Currently after listening to all the options, I'm looking at Basement Jax, Neil Young and Olivia jus as a favourd 3 but missing The Prodigy on other again would be tough. It might even have to be half of each set finishing with Olivia.

You'd miss a Prodigy headline set in favour of the latest fad Disney pop star? 

[Mordy1990]

That would be a pretty impressive line up but ones i would also be happy to miss if there was a clash

I don’t see this being accurate because 1. O-Rod would headline if playing and (related) 2. It’d be all men in the headline and Legends slot which I just don’t see Emily doing when there are strong female artists available and also playing. It would be a massive move away from what she’s said she’s trying to achieve with gender equality in music.

Especially in a year that has had so many fab releases from women. This year should have been an easy year for many female headliners.

you mean Lolla. Acl is only 80,000 people. Lolla is 120,000. Ive been in that field when it was packed for Radiohead in 2008 at their essential peak for arguments sake. The Chappell crowd was larger. 
 

 

At first I assumed the Radiohead peak crowd in the US was probably about 40,000 people to be fair

 

Forgot how much taste has changed over there. Although I must say I am surprised they are your comparison, surely so many headliners have got bigger crowds than Radiohead in the US?

Being the Sun trying not to get too amped up but the thought of all time legend Stevie instead of Disney bubble gum Rodrigo has raised excitement levels massively 

[Gnomicide]

I've just had a DM from a well placed source that Fornication Out Of Wedlock are headlining.

[Crazyfool01]

Wrong thread almost but might prompt an announcement/ denial from HQ 

[steviewevie]

 Neil Young and Stevie Wonder headlining?...Geriatricbury.

I genuinely hate his song Stitches. Has he put out anything better since?

He’s been headlining corona capital and he will headline Lollalpalooza in South America in the spring. He’s supposed to be touring Europe next summer so I’m throwing it in the mix as a headline possibility

I can’t see in a million years Mendes even coming close to Glasto, let alone headline.

As with last yeatr the Stevie rumour was always as a twofer with BST.  And given there's no indication that Hyde Park is happening....

Exactly this

The Scum hacks would surely know that though....which suggest even more that it's another bullsh*t headline grabbing piece based on little but speculation they've grabbed from elsewhere.  Completely normal for them then.

You’d have thought so. Either way you’re right it’s total guesswork.

[fraybentos1]

Pretty sure it's not Stevie but the other names mentioned are right. Olivia obviously headlines, no ifs no buts.

Quote: Olivia is coming straight to Worthy Farm after playing BST Hyde Park, so her slot is being firmed up

 

...for what it's worth...

The Sun is frequently wrong on the details but sometimes gets names right.

 

They said Madonna for last year I think? But had the other 2 correct.

No it doesn’t let’s clear this up …. It chucks a shed load of names at it and hopes mud sticks … the journalism on there is f**king awful and f**k the scum . Glad people have had the sense not to link that comic

What did I say that was wrong? I said they're often wrong but do throw out correct headliners too.

 

Not that is hard to work out that 1975, Neil Young and O Rod are playing.

 

Not every post about The Sun needs to be prefaced by a disclaimer saying 'I hate The Sun'. I've not even read the full article lol.

They throw out the correct headliners because they throw out so many headliners … there is no basis in any accuracy of anything that comes from the sun just because they get a couple of things right occasionally… and f**k the scum 

[Slugy]

As said above, they have not just chucked loads of names and got a couple right; they have taken their info from here and rubbed some spice on it.

 f**k the Scum yes but isn't throwing loads of names at it just how this thread works too when it starts?

[steviewevie]

Yeah The Sun seen to saying same as in here, except the Stevie Wonder bit which was more about 50 pages ago. They aren't just making it up

Yep it is but discussion would be pretty short without that … this thread kind of works toward the target

My first thought when I read this.Though if someone is leaking info to that rag then they need their arse kicked.
