Sorry if this is a bit random, is there a reason people don’t think Harry Styles can sub Elton, a friend has been told this was happening but I have it in my head that it wasn’t possible but his tour dates seem to be free 

Harry Styles is probably the most popular male performer anywhere right now. His stadium shows sell out in no time. Maybe though he could come on as a guest during Reg’s set (waiting for @Gnomicide to say he can’t as he’s in Czech Republic that night)

He has an appointment in a clothes shop in Berlin on the Sunday.

TBF he could do with some new threads

Bit of a shame about harry styles, I was kind of looking forward to him! Thought he would have been a fab sub for Elton. Although if the ~leaks~ that were revealed yesterday have any weight it'll be the 1975 which makes less sense but is of course very reliable and true.

Still vaguely wonder when The Libertines will disintegrate. They just appear to be sustaining on pure vibes, which isn't too different to their whole existence in the first place.

Tbh wouldn't mind some new material from them. Anthems For Doomed Youth was actually pretty good all things considered. Though they seem pretty happy doing what they're doing at the moment.

There is a very very marginal chance that Harry sees opening for Elton's final UK show as a high honour and does it anyway, but I wouldn't put £1 on it.

I've seen enough Would I Lie to you to know that calling Razorlight to headline the West Holts stage is so far fetched, illogical, bizarre and unlikely that it must be true.

 

If Bob Mortimer told you you would wonder...

Playing Belgium on the Saturday and isn’t doing back to back in different venues, yet alone countries, anywhere.

Have Belgium appointed a new manager since the world cup.

And the fact he’s absolutely massive and would only headline!

Please let it not be Florence. Open to a swerve for the most part but not interested in that headliner at all. 

[CaledonianGonzo]

I wouldn't worry. She's a one and done - bit not for the usual reasons.

Rude. I think he looks great. Very 70’s Bowie/Elton/Glam. Not everyone can pull off a blouse, pearls and v-neck sweater but he looks fucking ace in it.

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

Rosalia.

Would florence do it again?

I still could see her doing a secret set on the Saturday, maybe they turned it down last year to do it this summer instead?

I agree - too soon to headline but an unannounced Park set is perfect for her 

[Hugh Jass II]

With the number of unannounced/secret threads everyone is touting the lineup is just going to be question marks and TBCs.

With Razorlight legging it between stages to do most of them.

The 1975 and Florence both seem like good candidates to be the ‘big’ secret act of this year, although I was saying exactly the same thing last year and we got Ezra so who knows. Flo’s dates are awfully convenient though.

Flo does like getting messed up with her friends at Glasto so might just be that

Have we ruled out Rhianna with a post-Super Bowl announcement?
