I was thinking more of Taylor swift, madonna etc... Artists who are solo and have other shows.

Fuck maybe that's where the Taylor swift rumour is from... She's one of the members?

I'm officially shutting up now.

Well Swift's show is sold out.

And even still I doubt anyone's passing on seeing an artist because they're playing a part in some collaboration, which could see them performing one song.

Let’s do a wee hypothetical bit of thinking into how this potentially could have come about;

  • Michael & Emily are good friends with Chris Martin
  • Between the three of them (not sure of who instigated the discussion) the begin talking about doing something different at Glasto 2015
  • Chris Martin gets involved with Global Citizen
  • M&E ask CM to work with them to secure two acts for the Sunday (having already booked the Foo’s and Kanye)
  • Martin goes to work on his showbiz pals, trying to tie down two acts, with the double selling point of headlining the Pyramid/doing a lot of good work for charidee.
  • Two acts are signed – due to other commitments/exclusivity they’re not able to announce them until June
  • Rumours circulate about Coldplay headlining simply down to CM’s level of involvement with the booking
  • Emily dispels those rumours while never stating CM wasn’t involved
  • ME reveals more at the Q&A
  • eFestivals Headliners thread goes into meta-meltdown

If we were to believe the above it doesn’t change THAT much about what we knew before last night’s Q&A. Many of the restrictions about who can play and who can’t remain, the only new wildcard is CM’s influence. Thoughts?
