Ben Miller Band playing Avalon Stage. With that name I thought they'd be a comedy troupe who do a cover of 'The Joker', but apparently they play "North Mississippi Hill Country blues, Appalachian mountain music, bluegrass, or pure country" and have toured with ZZ Top. Added to the playlist.

Add me to the Interested list also.  Really enjoyed the Mississippi All-Stars a couple of years ago (and just heard some bluegrass watching Justified)

I think I will also check out the Ben Miller Band.  That's whats great about this forum, bands that you would not normally hear about or give a second thought to (because of ignorance) are described and it tweaks your interest.  The Avalon is also one of my favourite areas, so hopefully it fits nicely within the schedule.

Loonaloop self-confirmed here

Which is great as I've not seen them since last time I went to Glasto. 

[CaledonianGonzo]

Think that Loonaloop might be confusing Dagobah and Endor tbh.

[Primalcrux]

Hmm, I always thought that Disclosure/LCD > Bastille> Two Door Cinema Club would be a nice fit, but I guess that's not possible anymore

Was there not info a few weeks ago about Catfish playing third down on Friday Other stage?

No, there was just info of them playing 3rd down one day and Friday/Sunday are only one's possible. It's looking a little like Catfish and The Lumineers 3rd down though, the latter do have a lot of fans but I don't expect subbing. 

Remember it was said ELO were doing a sunset slot by some reporting but its actually the Legenda slot.

LCD Soundsystem, Bastille, The Lumineers

New Order, Chvrches, The 1975

Bring me the horizon, PJ Harvery, Catfish and the Bottlemen.

How very exciting!

Still wouldn't surprise me to see Bastille 3rd on the Pyramid

Ah, that makes sense. Friday for Lumineers, Sunday for Catfish then. 

[teamcampesinos!]

Is it just a coincidence The Lumineers are playing third down on Sunday at Latitude..? I'm sure they are playing a lot of festivals and it's not inconceivable that they got two confused. Third from top seems far too high for them.

Looking likely to be these I reckon. Catfish into PJ on Sunday will do just fine. Not greatly bothered by the rest though.

Can be have Y&Y below below Catfish, great run.

Where did Catfish & The Bottlemen come from? I didn't think they were playing, which is a real shame, a great set last year.

There was some info the other day from someone that they are 3rd down.

Yep! Looks good almost the exact same as last year! Only one place to be to kick things off on the wednesday and thursday. Packs out the rocket lounge, its usually the best of the mik shows!

[sisco]

Dunno who that is, but someone here may do

[CaledonianGonzo]

Just looks lile the bloke making a joke that a phrase in one of his tweets sounds like a band name.

Well I'm glad I said I never heard of them/it/whatever

[Thevorpalblade]

Was excited.... '49 pages of self confirmed!'. I wonder who's appearing now?

Am disappointed.... Turns out that most of this is 'chit-chat'.

Perhaps, next year, we can have two threads.... "Self Confirmed" and "Chit-Chat About Self Confirmed".

 

[CaledonianGonzo]

Chit Chat Disappointment are on John Peel just after Downwind Of A Vape.

so this thread should be only posts about self confirmed acts, and then we should create a whole new thread to talk about said self confirmed acts? that seems dumb and far more annoying than having one thread for all of the above

 although maybe in the future the OP can take it upon themselves to make a list of all self confirmed acts in their first post for people who only want to see them and none of anybody's excitement towards the acts

Sorry, but you've gone off-topic there. If you want to discuss that sort of thing, please make another thread.
