Did we get some info that Justice are Friday? Or did we just think that because Neil had BBK Saturday and we'd assumed alt-J were Sun?
If not, then I guess at the moment I'd go with:
Radiohead / Elbow
Boy Better Know / Royal Blood
Foo Fighters / Kaiser Chiefs
alt-J / George Ezra
Ed Sheeran / The xx
Justice / Imagine Dragons

Yeah that is a very oddly worded amendment isn't it!
Is it? They can't say they're not actually be playing, because they could be (and one blatantly is). Not sure what else they could have said.

You should have given your ticket to one of the fans waiting outside who really wanted to see them... you were lucky to get that ticket but why go when you don't even like them much???
He didn't have a ticket. He was on a guestlist and got let in by someone on the door checking the guestlist.
People keep complaining he went but in reality if he didn't get in the way he did it isn't like a ticket would have gone to someone else. And even if he did get given a ticket, you think he should have travelled to the show to just give it away?

Green Day are not going to headline the Other Stage at Glastonbury 2017.

That Muncie Girls cover of Maiden's The Wicker Man isn't half-bad, when I think about it.
Reading and Leeds is certainly making a play towards the V Festival generation crowd in a way - or perhaps the new Wireless fandom. Plenty of acts cropping up who would be usual suspects at Wireless.
And yeah, the longer I look at it, the more that other names on there intrigue me..
It just feels like there's so much potential being wasted. I know they've got to appeal to the younger generation, because it is the sixteen-year-olds on their first festival that are associated with R+L.
But there's absolutely no reason why booking, say, Iggy Pop third on the Main underneath Muse, wouldn't be a bad call. Cross-generational appeal, respected live performer, something a bit different from the same EDM-tinted pop and indie-cock-rock that tends to turn up.
In all fairness, I don't think many of the bookings are bad. I just feel there could be stronger artists available.
Presumably, we think that 30STM are going to be announced at a later date to sub Muse? Makes logical sense when their American tour together is going to be split for these shows alone.
Iggy Pop would get a crowd of about 10 people at R&L.
I doubt 30STM will be there. They're probably not gonna come over here just for these shows and there'd be no reason to hold them back. I think Skepta or Chance the Rapper will be below Muse, although Chance doesn't feel big enough to me.

Urgh great. 15 minutes of looking at an empty stage
I'm still kind of expecting some kind of announcement video both played on the online stream and to those at the gig followed by Foos running on at 8 and playing their set.

Shall we mark it how we were going to but use "the top 2 lines" instead of "the top 7 acts"? Only way I can see that would work.

2. Bright Eyes? Too small?

Why the sudden addition of Chase and Status? Haven't heard anyone include them in their prediction so far and to change it this late seems a bit weird....
Because Bastille now appear to be a sub and they were my next choice for an nme headliner.

I can't work it out why they have flown 11 hours to play a small gig to announce Glastonbury with nothing else scheduled over here.
I'm sure there are other things the Foo Fighters can do in Europe that we don't have to know about to make their flights worthwhile. They could, y'know, have a holiday here.

This is the Blackpool grime scene of eFestivals threads. Jonodillieono is Little T.

What about the other days?
Don't think we have anything of any note but Neil suspects Damian Marley may be a headliner due to hearing there's more than one reggae act playing and the fact he's around and not an exclusive elsewhere (I think).

So...
Fri:
Avalanches >> JamiroquaiSat:
Solange >> JacksonsSun:
Toots >> Damian Marley
I'm not sure if I've read all of the posts right, but, is that close!?Edit: JK is a big guess
No apparently the Saturday is Toots > The Avalanches > Solange > The Jacksons.

Jacksons headlining, Solange subbing.
Also Avalanches and Toots that day, tho i'm not entirely sure of running orders and whether there's other acts around them
Wait, what? All four of them on the same day? I assumed Solange, Avalanches and Toots would all be subs.

Aye I remembered that hip-hop ting after I'd posted it. Think I should just stop trying to predict now as it's frying my brain.
But if that hip-hop thing is true I'd guess it just means a few high profile hip-hop acts on that stage, and I'd go with a top 3 of alt-J, Boy Better Know, Stormzy.
Which would probably leave me thinking:
Radiohead / Elbow
Justice / Royal Blood
Foo Fighters / Kaiser Chiefs
alt-J / Boy Better Know / Stormzy
Ed Sheeran / The Weeknd
The xx / Imagine Dragons
Okay I can't stop I've lost my head.
Nailed on really.
