Plenty of other stages though and will be less clashes. A friend just messaged to say SZA underwhelmed them and they couldn't understand why it wasn't Doja Cat. Blow-for-blow, Doja Cat is probably smaller here than SZA, no? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Be glad Coldplay is even on it or else there is not "big" act on it. edit: above comment with Raye. If she is hyping her up she is either a Pyramid sub or an Other headliner I think. Emily might be going for all female Pyramid subs too. Couldn’t you wait any longer to get that off your chest? Only a few more days until line up is released… you could have made your post more sarcastic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthernSoul52 Posted March 7 Report Share Posted March 7 If we've got three female subs big enough, then why not. Let's 'ave 'em, I say! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems that there’s genuine reason and demand for this SZA lady to headline but I don’t see any difference in Doja since 2022 other stage booking.

She can top opposite Coldplay for me on the Other. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

clarkete Posted March 7 Report Share Posted March 7 38 minutes ago, gooner1990 said: she talked about 1. How she got into running the festival, spoke about wanting to become a teacher and dropping out of Goldsmiths to care for her mother. 2. Having one female agent she looked up to as inspiration for another woman in a similar position. 3. Stepping into her fathers shoes and doing things her own way. 4. More provisions for females to feel safe at this years festival - such as female 'chill out' areas and how they're always looking for ways to improve things. 5. Spoke about sometimes not feeling safe late night on the tube as a lone female. 6. Spoke about going to Madonna recently (tied in with point 5) 7. Trying to get an equal gender balance with line-ups but it sometimes difficult as the pool to choose from is male dominated. 8. Confirmed two headliners are female but wouldn't reveal who. 9. Glastonbury 2024 line up will be out 'next week' 10. Championed Raye (a lot) 11. Spoke about Billie Eilish playing at the festival and how she was looking out for the welfare of female fans at the festival. Perhaps @Harmonic Prospectorcan remember more? It was about 1 1/2 hrs long, but there was an introduction from the organiser, opening talk from the vice-chancellor of the university, then three other panellists talking in equal measure so wasn't just all about EE and Glastonbury. It was my question that got asked about the line up it was: 'Given you wish to have an equal gender balance in the line up, will there be any female headliners this year, and when is the line-up due out?' Wanted to get a photo with her afterwards but I had to rush back to work and she was doing press stuff with the official photographer and other panellists. Fantastic job, definitely owe you another upvote 😊 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NorthernSoul52 Posted March 7 Report Share Posted March 7 We should bill the headliner as SZA, and then it turns out it's all a ruse to get us down the front for Tracy Chapman instead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stevie Nicks feels nailed on, I thought? Or had we just assumed it was gospel that the female legend would be her over Shania Twain? But yes. Chapman would slay a mid-afternoon Pyramid slot. One of those where, a few years ago, you might have gotten away with a smaller stage, but the resurgence for Fast Car has thrust her back under the limelight. (And rightfully so!)

Chip Batch Posted March 7 Report Share Posted March 7 I’m well out of touch with some of the stuff here. I’ve never even heard of Raye or Ice Spice. I’ve heard of the others but couldn’t name a song by SZA, Dua Lipa, Doja Cat or Olivia Rodrigo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
