Headliners 2023

[TGCarr]

Also just announced

Now that Blur are officially on the scene, I'll be even more disappointed if that bandana wearing tit and his top hat mate end up screeching their way through a headline set and not Damon and co.

I'm unlikely to watch Blur unless there's really nothing else on.

But agree, there's no way "that bandana wearing tit and his top hat mate" should be anywhere near Pilton on that weekend.

I was beginning to think well if there's not that many names on the scene next year then booking them MIGHT be acceptable but given Blur are about 2 weeks later I'll disappointed if they went with GnR. Of course could be the case that blur don't want it but still, it'd go down WAY better than GnR.

Not much they can do if Blur don't want to do it this time around...

But a secret set seems like a way around the fact that Wembley is their only official gig. Damon is obviously there most years anyway in one guise or another.

Would be up there on the most packed secret sets though, which I actually cba with. But you're right and I'd sooner have it than no blur at all. If it's not sold out it might be a good push for publicity two weeks prior if it's filmed (which I'm assuming it would be).

If Roxy Music are playing without Eno (boo) hopefully he will turn up and play a 6 hours ambient set in the greenfields instead.

Crazy how Silk Sonic nor Weeknd are considered for next year. 

 

The Weeknd is very very pay driven i think. Not sure about bruno mars

In terms of Glastonbury, Blur are 100 times better than Gorillaz.

Blur 2009 was one of the all time greatest sets on the Pyramid. Gorillaz stank the place out in 2010 and had lost half the crowd by the end. 

Gorillaz definitely need another shot imo!

Six hour sets are easy for eno, just turn on the computer.

Would we say Lizzo’s locked in now with those tour dates?

No, but I'd be extremely surprised if she doesn't do an EU festival run next summer. It's a no brainer sub for Elton if she's around.

Camp at Glasto. Now that sounds like an idea.

True!

 

but she hasn’t been announced for anything so far. EU tour is in 3 months time.

 

would’ve expected something by now

Sub or Other headline.

Not at all because it’s all states side.

If she pops up at a European festival then we can start talking.

[4AssedMonkey]

So Lizzo is touring UK/EU at the start of the year, then back over the pond for Apr-Jun for the next leg. Would we say that makes it more or less likely her being over here for the summer festival run?

[CaledonianGonzo]

Neither really. As above, if she starts popping up at Euro festivals it'll be more of a hint.
