She's in the midst of a UK tour to promote her new record (which might be one of her weakest, but still good and worth listening).

Could she play next year?

I believe she only played Bestival and Underage last year, so she'll be fresh for all the festivals.

I think she'd be suited for Glasto, but could play Reading easily as well.

Thing is, I'm a bit biased as a fan, so I can't really decide where she'd play if she does?

I think Pyramid wouldn't really suit her, and she wouldn't be big enough anyway.

I had thought of her possibly subbing Other if Chems or DP play?

However, I reckon she could easily headline Dance or possibly JPT instead?

I saw her at Manchester and she was excellent. Short set (as was booked, wasn't her own gig) but she smashed some hits, did some of the lesser known new record and left us wanting more.

Sadly Sleigh Bells who were also booked didn't show. If they could both be booked for Glasto it would be brilliant. Could do a couple of guest songs with each other.

Shes an interesting artist who would fit well at Glastonbury I guess. I could see her argued for many slots. Sub Other .. headling J.P or Dance?

I think Other Stage would be more suitable, as the set includes a lot of visuals.

I was with lucy in the sky with diamonds during her set at big chill this summer, which worked out well as the visuals were absolutely brilliant. Unfortunately the set ended in a massive surge of people clambering onto the stage which marred the experience slightly, especially as I couldn't really comprehend what was happening anyway.

    • Another one from Sheffield DocFest this weekend, Earth Wind & Fire docu, directed by Questlove. Sensational archive footage, contributions from band members, family, plus a lot of very big fans (Stevie, Lionel, Flea, the Obamas) and a warts n all assessment of the genius / flawed human being that was Maurice White. Also, I never realised he started out as a jazz drummer with Ramsay Lewis. Well worth a watch.
    • In a 6,800-word Substack essay, external, the Clacton MP said "anti-white racism was embedded into the state", and that legislation aimed at equality was a form of "social cleansing"   .https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cdjkd4mp93zo   The privileged white c**t hasn’t got a clue what racism is. 
    • BBC iPlayer: Will serve as the main hub for past sets, including both recent hits and iconic archival gems.
