You know I mentioned more than 3 names right?

If you genuinely look at that 2020 poster and think "that's not very strong" then fair enough. But I can safely say you'd be in a tiny minority.

Yes, but they were directly 3 names I didn't care about, absolutely no interest in the Legend slot.

Yes the post I had around 12 acts on the poster I'd have seen but that doesn't make anything else weak. I had 13/14 on last years first poster.

This is the subjectivity/ objectivity argument though.

Subjectively: Coldplay/ Lewis Capaldi/ Ed Sheeran are boring to me. But artists like that are always among the most popular at the festival. So objectively the festival is making good choices when booking these.

Saying Kendrick Lamar isn't a good booking is just confusing to me. One of the biggest and most acclaimed artists on Earth.

As long as Cider is on the lineup I'm happy.

[NorthernSoul52]

Wonder who our sub will be for the emergency step-up. My big concern about Stevie is that he could well be a late pull-out for health reasons.

Obviously, if that chat about Dave being a sub this year is true, there's your logical answer.

Greetings UK festival fans! Hello from California, I posted on here once before and gave you something that turned out to be some useful information…. But I could not remember my old log in…. Doh 

Anyway -  You will shortly receive info that Oliver Rodrigo will be headlining Glastonbury 2024!  News from her camp is that she was going to play the festival in an non-headliner capacity but has had talks with the festivals team and will now play the main stage as a headliner instead.

I'm sure you will want to look to validate this info, I can’t give you anymore at this point, but there will be some good clues around in a couple of weeks im sure you will find. 

Peace out.

Nah, been replaced by peace off 

[CaledonianGonzo]

Peace of piss

[Supernintendo Chalmers]

Give peace out a chance 

[Franky]

In fairness I sometimes use, peace out one love. 
 

but then I also use, word to your mutha. 
 

Either way, some useful information came my way about the KLF !!

 

Turns out, they are headlining 👍

[CaledonianGonzo]

If they walk onstage again with that white woman in the war bonnet they'll get cancelled before they can even play a note.

Not an argument, just a debate.

What someone can't say, they can if they aren't interested. Kendrick would never be an artist for me have booked at all so from that view on what I would like and pay my money for then he isn't a good booking. He is way way bigger overseas though, did he not pull an average size crowd for Glastonbury?

If someone didn't like Elton John, would that be a bad booking?

[dianawolws]

Dua Lipa, Taylor Swift

[jadedj]

How soon is "shortly"? 

[NorthernSoul52]

Are we of the agreement Rodrigo is at headliner level right now? I'd argue she is, but could also conceivably be a sub if we had an obscenely strong trio elsewhere.

[CaledonianGonzo]

It's a yes from me, Bob.

But not at the expense of the current 3 rumoured names we have.

What was the information, because you can search for that, to find your old profile...because, funnily enough...I don't believe you...

[CantWaitForGlasto22]

Hmmmm. Not sure about this Olivia “info” - whole delivery seems strange. Or maybe she’s headlining the “main stage” in the same way as Lana Del Ray last year (ie The Other)?

Peace out.

Exactly this. I judge Glastonbury bookings by two separate measures.

 

1. Subjectively do I like them?

2. Objectively are they a good book if for the festival that justifies their slot?

The two are often very different but the second one is actually more important.

So many clever people on here
