All still very circumstantial for Madge at this point.

Everything for all acts is circumstantial at this stage.

In the strictest sense of it, yes. 

But we know that Dua will bite their hand off if offered and Coldplay are a no-brainer option if funds are tight.

Whereas they've probably asked Madge several times before and been knocked back every year.

They’ve never asked her whilst she’s been on a global greatest hits tour before though.

She may do it, she may not, but at this stage she can’t be ruled out as a contender.

[Hugh Jass II]

We’ve all been around long enough to know how this works. At this stage all Madge could do is rule herself out with those rearranged dates and she hasn’t.

I really wouldn’t be shocked if she booked a big outdoor gig (BST most likely) next summer.

[CaledonianGonzo]

Yeah, that's the new dynamic.  I'm not saying it won't happen; I'm just not getting hyped up for it yet.

Dua, Coldplay, Madge.

Would be a great trio and I can definitely see it with the info we currently have.

Only just realised I’m going to what is now the opening night of Madge’s world tour.

At least youre guaranteed to not have a cancellation. Hopefully she goes on before 10pm

Madonna has never really done a greatest hits tour before. Also having seen how what it was like for macca and reg they can use that to appeal to her ego. 

[Suprefan]

The Eavii should pull the trigger.

Madge is desperate for a credibility boost. Not sure how she'll handle going out live for an hour. That'll be strange and unusual torture for the soundman .

Pop acts headlining is one thing. Manufactured boy bands is another. Having said that, shooting them seems unnecessary.

instead they should be sent on an undercover mission to North Korea.

I think two is extremely likely. I take the wording for debut as a female headliner, which puts Madonna, Dua Lipa and Rihanna in the frame. They aren't not going to book Dua Lipa because she's not completely new.

That's just an awful read, half of it is about Blur's forthcoming tour with a gap for Glastonbury that has gone, and the rest we know. Even a link the Madonna's rescheduled dates that haven't been rescheduled yet.

Do you understand the definition of the word "half"?

Then you cant have Harry Styles headline because he was in One Direction who were a manufactured boy band. Or exceptions are made due to the origin of said manufacturing.

Harry Styles sold about a 30 stadium dates here vs BTS selling like 2 at wembley a few years back to an audience who doesn't go to glasto

more chance of bad bunny playing

they are after 2 female headliners this year and then it seems coldplay are nailed on so probably not... too many male acts around to waste it on the 1975

I've been gone awhile so what is it that makes Coldplay nailed on?

Not actually sure just keep seeing it haha!

I think with 2 female headliners that the 1975 would be fairly far down the list for a male headliner

wish they'd take other to be honest, they'd smash it and the screens would work far better for them anyway

They have a decent sized gap in the 2024 European tour

[JonSnow]

Il always remember what my grandad said to me on his deathbed when he passed.

He said 'Jon, there are three things guaranteed in this life. Death, taxes, and Suprefan calling for an act thats big in the USA but not in the Uk to headline Glastonbury'

If Coldplay go more than 8 years without headlining Glastonbury the world will stop spinning on its axis and we'll be flung into space.
