Headliners 2015

[Purple aki squat]

Every time I hear something from the latest alt-j album, my ears prick up (in a good way!)

I imagine they'll be there, somewhere or other

I'm struggling with them, can't fathom out what they are meant to be. Some of the vocals are really strange. Are any of them American or is it some Yorkshire accent I've never encountered?

[Slugworth]

I put the album on and turned it off about 3mins later.

that's five hours longer than i gave it

[Gnomicide]

It's time Bowie stopped arsing about and gave what we all truly desire.

Tin Machine for the Pyramid!

[Icewulf]

After listening to it you went back in time?

[Comfy Bean]

And she looks like Woody Harrelson in a ginger wig

Not a 'proper' ginger.

Gingers have no souls.

I believe in Justice for Gingers ( my brother is one ) and due to global warming they are a dying breed ( true story ) so I think Florence and her machine will get their day in the sun.....hopefully not too much sun.

I`m still going Foo Fighters, Stone Roses, Ginger.

My theory behind the Roses is that they have shown they can keep a big secret so based on the fact that it all seems to be quiet on the headline front, plus pure guess work, I think they will play Saturday and debut a few new tunes.

Anywayz, if Flo does turn up then I will be somewhere else. I would worry that she won`t be up to it and could be a wee bit out of her depth.......... " It always ends in tears with a ginger girl ".

for me as well..wasn't too into the first record but this one does it more for me.

big step up in the US, where they're headlining Madison Square Garden end of March. looking at those dates i chuckled as they go from what will obviously be a big event for them at MSG...to playing theatres next 2 nights in some of America's loveliest towns, Cleveland and Pittsburgh next 2 gigs. how do you get 'up' for those ones?

Thoughts are with your brother.

[JoBalls]

I think Florence will headline the Other Stage at best. I see her as at an equivalent bigness level (to use the scientific term...) as Ellie Goulding, and she was on Other last year.

[Comfy Bean]

I appreciate your kind words Slugworth and will pass on your best wishes. The scientists fear he will be exterminated. It`s a difficult time.

You are wrong.

Fancy putting your money where your mouth is? Your £10 to Water Aid if she headlines Other, mine if she headlines Pyramid?

Haven't you got that bet the wrong way round? Aren't you supposed to pay up if you're wrong?

Edit: Actually I think I've misinterpreted the way you've said it.

KEEP THE DREAM ALIVE

I've never stopped dreaming

The highest I can imagine Royal Blood is subbing Other and even then it's a stretch, unless they come up with new material.

I'm looking at it again and I can see what you mean haha. For the avoidance of doubt - I pay up if she does Other .

[DomDom1984]

Money's safe. Absolutely no way does Florence play the Other.

[Matt42]

If you bet florence will be on the other stage you're practically giving your money away.

[Mezhyp1]

Not even practically giving you're money away, blatantly and certainly giving you're money away, there's no way on earth she plays the other stage

[Guy Incognito]

Are we discounting the chance of The Prodigy of headlining the pyramid? Seeing as theres a lack of real headliners around this year I wouldnt be surprised if they did, or does their booking at iow make it unlikely?

[sjseabass]

Let's see if JoBalls takes up the offer then! At this rate we'll be getting people saying "I see her as the same sort of size act as Anna Calvi, so I could see Florence subbing the Park at best..."

Godspeed You! Black Emperor subbed by Florence and the Machine

[Icewulf]

Florence seen picking litter at the Pyramid stage.

[Winslow Leach]

Godspeed You! Black Emperor subbed by Florence and the Machine

Now get rid of Florence and the Machine. I'd take that.

[zahidf]

Kylie is playing Melt in germany a few weeks after Glasto: i think she is in with a shout...

[CaledonianGonzo]

Kylie as a Pyramid Sub seems likely and logical.

[FloorFiller]

Kylie subbing Elton John on the Sunday seems like something that would happen - or is that all a bit too camp? stick Royal Blood on before em as to not scare off the LADS
