reckon bonobo will make an appearance?

was set on getting tickets to his dj set in london but they sold out this morning in about 10 seconds and, unfortunately i wasn't as lucky as i was with glasto

Did tickets really go that quickly? I tried for them and assumed it was an error with the system when I couldn't buy. His set at the Hydra at the end of last year took ages to sell out...

Darling's such a tinny word

It's fine by me if people with a family connection or friendship use it for each other, but as an endearment for someone you don't know, it always sounds a bit false, or even patronising.

Hope the vid made you smile, anyway!

I hope so. They put him up against Pretty Lights at Glade last year which was a very annoying clash. I saw half of Bonobo then over to Glade. Can't see him doing anything but a DJ set though.

i wouldn't be surprised if they kept the line up secret till after the payment window closes so they can make a point that people are happy to pay without seeing who's playing

maybe they are just trying to test everyone's faith

As much as I love Glastonbury I don't like being taken for granted or spending money when I don't know what I'm getting. I really hope the festival doesn't think like that. For an ethical festival it doesn't seem like a nice way to treat people.

that would be rather egotistical of them, I dont think theyd release nothing at all until after payment window only reason to do that would be if the lineup was `so` bad this year they were truley worried about the annoucment losing them a tonne of ticketholders.......but somehow i doubt thats the case haha

People have until May to get a refund.

On a hardrive, somewhere in Pilton there is a poster design being worked on with the line up on it. This post has no meaning. I'm just getting a bit excited as the time is nearly upon us.

hat. For an ethical festival it doesn't seem like a nice way to treat people.

No offence meant, but if you love Glastonbury you know it's not all about the bands, also ME did say last year he would love not to announce anything until the festival starts.

The announce late also because they do not pay top $ for bands and other festivals exclusives play meaning they have to let tickets sell first.

As I said not having a dig or anything.

Do people really not go if the lineups perceived as crap?

Feel like we've been here before.

there is so many stages that I doubt there wont be at least a few bands I like, but as much as there is loads other than bands to do at Glastonbury, the main reason I go is for the music, so yeah if the line up contained no bands I wanted to see I would probably be returning my tickets.

Though I normally find a few new bands I like because of trying to listen to everything I don't know on the line up. If they release the line up too late though I wont have a chance to do that before I have to pay though

It's nice to know the line up and see who's playing but I'm going for the whole thing, the atmosphere the late night areas, things that you don't see on the TV and don't really understand until you've been there, I've been desperate to go for years and managed to get a ticket this year so I don't care who plays, I'm just grateful I got a ticket

    • Ann and Nancy Wilson are planning a final world tour for HEART starting next year. They were never at Glastonbury. They should do it. 
    • sub yes I could see but I don't think they get 1hr 15, a headliner starting at 18:15 though is unlikely. Even the recent co-headlines that have had like 1hr 15 then a 1hr 30 after were on 8pm or just before, you are trailing behind more than 1.5 hours then. In that scenario some 3rd down bands are only starting at 18:15 and some haven't lol. I agree they won't not book them due to this but it won't be 6 headliners. It would be 5 headliners and you wouldn't want to see 5 headliners booked but Biffy were to not be thouhgt of as an option for one. Wolf Alice on the other hand could sub no bother and you'd think nothing of it. I'm not so sure Biffy would get headline though after the festival choice in Kendal this year.
    • Definitely. UKIP also used Merkel welcoming 1 million Afgans to Europe in 2015 during the brexit vote.   Politicians in other countries within the EU know the are going to lose voters to parties to the right of them over stuff like this and they've no control over it.
    • I think it will very much vary on who there is to book who they know will sell out a day.    They’ve co-headline and full headline stuff in future, there no reason at all they won’t do it again, even if it means cutting someone’s set by 15 mins or having a band less in a big bands day…   They’re not going to not book Foo fighters and instead get the equivalent of Florence and C&S just to not have a band do a big set…   …unless of course they think it will make them more money…
