Tbh if it wasn't for the handful I want on Saturday and Sunday I'd probably not bother with all the pressure for this resale, baring in mind I'm solo and just meeting my mate when he's not working. Obvs personal tastes but I have one act I'd give a go Friday I reckon and it's now a major thing to miss it. The Raconteurs Saturday is good though and I can see it due to Jack's love for the fest.

So with the no Rock slot this year it appears it’s:

Stormzy, George Ezra, Ms Lauren Hill, Bastille

[chazwwe]

Its slowly looking like I wont be seeing anyone on the Pyramid stage after 6-7pm which I think I'm really okay with. will be a first.

I'm taking it, I got blasted for suggesting that there would be no rock and and Bastille would play 4th down instead of 5th with LH 3rd. In all seriousness though did anyone really think she would take 4th down?, she's an expensive arena act.

Well considering EE mentioned the Rock slot and the comments by Bastille... yeah they did.  But hey, been confirmed the Rock slot isn’t happening so hey, everyone gets bumped up.

Top 4 sorted for Friday 

Top 3 sorted for Saturday

Still a couple to add Sunday (maybe just 1)

Imagine Hopkins into Orbital is just a hunch? 

[priest17]

Gambino playing Austin City Limits in October so he's seemingly not done yet, #GambinoFridaySub is still on.

 

(you can reply with facts explaining why it won't happen, I will gleefully ignore you).

Neil has had info on Ezra subbing Pyramid this year on the Friday.

Don't worry @priest17 I would want to ignore that as well

I'm willing to forgive him for being wrong on this occasion.

somewhere for his tourdates it says Friday. For Friday I can't really see where he'd be apart from subbing the Pyramid.

However, there's that thing going around that says the Friday is Stormzy, Lauryn Hill, and Bastille ... which would mean Ezra was somewhere else, perhaps on another day.

It's just occurred to me that we've not worked out who Sunday headliner is for Other. Whoever it is, it's going to be a younger act to contrast with The Cure. Ezra?

Kinda feels too perfect (in the eyes of the festival) for that Pyramid slot though doesn't he? He played the Other last festival, he's had a huge surge of mainstream popularity and he's headlining other mid sized and even major festivals so it's hard to imagine him anywhere other than the Pyramid. These things combined with your info makes me think it's surely still gonna be him subbing Stormzy. Where were these tour dates? That could put it to bed.

Tbf, we also don’t know who is the sub on Sunday. 

But.... I thought there was info sent to you saying Ezra was the sub Friday.  Was it from @adequate8

[zeppelin]

It's looking increasingly likely that I won't have a nailed on Sunday headliner ?

Although that's never a bad thing. 

[jparx]

Can't see George Ezra anywhere other than subbing the Pyramid, personally. I see the logic of putting a younger sub against The Cure, but Ezra has exploded over the past year and subbing the Pyramid is the biggest slot he could get, and what his camp would be after IMO.

I personally think the Sunday Other headliner is TBC.

yep, tho it's not impossible that some stuff has been swapped around to fill the gap left by the Prodigy.

[mufcok]

This has probably been mentioned already but are we now assuming Noel Gallagher is playing 2020 rather than this year?

?

[mb23]

Have we got a Sunday sub lined up from what's already been announced, or do we think it will be someone yet to be announced?
