2025 Headliners

[Suprefan]

Fred Again just got a phone call.....

[NorthernSoul52]

Isn't Fred Again still burned out?

[wro_lap]

Pretty sure it isn't corporate *enough* for AC/DC

[NorthernSoul52]

Surely can't afford AC/DC, no?

[steviewevie]

Aren't most of ACDC dead? Sunday afternoon slot at the most.

Actually very baffled that Neil Young has been quite this vocal. Given that Michael thinks so highly of him, unorthodox to say the least.

 

Love to know what was said or done that provoked that article 

contract stuff. If he didnt like certain things that couldnt be changed and such then he just said no. Or if he had been signed on and discovered this he backed out and thats that. Either broadcast stuff or if he had to do certain things.

 

 

Neil "doesnt play corporate festivals"  Young

 

 

[Little Thief]

Maybe Neil was worried he’d be cornered backstage by that twat with the ukulele from last year

Man, should I return my ticket cause of how corporate Glasto is becoming?

Eh. Treat it like its Coachella and take as many selfies for the Gram as your phone's storage space can handle.

[OllieMadd]

1975 / Muse / ORod is unforgivably shite

[brendan84]

Big blow this with the other 2 very underwhelming choices 

[TheSheriff]

Big kick in the balls for me this, always had a feeling deep in my stomach that BBC coverage was gonna be an issue 

[henry bear]

Only one person can replace Shakey

This was also my fear as well 😔

[steviewevie]

if it just the tv coverage I think Neil Young needs to pull his head out of his arse.

[Ben7amin_]

Go get Jarvis et al 

[foolee]

Muse 

[MEGABOWL]

I feel like this has created an opportunity for some Pulp action

[Gnomicide]

Deleted cos it was bollocks.

[MichaelDoyle]

Duran Duran

[therefused]

Pulp are headlining tramlines, are they big enough to headline the pyramid just a month before?

Stinks that he drops Glastonbury because "too corporate" when he's played festivals like this. 

And headlined BST twice.

Only once when it was sponsored by Barclaycard in 2014. 2019 he said he wouldn't play unless sponsorship was removed, and that happened.

A festival with no corporate sponsors that wasn't televised anywhere? Yeah great point you're making there.

Stevie would be great. Shame about Young but there’s always a chance he could have rocked up and done a curmudgeon set. Instead he’s just flounced off over TV coverage instead. More convenient this way.

Agreed. Having watched his excellent set in 2009 I have a feeling it wouldn’t be anywhere near as good.
