Acts Touring Around Glastonbury 2016

[Gnomicide]

So not a lot known so far apart from the Manilow (ends just before the festival), Bryan Adams (touring in May), The Cure are in the US up to mid June at least and Lollapalooza Brazil poster is out.

 

Lollapalooza just looks like a continuations of bands who've been doing festivals this year.

John Grant is at the royal albert hall on the 15th of June

[CaledonianGonzo]

Tindersticks touring the UK in May.

[Mouseboy11]

The Joy Formidable being back is good

[FuzzyDunlop]

Paul Heaton and Jacqui Abbott are touring in March.

I'd expect them to do festivals.

Acoustic stage last time... Mid afternoon Pyramid in 2016?

[dentalplan]

Sun Kil Moon have a London show in July but I'm almost certain I don't care anymore.

 

Roskilde share their first announcement this week but their first announcement last year was Lamb of God so there's no guarantee it will be relevant.

Not a bad shout. They've been hammering the touring mind, I think they've been up here half a dozen times in 2 years.

[Badlands]

A bit early maybe but I'm hoping to see They Might Be Giants in Feb 2016. They might get back across the pond.

Also, Format and Abdominal are back together and would be a great booking.

More my wishlist than anything else!!

Can't make it to any of those dates I don't think but I'd love to see them. They'd be amazing at Glastonbury, not sure where they'd play though.

Hurts playing some dates in February and March next year.

I would imagine them returning.

I'm not keen on them but I think they'll be back. Where would they play? JP headliners or too big?

They did that last time, and haven't really grown. I think they'd sidestep onto the middle of the Other Stage billing.

them headlining JP seems odd - were they ever really that big? but yeah, low-mid Other seems about right

Yeah it's a strange one. There seems to be a lot of hype about them whenever they're around but I don't actually know anyone who likes them.

[blue6field]

Saw them in JP in 2011, not really my cup of tea but the crowd was huge and really were in to them

[shoptildrop]

The Joy Formidable being back is good

oh are they?? do like these so they would be a welcome addition

[shoptildrop]

Janet Jackson touring April/May

Massive attack in Jan/Feb so probably too early

Same with Foals touring in Feb

Tame Impala, Hurts, Alien Ant farm (lol) & Kula Shaker all in Feb

Wet wet wet in March

Bryan Adams in May (don't shoot the messenger)

Muse in April/May so surely a winner

 

I just wish FNM would announce their tour but chances of them playing Glastonbury are like nil lol

[balti-pie]

Faith No More wouldn't massively surprise me - they do like leftfield and alternative stuff, and I think Glastonbury could be right up their alley. I'd see them second top of the Other (or ideally headlining the Park, please!)

[Smeble]

A-ha European tour ends May 1st Oslo.

[FloorFiller]

yes! see you in the pit

I would love to see A-ha at Glastonbury!

[congopowers]

Jesus and Mary Chain are touring (dates added for march) and are back in the studio .. fingers crossed

definitely long overdue a return. would make a great JP/Park headliner (or possibly too big for either - i find it hard to gage their size)
