I'm pretty sure the guy only claimed that he'd found out that Rudimental were headlining Friday night. Anything else is separate.

Not that I'm giving any thought to Florence playing the Other Stage.

Yup he did, but there's a lot to suggest the other two are the chemical brothers. I believe Neil has said that he firmly believes the chemical brothers will be there.

Both chems and Alt j can only do sat and sun anyway. And if saturday chems is a shoe in, then it's either Alt-J or someone else for the sunday.

So I guess the only one that's really in doubt is Alt-J

Feels very deja vu to last year this.

Metallica on the other stage, big headliner falls through, band bumped to pyramid headliner.

Neil you have said/heard that Prince was never actually booked or in talks last year. What do you think/know happened with the Metallica bump up last year? Was it just them not sure if they could get around Soni's contract?

If it's someone they've been chasing a while it ain't gonna be macca is it.

And it won't be bowie Unles he fancies dicing with death

Outside p***** who is there? (On the assumption what Neil's heard is true)

C'mon people, it's obviously Tom Waits.

Joiners tweeted they've got a Glasto warm up announcement tomorrow. Unless it's Lionel, Foos or Kanye surely we'd have to have the announcement?

Hmm maybe, would Joiners really be privy to that though? Cos I would doubt the act would know of an announcement either...

alt-j could do Pyramid. I believe he also reckons Chems are doing Other on Sunday so alt-j probably will be on Pyramid (Gazza, no) so leaves a mystery Saturday headliner and there's nothing really concrete in there. No TBC's as we had last year for two of them so it's a bit of a leap to say we know them already.

If Metallica were being looked at to headline the Other it doesn't seem hugely far fetched that Florence could too. I'm not a fan of either which might be why Florence doesn't 'feel' like a Pyramid headliner to me and I don't know that her general appeal in the UK is much different from a Jake Bugg.

Now if you'll excuse me I'm off to perfect my Jedi mind tricks on Mr Bowie

metallica were always going to headline as the original plan, so I heard - tho the possibility of them playing Other was due to both the availability of other acts and their Soni contract as far as i can work out.

Really?! Wow. Last year was early, but that would surprise me if true. What's the point, so early?

Let me just check the 'live' BBC cams.

Nope, definitely not the case ;)

That webcam is broken more often than it's working. Hard to see as I'm on my phone but the sate looks like 2015-01-03?

Absolutely nobody left who could be speculated upon with any real likelihood. It's going to be Roger Nelson or somones getting bumped.

nah .... it's a venue for about 300 people, and they could have any random small act playing there as a glasto warm up

just seems odd they would self confirm someone for the festival UNLESS that act had the go ahead to be announced, maybe i'm clutching at straws tho

    • Yeah was via this
    • They appear to say on their IG posts that you can combine two discounts (so yes) but not three ie you cant also claim the resident discount.
