2025 Headliners

[Euphoricape]

Basement Jaxx playing Latitude next year. Other or West holts headliner maybe?

[NorthernSoul52]

Yeah. I will say that the brief period Healy was linked to Taylor Swift certainly did no damage to their commercial appeal.

Wasn't there word that Kasabian would be somewhere on the bill this year, off the back of their Woodsies slot last year?

 

*I may have imagined that* 

Don't recall anything other than rumours. For what it's worth I reckon they'll be playing. Definitely not Pyramid headliners.

Other would be a stretch. All those bangers would sound great on West Holts though.

Yeah definitely up for that. 
 

Was watching their 2005 set on YouTube earlier and during Lauren Laverne’s introduction she talks with surprise about there being a lot of flags in the crowd ! How far we’ve come.

It wouldn't be Glastonbury without the flags, these days.

if you were guaranteed a ticket but not allowed to bring a flag, would you do it. ( that goes for everyone )

No mate from a couple year ago 😂

I wouldn't be surprised if The 1975 do have a stadium show or two alongside a G headline spot, to be fair. Multiple-night sales for The O2 and AO Arena earlier this year suggest they could handily do Tottenham and Old Trafford Cricket Ground if they wanted.

I reckon they will announce some stadiums off the back of glasto ala Dua Lipa

 

maybe something like trnsmt as well this year

Aye, absolutely. Feels very feasible.

 

Though I will say, when it came to both of those arena runs, the only shows that didn't seem to shift within the first few days completely were the ones in Scotland.

The flag epidemic is becoming a right pain, it’s even starting to invade WH, most of them are shite anyway. Should be banned. So yet again I’m with you, great idea.

[NorthernSoul52]

Only flags allowed should be ones with Monty Python quotes on, new rule.

[Talcroft]

I actually thought there were fewer flags this year, although an increasing trend for them to be absolutely gigantic on a shorter pole which is super annoying.

Would love this to happen. Rumours of a  European tour next year

Feels like they could do it with them getting on a bit now, dont know how much longer they will be able to do it for, but i think they will keep going till they drop so who knows

Have a friend who is close to someone close to Fender camp. Word on the street is that they’re gearing up for a very noisy launch of the new album and are expecting it to take off. Feels like it’s perfectly timed for a Pyramid headline slot?

Not sure there will ever be a better chance for him. It's not that I expect him to spectacularly drop off, but it just feels like the perfect storm to have him do it.

100%. They’re planning to try and properly crack America cause he didn’t get to do his proper tour out there because of Covid and health reasons. Very much feels like Arctic Monkeys doing their brilliant 2013 set and then hitting their mark in the US. 
 

plus War on Drugs lead producing the new album. 
 

Chuffed for Sam Fender as he’s a proper home grown talent whose music carries very important messages and have seen him live a few times and he’s always impressive. 

[NorthernSoul52]

I was discussing this the other day. I reckon that if he doesn't get America on this record, he'll pack it in there. He's not exactly lit it alight so far, for one reason or another.
