Bit of a tenuous one here... but could the opening par of this be a slip that Peace are playing?

They go to Glastonbury as punters. This I know.

Wouldn't be surprised if that mob of indie artists playing for refugees rocks up on the Park Stage or WG or something. They all hang about in the backstage bit anyway.

Got some bits:

• Afro-Colombian folk choir Canalon de Timbiqui
• Glasto regular rascals Duncan Disorderly & the Scallywags
• 'nother Glasto reg. Some might call him a "house act" - Felix Dickinson

Whitney are doing a AMA on Reddit. Asked if they're at Glastonbury and they said ".....can't confirm yet"

Ah......Nidia Gongora from these lads is a frequent collaborator of Quantic / Ondatropica.  In fact, by my count she's already been at 3 or 4 Glastonbury's.

Might mean that one or t'other project also shows.

Pretty much a 'yes'. Good work.

Yup I've seen em around & thought of that - just 'giving the crowd what they want' read as them playing. 

Probably due an appearence after missing last year anyway.

I'm so there for these lads

I like that. West Holts starting to shape up isn't it?

[CaledonianGonzo]

Given the regularity that she’s on WH with Quantic you’d probably have to assume so, aye – although they’re not exactly a big name, even in Colombian music terms, so not impossible that they could wind up elsewhere in the SE Corner or similar.

Never heard of this band but I'd take this as a self confirmation (via Greg James)

I'm assuming Sunday morning. We all need a bit of this to gently ease us into the final day

that they're playing was spotted months ago - they were about the first ones.

He also played there with Hot Chip in 2008 so he wasn't completely oblivious.

Yeah this. I stumbled into Avalon last year without knowing who was on and they were great fun. Told my camp about them and dragged them all to the midnight gig the following night. Went down as one of our groups 2016 highlights

Other than watching King Gizzard, I can't remember who I have seen at that time.... I think I went ti the tent after james before going to see Dakkabrakka last year.

This year, Ill make a point to watch Hobo.
