SOAD Posted March 30, 2017 Report Share Posted March 30, 2017 Im really happy with the lineup so far, however was a bit gutted at the lack of Lady Gaga. Also based on festivals around the time was really hoping for Jimmy Eat World, Belle & Sebastian, Editors, Gogol Bordello, Against Me!, Cage the Elephant, The Kills, Crystal Fighters, White Lies, Lana Del Rey, Pixies, Enter Shikari, The Hives and Don Broco. I have to admit some of them weren't that likely to begin with but still hoping for some to be announced. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the wonderwhy Posted March 31, 2017 Report Share Posted March 31, 2017 I'm guessing Crystal Fighters have been held back because they're starting to flog tickets for their big Ally Pally show tomorrow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnny-yen Posted March 31, 2017 Author Report Share Posted March 31, 2017 I wonder if one of the missing acts is the 'secret' Other Stage Friday opener? Richard Ashcroft or Liam G could probably fit that bill. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CaledonianGonzo Posted March 31, 2017 Report Share Posted March 31, 2017 Kevin Carter and the lads definitely fit with the MOR aged Britpop demographic that the slot seems dedicated to serving. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The60ftOctopus Posted March 31, 2017 Report Share Posted March 31, 2017 The Bootleg Beatles retweeted the Glastonbury lineup which I thought was a bit off. So it's safe to assume they will be there, probably with a Sgt Peppers anniversary set. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah sounds about right, reckon he'll get another slot too and probably do a Slummerville set. 3 hours ago, johnny-yen said: I wonder if one of the missing acts is the 'secret' Other Stage Friday opener?

I doubt Liam again, Richard maybe but I think he'll be added. 2 hours ago, Martin Ashford said: A second date at Birmingham was added yesterday morning so I bought tickets, That's why they would hold back.

So disappointing if they arnt there, also makes the whole waiting til this summer for end shows decision baffling to say the least! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tartan_Glasto Posted March 31, 2017 Report Share Posted March 31, 2017 Had my fingers crossed for You Me At Six, can't make their Glasgow date and they had a Glastonbury shaped gap in their schedule. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
