Headliners 2023

[CaledonianGonzo]

They didn't when they were playing upbeat bangers that people loved, but maybe playing a load of dirges will ensure the third time's the charm.

[Sketchead]

Personally think The Car would've been a much stronger album if it was majority like Sculptures.

Mirrorball and Sculptures are great. Hello You and Perfect Sense are good. The rest is totally forgettable, sadly. A couple of tracks are even, in my mind, absolutely mindbogglingly woeful.

And I'm saying this as a huge fan that's seen them live more times than I can remember!

Makes zero sense it would be 4/5 main stages and then arcadia lol

Tom Grennan 3rd down 😂

[Hugh Jass II]

Spice Girls are not playing.

As has been previously discussed there is absolutely no way Mel C would be allowed to fly to Romania and back for a DJ set on the eve of them doing the biggest gig of their careers.

Yep, that's the obvious deal breaker on this info.  Some of it's a stretch but no way on earth is this happening.

[Quark]

The thought of Iggy Pop vs Elton makes me sad.

Is she defo playing saturday in Romania? i tried their website when it was first announced but couldn't figure out the day

[MrRadioactiveCake]

Not a chance they’d clash Royal Blood with Arctics either

If stuff that was never going to happen other than in my head didn't make me sad, I would be a far happier soul 😄 

[BenG92]

Not taking it on but if Prodigy / Death Grips / Rosalia clashed I'd have absolutely no idea what to do.

Even if it’s the Thursday or Friday would she really take that gig if SG were playing GF Sunday?

Pretty sure their management wouldn’t allow it.

Yeah more likely to sub for them tbh.... i bloody hope so anyway! what a shitter of a clash that would be 

[Supernintendo Chalmers]

These industry insiders with one post do get the conversation going though, don't they? 

Of course the placements are all well-off, but I reckon the vast majority of names are correct and I'd be happy with the ones that are realistic.

Let's be honest, it's far more constructive chat when things like this pop up. Even if they do prove to be nonsense it's far preferable to, y'know, some of the other stuff.

[scatteredscreens]

Totally agree.

We'll soon find out within the next month or so. Knowing who's touring and who's already ruled out, it's relatively easy to determine who's likely to appear across the weekend. It's the stage and slot that is the difficult part to predict! Of course there'll be a few curveballs in there too! Another few weeks and we move into exciting territory...

[leath02]

The fact this person is calling The Pyramid Stage, 'Main' 

 

[Crazyfool01]

Yeah like that jp editors stuff … I’ve since found out from 2 people that there was little/ no interaction with the crowd and from what they heard nothing mentioning glastonbury … however there is a reasonable chance they appear so if take the placement with a pinch of salt tbh 

[leath02]

this smacks of someone just reading the forums and just posting the acts which are being discussed and no one outside of those

which then kinda acts as a confirmation bias and makes it look reasonably believable 

there's no way we've guessed all the top line names
