The 1975

Reckon 18 songs max? If they could push it out to 21, I think something like this would work nicely. No need for the house, just have the ATPOAIM stage setup + a greatest hits set. This gives you a split of 4, 4, 6, 3, 4 from each of the 5 albums, which feels about right to me. It does neglect the EPs, but I guess the pyramid wouldn't necessarily be the place for deep cuts.

1. If You're Too Shy (Let Me Know)
2. Sex
3. Happiness
4. TOOTIMETOOTIMETOOTIME
5. Love Me
6. Oh Caroline
7. Paris
8. Robbers
9. About You
10. I Like America and America Likes Me (Real World Version)
11. It's Not Living (If It's Not With You)
12. Me & You Together Song
13. Heart Out
14. Somebody Else
15. Frail State Of Mind 
16. I'm In Love With You
17. Chocolate
18. Love It If We Made It
19. I Always Wanna Die (Sometimes)
20. Give Yourself A Try
21. The Sound

Anyway, can't see them being booked (this year at least), but one can dream!

I'd be delighted with that.

Assumed 18 or 19 max, given the Reading set clocked in at 95 minutes with 19. Really depends how long Glastonbury suggests they do.

That would look pretty ‘standard’ and I would hope someone with Matty’s ego would make headlining Glastonbury a bit special. Probably optimistic but I have a dream that closing the Pyramid is finally ‘important’ enough for them to justify bringing out Antichrist.

I know it's become a meme but isn't there something about it being so old that they no longer have the original stems to be able to recreate it live? You're right that the Pyramid would be the right place for it, though I'm not even sure Matty can even sing that low anymore...

[NorthernSoul52]

Unlike the running joke, Antichrist is one of those I could go without.

I'd assume, given it's the crowning achievement, they'd play it safe and maybe dust off a big early classic. Money would be on The City, I'd guess.

1 The City

17 Give Yourself a Try
18 The Sound

Add The City, Oh Caroline, A Change of Heart and I'm In Love With You to my working notion of a show if it was this year. I'm still trying to keep People away!

[NorthernSoul52]

What's all this nattering on about now then?

[MrHew]

No idea if it's likely and they're definitely not one for me. I think I mentioned earlier in the thread that I gave them a go based on recommendations on here but I don't get it. 

 

That said they're absolutely big enough to headline and would make a lot of people happy. 

[NorthernSoul52]

Not the clip per se, but do enjoy this live version of Love It If We Made It from their Madison Square Garden show the other year.

I am sure if someone can find Matty Healy & ask him about the Glastonbury slot, he will say it straight out...yes hopefully!

Does he have a reputation for being a bit like Tom Holland and just giving the game away early?

[NorthernSoul52]

Not necessarily, and he is a noted troll. But he also wouldn't likely keep it a close secret if the ink is dry on the paper. 

 

Then again, he may do. 

[Rose-Colored Boy]

The Mail and Metro now also picking up on The S*n’s report - looks like this is a done deal. Know a lot of people won’t be fussed but personally I’m thrilled.

Would be elsewhere, these leave me completely cold. He's a right tosser the frontman. 

[NorthernSoul52]

Wouldn't be the first tosser, wouldn't be the last tosser. Music is full of 'em.

[Jack H]

If they did a very similar setlist to their Reading one in 2022, (minus People, chuck in Oh Caroline) it would be immense

They’ve done two massive arena tours for Notes so hoping there’s something new to be added personally. Or at least some deep cuts that can replace tired stuff like The Sound. Antichrist is the obvious one but also stuff like Noting Revealed / Everything Denied that they rarely if ever play. 

[SwedgeAntilles]

Stick Charli up against them on the Other please.

Probably the least likely clash of the weekend. 

[WhoOdyssey]

I suspect that Charli will want to watch her fiance headline the Pyramid Stage.

I agree but surely she wouldn't turn down headlining the second-largest stage at Glasto to do that? 

[Rose-Colored Boy]

Don’t think they’d even ask her. More logical to just put her up against Fender. 

[Rose-Colored Boy]

There’s a fair bit of crossover between 1975 and Charli fans anyway so better to just put the Chemical Brothers or the Prodge or something up against Matty and co, regardless of the engagement. 

[NorthernSoul52]

Sound off on The Sound, easily one of their biggest crossover bangers. You leave that one there where it deserves to be, as a possible closer.

[Rose-Colored Boy]

Early bedtime if The Sound is the closer. Suits me.
