Had this discussion a few days ago, only shows to sell out were the first nick cave and strokes shows pre covid Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Something that is bigger and more wide spread that his own home town you troll. 2 hours ago, MEGABOWL said: How has it ‘brought down the levels of what the festival were prepared to book to top it?’ Well usually headliners play something bigger than Brixton Academy as their own single gig before getting a Glastonbury headline spot. Wireless was a day filled with other bands in his own town and Dj Khaled or J Cole aren't topping Glastonbury are they. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sisco Posted 48 minutes ago Report Share Posted 48 minutes ago If new people don’t headline then Glastonbury are going to really struggle in a few years when all the oldies have died off. Coldplay, AM, Radiohead, The Cure aren’t going to keep going forever. Mumfords, Ed, Stormzy, Sza, Dua (and many more in the past) were given shots, some got bigger and some will probably peek at that but it’s about 1. Giving the opportunities and 2. The need to as lots of the bigger acts are doing their own thing nowadays more than ever Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
