Love the speculation about what the towers are for, I’m here for it. To throw a spanner in the works they could be for Dua Lipa rather than Coldplay. Recent interviews imply that she is treating this as a career defining gig and she really understands Glastonbury. So I think it’s possible that it’s her going large with the production this year. -

Might be worth noting that after watching Coldplay at Big Weekend and trying to send friends a video of their song "People of the Pride" this came up. Incredible drone video. First one starts at 44s in but the main one is 1:27 (although they're clearly using a few). But if they'll be used for Coldplay anyway then the festival may as well use them themselves too? -

I've convinced myself it's Friday just as it's the last possible time they can drop the full line-up in May and why wouldn't they keep us waiting as long as possible? More realistic guess though is probably Wednesday 6pm. -

After being disappointed by the initial release the lineup is now looking excellent and it’s really hard to choose! Squid: Houseplants LCD: Been a fan for years, been at Glasto at the same time as them and I’ve still never seen them. I feel their songs will hit different now I’m also over the hill. Barry can’t Swim: to see what all the fuss is about. My seven year old enjoys his music. Alas, she won’t be there! Johnny Flynn: A Larum is a nostalgic classic for me. I just hope he plays some of it! Hagop Tchaparian: Reminds me of 2010ish James Holden in a good way Bonus mentions to Justice, Jamie XX, Alvvays and Lankum. -

Because of my profession I don’t get to go very often unfortunately. 2011: we had a big crew going and camped up near the Park after a few years in Big Ground. I was still in the midst of a PhD and on the tail end of lots of travelling for research and fun. Life just felt very carefree. I made some bad choices (QOTSA instead of Beyonce), but this is a running theme of my Glastonbury experience. The Thursday just felt completely magical wandering around with an eclectic mix of friends. 2009: My first. After growing up in Leeds and making the annual rite of passage to the festival a few times Glasto just hit different. I was totally in awe of the place and had a great group of friends there. Neil was incredible and although I barely remember the evening I’m told we had a great time at Prodigy (it should have been Blur!). 2019: My first back after a long hiatus made a little harder because of some tough volunteering shifts in the heat. It was a good friend’s stag which made it special, if a little OiOi, although I missed some fun due to working. Still, walking over to Pyramid after the heat of a long shift while Vampire Weekend played into the sunset was a magical moment, and although I’m not much of a pop fan, I loved the Miley Kylie double header. Also, I finally got to see the Cure! 2010: we had the smallest crew this time. This was before I lived in Asia and the heat really killed me. The Flaming Lips had been my favourite band for years at that point and I was a bit bummed everyone else wanted to see Gorrilaz. I went solo and making friends with the people around me and singing along is an abiding festival memory and one of my all time favourite gigs. Missed Stevie Wonder and LCD and regretted both. I’ve still never seen the latter so I’m hoping for good things this year.
