Damon Albarn, rather than Thom Yorke?

Edit: just read back and a few others have suggested the same. Don't really see TY as a WH act. Would be pleased to be wrong though. 

Same kind of booking as James Blake really. Not your typical WH headliner but with the light show/electronics I can totally see it working.

Thom Yorke/Macca clash would be brutal. I think Thom on the Sunday against Swift makes the most sense

I think going against all three headliners 'makes sense', there's no overly obvious conflict of crowd interest, tbh, just personal preference at this stage innit.

We are still talking about West Holts here, right? 

I was. I guess it would be an odd booking although stranger things have happened.

I agree but maybe that's the plan, to split the crowd a bit?  I am still hoping for Thom Sunday on the Park 

Chuck a big, younger act on Other (1975) and they'll be fine imo.

I can’t see why that would split the McCartney crowd. The only crowd Thommy boy is going to split is his own; between the fans who like his solo stuff and the Radiohead fans who quickly and devastatingly realise they don’t.

Crowd isnt going to camp out for yorke all day and not see a beatle, plus miss the biggest sing along of the weekend. This isnt Atoms for Peace so the audience is going to have to be sure they wanna see his current show and not think they picked wrong. And yeah, against macca it seems not the best clash either if the goal was to split an audience up.

Crowded House for the 'wouldn't be out of place on a Sunday afternoon on the pyramid"????

Obviously Thom Yorke - imagine the singalongs on the Pyramid with his cheery fuckers.

[billum]

My reading is that Thom Yorke is the easy one, the "one has graced the pyramid a few times but not in this form" one

But "The other one is definitely the best, wouldn't be out of place on a Sunday afternoon on the pyramid" as a West Holts headliner sounds to me more of a Nile Rogers / Chic thing. He's played both slots already in recent years, of course - but it's a helluva party booking for the 50th all the same!

So guys, I just spoke to Ryan McMahon from inhaler and I said I knew the Glastonbury headliners - I then said it is (Kendrick for the Friday, Macca (confirmed) for the Saturday and Taylor swift for the Sunday. He then said yeah that’s right - the lineup for the festival is insane this year and then we had a chat for about an hour??

Cant see Chic returning so soon. It may well be a similar 70's band though. Isley brothers hopefully

Somebody said they knew the three West Holts headliners and gave some vague clues. Thom Yorke seems like a certainty - the others are still up in the air.

[Madyaker]

As Thom announces more dates the glasto shaped hole slowly becomes more obvious. Didn’t someone claim to have info about him headlining west holts a month or two ago? I think there’s a Thom Yorke thread somewhere.

Shame. Alestorm would have been great...The thought of people wandering around the site singing F**ked with an Anchor all week pleases me greatly

Disclosure are a Live UK Exclusive at Lovebox, so that excludes them from a live Glasto set.

It's confusing. It seems that, somewhat annoyingly, people have taken to discussing West Holts headliners in this thread when there's a whole West Holts thread.

Yeah... she wouldn't stand for that.

There would definitely be some Janet style editing going on like...

That’s what makes it an obvious fake. That and the absolute unnecessary act of producing loads of low quality printouts of something that’s strictly embargoed.
