Bort Posted March 28, 2013 Report Share Posted March 28, 2013 One epic headliner and two shitty ones. Outside that, some glaring omissions but a couple dozen acts I'd like to see. Overall, 7. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scotrsman Posted March 28, 2013 Report Share Posted March 28, 2013 10 for me. Couldn't have asked for any more. My top five (realistic) wants, Friday Potishead, Saturday The Stones and Sunday Exploring. Plus loads of great surprises. All it needs now is Atoms for Peace to play a secret set and it will be complete. Couldn't be happier. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Party-'Scatter'! Posted March 28, 2013 Report Share Posted March 28, 2013 A solid 8. Potential to increase when more dance stuff is revealed. Lacking the feminine touch a la Beyoncé, Shakira cheesy sing a long. Most excited about Vampire Weekend and Public Enemy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
STEVEYBOY Posted March 28, 2013 Report Share Posted March 28, 2013 10. Good line up for me. Stones, Smashing, Dinosaur Jr, Nick Cave and a lot more I want to see. Great start to the Easter weekend :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monkismo Posted March 28, 2013 Report Share Posted March 28, 2013 I gave it a 5. All the bigger acts I've seen before at Glastonbury and there's no real WTF moments at all so I'm pretty disappointed, Horses for courses I spose but I think the Other Stage is particularly weak. At least I won't be dashing round. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lukemack Posted March 28, 2013 Report Share Posted March 28, 2013 8, best UK festival line up this year easily. Only let down is that there's no acts that I'm not thinking 'wow weren't expecting them' etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sadimmock Posted March 28, 2013 Report Share Posted March 28, 2013 An okay 5. Three headliners I have no interest in (that's not a biggie), but a surprising lack of wow moments elsewhere (so far). Portishead are the only act there that really excites me; otherwise there a few interesting bits and bobs, but I've seen most of them before. I'm sure that I'll have a great time and, as ever, will enjoy spending a lot of time at some of the other stages, but I do hope that a few more gems are added.

4AssedMonkey Posted March 28, 2013 Report Share Posted March 28, 2013 A fair bit of predictable dross, but some surprise & delight with Chic, Portishead and Public Enemy and some strong stuff too. 8. Would be 9 were it not for the fucking Friday night clashmare. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Badlands Posted March 28, 2013 Report Share Posted March 28, 2013 A solid 7 for me. Plenty playing that I've not seen before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mardy Posted March 28, 2013 Report Share Posted March 28, 2013 I gave it 6 last night. On reflection so far I give it 5. Too many bands i don't know or dont care about. Just means checking out the whole site a bit more weather permitting Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amy Lawn Posted March 28, 2013 Report Share Posted March 28, 2013 I gave it a 7, mainly for the Stones, there's no getting around the fact that the line-up just looks like a bunch of safe bets, only a handful of acts I need to see. But it's the best line-up out of any UK major fest this year (admittedly not saying much) and Glastonbury has so much more going on than the rest so I'm still very pleased I have a ticket.

Memory Man Posted March 28, 2013 Report Share Posted March 28, 2013 you cant rate a lineup that is less than half complete? its nowhere near the full lineup Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bisque Posted March 28, 2013 Report Share Posted March 28, 2013 Looks like a lot of the R&L line up shafted in there. Pretty happy as I actually like Mumford & Sons. An 8 from me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Amazing_Oblong Posted March 28, 2013 Report Share Posted March 28, 2013 7 for me. There is a lot of stuff in there I have seen before but enough to keep me happy. Who on earth put Nick Cave/Pumpkins and Dinosaur Jr in the same slot ? If they spread those out a little it would be an 8. Friday is a bit weak for my tastes on the main stages and then Sat you get clashes with Stones/Horrors/Public Enemy. Gah. Also no real headliner Sunday, sorry but I think Mumfords are a daytime band and nowhere near Pyramid headliner status. Still have to look away from the main stages properly yet so might get some nice suprises like Frightened Rabbit at JP and not seen Dance lineup either. Whatever, I'm sure it will be a good un.

annax Posted March 28, 2013 Report Share Posted March 28, 2013 I've had a recount. Even just looking at the Pyramid and Other stages I've decided it's worth at least 6/10. So results updated and now getting proper giddy. One thing though, if I had a piano to move, maybe. But not for a Sunday night headliner.

LondonTom Posted March 28, 2013 Report Share Posted March 28, 2013 5 I think overall, it's not bad but its nothing like my last two for me. I am not that excited by anyone other than Rolling Stones/Chic..repetitive in places and no surprises as of yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thenitgoesoff Posted March 29, 2013 Report Share Posted March 29, 2013 9 for me, would of liked James somewhere, and weirdly shocked how good the pyramid looks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marcwilson87 Posted March 29, 2013 Report Share Posted March 29, 2013 8. Basically a 10 means Pink Floyd play and Nick Cave doesn't clash with The Smashing Pumpkins! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gregcharlie Posted March 29, 2013 Report Share Posted March 29, 2013 7. Think it is a very very safe lineup that could've been made a lot better by taking a few punts but I guess that is just the modern festival. Really disappointed by the Park Stage lineup which is normally so so strong and I feel like I won't be spending nearly as much time there as I normally do. Oh well guess it means I can spend a little more time wandering the site. Once again Glastonbury - sort the Other stage out, incredible in 2010, and then awful in the two subsequent festivals.

FunkyDenz Posted March 29, 2013 Report Share Posted March 29, 2013 I've marked it as a 7, but it's really a 7.5, it's a good, strong line-up, but room for improvement. There's still lots more to announce though, which should push it up to an 8, they might even reach 9 with a big announcement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJL Posted March 29, 2013 Report Share Posted March 29, 2013 Went for a seven, of which the rolling stones added a one alone. A few omissions i was hoping for but add an atoms for peace guest appearance, some decent dance acts (sonar or in the se corner) and some good blues on that stage and it could still be a nine. As others have said it is still the best line-up this year , and not just in the uk - imo infinitely better than coachella, fuji rock (which i'm going to), benicassim etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dukeeyyy Posted March 29, 2013 Report Share Posted March 29, 2013 Saturday clash for me.. Stones/C&S/Hurts/Public Enemy/The Horrors makes it a 9 from me, can't fault the bands playing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
