The Non-Headlining Acts 2013

[GlastoSimon]

Was just about to point out Hop Farm getting Dinosaur Jr, looking better for Glastonbury now!

[mrtourette]

They're in Germany on the Saturday and Sunday, although Friday at Glastonbury might explain why they've announced a random gig in Reading on the Thursday night (unless they're using that as a warm-up for their mini German tour, which would be odd).

[Dead throne]

The Prodigy?

[TheSeventhOne]

Surely they're nailed on for Friday then?

How do promoters get away with this exlusive bullshit? I understand maybe when EOTR booked them they didn't have any other festivals booked at that point but there is a very big difference between that and them beings signed to exclusively appear at one festival. It's not even clever wording, just lies and false advertising.

[Vieuphoria]

That Friday at Hop Farm looks incredible.

MBV exclusive at Hop Farm. Gutted.

I can't find it on spotify, can you link it? Doesn't seem to be uploaded for me, along with all the other releases for today. Bit annoying...

[GlastoSimon]

That is a real bummer

[dancelittleliar]

Is that on the official Hop Farm site? Or is it another Dinosaur Jr. case, where other places have picked up on the fact they're only doing one festival and labelled them "exclusives"?

[GlastoSimon]

Nope, hop farm website. It's late enough that they would be booked for Glastonbury if they were playing, and it's very specific:

"Headliners have been announced as: My Bloody Valentine (exclusive festival show England & Wales)"

EOTR was a case most likely in which the announcement was early, and at time of writing they were exclusive. That logic can't feasibly be applied to this, and they're unlikely to mess up a headliner exclusive claim

To make up for that negative, it appears that Alex Turner of the Arctic Monkeys will be on the new QOTSA album!

Does this make the latter appearing more likely?
