That FRidaz Pyramid run would be amazing - bar Elbow. Shame about the repeated Jam + RH clashes.
Sat is all about the West Holts - just look at that back to back of Toots and Avalanches - amazing. Solange is not my cup of tea but I'd prob just stick around and have some dinner and wait for the Jacksons.
Sunday is the weakest for me personally... Emeli Sande and Gaga are the only must sees. Maybe Run the Jewels too. Craig David would just be for fun.

Nuce prediction!

Are Maccabees being totally wrote off for the Sunday now?

Is there any reason everyone thinks Jamiroquai will be on the Friday and not Sunday? That Radiohead clash would be a killer   

Jamiroquai are playing London 02 on Friday n Saturday. It's Sunday or nothing now for them.

Its not inconceivable but is unlikely as the only day they can do is the sunday and would mean them playing 9/10 days. Also a question over where they would fit in if they did play given they don't have any new material to promote. Personally, I hope they are there, but if they aren't then I have one less clash to worry about as I'm seeing them at their final 2 shows.

I think most of those predictions were originally based on Kraftwerk  only being able to play Sunday. Now that's been ruled out I don't know of any reason, not to say there isn't one 

Have Kraftwerk been ruled out to play Glastonbury?

This really is fantastic news, fingers crossed for them for the Sunday

Neil has heard no UK festivals for them this year.

[SOADOWN]

I see a lot of people predicting Lady Gaga to sub either Foo Fighters or Ed Sheeran, but I really don't think it's happening. Even though her latest album hasn't even been that successful in the UK, she's still way too big not to headline. It's actually really weird (and impressive) how she cemented her status as this pop icon so early in her career. 

And considering Ed Sheeran is probably the Sunday headliner, my guess is that she's not playing Glastonbury at all.

Yeah probably not, but I won't fully believe she's not gonna be there until the lineup is out - she's given too many little hints for me to fully discard her being there at all.

what I heard wasn't quite that explicit, but logically, what I heard should end up meaning no UK festivals this year.

[balti-pie]

Judas Pruest are magnificent, and I'll happily watch them on any stage, in any slot. Almost certainly alone within my group of friends, but that's absolutely fine with me. They'd best play Painkiller though

I think it's looking very likely. And i still don't have a ticket. Arghhh. Although i have got tickets to see them in November in my home town of Manchester so at least there's that. 

Wasn't that bothered about missing glasto this yr but with Radiohead n foos already confirmed and quite a few SR's from other acts I like, I'm starting to get very down. I hate how the one year you don't get a ticket they bring out Radiohead and God himself, Dave Grohl. 

If Jamiroquai end up playing west holts Sunday and i don't get resale ticket, I'm going to be on a serious downer for sure.

I will take this

Me too - if the final lineup looks mostly like that, it'll have the makings of vintage. And that's before the rest of the festival is known. It's a relief to know at least that Jamiroquai are in London on Friday and Saturday eve, so no car crash clash with Radiohead.

[fingers_mark]

That prediction looks great! Would take half of that.

No Future Islands? Playing Hurricane in Germany that weekend, and a Cologne show on 27th, so hopefully a Friday or Saturday appearance.

Exclusive elsewhere (Green Man or one of those other similar small fests).

Yeah.

Flaming lips are in Hull on the Saturday too

[Mezhyp1]

And Jamiroquai can only play Sunday 

[Gucci Piggy]

Well that was bad.

[jparx]

 

Good try Matt.

[FuzzyDunlop]

Does anyone else think we are due for a big surprise or 2 on the line up? I remember in 2011 being shocked in a good way at Morrissey & QOTSA being there.

I have a feeling something or someone big & unexpected could turn up in a prominent slot. Probably sunday other headliner. I don't quite buy Green Day for some reason. 

[henry bear]

Must try harder.
