Videos look pretty cool - load of peeps who obviously aren't their normal fans going ham to it. What's more, the roof collapsed during Break Stuff.

That's what I'd see, however, a lot of that won't happen. 

Gladys Knights has no space, Hozier 3rd down Other for me...maybe sub. I'd be shocked if Glasvegas are anywhere near that spot. I love YYY's but I don't see above 3rd Other, Post Malone I doubt would be as low as 4th Other, he could sub it.

TWOD I just don't see being sub, but then I didn't see it with Beck either, Ben Howard a bit low and that 3 way clash on Saturday is just harsh but I think it'd be Janelle. Paul Heaton and Jacqui would be nice but it's not a lot different from the last time.

[StupidDream]

Have seen Ben Howard on his recent tour following the new album, and putting him in broad daylight would be a terrible mistake. Especially on a big field. It's an intense and mesmerizing show, might be hard to bring to a festival. You should totally forget songs like 'Keep your head up'.

They played a really short set before the roof collapsed (but apparently only had one song left anyway). It was ALOT of covers too - they were decent enough but room for improvement.

Mastodon on the Park *drools*.

They were and everyone seemed to be having a great time, but yeh, there were a lot of covers. They said at the beginning they were going to do a "party Limp Bizkit" set. My take on that would be that they didn't know how well a lot of their tracks would go down/be recognised by what was percieved to be an EDM music loving crowd. A lot of the rock/punk bands seemed to be a bit confused about that....particularly The Dead Kennedys who basically started having a go at the audience about their taste in music (very weird....he threatened to walk off stage at one point. But maybe he's always antagonistic like that??).

But I think Limp Bizkit at Glastonbury would be different....no need for the covers. I'd go see them again for sure  Which has absolutely nothing to do with the rather inexplicable school girl crush I used to have on Fred Durst....

I did actually have Chemical Brothers there instead of Tame Impala until the last second when I realised I’d have to take a nappy to the fest unless I had an alternative that night.

God, some of the clashes on there.

[Supermerv]

Lot of people putting the Streets headlining the Other stage, I think they'd struggle with anything bigger than JP. Original Pirate Material is a bona fide classic and A Grand Don't Come for Free is pretty good, but it doesn't make much sense if it's not played in order. Other than those two, their back catalogue is patchy at best, plus the fact I don't really think they're that relevant any more.

 

I'd watch them wherever they played though!

I believe there was info that placed them as either a Pyramid sub or a Other headliner, so most have assumed Other headliner. I was also skeptical of them being big enough for such a slot, but both of their reunion tours have sold and been received very well, so they're probably up to it. Not gonna fill out the field but doubt it'd be an embarrassingly small crowd either.

Tbf Rudimental weren't really Other headliners when they did it

Kind of got that gig due to their previous years Pyramid set being cut in half due to the storm I thought.

Yeah naturally and not being able to finish the set either, personally I thought what they did on the Pyramid that year it was too big for them....nowhere close to as much presence as I was hoping for and then headlining meant I needed to cut my headliner choices.

Having seen them on the last tour, I’ll tell you that those songs absolutely work in any order. They’re a much bigger and better live act this time around. 

You could also argue that the two new songs they played got just a big a reaction as the older stuff. 

Plus they headlined JP last time and the hype is much bigger now they are back. 

 

They could headline other or sub pyramid easy.
