2025 Headliners

[CaledonianGonzo]

Kevin's made his one and only appearance on the Pyramid at headline time.

Stevie still feels like one of the more likely options.  

 

Not really seen much to sway me from it being a Fred / Eminem / Stevie line-up - with Eminem being the least locked in if the word is that he has the offer on his desk but there's no word on whether he'd actually said yes to it.

 

O-Rod fits for all sorts of reasons but at the moment it's still very circumstantial.

 

She deserves it on merit alone, but we really need a female act topping the bill. With Gaga seemingly unlikely based on touring plans Olivia deserves the bump. In fact it's probably not even a bump given her size and demand across the Guts tour.

I agree she's absolutely a headliner. She's great.  Just at the moment we have no indication of anything she's up to beyond the South American Lolla gigs in March. The Manc gigs also need to be rescheduled too, but again there's no word on when those may be.

 

So at the moment there's nothing to link her to it other than her face fits.

 

Unless that odd AI post the other day was an actual leak of the current state of affairs from within the festival's circle of trust.

I don't know if you're fishing again but there is no way Tame Impala pulls a larger crowd than Fred.  You can't seriously believe that?

Musically I'd completely agree.  Still not close to being a headliner though.  As much as I think Fred is bang average, he's in the zeitgeist so would fit the bill.

I'm not usually one for double headliners but if you insist...

Everything @Superscally says about Fred is fishing, that's the whole gig.

This was semi so. Musically, Tame Impala are operating in rarefied air compared to you know who, but I can't see em headlining.

The Cure's bizarre and cryptic marketing campaign seems to be taking over the net. 

 

Probably a bit too soon for Glasto after 2019 but I wouldn't be surprised if they headline European festivals next summer. 

 

Would be hard for them to beat 2019 anyway.

Even harder for them to beat 1986.

 

No memory of their performance, but the lightning storm was incredible

Plot twist; there was no lightning storm, you'd just triple dropped three tabs of acid.

Green Day are in Germany for two festivals a few days before Glasto kicks off. Surely they will book them this time? They will go down a storm on the pyramid. 

They would but the buzz on that side of the forum appears to be with Download having got there instead.

Don't want to to plough through all this pages, but has the guy with inside info (who announced Dua & Colplay last year, or Guns N' Roses the year before) already released some 2025-news?

Nope it’s up the air between maybe 10 or so acts

Blokey from Tame Impala had a chance in the spotlight during Dua and completely blew it. By far the most boring part of her otherwise excellent set, due mostly to him. That’s the closest he’ll get to the pyramid.
