yeah there are some odd choices! De la Soul i'd definitely have on west holts, disclosure and Ferry not.

Kaiser chiefs headlining JP is odd. thought they'd be early pyramid fodder, same Blondie on other?!

paolo on other is very odd indeed....

and yeah horrors at 4pm on other doesnt work for me at all

De la soul have been on west holts a number of times. I think they'll be great on the pyramid.

Cant really disagree with the general point though, there are a few odd picks. The John Peel stage is either gonna have to grow or expect some big crowds. Kaiser Cheifs, MGMT, London Grammer, Lykke Li, Chvrches, Chromeo, Crystal Fighters, Little Dragon and Chance the rapper are all decent acts who could pull in a crowd (and probably a lot of the others too, I just don't know them).

Its gonna seem a little odd to go to Glastonbury and spend a huge chunk of it in a "side tent" but I think that seems likely at the moment!

Anyone else think MGMT will get a small crowd? I like them and am planning to see them but no one has a good word to say about them!

Have two big hits I suppose and they might pull in the 'indie' crowd who are stuck between Metallica and Jake Bugg.

all of those acts are acts i fully expected to be in the John Peel. every one of them. i think you're overestimating the appeal of some of them (i mean, do you really think MGMT are gonna pull a decent crowd? 'cause i don't)

Fisherman's Friends on at the Acoustic... too small and I wanted to drink cider in the sun and listen!

OK - so it's probably the right stage I'm just lazy and it's a long way away from other stages.

It's very strange that Paolo is on Other. I think he's going to pull a huge crowd and Other is going to get a bit squashed.

Also find Kaisers on JP a bit strange considering in 2011 they were subs (or headline, can't quite remember?) on Other. Would've thought they'd have been moved to an early Pyramid or just put back on Other.

    • Not necessarily but it should be, Download have a habit of messing it uo when others get the bookings on point. Good Charlotte I doubt are playing 3rd down and that too 3 that day while dreamy is too strong. I think you'd have one another day to help sell weekend tickets. I also doubt Papa Roach play. 
    • Here's a bit of a wild stab, few placings may be off, and for all I know half of these won't actually be touring next year, but screw it, it's a bit of fun   Pyramid: Sabrina Carpenter, Phoebe Bridgers, TBA (Florence + The Machine), Garbage, The Last Dinner Party, Interpol, Alex James Britpop Classical Other: Chase & Status, Teddy Swims, Clairo, The Kooks, Zara Larsson, Kingfishr, Sports Team, Orbital West Holts: Robyn, Baby Keem, De La Soul, Deltron 3030, JID, Dua Saleh, kwn, Daniela Latila Woodsies: Bonobo, Darkside, TBA (Tame Impala), Laufey, Warmduscher, Wednesday, The Lottery Winners, The Royston Club, Florence Road Park: Patti Smith, Super Furry Animals, Slayyyter, The Cardigans, Skye Newman, Kelly Lee Owens, Teen Jesus & The Jean Teasers   Pyramid: Harry Styles, The xx, Richard Ashcroft, The Pogues, Jessie J, Sigrid, Travis Other: Rosalia, Sombr, Mitski, Alex Warren, Holly Humberstone, Cat Burns, Pale Waves, Yard Act West Holts: Basement Jaxx, Elyanna, Clipse, L’Imperatrice, Nation of Language, Jim Legxacy, Yazmin Lacey, RIP Magic Woodsies: Suede, Chvrches, Bleachers, MUNA, The Cribs, Keo, Bleech 9:3, The Lilacs Park: MARINA, Magdalena Bay, Jacob Alon, TBA (Lily Allen performs West End Girl), Getdown Services, Isaac Wood, Snail Mail, Madra Salach Pyramid: Sam Fender, Hozier, David Byrne, Cher, Obongjayar, David Gray, Billy Ocean Other: Doja Cat, Deftones, Addison Rae, Ren, Viagra Boys, Maisie Peters, The Reytons, Hard Life West Holts: Kano, Thievery Corporation, Angine De Poitrine, Thee Sacred Souls, Brooke Combe, Sasha Keable, Master Peace Woodsies: The Wombats, Metronomy, Geese*, Dry Cleaning, EsDeeKid, Sienna Spiro, Cowboy Hunters, Radio Free Alice Park: Big Thief, Laura Marling, MJ Lenderman, Richard Dawson, Oklou, Maruja, Dead Dads Club, Ratboys   *There's always one band booked for Woodsies that ends up being massively under-billed and gets shut down really early. They'd be better off playing somewhere like Other sub, but I could see the G getting them to play a smaller stage while it's still possible
    • Another Kraftwerk one for me today, as just back from seeing them.    
    • Completed my 2026 survey. Put down Super Furry Animals as my most wanted for next year but suspect the moment has gone for that. Popped a big shopping list in the box for who else you would like to see. 🙂
