No-one? Okay - here are a few acts I'd like to see, who I think are reasonable - well, except the first 2 who I doubt will ever play:

40th Anniversary big names: (Over-ambitious headliners, basically)

U2

Rolling Stones

More likely headliners:

Coldplay

Eric Clapton

Elbow

Arcade Fire

Either Gilmour or Waters (both together would be orgasmic)

Some other names I'd love to see in some capacity:

Mark Knopfler

Seth Lakeman

Show Of Hands

David Gray

The Bees

Tunng

I Am Kloot

Robert Plant

BB King

Band Of Horses

Bright Eyes

Two Gallants

Ocean Colour Scene

Seasick Steve

And let's throw in a few light hearted fun type acts for early on the Saturday:

ZZ Top

Rolf Harris

Huey Lewis

The Cars

Anyone else got any suggestions?

Ooh next year's gonna be a right old ear quake. We all know the Stones are playing along with Prince and Radiohead. But what's really exciting is that the entire Sub Pop rosta are taking over the Other Stage on the saturday. And that includes Flight of The Conchords who will be comperes. Broken Social Scene will at last make it and all members will be appearing in their other guises (Feist, Amy Millan, Apostle of Hustle etc) across the stages throughout the weekend. Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers will be there. So will Mott The Hoople. Ryan Adams will end his retirement to play the John Peel Stage and the monorail will finally be up and running just in time. 2010. I'm so there already....

Roll on bloody Monday

I've got the day off and I won't have to pack up and sit in my car for 10 hours in the heatwave.

Roll on Tuesday

Nor will I be feeling Suicidaly depressed for I will be going to Glasto 2010.

I wish our mates wouldn't keep texting how good it is this year. I keep telling them the 2005 deluge is on it's was so leave now but they are having none of it.

right then, where did I put that bottle of brothers?

I'm doing so well people - it's nearly 3.30 on Sunday afternoon and I haven't watched a single second of footage.

It's like a spot that itches, but you know you can't scratch it because it'll only make it worse and open it up.

I'm itching like f**k but the TV remote remains in the corner of the room. Go me.

I have some Chuck Berry on as I type. Rock and roll for the win. Any chance of a bit of Chuck in 2010? (As in Chuck Berry - I daresay that will be much vomitus over the site over the 5 days).

U2

Eric Clapton

Rolling Stones

ZZ Top

Red Hot Chili Peppers

Foo Fighters

Brian Wilson

White Stripes

Paul Weller

Green Day

Chuck Berry

Radiohead

Any of the above would be nice to see next year. Headliner-wise I'd think Clapton, Foo Fighters, Radiohead & Green Day are realistic options?

    • Rotten communication. Actually god awful. Posting sporadically on IG, closing Mordor only to reopen and cause some serious carnage. Left the festival as it got too much for my 16year old daughter. She was devastated about Alex G and Mac…but TV girl could have saved it. Took us until 1220 and already home to find out they might/are playing. Pish.    and on another note, this festival has lost its bastard soul. Gone are the wee tents with local sellers selling vinyl, t shirts etc, now you can buy a 50 f**king eur official T-shirt. The ar*e is truely out of this event now. I went to Porto for the first time last year and it was fab. I love Barcelona and the line up is always stacked, but this festival is a corporate loss take. Hopefully a better day tomorrow.
    • f**king horrendous and seems they couldn’t run an egg and spoon race.  zero info and the crush waiting to get in to see Massive Attack was potentially disasterous. Zero info, no stewards at all and was told that the whole evening was cancelled, when we got to the exit. Because it rained. First time attendee and i’ve got onsay, i’m far from impressed. Scalping bastard taxis asking €37 plus for an €11 fare too. Wonderdul.
    • Rumours are it's called The Lost Tour. In the US in September. Ireland in November (so UK+Europe a good bet around November/early December). 
    • Hey guys, is there a group going for any solo y not goers this year?? I couldn’t miss out once I saw the acts but it’s just me and would be great to meet some others:))
    • After deciding to abandon the festival, here's a few of my thoughts (mostly negative tbf).    On the positive side - was it just me or were there a few more urinals than last year? Seemed to help the queues at the loos a bit from what i saw. Plus they had at least had some foresight and had a few more covered areas in the VIP areas.    Now on the negatives.  The weather was admittedly pretty crap but it wasn't apocalyptic. How the actual f**k are bits of the main stage falling off in those conditions?  Then the communication was awful, there's a load of people who left the site because they were told by security guards/other personnel that there would be no more acts on the main stage this evening.  You have an app Primavera, use it! Yes, there's a shitload going on I'm sure but communication with the festivalgoers should be one of the top priorities. You failed.    And I'm not usually somebody who buys into the whole "oh this is hugely unsafe and it's lucky people weren't hurt" narrative, but all the above led to movements of people that were genuinely unsafe.  Evacuating Mordor entirely (again... Why???) and then having a horde of people trying to get in because they thought they were going to Massive Attack was insane.  And given a lot of people basically abandoned ship around 10.30pm the crush at both the exit to the festival and the entrance to the Metro was pretty dangerous.   Conditions happen, most people will get that....but the contingencies have to be better.
