I struggle to understand why, once the bills are paid and the bank is full,

you wouldn’t want 100k fans in the pyramid field singing your hits back to you. I’d do it for free (if I was her) 

 

She has 65-70k every single night doing that. Not sure an extra 30k and a few million on TV will honestly do much for her now at this stage. She's already the number 1 in demand artist on the planet. 

 

Her gig tickets aren't cheap either are they? This is very much how it works in the music industry. Time = money.

Better than this year by a mile.

 

If we're comparing as a whole two lines yes. You can't really beat getting an artist that can sell 10 Wembley Stadiums out though, is say that's probably the biggest booking except for Taylor Swift the festival can make. 

 

Sub wise Glas this year was bad at it gets and even with Cave, Paramore and Charli would be better. I would Dua Lipa, Coldplay and Olivia would be my mix of the top line there quite comfortably.

Wait. So it’s actually looking like Rihanna / O -Rod / Sam Fender? 

[Skip997]

Booking Charli is a great idea, but has to be as a headliner, whether it’s Pyramid, Other or WH

[UncleJunior]

The ginger one.

[Justcalledtosay]

Noooooooo!!

 

Actually that's fine. Easy night away from the Pyramid.

Yes, no, maybe, I don't know.

I expect she will be booked this year, but she's played frequently over the years in non headline spots.

 

Also way too big now for WH and still too small for the Pyramid.

Could be a hint @K2SO knows something...

 

All I'll say is that I have no links to the festival

Well that's interesting. Saturday or Sunday then

[K2SO]

[CaledonianGonzo]

Sad times when Disney pop princesses headline Glastonbury.  What happened to good old guitar acts?

[Gnomicide]

Kind of interesting that they've gone with a rock looking photo.

Bobby Blotzer has been drafted in to man the kit for this show.

Tbf I did see it noted that Good 4 U was the nearest to a rock song to be number one in the UK since the RATM Christmas run in 2009.

 

So, you know, for those of us that like rock music, take what you can get cos it's all that you can find.

To be honest K2SO said he would bet a lot that she wasn't doing Glastonbury on Friday a while back now. It's a great support cast too. If I was going I'd definitely be happy with those as support. I'd expect her Saturday as it's definitely been booked so you're either doing one or the other.

O-Rod has played the guitar before so.

[CaledonianGonzo]

That's a genuinely interesting / incredible fact.  Struggling to think of a counter to it.

Think the guitar is one of St Vincent's signatures, which is also used by the lead guitarist in Last Dinner Party. Just if you wanted a niche and pointless post.

Haha well there is enough of them on here so might as well add one more. As long as you don't add St Vincent.

They're purely trying to broaden her appeal. She's not really viewed as a rock act (and imo rightly so) showing her with a guitar can help with that spin.
