Is that your observation or you've got a source? As with @4AssedMonkey I've been pleasantly surprised by the quantity of folks quite a bit younger than me, it's really noticeable on some of the seetickets coaches I've been on.

Alex DeLarge Posted May 20 Report Share Posted May 20 I've been listening to both her albums again this week. I'm surprised how affecting I find this song considering I'm not the target audience at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly. I think Dua Lipa's relative lack of dates this summer could see something a little more custom, and Coldplay will tailor a few surprises like they do. But SZA screams "business as usual" to me. That's fine for other festivals! But there's a reason the best-loved Pyramid headline sets tend to be the ones where it isn't "just another show", so to speak. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaledonianGonzo Posted June 3 Report Share Posted June 3 SZA's set will probably be similar to what she just did at Primavera - but there's definitely potential for guests. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If she does the clip will be on YouTube. Thats good enough for me, Justice on WH is where the party will be at. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mouserat Posted June 4 Report Share Posted June 4 If you've donated to the Clashfinder website you can see the stats for how much an act has been highlighted and without giving anything away, SZA is not getting a lot of love on there. Enjoy her music but think it's shaping up to be a real dud of a headliner. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't something similar happen for Kendrick two years back - and before that for Stormzy? i.e. Clashfinder demographics don't tell the whole story either Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At festival me often looks at my clashfinder and thinks that sitting at home me is a right idiot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Acid_Haze Posted June 4 Report Share Posted June 4 She's gonna be amazing - so glad they've given her 1hr 45 mins. Longer than Arctic monkeys, Kendrick and Billie got in recent years! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And maybe it's something a lot of people don't even do at all, especially with the app existing now. Did check as was curious and Kendrick did alright in the top 10 most highlighted that year. Stormzy is lower down (22nd) but SZA has ground to make up as she's not even in the top 50 atm. Hope she does get a good crowd and smashes it as I've enjoyed her stuff since the early EPs. And she's clearly got a stage show that's Pyramid-worthy in scale based on reviews of her last tour. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kugglaw Posted June 4 Report Share Posted June 4 Think demographically the audience for artists like SZA, Kendrick and Stormzy aren’t the type to browse niche web forums or fill out clash finder. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They had the smallest headline crowd I've been at personally, but polar opposite demographics to SZA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I skipped The Who and Mumford, so no idea if they were good gigs. Kasabian were pretty good and Sheeran hasn't disappointed yet, so you should be up for an epic evening - enjoy!

But then again, the rest of the lineup on the Sunday is a bit iffy too. SZA is definitely becoming a possibility for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
