It wouldn’t be any more baffling than SZA. But it wouldn’t be sensible either. Their commercial peak was six or seven years ago already. 

And even then the best they got at Glasto was either sub or Other headliner. So I'd assume they'd be back in one of those slots.

Any indication they're around next year?

 

Suspect I'd not watch if they did tbh.

Might be wrong but don’t think Sam Smith has played a set on the farm since being lumped with the ‘opposite Dolly’ slot in 2014. Don’t blame them if that was an insult that still lingers tbh.

Just that indulgent performance of Latch with Disclosure this year.

To me? 

Some posts have been removed due to personal insults, this may have caused some confusion.

 

I’ve since learned the real reason why the insult was made

Interesting, wasn't aware there was such history.

 

Forgot as well tbf just how f**king massive a crowd Dolly drew when she was in the Sunday legend slot.

Oh. Let me say, if I have upset anyone unintentionally, I do apologise - it certainly was not meant to be so.

Linkin Park are headlining. Just got a text from a good source. Really surprised with that, could be looking at a SZA sized crowd. 

Reliable source? I would definitely be there if they play. Please tell me instead of 1975

It was me that unintentionally upset someone. They gave a response which made absolutely no sense in context, including an unwarranted insult

which has been removed by the mod team as it broke  the forum rules .... mod team are happy to listen to any further discussion if you want to DM any of us .... but this thread is about headliners and most would like it to remain so . Thanks Skip

    • Thomas Partey, knocked back by Canadian immigration now.
    • I'm sure someone can update you on the clashfinder, and it will be pretty accurate by the time the festival comes around. It's a large flat-ish arena with main stage in the open air, no best side I'd say. Leadmill (3rd stage medium tent) is at the back of the main arena, T'Other (2nd stage big tent) 5 min walk round the corner. At full capacity walking around can take a bit more time though. I noticed that The Enemy are scheduled to not fully overlap with Wolf Alice, so you could catch part of their set too.   You can walk around anywhere with a beer, with most bars the usual mass market stuff, but one nice craft ale tent, back of the arena near the Leadmill stage. A main meal will set you back £10-15, but cheaper snacks also available. Expect a pint to be £7-8. Possibly a bit more this year as prices everywhere are increasing.   It's fairly easy to get to from the town centre using the tram, although can be busy at peak times / very busy at curfew. If you like a walk, it's approx 40 mins to Kelham Island (lots of indy venues) and probably an hour to the city, or catch an Uber. There will be loads of 'fringe' music events on around the city right through the weekend. Most are free. Have a wonderful trip, enjoy the festival, and your stay in our city! 
    • I think people on a place like this, that clearly value live music more than most, don't. I'd rather an academy than an arena every day. But I could see a few people that care about "the gram" than the actual music wanting an arena experience even if it's a mid sized band. 
    • The single worst shout for any slot on any stage in the history of efests. Worse even than the Wursels or The Wombles.    Unlikely I’d be there, but okay with the other two. Boy George is a class act, plus he could DJ in Block 9    
    • Do people want an arena experience though? Especially for sub par bands. Rather a band do more nights at an independent venue for more money than 1 big one.
