Who's Touring Around Glastonbury 2017?

[Andy0808 v5]

I'm extremely confident for RTJ now. That new 2100 song is unbelievable.

 

Getting nervous that Gambino hasn't been announced for anything yet.

Sleater-Kinney have updated their profile pic on FB. It could mean nothing at all, or it could mean.... A TOUR, AHHHHHHH!!!!!!!! Or again, it could mean nothing, who am I to say?

new album? wasn't really expecting it so soon but been almost two years since the last one so not hard to imagine they could have another on the way

[BlackHole2006]

No Cities was a pretty flawless album. Would be stoked if they played third down on the Park on Fri. Would give me enough time to run over to Radiohead.

is there a reason for Prophets of Rage's removal (aka info that they're not gonna be there) or were you also not aware of them being added in the first place?

yep, it looks just about impossible that they're going to play.

Was sure major lazer were an other headliner against RH but obviously not, announced as a R and L uk exclusive

Yeah but we never thought Disclosure were going to be at Reading this year after the Glasto announcement and they were. It very much gives The Prodigy more of a chance though.

Not bothered either way about them which is the problem, too many potential Other headliners about next summer to waste the Friday night.

Well there goes the only Other headliner I had any hope in

And that's too bad if true - would've been a fun addition

If you want to hear Killing in the Name Of, hear rock set at the Kasbah or somewhere instead of them destroying it.

Mistachuck must have had his wires crossed..

I wonder why R&L don't hav exclusive tags around At the drive-in? You think they definitely would if they weren't playing elsewhere

Was about to go check up on this. Im sure there's another UK festival I'm forgetting about that they're more likely for, but that would be incredible

There's more being announced for DL on Friday, if that didn't happen then I'd begin to think it might be possible

I'm not sure if they'd be considered too big but could they not also headline 2000 Trees like Refused did this year?

If they'd be booked for The Pit then there is a chance but their fee might stop 2000 affording it.

Kiss have dates in Europe up until the end of May. Not sure where they would fit on the lineup. Sub for the Foos maybe?

[Djb.com]

No exclusive on Bastille either, wouldn't be surprised if they turned up now

There's danger of them becoming a house band. I think they've played the last 3/4 years and haven't released anything since a fairly high profile slot last year. 

[FloorFiller]

can't see Bastille returning - think they'll end up at V or this new Glasgow Green festival or anywhere else rather than Glastonbury again. even though they've got a new album out they played most of it this year in a prominent position

I doubt their collective ego would accept anything other than a headliner.

They won't be a V lol. Glasto probably is a no but it's not out of the question.

Kiss' egos won't let them play somewhere and not headline I would have that. Plus they have always been ALL about the money so Glasto would be a no go anyway. 

Great minds
