Lemon Jelly would be awesome. I'd like to see some of the following, more than 10 but some of them might be quite likely.

Jack Johnson - Friday afternoon Pyramid or Other Stage slot

Arcade Fire - On the bandstand for all I care, just as long as they play

Rolf Harris - Pyramid, Jazz World was too small for him

Florence and the Machine - Other Stage

Morrissey - Under one of the Pyramid headliners, with a Marr team up :P

MGMT - Other Stage sunset slot

The Flaming Lips - Sunset slot somewhere

Mos Def or Talib Kweli - Jazz World headliners (as Blackstar) like Q-Tip this year

Justice - Other Stage, perhaps under Daft Punk/Orbital/whoever gets the Sunday dance slot

Beck - Jazz World headliner

Damian Marley - Sunday Pyramid

Moby - Other Stage

Crystal Castles - In a tent preferably

OutKast - Other Stage headliners on Fri?

The Cribs - Fairly high up on Other or Pyramid

Empire of the Sun - The Park headliners or maybe John Peel

Eels - John Peel

Mardy I was just listening to my 10" of the Yellow EP last night. Feckin' gorgeous.

I think theyre on a mega-hiatus at the mo unfortunately.

If I could get one act that are possible to play it would be CHIC.

An act that'd be far fetched would be Ween.

A total long-shot would be the incomperable Kate Bush.

yeah, well you know, I'd be quite happy to miss the entire lineup on the Pyramid/Other to see some more interesting bands in some of the other places. I don't think I saw anybody on the Other last year, and only a couple of acts on the Pyramid.

And most importantly, the return of the Leftfield.

I've seen Cope twice, once was at Phoenix festival in 93 or so, and he was proper mental, then a few years later and he really wasn't very good. Given that his recent Black Sheep thing is his strongest for ages, yeah, I'd quite like to see him. Preferably tucked away somewhere on a smaller stage. I really get the feeling that he doesn't rise well to the big occasion. Love him to pieces though.

    • I honestly didn't know it had, I still thought it was where the view overlooked the lake and view.   I think my decision not to attend this year at least was justified. Biffy was the big draw but after Finsbury I knew they wouldn't play what I want to hear again and well work also got in the way. Believed interesting to hear if Libertines were any good as they were also a pull but Sunday did nothing for me really with all my acts on Friday and Saturday.

    • Knocked Loose have been announced for Wacken, that's them at Bloodstock as well   I think they'd headline over Malev 
    • I hate tradmill running with a passion lol. Yeah the 1km reps are the one along with hill reps. That's what I did last time.  It's very a very hot summer and job circumstances to stay at the consistent level I was for the marathon earlier in the year. I've got a full set of the main distance new PBs this year. 10k isn't a problem most days but even today I went out deciding just over 5 mile was enough between recovery cruise and steady.
    • There is also a solid argument from Seventeen already that not enough people actually care if they book them also.
