this .... in which case it doesn't mean a coldplay announcement .... we've seen images like that on the cam several times  .... maybe birds .... but manifesting those into coldplay images is a bg push 

Haha yeah that's blatantly a bird. 

 

I did not see it properly before

Glastonbury Festival Fans group was the top post in the group.

Not helpful but i was shown it on someone else phone. I'm not in the group.

 

Glastonbury Festival Fans is the biggest BS forum known to man. Hard ignore.

[Gnomicide]

That blurred bird thing happens a lot.

Blatantly a bird is the highlight of our weekend.

Poster can't come soon enough.

Yes, I’d agree, we’re suffering from announcement starvation.

Saw this earlier but the account who posted has been deleted. Pretty sure they are pearl jam lyrics after the bit about Stevie wonder. 
theres lots of things lined up there but also a couple wild ones like future islands but there in America.. the poster comment with an edit from future islands to young fathers. Dunno though

That's the lyrics to Wishing Well by Free, dude. Pretty sure they ain't playing.

Such bollocks this. For one, (as you said) Future Islands are in America over Glastonbury weekend.

I have doubts over Stevie because that BST show is going to be a full album with orchestra affair - I reckon we may be looking at Shania Sunday afternoon and Stevie Nicks right on the top of the bill

[wrongturn]

I'd take Nicks in the top slot - a female heritage act and core member of one of the most successful bands of all time. Seems obvious to me. If she rolls out some solid guests, even better.

I'm sill struggling to reconcile it tbf. Most expensive single gig I've done was less than £90, but only way I'd feel ok paying over £100 per ticket is if it was a festival ticket with at least 6 acts I'd want to see. And even then, it's still weird given the memories of it once being half that.

At present that's $125, so it may not be that out of sync with what the cheap seats are at US shows before that dynamic pricing horseshit is activated.

Yeah days like Reading are justifiable but Slam Dunk for example is the most over priced day festival I've seen this year and it's towards my kind of music just not for me this year. Even if it had been last year though, I wouldn't have justified £125.

£180 for a 3 day and £244 for a 4 day Trees ticket not being of interest to me is probably even worse this year. The day ticket and especially evening ticket prices are still worth it if it's your thing but the pricing makes it look like you now pay for camping/they are justifying the allowed option to bring alcohol in.

It’s the same for people who say Download should give KoRn a headline slot. Why bump KoRn up when you can have a headline act with KoRn playing under them?

Because people want different headliners and a longer set means more songs for the first time. Download won't do it because there is no justification in sales for it

Don't see Nicks topping it, that would just be a ploy to get any female act at the top. More likely Olvia agrees to headline.

I'd take that right now. Only thing that gets me away from the National...although...why am I inviting sickening clashes??? 😄

What stage for Drogba?

[NorthernSoul52]

Have I missed Stevie Wonder being chalked off now?

[CaledonianGonzo]

Nope

[NorthernSoul52]

Cool.

[Drinky]

Still assuming that he’s on for Sunday - the evidence against was:

- Reddit poster above who has a string of plausible names + stages who says ‘No stevie’

- That industry page posted a week or so back that didn’t have Stevie in the frame for G but said he was doing an album show at BST with an orchestra

Thin gruel compared to trusted folk on Discord who say he’s in, but it’s something

There is about 90% overlap with those reddit names and the discord list - seems unlikely it would be that high if they hadn't just got them off there

Yeah don't know why but I don't think this is real. I expect lots of those names to be there but just looks like a load of very plausible names to me. Most people on here could pull a list like this together.

We have been over and over this .....

 

It's the KLF

Stevie Nicks solo is never, ever, ever headlining the Pyramid.
