FloorFiller Posted February 2, 2016 Report Share Posted February 2, 2016 Kamasi Washington and Neon Indian that's a shame. was really hoping they'd both be there. only other name who i thought was a big likelihood was Major Lazer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I assumed Major Lazer to be a big likelihood too after seeing his name being rumoured a few times by different people, but not too fussed by that, obviously they might still play but would be considered highly unlikely now I am imagining Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CaledonianGonzo Posted February 3, 2016 Report Share Posted February 3, 2016 American 'jam' band of the Phish-esque sort. Too few 'heads' in the UK. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brave Sir Robin Posted February 3, 2016 Report Share Posted February 3, 2016 Slowdive played a US fest and Latitude in the same weekend a couple of years back so it is possible, if highly unlikely. Bad news about Kamasi. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaledonianGonzo Posted February 3, 2016 Report Share Posted February 3, 2016 yeah. it's not just him that would have to go transatlantic, but his whole big band. I think that spells doom for him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If all those others are correct bar places then it's an unlikely WHs bump anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thing is even if you remove The 1975, you are probably just replacing with Tame Impala. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FloorFiller Posted February 3, 2016 Report Share Posted February 3, 2016 Tame Impala will be on Pyramid if they're playing. Bastille, The 1975 and another for Other subs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bastille, The 1975 and another for Other subs I agree, I was just saying if anything did change, they will be playing though. I'm doubting a bit they'll be at Reading though, I wonder if it's seen by FR as a festival for them? Surely they aren't going to share acts with another fest and have them sub?

Tame Impala? i think they'll only appear at one of Glastonbury or Reading. could go either way really. definitely don't think they'd be overlooked by FR though as the new album has been huge and they're clearly a popular band Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bumped into them in the crowd during Cyderdelic's set and they gave me a tinny, toke and a free CD - great guys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might rule out a few names. Whoever they are, sign them up for Glastonbury on their name alone: Flosstradamus, Broccoli Samurai, Fetty Wap, Hippie Sabotage...and the already mentioned String Cheese Incident.

Time Being Posted February 3, 2016 Report Share Posted February 3, 2016 Tough go with Kamasi being there, but not as bad as 2014, when they had Flying Lotus, Cut Copy, and Booka Shade. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Acid_Haze Posted February 4, 2016 Report Share Posted February 4, 2016 I know this is a completely weird out-of-the-blue bit of speculation but looking at Longitude festival past lineups from since i've noticed that at least 2 out of 3 headliners tend to play glastonbury in the same year. With Major Lazer ruled out, according to this odd pattern it makes both Kendrick Lamar and The National more likely for glastonbury as those are the 3 headliners for longitude.
