Nat42 Posted July 30 Report Share Posted July 30 Any thoughts on next year yet? Seems like K-pop might be a regular booking? Bit of an eclectic mix this year with classical & country days plus Kylie will be interesting to see what they come up with Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless they're feeling really wild in how popular they are. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they could be a shout for Finsbury Park, but selling out 2 nights at the O2 last year and the likely popularity boost from being Taylor Swift's support act could make them a shout. I was going to suggest Muse for this. Toying between whether I'd expect them at Reading or at this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some very good suggestion's there. Would be pleased to see the below Paramore or Blink 182 - (Feels right and likely cheaper then Slam Dunk) Depeche Mode - (One of the few UK festivals that will pay the money) Sam Fender - (Saw him open on the unbranded Dylan/Young date and must be a tick box gig to go from opening the main stage to headlining it) I also would not be surprised if Muse turned up here. Chuck in a K pop act and some onelike Timberlake and Bobs your uncle. I wonder if having a country star will become a thing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scatteredscreens Posted August 20 Report Share Posted August 20 Depeche Mode won't be active in 2025. They're off their touring cycle. Can't see blink 182/Paramore doing it, not enough of a draw. It'll be a lot more legacy acts too with probably a k-pop act as that seems to be the move for BST. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blink 182 and Paramore could easily do BST with a solid undercard I reckon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I think the Eras tour has sent Paramores stock through the roof. I think they would be a very smart booking for BST and the band. I was shocked by how well they were received when I saw Taylor at wembley. Their set went down as well as if they were the headliner.

Paramore will want a long break after the never ending tour. They always deliver live though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed. They seem happier in themselves, they went down well at Eras shows generally and those shows will get them a decent crowd. So I think there's a strong possibility of them being about next year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because they haven't played shows since last October but do have shows in December, which by default is taking a year-plus off. I guess we'll get more of an indication soon tbf.

From a lurk on the Paramore Reddit, apparently Hayley told fans recently that they're working on a 2025 European tour. So this could put them in the frame for... something somewhere. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
