+1 for him, can't wait

[Brave Sir Robin]

Still only an 'R' on the lineup page, but I've added The Who to the playlist. A reminder of how many great songs they have, although surprised to see they're doing the Townshend-sang 'I'm One' from Quadrophenia at every show.

[Brave Sir Robin]

Recent additions to the Glastonbury 2015 playlist: Courteeners, North Mississippi Allstars, Michael Mayer, Profetas, Curtis Eller, Mumdance, and Bomba Estereo. Also checked setlists and updated several of the bigger acts.

My new find today (courtesy of your mega playlist BSR)

Bomba Estereo wow. Where will they be playing dude? Can't stop listening to them

[Crystal Waters]

Thank you so much for introducing me to Spotify and to everybody who has shared playlists. It's made my day! Kid with new toy here. Didn't get much work done but my list of "must sees" has got a lot longer.

:)

Shangri La. Presumably Hell Stage. I'm glad about them too, they sound great fun and played Sonic last year but I missed them. Hopefully it'll work out this time.

[Brave Sir Robin]

Added Weller last night. Unless you've been following his career pretty closely, you aren't going to recognise any of his 5 most played tunes (although Into Tomorrow and White Sky are actually good).

Good to hear Crystal, enjoy!

Out of curiosity, how do most people approach the Glastonbury 2015 Spotify playlist. Do you go for the shuffle approach or do you just listen to it in order of artists?

Was shuffling, but now working my way down it to identify the good sh*t...

I shuffle it, I do a lot of skipping (of tracks, not literally, actually I prob have skipped to some tunes....) anyway, yeah shuffle is good, get to mix it up a bit and hear stuff you wouldn't normally. Its an immense playlist, BSR really is a top dude for sorting it.

Hear, hear. Top work that man.

I've mainly been shuffling but when it comes to resuming my listening I've often encountered the same songs again which is sometimes a little annoying. Not sure if Spotify is clever enough to know what I've already listened to or not?

I'm now playing through it in order and will skip those I'm not interested in. Will see how that works out for me!

shuffle it, and if there's something I like I drag it to a separate playlist for later listening and investigation and that.

[Gnomicide]

Give it 10 seconds, if I like it I move to a separate playlist.

[mandolin]

Just wanted to say thanks for this BSR. Started playing with it tonight and have already added 15 to my "will do my best to get to see" list. May need culling (the list, not me!).

[Brave Sir Robin]

Cheers Perks, psward and mandolin, good to hear. I will be at the eFests meet on the Weds if you would like to show your appreciation in liquid form

As to how to approach the playlist, I've been going through it in order and adding stuff to a personal playlist, but also putting it on shuffle every now and then, which has thrown up a few gems I'd previously overlooked. And some of the contrasts you get from one track to another can be highly amusing!

I've updated some of the poster acts based on recent setlists, put the Avalon Stage acts in order of appearance, and added recent self-confirmations/TBCs Lazy Habits, Rusty Shackle, Sentient, Dutty Moonshine, My Baby, Sam Duckworth, Fast Eddie, Flight Brigade and The Correspondents.

Hey guys, where can I find the official 2015 playlist by you guys?

[Brave Sir Robin]

Hi thisisthesam, playlist can be found at this link.

It's not in any way official! The lower half of it is made up of acts who have announced themselves or who we/eFestivals are confident are playing, but who haven't been announced by the festival yet.
