I think Kasabian and Maximo Park have a similar demographic so would be a bit too much of a clash. Bright Eyes could headline the tent I reckon, Oberst was originally booked to 2nd headline the NME in 2008 and that was on his own.

Bright Eyes are supposed to be finishing after this album. Not sure if they're going to keep the touring up until next year.

Regardless - really don't reckon they're big enough to headline the tent, have never had huge chart success in the uk and don't think they got that big a crowd at Glasto last weekend - I managed to end up third row back with ease.

Oberst might have been originally booked to sub NME - and did play third - but were you in the tent for his set? The tent was almost empty.

Rancid should be above gaslight anthem who are to high anyway. Morrissey won't play. The prodigy and lostprophets playing the same slots they always play is just boring. Happy mondays below courteeners is a joke. No doubt are to low.

Wasn't really meant to be an accurate prediction, more hypothetical.

Care to expand on wrong placings? I know there's bound to be a few seeing as I have next to no knowledge on the whole "NME/Indie" side of things

Although with Incubus playing, Prophets moved to 4th sunday.

Some preedictions have suggested Linkin Park, as much as I would love it I just can't see it.

    • Looking like will be bringing a 2-3 month old to Glastonbury next year
    • Healey's first budget with be Oct 28th
    • Been going for 10 years. Wasn't massively keen on the lineup beforehand - although as usual after some research I did start to really look forward to it. We had a brilliant time, felt more like old school Latitude, lovely vibe and we met some nice people. We saw loads but highlights for me -   Lime Garden Florence Road Jalen Ngonda David Byrne - Not a fan of him or TH really but we went out of interest and it was one of those festival shows that you'll never forget. The staging was off the scale. Eleni Drake - Up on BBC Introducing, what a haven that stage is.  Westside Cowboy Getdown Services - Probably highlight of the weekend for me. Absolutely brilliant and have booked tix for them in Bristol next year. Everything Everything - They're my favourite band so I loved it when they were added. A great start to Sunday and met loads of their fans up near the front. Alex James Britpop - We enjoyed it and Gary Stringer FFS! David O'Doherty - Saw him twice, brilliant as usual. Self Esteem - Adore Rebecca and the show was as live affirming as always.   Overall, it was such a brilliant weekend. Beforehand we said that we might give it a miss next year but I'm pretty sure that we'll be sucked right back in!
    • Me too.  Reckon they must have more this year.   Not bad is it - ended up paying same price as this year.  It still represents great value for me.  Well, until I check my bank account the Monday after the weekend.
    • Well mayors have more powers to do that sh*t...but they have to make the numbers add up.
