I just find it funny that other users can be like “Emily is a fan she deffo wants to book him” and they don’t get fact checked. It’s almost as if other users are allowed to be excited yet everything I say is somehow actionable and I have to make sure it stands up in court?

Come on now, fella - no need to take this to heart. Statements claiming things absolutely are bound to get a bit of pushback, but I don't think any of it is personal. Sometimes you post quite a lot of them so that's probably why it seems you get more than your fair share of challenges back. This is all part of the long build up - coming up with a theory and tossing up the likelihood with others

This thread is like a soap. I bloody loves it.

I think it just seems like a bit of a mix up with what Matt meant and how TheMartiniPolice took it we're all friends here!

I would however like to say a big fuck you to Matt, for forcing my brain to go into overdrive merely from seeing Emily post about Kendrick herself. Now my brain has translated it into KENDRICK IS GOING TO HEADLINE, and now everybody in my Glasto WhatsApp group has to hear all about it too. We've only just gotten over our group's argument over whether Foals are bigger than Stormzy. Ludicrous. ?

This is a @Matt42 appreciation post

[thrillhouse188]

Despite the anti Foals propaganda I have to agree, if she's seen Kendrick live and posted on ig about it she's clearly a fan, not too much of a stretch to say they'd like to book him at least

[Matt42]

The same logic applies to emily liking yannis’s recent posts lol before anyone suggests.

[lukethekid]

Please be King Kendrick ??

Have daft punk been ruled out yet?

For my tuppence worth I believe Matt to be a scoundrel, a cad and even a bounder. And come the R&F meet I shall demand satisfaction. Good day, sir.

I SAID GOOD DAY, SIR.

[vardyvarvar]

@Skoo they’ve never been ruled in tbh. They would be my number 1 dream headliner. Nothing to suggest it will happen apart from the dreams of this forum.

Did you go that year where the media whipped up a rumour that they were playing Arcadia? Can’t remember which year it was but I met a lot of people that weekend who believed it.

Nobody was saying it was a stretch.

I said that all we know is that she went to his show, and that’s true. I only mentioned it because it was being misrepresented as documented evidence that Glastonbury are actively trying to book Kendrick Lamar. That’s all, no attacks, just a reminder.

They were playing in the gym earlier while I was thinking about Glasto. I think it's a sign.

Too late for backtracking mate, only way to settle it is a scrap at the Pyramid.. maybe this could be to elusive Thursday headline act?

I'm a firm believer that all disputes should be settled on the bubble football pitch in the T&C Fields on the Wednesday.

You people do realise that as the effective head of Glastonbury Festival, and one of the most influential women in the music industry, Emily Eavis probably goes to quite a few gigs, right?

My point was that there is a direct correlation between acts Emily promotes on her instagram and acts that are either booked / eventually end up at the fest. It’s almost like it’s her own way of dropping a hint or testing the water to see how the act would go down.

Look at the comments for her post about Kendrick. Full of people begging her to get him on the farm.

I think with the way she worded the caption to show her excitement she’s definitely been after him for a while.

She also follows him on Instagram.

Ah yeah, forgot about this, cheers. FWIW I think this is noteworthy for the reasons Matt outlines above but it's not going on record saying 'we want them' like they've said about Madonna, Fleetwood Mac, et cetera. Don't think this conversation really needed to be as long as it was

[jackmerton]

As somebody who is actively seeking any excuse to hide away from writing my thesis, I think this conversation wasn't long enough! Maybe us Kendrick fans should just start a Kendrick thread ?
