Joey Peeps Posted March 7 Report Share Posted March 7 Feel like this deserves its own thread. Rumours/conjecture so far... Pulp (likely to be playing so subbing, secret set or headlining Other) Doja Cat (Very feasible you would think, or top of the Other) LCD Soundsystem (would be a quirky choice but perhaps no more so than Nick Cave, Beck etc) Stevie Nicks (if not the legend, which seems likely, surely she'll be no lower than sub) Raye (Emily apparently mentioned her a lot today at Oxford). Any more? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sisco Posted March 7 Report Share Posted March 7 Janelle Monae, Burna Boy and Dave (that’s not my guess just 3 who could do it too) My actual guess would be: Friday - LCD Saturday - Pulp Sunday - Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andre91 Posted March 7 Report Share Posted March 7 Raye, Pulp & Dave is my anything but educated guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye I've been told by my friend's brother who's playing in the band that they're due to sub Other on Sat. Separate note, not Pyramid sub but I wonder if Glasto might book Asake this year, playing Wireless festival in July. Would love that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Little Thief Posted March 7 Report Share Posted March 7 LCD defo subbing on the Friday. Will be interesting to see how they go down in that slot on that stage. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guessing it's a shoehorn situation, either due to the Other headliners already being filled or they didn't want to repeat the slot. Interested to see how it plays out.

Acid_Haze Posted March 7 Report Share Posted March 7 Unfortunately I think Sam Smith is worth mentioning as a potential sub. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flashbacks to Beck subbing Coldplay in 2016. Bet the vibe might be a bit similar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mttJ Posted March 7 Report Share Posted March 7 For all the SZA size talk, LCD as a sub-headliner is a legitimately crazy booking in my eyes. Hope it’s backed up with something strong like Dave as one of the others, but f**king hell we’re gonna need a few churnups. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crumbler Posted March 7 Report Share Posted March 7 I'm a fan of LCD but that's probably the last place I would've put them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NorthernSoul52 Posted March 7 Report Share Posted March 7 Dave is bigger than SZA to me as a UK draw. Frankly bonkers if he subs that they didn't simply give him the leg-up after Madonna and Stevie Wonder dropped out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's not like a Foos National vibe. LCD and Coldplay last time was talked about as one of the worst clashes of all time. Surely them being aligned next to each other makes complete sense. I'd be there for both with bells on... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only two dates at the O2 on his most recent UK tour compared to SZA's four. She only did London, Scotland and Manchester though whereas his tour was extensive though so it's difficult to say.

They are a niche booking and probably better suited headlining a stage smaller. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw Sam Smith in the summer and they're actually great. Ignore all the antics you see on tiktok and look at the setlist and its solid and a party. They only took their kit off at the end for "unholy". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
