I suppose the one thing in Glastonbury’s favour is that she seemed to be coming over just for that, as she already had festivals in America in between Primavera and Glastonbury. I don’t really expect her to play as a one off but she might be more open to playing Glastonbury with the exposure it brings.

It’s a very strong lineup but for me this is still the best Primavera lineup for quality/depth

Yeah most of the unknown stage acts will probably be on the Pyramid, so it’s really only the top end of the Pyramid that’s looking a bit sparse at the moment.

Pulled together a list of all acts who were on this year's poster who have been announced for other festivals next year or have rescheduled tour dates around Glastonbury: Pyramid Diana Ross, The Specials Other AJ Tracey, Blossoms, Declan McKenna, Fatboy Slim, The Lightning Seeds, Mabel, Metronomy, Nadine Shah, Pet Shop Boys, Sam Fender, Skunk Anansie, Supergrass West Holts Brittany Howard, Greentea Peng, Isley Brothers, Kano, Kelis, KOKOKO!, Nubya Garcia, Thom Yorke Tomorrow’s Modern Boxes, Tom Misch & Yussef Dayes, TLC John Peel Beabadoobee, The Big Moon, Burna Boy, Charli XCX, Editors, FKA twigs, Glass Animals, Jehnny Beth, The Jesus and Mary Chain, Primal Scream, Tones and I The Park Baxter Dury, Big Thief, Caribou, Fontaines D.C., Goldfrapp, Khruangbin, Manic Street Preachers, The Orielles, Sampa the Great, Squid, Tinariwen Unknown Stage Candi Staton, Crowded House, Elbow, Groove Armada, Herbie Hancock, Imelda May, Rufus Wainwright, Sinead O’Connor, Suzanne Vega, The Waterboys I've probably missed some acts and there's also acts like Dua Lipa, Anna Calvi and Happy Mondays who have dates for early 2021 but nothing for the summer yet.

Looks like she’s in Birmingham on the Thursday of Glastonbury weekend and then nothing else until July. Very happy with that, especially with none of the other big Pyramid acts seeming nailed on.

I'm not sure if anyone else has seen this but some people on twitter have decided that Aaron Dessner's been inciting riots in America based on a video that definitely isn't him and now he's getting a lot of abuse over it.

I'm quite glad I still have my annual leave now

If anyone has a spare six hours to kill and really likes Sorrow

Huge Ben Swain energy from Grant Shapps today

I think they’ve just really overdone it in Scotland recently. In the last few years they’ve played The Hydro twice, Glasgow Summer Sessions and Aberdeen with largely the same material. I think they’re definitely big enough to headline but they are a bit smaller than most of the recent headliners.

The reaction on here when Arctic Monkeys 2013 set was voted as one of the best headline sets would be entertaining.

I thought the same but I listened to it again yesterday and it was much better than I remembered. Still not on the same level as Emotion but a good listen nonetheless.

I haven’t heard the new one but I’ll be surprised if it’s better than I Like It When You Sleep, which seemed to strike a good balance between trying out different genres and still mostly having great songs, even if a few could have been trimmed off the end. There might be more songs like this on the new one but I want a full album of stuff like this

Most of Thom Yorke's tour dates have moved to June/July 2021.
