dentalplan Posted January 31, 2021 Report Share Posted January 31, 2021 It would be as monumental as Adele, vital as Stormzy, joyous as Stevie Wonder with the atmosphere of The Rolling Stones if The Stereophonics came back to headline Glastonbury.

Oh man I wish I'd been the first one to get the 2019 line up completely wrong. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hugh Jass Posted January 31, 2021 Report Share Posted January 31, 2021 I’d happily watch Stereophonics run through the hits for an hour somewhere on the bill... but taking up prime Pyramid real estate?? Fuck that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CaledonianGonzo Posted January 31, 2021 Report Share Posted January 31, 2021 Yeah- I guess I was meaning an evolution of that. Was the last concrete info that surfaced based on the stage spotify playlists that were released? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt42 Posted January 31, 2021 Report Share Posted January 31, 2021 Lol come on we haven’t descended to the level of “kaiser chiefs to sub” style predictions yet have we? The festival would have to be completely fucked to be in a situation where phonics were headlining. Events like IOW exist for this reason.

CaledonianGonzo Posted January 31, 2021 Report Share Posted January 31, 2021 Thanks. 2022's got its work cut out- but I guess the upside is that everyone's gonna want a piece of the action. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're right about there being big demand for spots. Sorta feel that all bets are off with the lineup now. On one hand, the return of acts who were either unsure or had 2021 blocked out regardless could bring the lineup closer to 2020 than what we were expecting for 2021. Swift, Del Rey, Gallagher, Carlsson, Cabello back in the mixer. But it throws 'album tours' out the window. Acts are gonna be coming through with releases in late 2021 and early 2022 who will have punters hungry to hear their new tunes. More so than for acts who released stuff in 2019, 2020 and perhaps even early this year. I think a lot of festivals which eventually cancel will have to make decisions between honouring 2020 lineups and getting who people want for 2022. Obviously the headliners for Glastonbury are fine to stick around but let's see how things go elsewhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The possibilities seemed pretty small too - unless it was someone very weird. Will go down as a mystery we may never know the answer to.

In 2020 she would probably have had a fairly big billing but she's faced a fair amount of criticism back in the first half of last year. If the festival was in a normal cycle she might not get as big a billing as people would think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously the headliners for Glastonbury are fine to stick around but let's see how things go elsewhere. Agree with this. My feeling is that the three headliners and Diana will be given first refusal on returning but the rest of the lineup will be rebuilt from scratch. Obviously there will be some crossover from 2020 simply because a lot of those acts will be looking to tour again, but it won’t be a straight lift and shift.
