Heavily predicting Oasis and Fred for Glastonbury 2027 after what Noel recently said.

 

Glastonbury making sure they are available for 2027, I'd have said it would be pretty obvious that Oasis will tour in 2026 still cashing in various places and had Glastonbury has any idea that 2026 would be possible there I'd no way they would do the fallow.

 

Fred, Sabrina, Oasis would be my guess.

 

Sam Fender, Little Simz, Foo Fighters 28

What did Noel say?

There is of course the option of forfeiting £75 during a cost of living crisis

thought you got 50 quid back? so it's 25 quid outlay if you hate the lineup that much and give up your tix

 

 

 

 

Changed to 75 quid in recognition of the 1975 playing.

Must’ve missed the info of Hozier subbing Other, when did that pop up?

 

No Jamie T, I was comparing that Hozier and Jamie T did the same venue. Hozier did cover a couple of different venues though which likely takes him upto that next level Reading have given.

He mentioned about the tour won't have any fall outs or rubbish, it's a last hurrah for the band so they aren't going to stay around for ages. They'll hit everywhere that has interest but I don't see them disappearing at all for a year and coming back. I think they'll be both retire at the end of it too as there won't be huge interest in either of them when people have seen them as a band again. This isn't going long than 3 years in my opinion. They all definitely be doing Etihad dates at some point but any announcement of them without Glastonbury selling out and a Glastonbury hole would be mad.

The flags at the Will Smith set would be epic, imagine the trolling possibilities from punters.


 

same would be said about Grohl. But we can forgive fornication out of wedlock much easier than a slap to the face it seems. I wonder why that is....

Zzzzz, f**k Chappell Roan. Will gladly skip her in favor of something different. As if crowd size means something about quality. Y'all remember Shania Twain's lameass set this year right? And screw this notion that everybody should be seeing her just because her fanbase is hyping her up. What's with all this glazing? Watch five years go by and people looking back at her as just some fad.

 

 

 

 

Chappell playing the Legends slot now? If Chappell was british it would be the glazing of the century cause american artists cant seem to do sh*t. Meanwhile the chance of having Olivia, Sabrina and Chappell all in one weekend is pretty good  and would please lots of people. But hey, lets just takes these artists out of the lineup and see how it looks when you got the f**king Script taking a prime slot up cause its all they could muster. Right now theyre getting the victory lap out of all these names instead of at their literal fever pitch peak by a matter of months. They should be so fortunate. Imagine if this had  went down next year along with 2026 as  a fallow year  and these acts wouldnt even be on the table cause they prob take 27 off so then its 28 at the earliest? Thats 3 years lost right there. I will crack up if they end up having Chappell against some less than stellar counter programming and itll be seen as a rigging just to get some pretty drone shots by the bbc.

Wonder if the first poster might come early Jan after Emily's comments on the podcast last year, assuming they have most of the lineup locked in at this point

 

(Purely hopeful thinking).

We thought this this year and then the poster came at more or less exactly the same period it comes every year. Don’t think there’s ever much chance of it coming months in advance of that usual window.

I don't understand why they wait until March to release the poster when every other major festival announces months earlier. I doubt very much that they are less organised and still trying to lock in the names on the poster so why hold it for so long? I understand the full lineup with times being later but I'd be shocked if they don't already have locks on the poster acts. What's the rationale for not releasing it earlier?

Allowing acts who have tours to sell their tickets. Particularly important for Glasto when they pay peanuts.

Ah yes, never thought about that, but do wonder how much of an impact that would have? Probably not so much for the headline acts but maybe for the acts lower on the bill.

Because they can!

 

At a guess one of the trade-offs for paying artists much less than the market rate is that contracts are more flexible. Every year there appear to be changes to the lineup until the spring. It’s hard to know for sure because they keep it confidential. 
Fred was heavily rumoured early this year but has now cut back drastically on his plans for next year and is now not playing. This could lead to changes quite late on

    • This is a fair point, given the amount the line up is torn apart after release, with the positions all torn apart and criticised - i guess an accurate stage predictions must have acts in positions that feel obviously wrong.
