Why wouldn’t they clash Dua and charli?

I think this year there will be some head scratching clashes as it’s clearly difficult to get everyone who can play on the lineup.

Because I think they’ll have a huge crossover.

for me:

Kendrick, Dua and Editors headlining 3 of the stages separates the crowd nicely

Macca, Charlie and Calvin the same

But all personal opinion hey.

I think this info that Calvin isn’t performing as Calvin Harris could be right. I heard he was playing Pangea but nothing as to whether it meant he was only doing one set.

Dont they just post lots about it and get some right?  .... im sure thats what ive seen mentioned before on here 

Yep. Including getting things very wrong and then standing by it even as things unfold and it can't possibly be true.

I never even bothered clicking the link at first as based on that url I assumed this was the next step from you linking to Little James. 

 

People not interested in the latest Courteeners and Fratellis jams have no idea what you mean right now.

Not from my experience. 

It's not solid.

They had Foo Fighters down to headline 2016 for ages, saying that it would be Foos, Muse and Coldplay. Then they had Paul McCartney and Kendrick Lamar down to headline 2019.

Now it's laid out like that, however, could Dua Lipa be headlining the Other in 2021?

Dua Saturday night... Calvin pops up to pretend he's doing something behind the decks for One Kiss, followed by him on Pangea at midnight.  You heard it here first.

[Matt42]

This info is interesting because it looks like every single mainstage is set to have at least one female headliner

Well, Macca was down to headline 2019...  And I imagine the negotiations with Kendrick have been going on for years and there was almost certainly at least an attempt to get him last year too, as the festival don't just try to get 3 headliners and having to resort to The Killers implies that more than just Macca didn't come off.  Similarly, Foos were in tentative negotiations long before they actually appeared, similar to the current situation with FM.  So The Scum don't have faultless information, but they're clearly getting stuff that is coming from good sources even if it doesn't always come off.  Compared with others, I'd say their record of revealing things to do with Glastonbury is pretty great.

FWIW Foo Fighters did have a tentative agreement at first to come back after cancelling, I reckon Muse were a replacement booking when Foos plans were made clear.

That’s what I’m thinking, with all this talk of 50/50 then they would get slated if the headliners we all male across the stages.

So FKA Twigs on WH?

I was about to say this. Looks very clear for me!

Yes I reckon so.

Pyramid: Kendrick Lamar, Paul McCartney, Taylor Swift

Other: Royal Blood, Dua Lipa, Pet Shop Boys

West Holts: Thom Yorke, FKA TWIGS, The Isley Brothers

John Peel: Editors, Charli XCX, Orbital

Is my guess for stage headliners. At least one female on each stage looks great for the 50/50 objectives.

They obviously have contacts who know who is on the festival’s wish list for the year and who they are speaking to. Until the contracts are signed, sealed and announced there will always be a pinch of salt required.

How sure are people of The Isley Brothers? Is that for the Sunday like?

Not sure how you work that out when its clearly 33/66

??? Surely it helps them reach a more balanced lineup in total if there are female bookings spread throughout each stage.

[OnlyRevolutions]

I know they're not everyones favourite band on here but do you think Catfish & The Bottlemen could sub Other this year like Courteeners and Two Door did this year? they've got a gap in their dates, could be an alternative for Lana Del Rey on the Friday

I’d be surprised if they’re not there.  Could even do 3rd on Pyramid.

I don’t see why not. They’re not my cup of tea but seems about their level.

There was a clip on the Saturday afternoon bbc show where they talked about the gender balance, and one of the things discussed was the lack of female headliners which is the biggest challenge.

Of course.  But i'd say that's the case with any outlet.

Damn it really want to her physical live but I can’t turn my back on any of the pyramid headliners this year
