I'm going for Pulp, Sting/Kasabian, Olivia Rodrigo as a sub doing Glastonbury as her only festival show.

Sting/Kasabian subbing Stevie

Pulp under Dua Lipa

Olivia under Coldplay.

Kasabian a festival exclusive at Latitude so unlikely they’ll be playing Glastonbury.

Sting, Pulp and Olivia would be a cracking trio of subs. Would probably skip Pulp depending on alternatives as I’ll see them at Primavera in May.

Yeah if you put those 3 under the suggested headliners nothing is beating that. I have just suggested though I wonder if Biffy Clyro are returning here, by far the biggest gap they've had and for where they currently are a Glastonbury sub slot is a good shout for them. I get when when Fender did Victorious too he was bumped up but no one saw it as undeserved.

I don't think it would be the best fun but I think it could be fun.

That would be very strong set of subs.

Yeah they don’t have anything lined up past March and aren’t booked for any festivals so I think they’re out.

That's a good thing. As much as I love em, another Other Stage headline spot would be pretty uninspired. 

My BMTH prediction got correctly blown out of the water too!

I'm loving the fact that we hardly have any real definitive information this year. Some rumours from sources who've been right in the past and a whole bunch of guesswork. It's great.

BMTH are free Sunday and often do 3 or even 4 day stretches of gigs so they could still do the Sunday, although it would be a wild schedule for them to do so possibly unlikely.

I'll be a bit sad if they aren't there, but it will at least justify getting tix for RAH.  I had convinced myself they would be on the Other stage this year (based on nothing).

There still seems like lot's of potential Other Stage headliners.

I think that looks most likely is The National on the Sunday.  Beyond that I've lost track a bit.

Yeah, I had em down for Saturday, cos I'm pretty sure The National might take up that Other spot. Ahh, f**k it, what do I know?! 😃

Would be pretty up for BMTH on the Sunday but I think my wife would be less than keen.  Been playing Kool Aid a lot.

I would rather have the National than BMTH though if I had to pick one.

Fair play. I couldn't justify a ticket price which is a the third of the cost of a Glastonbury ticket. 

It'll be amazing in that space, though. The RAH is one of my absolute favourite venues.

How did Primavera suddenly hit 135 euro for a day ticket and 311 for a full weekend. £115 and £265 is mad.

A couple of bad clashes there:

Pulp vs Jungle vs Justice

Also why are several people putting Justice on WO? Great booking, dreadful venue.

Chaka Khan v Coldplay the only clash 😢

Is there a reason everyone's choosing Friday for the Smile? Could they be a different day?

Am I silly or would the Other be too much for them?

West Holts again would be perfect however.

Judging by the crowd last time, and the reports from those that saw them encouraging others*, I think the Other would be fine.

Although I prefer West Holts.

* One the best sets I've ever seen anywhere
