That's how journalism works?

Also,we don't know where these names come from...same places as they originate in here, various people in the industry.

That might be how it works at the local rag level nowadays. But do we waste any time discussing the latest click bait from Somerset Live?

Somerset Live doesn’t have the same history of ruining lives as that rag so we should give it less notice still. 
How do I know where they got the names from? I don’t. But from their previous years predictions I have a bloody good idea

What's your issue?

 

They've probs pinched it from the discord which is where the news of Charli, O Rod, Chappell broke- not on here. 

this is f**king boring every day.  So childish.

Hmm yeah maybe but not beyond the realms of possibility that they have a guy in there. Although all of what they are reporting is a week or 2 old now so maybe they don't.

Which goes to show how often the ‘intel’ changes on locked in headliners 😂🫠

well i do because Charli and Chappell were never mentioned here until confirmation came from elsewhere. SO one way or another it came from there. 

“confirmation” lol 

 

Mate, it’s all rumours until acts are definitely booked, and the only truly official way to know they have been is when they’re announced. Name me one rumour that isn’t hearsay.
 

You’re coming across like a trolling simp for elsewhere and it’s a poor look. 

[Nobby's Old Boots]

Aaaaand here we go yet again. 

"I've got sources" vs "sources don't exist."

Talk about boring.

Thread about to be derailed for pages on end again. Any chance of a separate thread where this can be hashed out and we can all choose to avoid?

It's weird cause I saw you posting about not having listened to much Neil Young buy you have been recently. I'm sure that's a coincidence and not cause you think he's headlining glasto lol. Wonder why you think he's headlining? 🤣

the thread was derailed by people crying about The Sun

Still have no idea what your point is about the sun? Seems to be that you're wound up that it was mentioned and people have voiced their distaste at it? 

Very strange.

Why does the S*n Newspaper envy the real sun?…..

 

 

 

Because no matter how hard it tries, it can’t shine without throwing shade

My anecdote would be “because the real sun is something we can NOT live without”

Instead of discussing any of the names in the article, it immediately became a competition as to who hates the Sun more as it always does on here. 

 

Not every post needs to be prefaced with 'I hate the Sun'

You don't get to choose what people post about so if they want to post their opinion on the sun then they can.

Ignore it & get over it.

It's a Glastonbury headliner thread, apologies for thinking it was a better to discuss Glastonbury headliners than politics and hillsborough.

Every response you make perpetuates the discussion … if you want to talk about headliners then do so and the thread goes back to that topic … 

[Mr Boo]

I suppose in the Sun’s defence at least they are interested about who is headlining (even if is just about selling papers) and that in turn generates discussion here.

ps I hate the Sun

It’s much better to discuss the latter. This thread is just an endless circle of pointless speculation

Exactly. 

He's so concerned about keeping it on topic he's constantly posting about other people's dislike of a newspaper.

At the same time, you could choose not to make it a thread about how hurt you are that people aren’t recognising the source from which you first found out about specific rumours. It’s beyond tedious.

Jesus   The trolling in here this morning. Has a batch of dirt cheep coke turned up?

I know that Stevie Wonder is definitely at BST this yr. He is doing it with Mariah Carey

Given they could do it individually I'm raising an eyebrow at why they'd feel the need to do it as a duo.

not a duo, she is just playing on the same day

Could Mariah Carey really do it? I mean for a non-Christmas tour?

 

Looking at her setlists, she seems to do Christmas themed shows in Nov/Dec, and then completely different shows in the other 10 months (which don't usually have any of the Christmas songs in them).

 

This is the setlist from her recent Vegas run, and tbh it's not something that I'd expect to fill Hyde Park:

I reckon she could do BST, sure.  Its not a typical festival and if it was her only UK show she'd pack it.

 

She's not a support act at any rate.

If people knew they were getting the Vegas setlist, I'm not sure she'd get it half full.

 

Though yeah without making that clear she maybe could sell it out, albeit then leaving a lot of people disappointed on the day.

Put it on sale around now and as said, a uk exclusive, and would be fine.

 

Seems unlikely she'd support Stevie - he would have dirt cheap support surely as he's guaranteed to sell it well
