So whos left that is available ? @incident did you have a list at one point ? 

 

That was a legends slot thing, and drove me crazy trying to compile it.

 

Would imagine headliners would be even worse..

Can't be arsed to check the timing of what was known when, but someone else could try to work it out.

I looked at the history and thought there, 'Did they not confirm the headliners for last year before they were announced?'

Then I remembered how absolutely obvious the headliners were for a while before announcement.

 

They absolutely were not. At least, not for the Sunday night.

 

The headliners were announced on 14th March 2024. We thought Stevie Wonder was headlining up until approx 2 weeks before that, and it was another few days before SZA came firmly into the picture.

I will never understand the rush some people seem to get, for trying wind up about 20 people at most. 

Just had this on Facebook. I didn’t join a group called ‘Glastonbury 2025’ so it’s some old group that’s changed its name and knocked up a fake poster!

 

whats the point? For 5 likes 😂

A week before it was announced and was already known. You also mentioned green day and KoL

Biffy, Eminem and The Prodigy would be great as headliners

Yeah, for approx 10 days or so with confidence gradually increasing over that period.

Rumor is for San Siro Milan.....

People get their kicks on social media wherever they can I guess.

 

Long as we don't get a rerun of that weird poster with all the names on in a circle for the abandoned 2020(?) festival.

@mufcok who do YOU think of what @setboppoys has claimed today…? 👀😉

And Stevie Wonder for 2024. There is a pattern 

[Avalon_Fields]

Someone, sometime, will call it right….

 

Stevie Wonder I’m trying not to believe.

To be honest until it's announced you don't actually know anything unless the the direct information is right literally infront of you as even the msor rwliable get it wrong occasionally. It wouldn't be that unfathomable for Stevie to be back in.

Fortunately this has no chance of happening. Worst overall set of headliners they could book. Olivia also can't do Friday by all counts.  Cave had about 200 people watch him before Mumford haha 

 

the thing is I think somebody might have their BST dates crossed. Sabrina that Friday, O Rod the following weekend in between Noah and Hugh Jackman.

The funny thing with all this is that 'The Post' is still no less reliable than anything else in terms of the acts mentioned. Someone has said about Stevie Wonder and that post basically says that if Rihanna couldn't be agreed then Stevie would be a next option along. 

[CaledonianGonzo]

If Sabrina is doing BST then that arguably also puts her in the frame for the G.

Which am I looking at, Stevie Wonder?

 

Apologies I've been away for a few days and not really kept up on here

Yeah

[NorthernSoul52]

Carpenter at BST feels one of those obvious things without any official word. 

[mufcok]

So yes, Stevie Wonder was one of the names I was told. HOWEVER - there was reason to doubt it, and I've still had nothing since to suggest I should be confident, I guess given someone else has come on dangling that specific carrot, though - there's no harm in me mentioning I also heard that.

 

If it is right, I have reason to believe it will be the Sunday. Again though, there seems to be enough doubt around the remaining two at the moment to not get overly excited/confident.

 

On the other name, separate to Stevie, that one I'd be more confident of getting concrete info on and pre-Christmas. It's easier to do digging on and I will, when the timing is right (there's a danger of pissing people off if I go in all guns blazing).

The story behind these posters is this; Over on the discord, they have a stage predictions thread, much like the one on here. One of the users creates a poster from his guesses, just a bit of fun and to be fair, it makes it more interesting than just a list of names. At no point does he say they are a leaked line-up. 

 

These posters often make their way into the wider world via Reddit or one of the Facebook groups, with someone then making out it's a leak. So what has started out as a bit of fun, ends up being something people either believe, or get angry about.
