Bmth x Chappell

Eminem x cench

Travis x hozier 

BMTH < Blink

Chappell Roan < LDR

Eminem > LG

Travis Scott = Fred Again

Hozier > Gerry

Cench < Catfish

 

Think we can expect something like this but I can't imagine them booking 3 rappers considering they haven't had a single rap headliner in the last 2 years. Maybe a indie band like Pulp in for Cench? Idk

Could see some of those lower down the pipeline, but... maybe not.

I mean, with Kasabian, feel like Reading>Didcot/Abingdon and Sheffield>Leeds is too close. I thought they might be a shout for it tbf, but yeah, not them now.

 

In any case, didn't look like there were any shared names in 2019 (when I visited Truck) or last year, or maybe I'm just being too lazy to truly scroll through the data and check for sure. At the very least the top-end Truck names are likely out, so that's no to the likes of Courteeners, NBT, Franz, Last Dinner Party, etc for R&L. Some of them played R&L '24 though so that's perhaps not a surprise.

Hope we get Wet Leg

Brie and cranberry? Hmmm, I have my doubts on that, despite the obvious success of the combination. Keep me posted on flakiness. 

I thought the Brie and cranberry would make the pasty soggy but they’ve come out wonderfully! 
 

However, these are the best of the lot. Stilton and Plum & Apple Chutney Angus Sausage Rolls. Absolutely unbelievable.

I’d be happy with that as it would mean BMTH and Chappell Roan on the same day. 
 

I struggle to think of two artists I would be less interested in than Eminem and Central Cee back to back. 
 

Would be a bit bummed to miss Travis. Imagine the change in energy from Hozier’s set to his?

I imagine the crowd for Hoziers set would be awful for him because it will be made up of Travis' fans. Of which, I imagine, very few care about Hoziers music.

Despite not caring for Hozier myself I really do hate to see the energy get drained out of a set by a sh*t audience waiting for someone else.

Yeah, he’ll be on a hiding to nothing if he’s playing before Travis.

Final post from me today about The Great Sausage Roll Experiment. Six different variations, all absolute hits except the Black Pudding & Sun Dried Tomato ones. Not too keen on those (I would eat them but not before any of the others). 
 

Let’s get back to lineup discussion, eh? 😂

 

Travis Scott will pull a Billie Eilish in 2019 level crowd.

unhappy to have not been invited

Central Cee into Travis Scott makes sense because the hype, the material, the crowd demographic. There will be a lot of burned tents that night.

 

Chappel into a rock act with a big show like Foos or BMTH makes the most sense again, because the glammy music fans that enjoy Chappel will enjoy the rock show afterwards.

 

Hozier into Post Malone, again you have Hoziers southern gothic and dark sounds which appeals to contemporary soft music fans, going into Posties white guy hip hop crossovers.

 

This is logical to me, but obviously FR will split the days to sell weekends.

 

FRI// Hozier >> Post Malone

 

SAT// Central Cee >> Travis Scott

 

SUN// Chappel Roan >> Foo Fighters (BMTH)

[OddRon]

Controversial I know but if there’s a particular act that’s gonna attract tent burners, then I don’t want them to be there.
