Richard Ashcroft

Him after James would be fantastic. A nice bit of afternoon nostalgia. I've always thought his solo stuff is good as well.

He'd do what to her?

I don't think he would be very courteous towards her, in regards to her music. He is not one to miss the opportunity to have a pop is he?

You would normally say someone of his statue with his Verve tunes as well would be 4th down on the other but the second slot after James is quite a big slot now and has been someone fairly well known over the last few years

This is true it's been The Hives, Blondie & Frank Turner on the last 3 occasions..

Wasn't it the cribs last year after the charlatans?

Hmm you could be right actually.. I might of been The Cribs before Frank Turner, they were certainly the 2 acts on after Charlatans

[Fred Zepplin]

was the Cribs, I didn't see frank Turner

FUCKING YES! James, The Coral, Richard Ashcroft would be the beat ever! 

The Coral? Are they rumoured too?  I love their new album.  It would be great if they played.

The Cribs were after The Charlatans last year. Frank was second act on Other on Saturday

From the little I've seen she doesn't really mince words herself. Are you sure that his willie is big enough?

I've just realised my mistake after consulting last years clashfinder!

My memory clearly isn't what I thought it was!

[SwedgeAntilles]

Aye, was Charlatans/Cribs/Everything Everything last year

Everything Everything were sublime last year

Over the moon about this.  Had written him off after the Jo Whiley denial so this was a nice surprise. Thought he'd be commanding a higher spot but this should hopefully mean less chance of a clash.

Yup, an unexpected highlight for me.

Super news. Will not miss him!

No idea mate. 

To be fair I would probably watch him if he was there, although I want to watch Chvrches. Problem is I can't see my mate wanting to watch either of them (nor Richard Ashcroft unfortunately). I have said that I am watching New Order no matter what, but I could end up anywhere for the rest of the festival.

i'm not at all interested in his solo work, but those four or so Verve songs he'd undoubtedly play could sway me to catch him if there's nothing else on. after James would be good as there's unlikely to be anything major on that early, but could also see him being about fourth down

His new solo album is great. Nothing will get in the way of this, not even my must sees....and most of them will be Other stage this year so they can't clash. I feel TLSP option is slipping but their new stuff is astrocious anyway.

JP headline set would have been unreal, he's there none the less though so happy enough!
 

This will no doubt be the highlight of Glastonbury 2016.

He doesn't have to be, it sounds amazing!

The more I think the more playing after James makes a lot of sense. He may well want to enjoy the rest of the day/fest in general without being tied to a slot and that slot is longer than the standard hour of time.

@eFestivals is it coincidence that you've got these two bits of info today or are they apropos of something?

Things coming together now. 

coincidence, I think. They came from different directions, with no particular relevance to the timing of both as far as I'm aware.

Ashcroft, and an announcement on Tuesday morning.
