Assume you mean Roan rather than Dave?

Given he wanted £100 for a gig at the Albert Hall the other year (admittedly one where Jon Stewart also came along), I doubt he'd be appearing for a low fee.

Pulp to sub Saturday beneath Neil Young, Duran Duran to sub Sunday below Olivia Rodrigo.

 

We think Pulp could draw a bigger crowd than NY if that happens?

Almost certainly, but who gives a f**k? Both will be great.

The excitement of having a 1-2 I actually want to see. Pleeaasse Emily make it happen.

By my reckoning, it'll be the first time I've deliberately done a 1-2 on the Pyramid since 2008..

[steviewevie]

Yay I can watch the subs and then have an early night.

Only time I remember doing so was also 2008, Amy Winehouse, Jay Z

I'm installing updates on a server so have time on my hands, so i thought i'd see how many times i've done that:

 

2023 - lil nas x > Elton (only cos we all got there early for Elton)

 

2022 - High Flying Birds > Macca

 

2019 - Vampire Weekend > The Cure

 

2014 - Jack White > Metallica

 

2013 - Dizzee > Arctics

 

2011 - Morrisy > U2 , wish i hadn't bothered with morissy though, borish

 

2007 - Kaiser Cheifs > The Who

 

2005 - a triple! Doves > Killers > White Stripes

 

1999 - Underworld > Manics

 

loads more than I thought, though most of them are when I was with big groups of friends, so tagged along.

Noel > McCartney had my lower back in tatters. Think I made it 6 hours I was stood in the pit for it. Was also the year I was at the back end of the Campervan field - staggered back after it. One or my most cherished memories from all the years of going though.

 

Primal Scream before the Stones went down like a lead balloon. Bobby wasn't happy.

 

We're getting Pulp here, surely?

Me too!! I was at back of pit.  Got there towards end of Haim, so was 6+ hours stood rooted to the spot as it was so rammed.  I desperately wanted to stretch my legs or bend my back a bit, but no room - LOL! 

[danbailey80]

Pulp surely playing. Either Other Stage headline or Subbing P.

This info/something you’ve heard or just speculation cause they’re touring? Pulp subbing Neil (the slot I assume they’d be most likely in) would be an all timer sub/head combo.

Probably don't need to clear it up now but the dates announced today was my info

 Absolutely mega 1-2 that. Incredible day but by the end of Macca i was hopping between both feet as i'd had my converse on and my feet were killing!

I think if they did some juggling and Pulp was Other on Friday with 1975 and Charli on Pyramid to save on crowding that would work. But youre still asking for a ramming of Pulp to Charli though  unless they think loads will stick around for Neil Young.

[FKA SOSOTWS]

I don't see much overlap between the crowds that would attend both Pulp and Charli...

[NorthernSoul52]

I think you might be surprised. Reckon there's more crossover between them than either with NY, for example.

Nope not really, neither would question me missing Pulp at Glastonbury.

Can't just be me in the middle of that venn diagram 

[jonnytee1]

Surely though some people are in the same boat as me and have “must sees” on the main stages and once the reality of life and glasto kicks in - you never end up where you expected to 😂😂

Literally my entire group of 12 would be going to both of those

[NorthernSoul52]

Aye. Think Charli is ideal counter-programming to Neil, and there's enough "cool" cachet between her and Pulp to make an obvious crossover.

[OllieMadd]

If Pulp and Neil Young clash I will cry

[NorthernSoul52]

Not a snake's chance of that.

 

Right now, feels like:

 

The 1975 / ???

Loyle Carner

 

Neil Young / Pulp

Charli XCX

 

Olivia Rodrigo / Duran Duran

The Prodigy

 

Let me stress, absolutely no basis for Pulp, Charli XCX, Duran Duran or The Prodigy outside of date speculation. Loyle Carner info was dropped shortly after the info for The 1975, I think?

Tbf it does sound like the noise for Biffy Clyro and Paramore has now been dialled back. Maybe new names will surface in the dueness of course.
