Bravo, this made me laugh out loud 🙂  Still can't believe the Foals headlining the Pyramid chat.  Was madness.

This been posted anywhere? Paul’s ‘big surprise’? 

 

sorry for mentioning supergroups...

[Tommy101]

If they're good enough for the likes of James Corden...

Saw an article headline earlier: "is Yungblud really edgy, or just Robbie Williams with a whacky haircut?'

He is like this generation's Billy Idol, but without the sense of humour. He's a cosplay pop star. I hate everything about the whole package.

Pretty sure that Brian May said the other day he thinks they'll never play Glastonbury after clashing with Michael Eavis over badger culling.

I know this is a super old quote but there has been some relevant news today buried under all the corona stuff plus it will be good to see this topic back on the front page again to take the conversation away from that corona thing. 
 

Anyway the news is that the government have finally decided that vaccinations are better than culling badgers when it comes to tackling bovine TB. 
 

Perhaps this could be a stepping stone towards reconciliation between May and Eavis and there’s a chance that we could finally see Queen on the pyramid one day.

So, what's the latest? Is everyone still thinking Kendrick? If so, why hasn't it been announced yet?

I feel like they might be saving him for the poster drop, which I'm hoping is next week.

Because he has dates to sell/they don't want to announce him yet

Kenny will be announced on the poster within the next couple of weeks. He's either been embargoed or they've just decided to leave him for the full lineup.

So if the festival goes ahead but they ban over 70s, we're going to need a new headliner and Legend. Who else is available?

Would imagine Biffy are creeping up the list of potentials as well.

Good question 😀

[Gnomicide]

Hang on.... Michael won't be allowed to go. 

[TiZuff]

Lady gaga ... nobody even think there is a slight chance ? New album ? That comment she made in 2018?? Female , an icon ?

let's face it, from what's happened in the past with headliner cancellations they can stick just about anyone in those slots without uproar. If it's outside of their control people will accept what they're able to arrange instead.

When asking this question always remember the Travis-ty.

Never forget.

As @jparx says, still Kendrick. Perhaps Emily doesn’t fancy the usual threats and menaces from the gammon brigade, and thinks announcing him on a poster with the likes of Blossoms also on there is a safer option.

Mumford and sons

And Coldplay as legend spot.

It’s fairly common these not to have all three by now. I don’t think there’s anything particularly sinister going on.

I would assume Noel gets bumped up from subbing Macca to headlining. Which would go down a jobby in the punch bowl on here, but would be the simplest option for the festival.
