And nobody ( outside the uk ) is going to be able to watch that in real time when it happens which is a bummer.
this isn't true. I'll be tuning in again although maybe not for Dua. VPN and the "license" aren't hard to get set up.
Duh. But you cant have any faith into people sailing the high seas to watch her. Glasto really needs to change their policy on this and theres a decent amount of demand that if they made it PPV thats a new source of income which the fest really needs.

it's because BBC is public and they think it would subsidizing the rest of the world if they made it available worldwide, but if they put it up somewhere they could get all that ad revenue and it would more than make up for it. Wouldn't expect anything else from the country behind brexit though.

Unless they got cold feet after the livestream they did in 2021 which glitched and they had to open up to anyone. Cause it was with some small company that seemed to have had it together and they dropped the ball. I mean clips go on youtube but its not making the impressions they thing. I mean really I think Dua just tried to ensure her career will be safe in the uk and thats enough by only choosing to do Glasto and not Coachella on top of that.
This Tommy Richman song is about to blow all the way up. Summer anthem. If you're mocking, this feels like the road to a third liner on next year's poster. Major 90s R&B party vibes for sure.
I said a few pages ago he should be on everyone's mock its a great song and its being played all over NYC.

Not sure what you mean by license but when I tried in the past, they detected my VPN and blocked me no matter what part of the UK I set it to.
for the BBC iplayer app you need an account which will ask for an address in the UK. If that address has TV services they paid an annual fee which gives you access to iplayer. Once you have an account that's validated you can sign in with either a VPN or often you can just spoof your location to watch.
I'm sure they've blocked some VPN IPs but the VPN providers are always changing them so it's a game of cat and mouse sometimes. My company has offices in the UK so I always have that in my back pocket if my VPN service has any issues.
She’s headlining Glasto. She’s headliner or bust now. Her album sales literally don’t matter.
The argument shouldn't be whether the new album makes her not a headliner.
The argument should be whether it dampens GV's desire to have her come back 11 months after her album release date after a global tour when they have historically tried to lead off cycles, not end them (and were criticized for that this year).
I was thinking about this. There still hasn't been a single US date announced. If a tour ever gets announced over the next few months, and LA is included, I figure she's out. But if the lack of shows continues, then I imagine it's because nothing gets announced until after the Coachella lineup.
I feel like if a US tour was pending for this summer or fall, we'd have heard something by now. Even if unofficial and just a rumor or leak.

Just announced ACL, but I agree it doesn’t really matter.

It’d be really, really weird to me to wait 7 months to announce a tour after releasing an album, but maybe!
Oh snap. Hmm, I haven't been to Austin in a while. Okay, after checking out the lineup, I'll wait for a solo show elsewhere.
I know I'm spoiled because I just saw Amyl and the Sniffers, Khruangbin, Interpol, Gorillaz, Dua, Tyler back-to-back at Primavera a couple years ago, but damn.
Weak ACL lineup. At least last year they had a few novel acts like Mars Volta, Jessie Ware, and Death Grips. This is just the same names that have been recycled by festivals in the last two years. Headliners are ok though
Does Dua headlining ACL mean anything to us? They shared no headliners in 2023
Not too much. The only headliners Coachella would’ve bothered with from ACL 2023 were Kendrick and ODESZA, both of which were touring off albums that probably would’ve been too old come April 2024.
My main takeaway from ACL and OSL is that I have seriously underestimated Sturgill Simpson's drawing power.
Or they've overestimated, but in fairness he's not really a headliner at either (he's 4th billed at OSL and 5th at ACL), and those slots are generally more like 3-5's on their day at Coachella, where I think he'd fit in fine.

He’s actually third at OSL, so top of his day. The last 3 acts in that spot have been Odesza, SZA, and Tyler who are also all Coachella headliners. I do feel like that is a bit overbilled for him. 5th at ACL would probably translate to a sub at Coachella.

Yeah, but Post Malone is on the bill at the bottom as well, and he's the biggest act on the lineup, which effectively makes Sturgill 4th.
You're right overall though, 4th OSL/5th ACL is probably a sub at Coachella.
Dua’s SNL was mediocre (especially after the stellar Gosling and Wiig episodes), which makes it more impressive that her star power kept audiences tuned in with the largest live and same day audience since October.
As others have noted, there are other indicators that point to star power other than the Spotify Top 10.

Yeah but like I could have seen myself putting him on like the third line of a mock. He's got less than 3M Spotify listeners. I'm sure (hoping?) he has sold some big venues but not really a genre I follow at all. I actually had Stapleton in a huge billing spot on my Coachella mock last year (I forget where but maybe like a #4) so that one makes sense to me but I always assumed Sturgill had a dedicated but more fringe audience. OSL billing floored me. I haven't been so shocked by a billing at a fest since seeing The Stone Roses headlining Coachella. So, I'm dumb which is nothing new.

Country acts always seem under represented on the streaming charts relative to the tickets they move. Not sure if it's more the country demographic or more pop act stream #s being overinflated by 12 year olds who aren't buying tickets.
I'm not saying Sturgill is Luke Combs, but I'm guessing he moves more tickets than his streaming #s suggest.

You guys clearly are forgetting what a MASSIVE FLOP Sound and Fury was. Sturgill is lucky to get billed at all and should probably do us all a favor and just retire imho.

Except Morgan Wallen. Gotta stick it to the libs
But I feel like even his #s out of whack compared to how big he is tour wise.

Historically country fans didn't stream much and relied more heavily on terrestrial radio and physical media. They're finally coming around to streaming but I think their total numbers still might be deceptively down (streaming, digital, physical) because country radio is still pretty big.
