So Taylor Swift, Kendrick Lamar, Pearl Jam.

Have two of the Glastonbury headliners played BST before?

Don't think the BST headliners have, but in 2009 Springsteen & Neil Young played both the same weekend. That was Hard Rock Calling, though.

Nonsensical reply.

Kendrick Lamar is a very good get.

 

But he needs a new album by then, and I'm guessing this confirms one prior to July

I don’t know who’s been ruled out but Ozzy is the first that comes to mind

(This can be taken with a pinch of salt but) "turn..." rather than "turns..." suggests the act is a band?

[DarthSaul]

I'd love a Kung Fu Kenny day to look something like

Kendrick Lamar
James Blake
Blood Orange
Sir
Duckwrth

So Barclaycards a gonner then

He's in America so we ruled him out

Would seem that way...

"American Express presents BST Hyde Park

And we’re back! BST Hyde Park returns in 2020, and we’re thrilled to be partnering with American Express."

 

Wonder if Neil Young would approve.

The occult bit refers to a song title.

Plural rather than singular, yes.

I guess an announcement today is looking unlikely now, right?

I'm pretty sure it's always been scheduled for next week, so yes, unlikely today.

Oh OK, I thought you had said earlier in the week you were expecting the announcement this week. My bad.

Ha. He’s probably forgotten about that gig already. 

[Suprefan]

Motley Crue, Def Leppard and Poison would seem to fit the bill for the occult hint. Theyre doing a stadium tour next year, why not do a large show in the uk. 

[sisco]

They’ve just tweeted that announcements coming soon (so presumably next week as Neil said)

Can't imagine they'd really be the type of band that BST would book, but no chance this is a/the MCR date? The clue kinda gives me Black Parade vibes

Theres been rumors of a date at Milton Keynes for MCR . So does it make sense to have those 2 dates for them in the uk if they both happened? Or would it be one over the other? Another consideration is that AEG  put its on and MCR is playing their first reunion show next month at an AEG venue, plus their playing Coachella, so it could all tie in.

 

its not out of the question because look at how it was for Green Day? Especially with the support acts, it was essentially a day at Reading.

The children bit refers to (some of) their fans.

It’s still Kendrick Lamar

Honestly stumped with this one!

A group with a younger fanbase and a song about the occult...

One more clue!

My Chemical Romance attracted a lot of emo youth right? And ‘Welcome to the Black Parade’ could be the occult?

Billie Eilish - Bury a Friend could also be a shout.
