Any sign of Pulp yet?

[CaledonianGonzo]

They've also kept the likes of QOTSA and the Chemical Brothers off the line up (so far).

I think they'll do a TBC pyramid slot a la The Libertines (2015??)

I am hoping it's that rather than another Park secret set, as much as I loved that it would be nice to have them in a field big enough to accommodate everyone and big screens coz I couldn't see a single thing at Park set.

Libertines were a late addition due to D. Grohl d@bbing down.

QOTSA are headlining Sunday Other

As far as I’m aware, we *think* we know that but we don’t actually know that.

Other opener is a horrible spot that's always oversubscribed and has a rubbish atmosphere. It would be a massive waste of Pulp.

I'm also trying to catch up with some sleep. Don't make me have to get up

With all the sub slots seemingly taken, 3rd down Pyramid is the next best option.

Other headliner or secret set somewhere else would be a waste.

Couldn't agree more! ... would be a travesty if they played there.

I'd rather wait until 2024.

Rumoured to be coming back to do the Arcadia DJ set they had to cancel last year, so wouldn’t actually be on the lineup poster regardless.

I think it’s only the Warrington one that hasn’t sold out isn’t it? I think that the rest are all gone? 

Nope… IoW, Trnsmt and Latitude aren’t sold out, and the involvement of.Glastonbury director in the latter may explain the lack of announcement if they are booked.

Wow, I just (re)looked at the Latitude lineup, and am not surprised they aren't sold out.  Very slim pickings there - maybe four acts across the whole weekend that could (for example) sell 10k+ tickets in London - i.e. a date at Ally Pally or more - Pulp, Paolo Nutini, George Ezra and The Kooks?

Ah okay. I thought that the Pulp day tickets had gone at least for Glasgow. Apologies!

The line up this year is far from stellar, if Pulp were booked they would have been announced already surely 

There may have it written into the contract to delay, it’s common if acts have other shows to sell 

[NorthernSoul52]

When is the first Pulp show again? Aware I could search it on the internet, but greater fun to ask.

Would be too dangerous having pulp in a tent announced

All depends who they’re up against. If it is Saturday night then it might well be, especially if it was raining.

[bexj]

Agree, it seems unlikely but as we know from The Killers, they can manage the crowd there.  

 

And I'd watch Pulp over Elton.. If I was going this year!

The only possible way they could have an announced Pulp set in a tent would be if it was directly against Elton, and even that's a stretch.

If they're announced, they'll either be Pyramid somewhere or the missing Other Headliner that we all expect to be QOTSA.

[Memory Man]

Pulp is only woodsies as a TBA

starting to think its not happening. Only possibilities are 3rd down pyramid or a TBA most likely woodsies if thats how its been done.

60% not playing

30% Pyramid 3rd

10% Woodsies TBA

0% Woodsies announced

no doubt they’re first on the “let’s call them last minute” list if any pyramid headliner, sub or other stage headliners had to pull out.
