Glastonbury line up not very inspiring

[EachandEveryone]

I guess Im getting old theres four female acts there that I absolutely love but that top line isnt that great, is it? I havent got a ticket so maybe im kidding myself? https://www.glastonburyfestivals.co.uk/glastonbury-2024-line-up-so-far/

Shania has a singing horse?!

Line up looks much too young for me - half of the acts are people my 18 year old DD listens to. Not that I’d be going anyway!

Måneskin will be a great headline act one day... they were there last year - Damiano David is a great live frontman - they're a lot more than a band that won Eurovision.

For me it would be pj Harvey, 2 door cinema club, Bombay bicycle club, orbital and faithless, the breeders, Arlo parks, Paul Heaton.
Yard act and the last dinner party, possible idles and nothing but thieves out of curiosity.

To be honest I'd probably be glad I could have an early night most nights 😂

I thought the same. I don't have tickets to Glasto but am dragging DH and the DC to see Avril Lavigne in Bedford. I'm quite happy with that choice.

This looks pretty good tbh.

Fontaines DC rock live. Would love to see Michael Kiwanuka.

I was expecting that they would have Rate again. Seems not.

You know you’re getting old when the line-up of Glastonbury headliners is announced and you realise you have never heard of one of them & wouldn’t recognise her if you stood next to her in the supermarket queue.

I can’t help wondering if they tried to get Taylor Swift, who is obviously playing gigs in the UK this summer already, but she turned them down. I’m SZA is an adequate substitute, though. Whoever she is. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Taylor Swift is deathly dull. I can't understand the hype.

Very poor lineup.

My DD would love this line up. I’d not heard of SZA but she sold out Hyde park last weekend so she definitely has a big fan base. I’m going to see PJ Harvey in Gunnersbury park and I can’t wait. I actually saw her years ago at Glastonbury and she was amazing. I haven’t been for years but Glastonbury is amazing and the headliners are only a part of the experience (although I have to say Shania Twain wouldn’t be someone I’d pay to see normally).

I'd go for
Bloc Party
Two door cinema club
Keane
Black rebel motorcycle club

But yes super underwhelming

i've never been bothered about the Headline acts - thats not why i go - there are millions of other things on at Glastonbusy that isn't even listed on there or put on the tv - last year i didn't go to the pyramid stage even once - i was off at Arcadia and south east corner mostly ! during the day i was just wandering around exploring sometimes would stop at some stages to see random stuff

the line up is definitely not that important tbh

Clever!

I'm glad I didn't get tickets this year, I would have been so disappointed. I love Paloma Faith, the kids would have loved Dua Lipa and I'm sure Coldplay will be great but not really my cup of tea. Doesn't compare to last year's line up in my opinion.

That performance Elton John put on is nigh on impossible to follow.

there's so so so much more fun to Glastonbury than just the day time bands

And at the same time on the Other Stage you had QUOTSA! How on earth to choose?

The one that doesn't include the domestic abuser Josh Homme.

You mean the one who got sole custody of his kids and had to get a restraining order against his ex.

There's a handful of sets I'd want to see there. I love Keane and Michael Kiwanuka. Squid are great live. I'd like to see Cyndi Lauper, maybe Coldplay. Steel Pulse out of nostalgia for all those free Rock against Racism festivals in Victoria Park at the end of marches in 1980s/90s. Always feel like I should listen to PJ Harvey properly, as she is really talented. I'd watch Shania Twain and maybe Paul Heaton, though whenever I hear him I always wish he was still singing with Briana Corrigan.

Kiwanuka is just lovely live. He has such a gorgeous warm stage presence and such a brilliant voice. He'd be my top choice from that line up.

That's nothing. They never get Flaming Lips at Glasto and they have a real live unicorn on stage.

Oof that line up is 👎. I'd be peeved if I had paid for tickets tbh. Shania Twain and Coldplay? Yeesh

They've already played at Glastonbury. Don't know if they had a unicorn though tbf 🤔 🦄
