Just added to Parklife's Sunday main stage. So that's Frank Ocean, Tribe and RTJ on the same bill (not even taking into account the other stages).

What time does rtj start ?? I'm in work that day finish at 5. Can get to the venue for 5.30. Reckon I'll be in time ??

No idea I'm afraid. Couldn't even hazard a guess for you yet as they've not been added to the stage splits.

That Parklife lineup is something else. I've been umming and ahhing getting a ticket for months now. Tactically, with such an expected clusterfuck once the days get split out, it would be ideal. It's a Channo away from a 10/10.

When they first dropped the lineup there was a 'special guest' below Jess Glynne which I thought was gonna be RTJ & was held back because of their Albert Hall show. Would put them fourth down I think, so probably starting about 6ish. 

Hopefully they don't clash with Loyle Carner/Sampha but if they are indeed on before Jess I think it'll put them in that territory.

The big ol' question mark over Frank playing isn't great though. Can you imagine if he dropped out and they plugged the gap with Rudimental or Chase + Status?

True dat. I've got an alert on Twickets setup and there's plenty flying about already so at least it can be a last minute decision.

Stormzy is headlining a different stage so I assume he's on at the same time, so it wouldn't be quite as bad as having to see Rudimental or go home. But yeah he's not Frank Ocean.

Dizzee Rascal headlining Friday WH, Goldfrapp Sunday JP, Bonobo Sunday, Crystal Fighters not playing.

These boys headlining JP Saturday night is so on, isn't It?

I'm starting to believe

Does look promising. Of course another act from the lineup (or even an unannounced one) could unexpectedly jump in and be the headliner in the end, but together with JP sub looking like the best place for DJ Shadow to end up I'd put my money on this being where RTJ end up now. Thankfully seeing them at Primavera so won't worry too much about missing them but them headlining a tent is the ideal scenario and I'm sure it'll be ace.

I couldn't tell if I was just predicting it out of hope at first but as each other act has been ruled out it's started to look very likely. Especially with DJ Shadow seeming like he'll be on that stage, too.

Is there anyone else who could realistically even take the slot now? Father John Misty right size but doesn't feel like a JP headliner and would be a poor alternative to what's already on offer.

Obviously could be someone not yet announced but I doubt that, the line-up in that size-region is already pretty stacked.

I can't imagine a funner set at Glastonbury than RTJ headlining the JP. It's gonna be a riot. Or a crushing disappointment when I find out they are mid-Other.

Father John Misty headlining over RTJ would be a travesty. 

[FloorFiller]

If seventeen hours in I'm not feeling Foos set I may make the journey over to the John Peel for this if it's where they end up. Saw them at both Primavera and Glastonbury in 2015 and both sets were incredible so wouldn't mind doing a repeat this year either.

He's gotta be mid-afternoon on a bigger stage, hasn't he?

[SwedgeAntilles]

With the Foos, Alt-J and Warpaint taking three of the other Saturday headine slots it's already looking very rock/indie. Having an act like RTJ in there seems more likely than a FJM or something similar as yet unannounced. 

I'm quietly confident.

Forgot that I'd probably be able to catch some Foos first. Dunno if I'd bother but it's a nice option to have.

Yeah that was one of my reasons for beginning to hope RTJ would be there. You'd expect an electronic/hip-hop act in there considering the alternatives. And now Bonobo and Dizzee are ruled out, here we go.

That also means RTJ would be rammed, which is no bad thing for a JP headliner. Get down there early!

[Spindles]

That would be the dream position for me.  Particularly if DJ Shadow subs JPT the same night.  Get there early indeed.

[Rubber Soldier]

If DJ Shadow is there the same night as RTJ, they've got to get him on stage for a fully live version of Nobody Speak don't they? 

[Spindles]

..or vice versa.

[CaledonianGonzo]

Consensus seems to be that the Shad is on on the Friday.

I can't tell if you're saying this as a joke but he's on the Saturday.

[Friendly Banter]

Having seen both in the past 5 months with documented proof, I can confidently say RTJ and Justice will be the sets of the weekend.
