Is this right? the article that jumped the gun said they're headlining.

Unless there are four days I can’t see any of George, Sam, 1975 agreeing to play below Pulp.

Britpop legends Pulp will be one of the headline acts at next year’s TRNSMT, organisers have said

Well for a three day event who from George, Sam, 1975 would agree to sub? All three are headliners.

True.

I actually wouldn't mind if they subbed but it would be absolutely rammed.

Maybe. But I’ve said for a while now that I think the demographic of efests is skewing the size of their reunion a bit.

Pulp have never in their entire career been a headline or nothing band.

I'll be going to their own shows for the gig and then to the Pyramid for the vibe.

That's where I'm at too. Increasingly think APE will be one, but really hoping for an indoor gig.

[Matt42]

But anyway, they need to be the Taylor sub. It would be class.

I think you'd be surprised of the pull. If they subbed the pyramid they'd easily be the biggest thing on at that moment. I don't think people on here are overblowing it that much. I've seen maybe one suggestion they'd headline but most of us don't expect that.

Glastonbury has a lot of attendees in their late 30s and 40s so can see them getting a decent crowd for sure.

APE on paper would seem perfect, but it being at the end of the summer throws the timelines off. Unless they're planning on doing a long run and swinging back to London.

I'm expecting the O2.

Definitely, the picnic blanket lot will love it but also people who missed their last reunion.

There is definitely at least one small indoor gig in Yorkshire.....

When is TRNSMT?

God I hope not the O2. Ally Pally, Brixton or Hammersmith please.

I actually don't want to see them at APE as I don't love it but I'll be there if they play it.

TRNMT is early-mid July I think.

Went for O2 as it's the biggest indoor arena. Brixton/Hammersmith/AP would be incredible but I wouldn't fancy the scramble for tickets.

[Hugh Jass II]

Wembley Arena another distinct possibility.

Given they posted a photo of Bridlington Spa earlier, I think that's the implication.

Which would be an interesting choice.

[Zoo Music Girl]

Wembley and O2 are both such soulless sheds, would much rather they do two nights at something smaller.

So whats wrong with doing a short run, taking a break and keep going? Nobody needs to tour for 2 months straight anymore and have to have some logical loop of show bookings. If Pulp are being selective in what theyre doing then if a bunch of it is in june/july then theyll do that and then whatever else.
