2025 Stage Predictions

[NorthernSoul52]

Always the trick and/or luck of the draw. Don't think I've ever been and not had at least one awful triple-clash.

I’m starting to get a few chunks of info through, which I’ll share here. Jan/Feb tends to be when I get very solid info through, such as the PJ into LCD into Pyramid headliner info I got killed for last year haha! So far all I have is Katy J Pearson and English Teacher defo playing and both lined up for Park. In addition to that, early signs is that Amyl & The Sniffers looking likely for a Park headline slot, but nothing agreed on that front yet. Personally not sure they’re suited to that slot, but who knows.

thanks for the info

@Little Thief thanks. English Teacher on the Park would be great 👌

 

That clashfinder has me wanting to be on every stage 5-6pm Sat though 😂

Can’t see Ice Spice doing it. Seems to have fallen out of favour very quickly and was downgraded from Brixton Academy to Outernet. 
The Prodigy and Biffy Clyro share a guitar tech and seem to be appearing on a lot of the same lineups so hopefully we’ll end up getting both

Biffy aren't at Kendal to be fair and The Prodigy are.

It's times like these where the ability to rewind time, a la About Time would be an excellent skill, and not just because Bill Nighy would be your dad.

Just done a clashfinder combining the last few predictions

Sunday overall would be my favourite for that with the options.

[NorthernSoul52]

Biffy Clyro atop the Other stage against Olivia Rodrigo would be an excellent bit of counter-programming, the more I think about it - especially if they get the full ninety minutes. Assuming three songs from a new record -

 

1 Different People

2 That Golden Rule

3 Living is a Problem Because Everything Dies

4 A Hunger In Your Haunt

5 - - -

6 Biblical

8 Animal Style

9 - - -

10 Mountains

11 Who's Got a Match?

12 Instant History

13 Black Chandelier

14 Bubbles

15 Re-Arrange

17 The Captain

18 Machines

19 Wolves of Winter

Honestly, that's where they'll do best, I think. Saw a remarkable amount of people in The 1975 shirts at Biffy's Halifax gig for some godforsaken reason, and just can't picture them against Fender.

Every time they play Re-Arrange I want to scream. They have so many acoustic songs that are better than Re-Arrange. Much rather God & Satan.

There's something I just can't stand about Re-Arrange one of my least favourite songs of there's

I'll acknowledge I'm putting Re-Arrange there as it is one of their certified hits - so it seems a likely lock.

 

I'd rather it be left off in favour of Justboy or Questions and Answers.

Would mean three in a row cos they’re in Glasgow on the Friday. 

Yeah that's not really an issue. Totally doable. Fingers crossed haha

You can't leave out God and Satan, one of their best easily. That was them with slower lighter songs at their best before the pop mush took over.

I am of course aware of that. If indeed it is Fender. They of course could sub the Pyramid still if Jack White didn't appear. 

 

I would say you're most likely subs/other right now are

 

Paramore, Yungblud, Jack White, Loyle Carner, Chappel Roan, Biffy Clyro.

God & Satan, alas, leaves me cold. An inferior Machines - and ultimately, if there is only room for one acoustic cut, my pick goes there. 

 

But I concur it would likely play well in a longer headline set. Probably gets subbed in for - gulp - Different People.

Personally I can't choose between them but currently right now it would be God and Satan as heard it less.

Big Up for Biffys relatively forgotten less poppy first three albums that basically get forgotten

They were unreal at Barrowlands!!

Great bunch of gigs

I don't think you'll ever get any better Biffy than Puzzle and Only Revolutions. For me anyway, their best two by a mile.

Justboy is a tune.

Absolutely - Questions & Answers is probably my fave shame the first three albums get left out of there normal set - completely.  Im hoping the fact they did some Infitinty land album shows brings it back to there routes a bit for future setlists  

[NorthernSoul52]

Questions & Answers was my first exposure to them. Having seen Justboy live, it is probably the white whale of the early days live for me.

 

Not sure it would figure into a festival show, alas.

[Andre91]

No idea if this is anywhere near likely but thought I’d have a basic go: 

 

PYRAMID: The 1975 / Charli xcx / Snow Patrol 

OTHER: Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds / The Libertines 

 

 

PYRAMID: Olivia Rodrigo / Paramore / TBA (Pulp) 

 

OTHER: Biffy Clyro / Deftones 

 

 

PYRAMID: Sam Fender / Jack White / Alanis Morissette 

 

OTHER: The Prodigy / YUNGBLUD

[Rose-Colored Boy]

don’t think they’ll risk filling the Sunday Pyramid lineup with ‘good but niche’ stuff like Jack White again after 2024. also a Deftones and Paramore clash would be very silly nonsense.
