardless Emily would carry the grudge if RHCP really did piss them about which it sounds they did

Anyone talking about the fact that Miley Cyrus is confirmed to be back rehearsing with her full band?

When was her last performance in UK/Europe??

Since glasto. Covid happened and after that all she did was south america and north american festivals.

I mean it's amazing.

 

Only topped by the fact that Snow Patrol just got the number one album.

 

and they finally will get to make up for missing out last time. 3rd down Pyramid seems right. Unless you wanna have em headline like Woodsies and they would def be too big for that.

Source? Did not know she was going back on the road.....

Any chance of Pink getting the call? Or is she doing a Las Vegas residency.

I reckon the chances must have gone way up

Wasn't he still driving around the farm this year? Could have sworn I'd seen him at the wheel.

shania was doing vegas and still got the call.

 

She hasnt done Vegas and is still doing perfectly fine with a stadium tour at the moment. The acrobatics can be done outdoors so thats not the issue

Are we back to the age-old "Is Pink big enough?" question.

 

She is. End of.

Not very relevant though it must be said!

Michael has outright said that it did. And even before that, there was the story that the festival turned them down in 2005 when they offered to step in for Kylie.

Picking basement jaxx over RHCP absolutely mad lol

Sorry to be that person but it's been quite a while since I had a little ganders on here! Can't be bothered to scroll back through opinions...who's got the solid rumours? What's the latest? Surely there's at least one act which everyone deems to be locked in by now? 

 

Roundup pretty please anyone?

Fred seems a lock - other names being chucked about are Olivia Rodrigo, Stevie, Rihanna etc.

 

edit + Eminem

Fred again..., Rihanna and a quote-unquote heritage headliner would do delights for me, thank you.

 

Preferably Billy Joel.

Thanks... not bad at all to be fair. 

 

I'd love a Fred/O-Rod/Eminem combo personally 🤞🏼 But Stevie would also be golden instead of Eminem (still can't see Eminem doing it).

 

Now just give us a sale date already so we can start to panick!

I can respect the chutzpah in having both Fred again... and Olivia Rodrigo. It's effectively doubling down on last year and the idea we can have two "young" headliners in the same year, who only have a handful of albums between them. (I know FA has more, but it's not like the first two have left much of a commercial footprint.)

As far as we know that wasn't the original plan (or even the second third one) - it was more forced upon them.

His break out song and still one of his biggest on spotify (like will be biggest again once new album listening dies down) is on his first actual life (so second album)

 

We've lost dancing that is - not sure why the brackets bit was added!

That's a fair point. But perhaps they're emboldened by it.

Those rogue brackets get everywhere.

 

He's very much a man for the non-record buying public though. #7 with a new record is soft, which tells you where the commercial power is driven from instead.

I'd expect their #1 priority is avoiding a repeat of SZA.  Fred and Olivia should ensure that that doesn't happen - but the fact that they're young debutantes is tangential to that.

I understand why they went for SZA when plans fell through. But three months on, it feels destined to be one of those misfires we come back to time and again.
