I'm still considering heading to either Lytham St Anne's or Scarborough for her date there. It's a long old drive but it not £60

But what are the petrol/accomodation costs?

I'd look into it as taking time to explore an area I'd not visited before coming home so it becomes an overnight trip. But Scarborough I'm busy already and lytham hall I need holiday for I'm just not going to try and get. In London I'd take the next day off and train it for convenience.

Thought young female pop star would be up your street? 

I know her agent so will put the feelers out.

Guessing she would be mid-afternoon Pyramid or 3rd Other.

Er no. Some users on these forums can’t tell the difference but radio 1 filler music isn’t it.

I file her under the Emiliee Sande, Rag N Bone man, Clean Bandit style of filler pop.

People who release music while we are all waiting for the next Billie, Lorde, Taylor, Gaga, Dua, Ariana, Adele etc album.

Well she was on the Pyramid in 2019 mid afternoon. So a few spots up on the Pyramid or Other. She got her start from being in Rudimentals touring band in 2012 and then went  proper solo a few years later.

Lmfao, Billie and Ariana (especially Ariana) are not in the same league as the others

If you can’t party rock on a Friday night then when can you?

Friday, Monday, Wednesday... Doesn't matter what day of the week because you know - you can GUARANTEE - that I am shuffling.

Yeah I don’t see Frank returning to the Coachella lineup. He always seemed like a wild card booking to begin with but what with the death of his brother and now seemingly his album being delayed he seems less likely than ever.

That said, I suppose he was booked for Coachella for a reason and maybe he’s put his touring habits of old behind him, so who knows? I’d love to see him announced again if only to indicate that something is on the horizon. 
 

edit: reckon Rage and Travis will be back though

@jparx

Someone on the coachella boards has now said the top line of the bill is intact. Not sure of the validity of this because that would mean Thom Yorke is coming back? Unless they mean the Smile?

IF and I mean IF coachella has gone for a very close 2020 rebook thats extremely exciting as it means Lana is doing festivals in 2022.

Yes Frank is impossible to secure for other festivals but I think Coachella give him the cash he wants.

Would the top line not just be the three headliners?

Could be. Bit of an ambiguous comment though. Coachella’s poster usually has a top line (the strip of bolded artists) that agents seem to fight hard for a place!

Looking at the 2020 top line the only one I can't see being rebooked is Thom, but that could easily just be the smile.

I’ve heard nothing but bad things about Frank Ocean live from people who’ve actually managed to see him for what it’s worth. Not sure he’s really worth all the hype he generates

Yeah his last tour got very mixed reviews, but then he was touring a very downbeat album that really didn’t lend itself to the major festival headline slots he was doing and seems like doing his own shows would’ve been the right road to take, and also barely played anything from his previous more upbeat album(s). No idea what his new material will sound like, but maybe it’ll be better suited for this kind of thing.

Tbh I love his music but I imagine you're right. He released two very fashionable albums and the mystique around him will mean he will remain a ticket seller and a strong hype act. Bad live performances won't change anything.

Frank isnt coming back. And it will be a collective groan of “this is it?” after the massive price hike if something doesnt change, especially in the headliner department.  An extra $20 million has to go somewhere.

She was pretty entertaining on Celebrity Bake-Off, although I'm not sure how that effects your prestige levels.

Scenes when she uses a Pyramid headline set to whip up some choux buns instead of singing anything.
