I know for a load of people on here they'd go down like a wet long drop but they're undeniably big names to top el pointo. Well, Cardi B released her big comeback single today… It debuted at just #70 on Spotify and #138 on Apple Music (both UK), quite a way off WAP charting at #1 a few years ago!

Not keen on it at all, but I think it could be a song to watch, reckon it could be a riser. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monty Pythagoras Posted September 11, 2023 Report Share Posted September 11, 2023 I really really like the 1975 but I do find it strange that the band have all made burner accounts and are actively trying to get themselves a headline slot by spamming this website. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supreme2 Posted September 11, 2023 Report Share Posted September 11, 2023 do find it mad how they haven't played since their 2nd album cycle and potentially wont be playing until their 6th! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FloorFiller Posted September 11, 2023 Report Share Posted September 11, 2023 2018 being a non-festival year and then COVID coming along in 2020/21 is the reason they’ve not played in a while as it all aligned with their albums and touring plans - reckon they could’ve subbed in ‘18 and/or headlined in ‘21 if the festival was on those years. Problem is, there are often just bigger or better options that take priority over them so they’re no doubt on the back burner until the festival is low on choices. Could very well do 2025 with a new album, but could just as easily be passed up once again. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glasto96 Posted September 12, 2023 Report Share Posted September 12, 2023 Anyone find it weird how this time last year we all seemed to have a good idea of the 3 headliners and this chat was booming. This year nothing is set in stone and everyone is quiet? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaledonianGonzo Posted September 12, 2023 Report Share Posted September 12, 2023 Arctic Monkeys maybe, but it was much later in the year that GnR and Elton started looking more likely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CaledonianGonzo Posted September 12, 2023 Report Share Posted September 12, 2023 Roughbloke's post suggesting GnR must have been October sort of time. But few folk bought it - at least not until Elton was announced, which was early December I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sadimmock Posted September 12, 2023 Report Share Posted September 12, 2023 If I had to guess. Dua Lipa will be announced in Nov (but will have been obvious since Oct). The other two will come relatively late due to there being several irons in the fire. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely if there's serious serious interest in the film then conversations will be had - assuming they aren't being had already. Even if it's a one off - although that one off will end up being a mega payday at Coachella. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drinky Posted September 12, 2023 Report Share Posted September 12, 2023 I think there's been serious interest for a long time in a reformed Talking Heads tour, especially as the oldest generation of legends starts to retire (or... the other thing). I think you're right that it would be a one-off, maybe not for Coachella's Gen Z/Alpha types but for a future Desert Trip on the same site Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
