It wasn't on Just Be's page...he said it on his personal profile long time ago...I can't seem to find the post, but he said something like being very excited to be booked for Glastonbury 2015, after many years not being down at the farm...

Yeah! Seems like every smallish but great band is likely to be there - there's obviously gonna be a few that Glasto will miss but i'm sure we're gonna get a cracking undercard as usual.

I'd say all that this year is missing - is self confirmations from massive acts.

Last year we had bands like the Black Keys, Lily Allen, Lana Del Rey, Skrillex etc self confirming on their own terms - Don't think anyone to that caliber has self-confirmed for this year yet. Don't think we have any self confirmations from bands likely to headline stages / take massive slots yet...

They played West Holts last year, but only managed 10 mins before the storm. They're rumoured for West Holts again, which I think is a good place for them.

Really? What the hell was I doing on the pyramid?

(Getting soaked like everyone else being the obvious answer)

Saw Vintage Trouble last night and they confirmed they are at Glastonbury. They did seem a little vague on the day though.

Excellent, how was the new material ? They've got an new EP out according to their website

Much as I love Vintage Trouble, the speed with which they're adding new material to their oeuvre is bloody frustrating. I first stumbled across them at Y Not in 2012, and their live set doesn't feel like it's changed much since then. Wish they would take 6 months off from touring and get back into the studio for album number 2!

The acoustic EP is good, but does feel like a stop gap.

Summer Camp favourited a tweet of mine wondering if their gig at the start of June means they are around for Glastonbury. Will take that as a self confirmation!

(Was suprisied to see, they actually follow me, as my tweets are protected!)

A perfect fit for mid afternoon John Peel tent me thinks

Anyway the Maccabees have self confirmed, what more excitement do you need...

Saw them early afternoon John Peel in 2013 to quite a sparse crowd noone was really up for it

but then some friends saw them at Williams Green in a packed tent and they were big fans so swings and roundabouts I guess

I saw a bit of that, agreed it wasn't up to much. They covered 'Girls Just Wanna Have Fun' I think??

Scottish producer Graeme Clark aka The Revenge, whose debut album of " disco, downtempo and slowed-down house" includes a collaboration with Sister Sledge, is playing the Friday

    • Another great weekend with family and friends.  We spend most of our time between Obelisk, and second stage due to having young children.  Overpass, Florence Road, Nathan Evans, David Byrne and Alex James were the highlights for me.  Quite enjoyed a dance to Gok Wan on the Saturday too.   Certainly feeling the Latitude blues this week and looking forward to next year.   Also looking forward to all the predictions for next year in the 2027 chat.   Hope everyone had a great festival.    
    • How much is Burnham's success down to Manchester getting a shitton of investment for public transport infrastructure?   There's no doubt he did the work, but the money dumped into Manchester for him to achieve that was huge - the most of any infrastructure project outside London ever. Did that need a mayor, or just the money?
    • Sounds good tbh. 
    • Bristol was the only city in 2012 that voted for a mayor. We had a local independent who was popular, then Marvin Rees won and was so corrupt that Bristol voted to get rid of the position - having just had the WECA mayor position put in place as well.
    • They built a watering system and have been watering the island for the past few weeks to reduce dust, but given the current drought, there will still be dust. They will cover twice as much ground around the main stage with those plastic panels as they did before. They couldn't book Gogol Bordello because the singer was afraid the government would allow Russian security services to capture him if he entered the country. They didn't have much room to be selective about artists. They booked whoever they could get. This year's Sziget will be only about 50% of his original vision. He wanted a dedicated rock stage. They are preparing for a loss of 1.5 billion HUF this year. For some reason, student tickets are not selling in the numbers they had expected. He said that when he talks about the lineup being less important, he doesn't mean Sziget should have a weaker lineup than Primavera. Rather, it should have a similarly strong lineup combined with much more non-musical programming, so people from abroad come here to see the same artists but have a completely different overall experience. He didn't miss Sziget and originally wanted to spend no more than two days a week dealing with it, but now he's working on it full-time and has handed over control of the rest of his businesses.
