To the 1975 haters in here who obviously have no taste in great music. Listen up. Matty Healy and his band are going to blow away this festival in front of 120k gob smacked punters. They are without q

Eminem anyone? 

 

I suspect he will have laughed in their faces at the offer, given it was well into seven figures the last time he did Reading.

 

I know the offer was made. I'd be amazed if it actually happened.

@mufcok on that note, anymore news/intel you can give with who you think/heard the third headliner might be then? If you say ‘you’d be amazed if it actually happened’, surely Eminem is out?

The bit about me being amazed is purely personal opinion, knowing what he's been paid at other UK festivals. Strikes me as a similar sort of situation to Madonna - festival keen, but priced out. The only bit I know for sure is the offer part, rest is purely opinion.

 

To answer your question in a couple of ways:

 

I'd say two are up in the air. Fred Again (unless I've missed something) seems to be purely speculation without substance right now. And I include myself in that. I've been saying I think he'll headline since I left Worthy Farm in June but I've not heard a thing. Just personal opinion.

 

I've had two bits of information (separate to Rodrigo), neither of which involve Fred. If/when I'm confident enough - I'll share. Right now, I want more on them before I put my neck on the line.

Can I just clarify slightly - is that two bits of information about a single act, or about two separate acts?

Separate. I trust one slightly more than the other, but neither can I hang my hat on just now.

 

What I would say is it suggests, apart from Rodrigo, things are very much at offer/negotiation stage for one, possibly two, slots.

Blink once if one of the acts is Sam Fender.

Purely from what the main bloke has said, I reckon Fred was a very early on who's pulled out due to album non reaction. Liv is likely and Fred is in negotiation after a very lose idea of Foos.

 

Sheeran, Olivia and Sam can't be ruled out. If you are getting to Sheeran again though just pop Biffy Clyro on there so they've done it. I know they won't but I don't think it would be badly received.

Who cares about him having a baby out of wedlock? As if every other artist on the bill lives up to a better standard of behavior.

 

Michael Eavis is a member of the Methodist church and has deep religious beliefs. These have probably been passed down to his children.

THink the Rolling Stones have a fair few out of wedlock kids between them. this will not be an issue. 

 

One of them has even slept with a few minors

      Personally if it was me now, I would be grabbing a green camping ticket with the knowledge closer when I've refreshed that I can still choose general if I want to....you can't do the opposite!    I would say if you are happy to watch your headliners and big bands further back to be able to see who you actually plan to later then yes it is fine. Its a much difference experience to any other festival especially food wise and camping surrounds.    Once you're in the arena as well you're not going back unless you've got a gap. If I go again I'll be going with the option of not trying to push the front and enjoying further back as you actually put too much pressure on it than the time take away can forget to enjoy other acts.

      On the whole then,yay or nay...I've had a look on festivals united and there's people who seem converted by Rock Im Park, I can imagine it might be different if it was a washout as RaR is tarmac.   The hotel side would be more to convince the non campers if it's an option. On my first visit to rock am ring we were shuttled into the area where you could stick the car next to the tent which was fantastic as it meant zero lugging of camping gear.

      An interesting thing this. Having seem them several times (some of their gigs veer into back catalogue niche territoty), I partly agree they arent Pyramid material (theough modern defeinition of 'bangers' although I could see them headlinging the Other stage) I can't think of another festival in the world that they couldn't headline - Reading, IoW, BST, Rock Wercheter, Roskilde, etc etc.
