Added the ETC acts to the playlist, so far as they're on Spotify (near the end, beginning with Bossy Love).

I've added Bossy Love and Hattie Whitehead to my own personal playlist, I really like them both, and hope one of them wins.

Bossy Love aren't for me but I agree about Hattie Whitehead, gorgeous folk in something of an early Laura Marling style. Impressed by Early Ghost's folkish rock too, the standard generally is very good.

If you like Whitehead also check out Billie Marten, who I've also added following @thurlow84's tip. A little more intense but just as good.

Please tell me you are using: http://static.echonest.com/SetListener/

What a strange comment. That link just creates a playlist of any one individual artist's most recent setlist from setlist.fm. It's nothing like this, which is a huge playlist of every Glastonbury act (including officially- and self-confirmed, TBCs & SRs), including the 5 songs each has played live most over the last 1-2 years (drawn from setlist.fm & other sources).

Yeah I thought it might help make it easier/quicker to curate your combined playlist!

I'd imagine in the last set each artist has played, will include the songs you want to include in your combined playlist!

Often but not always, and it's never just the 5 most often played songs, so it'd add cutting out the rest to the task. Copying individual songs from one playlist to another is more fiddly than just adding a song from the general Spotify library. It's working out the 5 most played recently songs which is the (slightly) time-consuming bit, and SetListener does nothing to help that. Nor does it necessarily use the best/most appropriate version of each song that's available on Spotify, so I'd have to check what it's chosen for each track. Thanks for the thought, but it's not for me.

Just wondering, why is there some Simon & Garfunkel songs, but there isn't any Joy Divisions? Love will tear us apart and Atmosphere has got to be there right?

The playlist features the songs each act has included in their set most over the past year or two. Art plays mostly Simon & Garfunkel stuff. New Order do regularly play the two you mention, but not as much as their own tunes that are on there. Hell, they don't even play Blue Monday at every gig, the idjuts!

However, I agree that LWTUA ought to be on there, and looking again, they have played it every gig so far this year, and every English gig last year (apart from one for 6Music), so I've added it to the playlist.

    • Another note, if I didn't mention the food in the arena for main stage is right at the back. Bands wise they do very well for but as a festival so far they pros are outweighed quite heavily currently for me.
    • On another note for RIP as an event, there is some good things but there are so many things people going to UK festivals would hate and how far behind they are.  Consistent network and water, beer and pretzel like food is brought around to buy in the crowds. Topping up on the wristband is good. The camping and food arrangement is not good, you really need cooking kit. Water points inside the arena are bonkers, water points in camping are a faff unless you are close enough in general camp. Merch stands are crazy. You MASSIVELY need to think about your lidl shop for camping and try and do it so you've one stop. It's definitely worth it getting to a camping shop here, picking up a rolley between your mates and stacking it for the walk back....lidl is cheap though, not hard getting in but Thursday queues getting in and into the camping is mad. You have to register first for a wristband as well leaving any bigger bags behind so pull to a side if only two and do it separately. I was joining a WhatsApp group for solo camp so went with the flow but I've learnt. Had it been me or just two my tent would have been down much quicker.  Big final note, I got a fresh and black 3 man from decathlon before coming and put in bigger suitcase with my airbed and sleeping bag...do this. Take a smaller option for your clothes. If you go to Munich first, book your train to Nuremberg as far in advance as you can....very important!....it hikes crazy. Probably bettee overall for baggage sizes to do BA both ways but you do then need to go back to Munich after too. Use the B&B hotel hbf the night before....its very nice, comfortable, cheap and within 10 minutes of the station which also serves as a transport stop 15 minutes from the registration.  Get up literally like 5am with everything back the night before, shower and go. Transport is free anyway for festival ticket holders during the duration.  Would I just choose to travel in each day and back to a hotel?, on the basis of sleep and getting accommodation cheap enough for 3 nights i might just do especially if I picked the ticket up early enough. It doesn't feel like a festival in a normal sense....unless you are in general yoi have to exit on the paths outside the camping to walk down and in which also applies for getting water so have a stock up. Toilets are in the camping.
    • Yup and they aren't cheap   Glastonbury is different though, it's a place that will pack out for rarities they don't usually see. Download strictly speaking shouldn't be the strangest place for Avril to pop up of she had been a touring artist of longer times over the years.   Avril and GC would get the same billing for me and GC are selling arenas out quicker than Avril sold Ally Pally. Bearing in mind she'd pnly done soem Brixton dates before.
    • Avril gets above GC on rarity (see Cypress Hill this year). She drew in something like 70,000 at Glastonbury, so much so that they had to close the field off. I’d wager that she would get the biggest crowd of the entire weekend if she was to play DL.
