2025 Headliners

[NorthernSoul52]

As for Styles, been touting him as a cut above the next young British headliner in my reckoning because he was already in stadiums. But it would be a statement of intent to slap three young guns atop the bill.

[CaledonianGonzo]

He's unquestionably a G Headliner - it's just less certain that he's active at all next summer.

[NorthernSoul52]

Depends if he wants to make the G a one-off launch for the fourth album. Would be a boon to both parties.

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.

Share with me your recommendations, @Superscally.

So, pretty much beer related, but TapHouse is incredible for the ale and Warpigs is Mikkellers main brew pub, with INCREDIBLE ribs if you're so inclined. That's in the Meatpacking District, which is full o good bars and restaurants. 

 

I am jealous.

Lovely stuff, thank you!

No idea if someone has posted this already but 

 

OTATNEVNI is an anagram of Valentino 

 

i.e. Rudolf Valentino 

 

and who sang about him? !?!?! None other than LG - and I don’t mean Liam Gallagher. 

"Dance in the Dark":

In this song from her 2009 album The Fame Monster,  she references the famous silent film star Rudolph Valentino with the lyrics, "Run, run, her kiss is a vampire grin

 

That infamous post above is designed to be leaked to bookies / tabloids to get the odds down for certain bets - that said - it’s quite plausible too.

You need to work on your anagrams.

Hilariously - and this is the truth - I asked ChatGPT to decipher it and :

Green Day are playing a festival in Oslo on the 26th June... I think the question is now are they playing Glastonbury or Download?

[CaledonianGonzo]

Download is more or less confirmed 

[Avalon_Fields]

 

Yeah, pretty obvious wording:

[NorthernSoul52]

Decent catch for Tons, that. 

[Superscally]

Billy Joel 👀👀👀

[CaledonianGonzo]

He'll be at Download along with the rest of Green Day.

"His only show in England in 2025"

Vague enough that he could get away with it. Is Glastonbury 'his' show? that kind of obfuscation. Personally, I think the money's not there for him to do it, but who knows? Seems like the sort of person who could be convinced if Emily etc get to speak to him directly

[CaledonianGonzo]

I think it's worded that way as the other show is in Murrayfield.

Worth noting they seem to do this every year with the strongest rumour at the time - seems to boost the social media engagement and the Download Reddit thinks the mod is a bit of a troll

The Piano Man star will take to the stage at Anfield on Saturday June 21, 2025, one of just two exclusive performances in Europe next year.

 

EDIT - I did not see the above Murrayfield info

One of two exclusive performances (but at least another non-exclusive somewhere)

[CaledonianGonzo]

Nothing remotely ambiguous about

Aside from which - if you look at his schedule and tour history, he very consistently leaves a 2 week gap or more between full shows. With basically no exceptions.

 

100% ruled out from my perspective.
