    The Who were in 2015.
  2. If he was there, he'd probably be on my "to see" list too.

    Weather v Line up

    I remember Earth Wind and Fire urging the crowd to jump and me thinking "I can't, I'm literally stuck in the mud"! Abd watching Richard Hawley up at the Park, it was a slog to get up there and I was practically falling asleep standing up I was so knackered!
  4. Yeah similar here really. I was a bit "meh" about the poster but was also slightly relieved that there are no huge must sees for me - I stressed so much about how to get a good position for Macca! Also with you on the National as the only headliner so far but there are a few maybes - Coldplay will be great I'm sure but not bothered if there's something else I want to see then as I've seen them before. Now just to start stressing about the stage drops and the weather of course! Oh and with you again about Earth Wind and Fire and Art Garfunkel in 2016! Amazing! I saw Adele too but can't remember who my third headliner was (if I saw one at all, I may have just wandered a bit!) Edit - just remembered when I was answering another thread - it was Richard Hawley up at the Park - that was a slog!
  5. 2016 was made bearable for me as my daughter was working there for 6 weeks. So I left my tent with her when I dropped her off and she put it up for me took it down when she finished 3 weeks after the festival ended. So long and short of it, I didn't have to put up and take down my tent, bedding etc in that mud. It was hard work but the music was fantastic that year!
  6. I think initially they took it off to add Faithless who are now on it. So maybe they forgot to re-upload it properly afterwards,

    Weather v Line up

    Tricky because I agree the lineup was brilliant in 2016 but bloody hell it was hard work. But actually, surprisingly there wasn't that much rain over the weekend, it was mostly beforehand. Agree with Northernangel that watching someone in the pissing rain is not fun. And then, last year, 2022, 2019 were if anything too bloody hot. I struggled. So could I go for midway for both please, early 20s, no rain, decent lineup but not stellar.
  8. That's odd, this is what is on there when I click on the lineup tab. (Couldn't get the whole poster but you can see it's there).
  9. If you click on the link on the home page it's missing but if you click on the line up tab at the top of the home page, it's there.
  10. Blimey you're going full on retro there aren't you. I don't think it's likely. But what do I know?
  11. 100% this. Never would even cross my mind. I think it's easy to focus on the things you don't like and feel they're over-represented, but you can only see one act at a time so it doesn't matter who else is playing where. I know that there are places I keep meaning to spend more time at (BBC introducing springs to mind) so I will intend to spend some time there. But I bet come 1 July, I'm back here to say I still didn't get there as I got caught up with loads of other stuff. (Still haven't been to Glasto on Sea either).
  12. Quite enjoying Camila Cabello - nice bit of Samba dancing in the afternoon sunshine. Not so enjoyable if it's pissing down I suspect.
  13. He sounds so like his dad doesn't he, but with a modern slant. Hope to catch him at Bearded Theory so I don't have to worry about making it at Glasto.
  14. Love Yard Act - saw them in Williams Green in 2022 and have listened to them regularly since then. There is something about his voice that just puts a smile on my face. And funnily enough I got to Black Pumas in my playlist today and really liked them too. We must have similar taste so is there anyone else you'd recommend?
  15. Hmm, hadn't really thought about that, but how about the unofficial, second legends slot a la Nile Rodgers. We haven't had all the Pyramid acts named yet. I'm not going to give up that easily.
  16. That would be bloody wonderful!
  17. I'm holding on to the fact that her tour dates haven't sold out so her agent has asked Glasto not to announce her yet. Don't know if that is realistic though.
  18. This was the first poster last year so compare it with the full lineup - 2023 | Glastonbury Festival (glastonburyfestivals.co.uk)
  19. Halvin's is usually the best but too early yet to use as a Clashfinder. But useful to mark any acts that take your fancy and you don't want to forget.
  20. Interesting.... But probably nothing! Edited - I literally looked a minute ago and it wouldn't load for me. But obviously did for parsonjack!
  21. I was pissed off, it was wet and muddy and I was wandering away from the main stages and I came across Lekiddo singing to about 20 people in the rain and it was fantastic! Rejuvenated me!
  22. I fell in love with John Grant, Richard Hawley, Man and the Echo, loved Art Garfunkel, Adele, Earth Wind and Fire. It was a great year. Oh and I remember first coming across Lekiddo too. 2016 was a great year!
  23. I'm thinking very much a Dolly type for me (not the size of crowd though!). But not someone I'd choose to listen to usually but fun, a few tunes that I know well and will be happy to sing along to and I think she'll have a blast which always helps (yes, Jeff Lynne, I'm looking at you).
  24. Yeah she seems genuinely excited - asking "what we should sing together", planning on what she's going to wear. Love it!
