If they don't like Sweet Leaf then you clearly work with the soulless and the damned

if i had a leaf stuck under my windscreen when i pulled away from home, i would have to stop and remove it before i got to the end of the road.

stupid leaf. stupid song.

So just to clarify, are you soulless or damned?

Been caught using the n-word a few years ago. Has also got form for crying reverse racism when black people have legitimate criticism of him.

2020 sounds of the City lineup announced, usually shares some names with Glasto.

cant remember in full but Foals, DMAs, Kaiser Chiefs, Paul Heaton & Jacqui Abbot, Lewis Capaldi all playing nights 

[Deaf Nobby Burton]

If I get my own way:

Kendrick 98%
Macca 40%
Tay Tay 15%
 

If I end up relenting as always and doing what my friends want Instead:

Kendrick 2.7%
Macca 100%
Tay Tay 100%

Anyone else just think Taylor Swift is shitty unimaginative pop music and whilst it fits the festival following on from Beyonce/gags/katy Perry etc it is ultimately a bag of shite

Pretty much yeah. But I’d still prefer to listen to her rather than Kendrick.

It isn't my music taste but she isn't shit. She won the artist of the decade award which must stand for something, does have hits that you cannot avoid (radio, on playlists all around) and a strong female headliner which Glastonbury have hardly had apart from a few occasions. She is a headliner in her own right and alongside Kendrick and Macca, theirs something for (mainly) anyone. I will definitely be seeing Macca and Kendrick, probably go elsewhere for Taylor, tho drunk I may go for a singsong.

I don't think she's purely shit but booking those both in the same year is mind boggling.....you are shutting a shit load of interests out there even if it is only one stage. Kendrick I don't have a negative view on but he's going to be very much love or not bothered and the other pop star sells double tickets due to parents....this isn't her own shows where they can just go online and purchase two for herself and daughter or whatever and that's why I don't think the arguement of their status in music in necessarily a great point in these circumstances.

Taylor for glasto ? 

Is the front of today's London metro, but it's a nothing article , got me excited.

Who the fuck is getting shut out?

Real lads with real haircuts have a birthright to that stage you know. Poor little Jimmy Foal and the boys will be shut out without a second thought ?

[Andy0808 v5]

Leave Jimmy Foal out of this, taking this shit too far now.

[CaledonianGonzo]

Macca is the OG real lad with proper music for the lads. If people aren't happy with him then I'm not sure how Foals and their negative banger tally would improve matters 

[dotdash79]

Won’t someone think of the indie bands and the fanboys?

Gazza was hoping Simple Plan would top the bill.

That may win the award for nonsense post of the week dude.

There are three headliner spots and, ooooh, thousands of acts available in the music world. Interests are always going to be shut out. The point might, MIGHT, be valid if you had two hugely similar acts on two nights, but they're not.

[jparx]

Glastonbury Festival of Contemporary Performing Arts booking two of the most important and critically acclaimed contemporary acts of the decade is literally the least mind boggling thing I've ever seen. 

And there's hardly going to be a dearth of proper lad music elsewhere at the festival.

I’m not entirely sure how booking the biggest hip hop star in the world, the biggest pop star in the world and a motherfucking Beatle is shutting down anyone’s interests.

Seems a perfectly balanced mix to me.

Macca Kendrick and Taylor all in one year is absolutely massive. 

Are all 3 headliners ever any single person in the world's top 3 choices? Unlikely. 

I'll be at the pyramid all 3 nights so looks like it's my year boys! Hold onto your gym socks I'm sure they'll be some white guys with guitars there next year.
