that might have some sort of link with Boomtown being run by Bristol geezers, perhaps....?

 

I thought it might have been haha, especially after the Boomtown night at Lakota as well recently

It's one the lineups of it I've liked the most but there is only about 4 acts on it so not for me. 

Same, I think this is the first year there's been more than 2 acts I'm interested in. There's about 7-8 this year so I'm going to give it a go as the festival itself looks amazing and who knows I might be interested by some of the stuff on there by the end of the weekend

i wish i liked anything from the lineup because the festival itself looks great, but the music... gah, just the opposite kind of stuff i'd want to pay for a festival to go and see

Crowd dressed up as fat, balding, middle aged men.

I am the same really, stuff I do like isn't a must see. It's a bit like Bestival for me but that usually has a few more I'd see and want to see more.

Expect all of Werchter additions to be at glasto (bar TDCC)

[Brave Sir Robin]

South of Spain, Glasto weekend:

Old Rod announcing new dates but leaving that weekend clear. Little Saturday evening set in there I reckon.

The Lumineers release a new album tomorrow. 

I must admit I really enjoyed their set at the festival in 2013. (Just watched on YouTube and looks like they got a massive crowd as well)

I'd imagine tour dates will soon follow so wouldn't be at all surprised to see them back in June.

U.K. Tour in April, then onto the US tour...

.. But back in Italy for the 21st June. I'd say very likely

 

 

edit.. Ah I'm wrong, 20th July. US tour finishes on 19th June

Still wouldn't rule them out but I think they're a banker for Reading, their Norway date rule V Fest out.

Taj Mahal just tweeted that he's looking forward to open air gigs - nothing booked in June but in France on 9th July. Long overdue a return - loved him in '98.

Checked the date

[thewayiam]

Seen Band of Horses have a date in Norway over Glastonbury weekend, it's on the Friday but I reckon if they are going to be there it'll be the Sunday. 

[PabloCoke]

Ween are touring in the states would love em to hop over!

[Badlands]

This Destroyer band/fella that was mentioned in one of the threads a few months ago, having given him/their last album a good listen, I can confirm that I like the cut of their jib. Have they played before? I note they’re at Koko at the start of June and playing a festival the week before.

I don't believe they ever have. High on my wish list for this year

[Tuna]

Missed Destroyer at Pitchfork this year, so I have unfinished business on this tour. As with everyone, put him on the Park, please.

[Badlands]

Admittedly I only know that last album but they seem right up my street. His voice can probably divide some but I like the fragileness of, a bit of Oberst in there.

I do love an album that reprises songs throughout as well.

Oh, holy shit, listen to Kaputt. It's from 2011 (maybe 2010? I forget), and it's just magical.

Kendall Calling, one festival I definitely won't be going to this year

[stocky3000]

Cant really play it much safer can you really?

Would take madness for a nice afternoon on the pyramid and Hives again in the exact same slot as a few years back to really get it going

[stocky3000]

Also does Rodigan have any form of permanent residence he plays everything and anything going

Noel G headlining Victorious, Kendall Calling and Y Not now, whatever happened to his massive ego?

Only playing festivals where he's a headliner, albeit smaller ones, suggests it's still there imo.
