Are Biffy big enough to sub these days? Seems like it would be another situation like this year where the Pyramid is half empty because its not 2011 anymore.

 

Don't start Andre off, it's a good job he doesn't go. In reality for me, they've not made a decent record since 2013 and that should have been pulled into a single one.

Here it is! 😊

 

 

 

Yeah they haven't just written hag with no info, far too much made up detail and all 3 of them you wouldn't put it past. Going for two female headliners again though is questionable but size wise isn't Olivia is still the biggest crowd pullet they can book their in my view.

...are all songs that they shouldn't play if they want to knock a terrific hour out of the park.

 

To be honest 4 of those are stone wall inclusions.

Overwhelmed due to behavior entirely of her own making, she did this to herself. By all means go take time off, but don't tell me she's cut out for this line of work.


 

get stalkers and your family doxxed within a fee months of becoming very famous and let us know how you would adjust. This is magnified more because she is queer and the fanbase is taking their apparent "ownership" of her to another level. Its been like this for queer artists recently and its very toxic.
 

People are upset that she isnt tip toeing around her political views and just giving the party line. Calling out both sides bullshit isnt wrong. Her even mentioning that she has family that have conservative views and that she still loves them seemed to be the final straw. Youre supposed to cast them out or somehow convince them otherwise or youre not doing your job. People are stupid.

 

in regards to her management and such, yeah, theyve not done the best about certain things. But put it on the label cause they didnt give a sh*t about her a year ago. They shouldve stepped in right after the Olivia tour and gotten some experienced people to deal with sh*t. She has said she is taking a break through the spring but I wont be surprised if she does indeed stop. If she cancels her festival show next weekend its very much over I think.

I agree with most of the above, but she really should have just stepped away from social media once the initial backlash started. Enough other new artists know better than to feed the trolls. Her performing at ATG would have been a much more mature response to all her c**ty "fans" and haters.

If I'm being honest, the setlist from Halifax the other week was as near as perfect as you'll get to "commercial"-era Biffy - pulls all the hits from Only Revolutions, takes the choice singles from Ellipsis and A Celebration of Endings and adds a couple of great album tracks into the mix - but I do miss the inclusion of a few from the earlier days. Stingin' Belle has done its time, but each to their own.

I think they’d be a headliner but go over like Radiohead in ‘17 or The Cure in ‘19

Do you mean sonically incredible?

Oh, Dickinson talks out of his arse. Man's as upper-middle-class as they come, and as much as I think he's a terrific raconteur, you can tell there's a spot of jealousy they've never had a shot at the Big G.

 

But those prices are pretty crap. I've heard a lot of people say "that's not bad" in the current market, and they do put on a cracking spectacle. But I remember seats being forty quid for The Final Frontier Tour and thinking that was steep back in the day.

 

Plumped for Copenhagen. Cheapest worked out at £45 and fees, plus gives the bonus of a city I've not been to. Aware I am fortunate to be in the position to do these things.

Make sure you spend a good chunk of time in Warpigs before/after

Were you referring to Nick Cave as a wasteman too? 🤯

I would change a few but it's not bad. No set will ever be your complete song for song. God and Satan for me is a need.

Stingin' Belle is one of my favourite set closers ever. 

 

Wasn't even great originally for me.

Via Retropop and The S*n. Despite that I’ll share:

 

Harry Styles is said to be in the running to headline Glastonbury next summer. 

According to industry insiders, the former One Direction star has been approached by festival organiser Emily Eavis about headlining the Pyramid Stage at Worthy Farm in 2025.

Sources tell The Sun’s Bizarre column: “Harry would be the perfect Glastonbury headliner and Emily has long wanted him on stage at Worthy Farm, but the dates have never quite worked out.
 

It’s believed the As It Was singer is hard at work on the follow-up to his latest album ‘Harry’s House’ (2022), which topped the UK charts for six weeks and led to a huge run of global shows.

Insiders added: “Harry would be an incredible act to watch on the Pyramid Stage. Glastonbury has a fallow year in 2026, so booking Harry for next year would be perfect.

“It is something the team at Glastonbury are pushing for…

Bloody hell Olivia, Fred and Harry the full pop onslaught subbed by the rock onslaught. That trio of headliners is probably the worst it'll have ever been for me when attending.

If they were half as good as Fax, I can imagine. Must admit that they did slightly underwhelm me back in 2017, but Sheffield on the Opposites tour was a top-ten all-time gig for years for me.
