Only a week to go, so help out the undecided, which of the lesser knowns would you recomend we go and see and why

I'd start with.....

Coheed and Cambria - Concept retro prog with a nice metal edge, and a bit more accessible than Mars Volta if you like that stuff

Toddla T - Sheffield Skanksta, Dance Hall, Hardcore DnB, Electro House, its all there and will have the dance tent bouncing on Sunday afternoon

Dave Seaman - Pussy parlour headline Thursday night and The Glade Lounge from 0130 - 0300 Saturday night / Sunday Morning. Best DJ in the world ever. Not a band I realise but if your half into electronic music then he may be up your street. :D

Frightened Rabbit - Brilliant band from Scotland, their last album "Midnight Organ Fight" was incredible.

Holy F*ck - Brilliant (mostly)instrumental grooves, thumping bass guitar, BIG drums and lots of nice synthy noises

Phoenix - French pop at it's finest, beautifull and summery music, perfect for Glasto.

Crystal Fighters - Play dancey stuff with a large live band, caught them at Lowlands last year, was really impressed.

Dubfire - big bassy techno. enough said.

Mixhell - Sepultura drummer and his wife join forces as a DJ duo

Four tet - lovely chilled stuff.

Ah im excited!!!

Does anyone have any recommendations that are a bit out of the norm, folky, dancey, hoe down sort of music??

Something a bit like Mad Dog Mcrea sort of thing? (was hoping they would be there again this year)

    • To be fair @Superscally barely mentions the running thing. Very quiet about it 😘
    • I guess we'll just have to wait until videos of the shows go up, but the fact that the standing is also greyed out still suggests to me that those sections just sold out out before the others and a blue block just be like 3 tickets left, it's still not concrete proof they never went on sale and if they were never on sale why would they not make it even, if 414 wasn't on sale then you'd think 409 wouldn't be either   
    • Selfish, but I've done the 2 days I'm there.. i'll try to do the rest through the day but might get beaten to it as it's editable....    https://clashfinder.com/s/ape2026/
    • I don’t think the festival automatically ‘need’ to have a female headliner if you have strong female headliners on the Other Stage (which I reckon will be Rosalia and Phoebe Bridgers), perhaps a female legend (praying for Annie, will take Cher), and a few female/mix gendered subs on the Pyramid (maybe London Grammar, The xx). From what I’ve seen of Sabrina, her team prioritises the pay day and I think she will be doing Wembley over Glasto weekend.   One thing I’ve noticed is a lot of the suggestions would be first time headliners and I can’t work out when the last time was that the festival had three artists top the bill that hadn’t topped it before? It seems to be something they like to do to make sure they have a ‘safe’ headliner that will land well with the masses. Plenty of names in that hat that could step back up next summer and should/could be about: Billie Eilish, Adele, Foo Fighters, The Cure, Radiohead, U2…hell, if Beyoncé is really planning to release a ‘rock n roll’ album to complete her Renaissance trilogy, Glastonbury would be a great place to ‘kick off’ that campaign for her.   And there’s always the Rihanna rumour. Her husband (I think) said this week she’s in the studio.
    • And all (or all but one) of the secret sets repeats though?
