Being right in the pit was the worst place to be for Beck. That's where my mate was and he said he felt like he was the only one who was interested in Beck. Everyone else was just there for Coldplay. Whereas I was further back and had a great crowd around me (we both then went to the Other for LCD)

I was kind of halfway in for Beck and almost felt embarrassed for knowing who he was as I was surrounded by people clearly not at all arsed. 

Probably taking a massive gamble getting in to the thick of it for LCD, but given they’re likely to be one of the acts I’m most stoked for all weekend it only seems right. Hopefully luck out and find some similarly minded people there and not just a bunch of talking Coldplay fans.

LCD will smash it regardless of crowd size, as they did at T in the Park during its death throes phase. 

Really not a vibe or look that the UK's premier festival should be seeking to emulate.

Are the same people moaning about LCD and PJ Harvey headlining the field on the basis of crowd size the same people saying SZA crowd size doesn't matter and she scores really high critically? 

That Friday is shaping to be an excellent night of music for those who want to be there. 

PJ Harvey - genius

LCD - awesome

Coldplay - you know will put on the best live spectacle of the weekend and will probably have the biggest crowd

I may be at all three, or none, depending on options, but that's a pretty good top 3. 

If it is a run of pj harvey, lcd,  Coldplay on the pyramid I will be so f**king happy. 

I don't care about whether other people think those acts are too small or in the wrong stage I will be having the time of my life. 

If people around me aren't digging it I'll just move to get a better atmos.

In fact, I don't think I've ever done a 3 act run at the pyramid on a Friday. Last time was a Sunday for elbow/Lorde/ kendrick and it was amazing.

As a non ticket holder I'm glad I've got APE/Gunnersbury park tickets if this is indeed the case!

Yeah it would certainly seem an outlier. @Little Thief did your source specifically say Pyramid Stage?

 

Yeah Pyramid stage. Got some interesting info around Park and Woodsies too, but guess that’s for another thread!

Anything different from what’s listed already on the rumours page ?

Not feeling good about Pulp - if they get announced i'll be over the moon tho

[NorthernSoul52]

Let us will Pulp into existence.

Quite a bit of overlap to be fair, must be similar sources.

West Holts headliners were reconfirmed (three Js), also Squid high up on West Holts on the Fri.

Park I THINK Fontaines headlining or subbing. Hoping this isn’t true, but sounds like The Smile may not be doing it. I had them nailed for headlining Park but apparently not happening. We’ll see though.

Woodsies Sat headliner is Gossip, Sleaford subbing and Yard Act before them.

[FakeEmpire]

I want to be in the pit for LCD but am already stressed at the thought of trying to get out of it after they have finished. I find that for bands like Coldplay, people just start pouring in when the sub finishes without giving you a chance to get out. 

Getting out of The National before Foo Fighters was not pleasant.

Gossip headlining Woodsies is weak as piss - thought they’d be subbing at best or possibly lower. Not doing much to shake the Glastobudget shouts.

Was kind of expecting The Smile to skip it so that’s not too surprising.

[CantWaitForGlasto22]

Thanks @Little Thief! Tempted to catch Gossip this time as made the mistake in 2007 of watching The Who instead of catching Gossip on Woodsies. Always said we made wrong choice that night! Depends who our Sat night Pyramid headliner is this time though …. 

[FakeEmpire]

Yeah, Gossip are a band I loved at the time and never actually managed to see so I'd be happy with them as a headliner too. Unless Anohni is on Park then I'll be at that.

[CaledonianGonzo]

Any evidence that Gossip's comeback is something anyone cares about?

No, it seems to be dying on its arse much like their other comeback a couple of years ago that everybody’s already forgotten happened.

Yard act followed by sleaford mods is where I'll be at.

I mean, to all intents and purposes they're a one hit wonder. It's like Peter, Bjorn and John suddenly topping line-ups.

The Smile not playing?? nOOO

Thought that The Smile were nailed on, be a shame if not.

They seem to have a weirdly dedicated fanbase in some circles tbh - the type who crave for the days of 2007 NME - but yeah, topping Woodsies is… not great.

At least that’s one more reason for me to be at Dua.

[CaledonianGonzo]

Maybe The Klaxons are headlining the Friday.
