There's a hole in my Glastonbury

[It doesn't get any better]

Some advice please. I think the line up this year is great and we're sure to have a blast

However my friends and I always enjoy a banging session to the likes of Chems, Orbital, Prodigy etc but there doesn't seem to be the same slot this year. Chase and Status don't really do it for me and I'll probably go and see the Stones anyway.

Not being a dance music expert I would welcome some suggestions on how to fill this hole

I had hoped for Leftfield but that was not to be

[Messy]

You're right on there not really being anything like the big names you mentioned, but there should definitely be some excellent stuff on at the likes of silver hayes and block 9. Think a lot of it is yet to be announed but Kerri Chandler is one that's there that is tickling my fancy.

There's Major Lazer on west holts I suppose..

There's a hole in your what now?

This thread reminded me of this tune for some reason:

Next month we'll be drinking in some seldom seen fields.

What is it with modern acts and their vowelophobia?

Wait for the full line up. What might seem a smaller name my be an absolute belter.

In 2011 in the glade on Sunday the Steroe MC's smashed it.

From what's been announced so far there's The Orb, Kerri chandler, Randall, Carl Craig, Bicep, Daniel Avery, Dave Seaman, Nick Warren, Greg Wilson, Graeme Park. Sometimes a smaller act is better - you're not going in with any high hopes! I'm really excited about the Orb. Hope they go flat out like this!

Simian Mobile Disco at the Spirit of 71 stage are the closest you'll get. Here's a free stream of their live album and they're v good live:

Go to one of the 50 odd dance stages? No one cares about dance music enough to care who's playing

The era of those "stadium sized" dance acts seems to be on the wane.

You can't beat Carl Craig though.

[Homer]

Can echo that. Every time I've seen SMD do their live act (as opposed to a DJ set) it has gone off the hook mental.

You're not going to have a bad time with SMD if that's your choice.

Justice are playing in Russia on the Friday, then in the states on 5th July. Glastonbury is definitely on the way

[bigfurbdogg]

yes they were! only went to see them as they were on before Justice i believe? and they absolutely nailed it

not a big name (per say) but i'm still really hoping TNGHT are added. Higher Ground will bring down the house!

[It doesn't get any better]

Brilliant advice. I think SMD sounds really promising
