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.

I mean I have no evidence it’s anything more than a coincidence they haven’t played since that, but it would definitely make sense.

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

 

GIven they have anounced the London as there only UK headline show in addition to there being no consecutive dates In the tour to Let Emily's voice recover between shows. I'd say given the London show is the Glastonbury Saturday. They are ruled out of appearing at festival this time. 

 

I'd say your mate is pulling your leg.

Fabulous

But sadly, it's just You Raise Me Up played a dozen times in a row, followed by the Pokemon 2000 version of Flying Without Wings.

 

Genuinely, Flying Without Wings is the end credits song in the second Pokemon movie. I kid you not.

[NorthernSoul52]

I could still buy Linkin Park playing a date on the Sunday, but I'd wager it more likely to be a second Wembley show rather than the G.

 

Until we hear otherwise on a concrete perspective, will hedge with The 1975, Olivia Rodrigo and Sam Fender.

For what it's worth discord think it's about as realistic as we do.

Linkin Park headlining without Chester, presumably.

Unlikely I’d be there, unless they brought Jay Z along, but at least it’d be loads less boring than The 1975, Fender or O Rod

LP headlining in general. Chester may not be there but it was just a case of I doubt the info is true at all. I don't think you can probably headline Wembley and say oh they can't do it without Chester, it's just very unlikely to be happening. 

[NorthernSoul52]

Has anybody ever headlined Wembley Stadium and topped the G in the same weekend?

[Rose-Colored Boy]

Hopefully LP end up at Reading and Chappell ends up at Glastonbury and all will be well with the world.

Can someone post The 1975 info from discord please? I just want it to be true, the odds look pretty good

Dunno about Wembley specifically but SZA headlined BST and Glastonbury on consecutive nights earlier this year, which is basically the same. 

[NorthernSoul52]

I just think Linkin Park are skipping the festival circuit this year. It's not a bad bet, per se.

Yeah, indeed. Kind of a similar principle.

Am I the only one who will be at another stage for O Rod and also the 1975 if that's who it turns out to be? 

After Coldplays performance last year being such a spectacle it will take a hell of a show from anyone

Olivia won’t be bringing out a person with Parkinson’s to perform ‘Fix You’ so she’s already an improvement on Coldplay in one respect

Think there will be plenty going elsewhere, but think there will be plenty there too. I'd argue there won't be a SZA-style crowd for any of the three mooted acts. The 1975 likely draw the smallest, but by no means are they going to be disgraced on numbers by the other two.

Nope, I’ll be at another stage too. They’ll both pull in a decent crowd but not for me!

[NorthernSoul52]

As for spectacle, think both Olivia Rodrigo and The 1975 will have a few visual tricks and conceits up their sleeve if it is indeed them.

 

Fender will play a very straight bat though. Nothing fancy there.

Haha I struggle to slag Coldplay because J Buckland is from the next village over and his aunty was my English teacher in school. F Chris Martin though
