So is it just a rumour that it's a male solo act or is neil pretty certain it is?

I've had two bits of different info which should be good, and suggests a solo act (or solo name with band), a male, and that the festival have been after for a number of years. There don't seem to be too many obvious possibilities for that.

Then again, the info might be complete bollocks, and it's nothing of that. :P

maybe it is a tad harsh to call them names. As has been discussed on here before, Glastonbury is very unique and is hard to understand until you actually attend.

Perfectly reasonable in my opinion. The type of people who'll spit their dummy out over there being no announcement are not the sort of people I'd like to bump in to at the festival.

If people can't afford it then you can hardly blame them.

Surely only a matter of time before someone posts up a clip of Flo & The Machine murdering 'Ain't no doubt' by Mr Nail. Can't you just hear her doing guest vocals on this?

Lots of people supposedly not paying up because of lack of line up if twitter is to be believed.

Good news for resale people.

These people can't have been before and if they have, they aren't doing it right

Tea leaves and tarot cards again Mr. G?

hahahaha. And oooof, the stuff of nightmares. That's her encore right there, alone on stage, barefoot with a guitar, belting that out.

I think it's better if there's some new people there though. I'm not saying get all newbies in and kill off the old crowd. But it's nice to have at least 10% never been before wide eyed youngsters not knowing how to deal with what they're witnessing.

We were all newbies once.

Some highlights:

Are @GlastoFest gunna let the the payment close b4 releasing the #glastonburylineup ?

@emilyeavis has really dropped the ball this year. Glastonbury line up still unannounced? Ticket refund here I come.

@emilyeavis If you're going to jack up the price then the least you can do is promise quality. It's been earlier last few years.

Are we meant to pay for Glastonbury before we see the line up because Kanye is already ruining my weekend.

Absolutely. I just find it hard to believe that someone who has been before and really appreciates what a special place it is, would not pay the balance based on the lineup not being released

Exactly!! I've paid mine and so have most of my mates. A few very reluctant to part with the best part of £200 as being students that's a lot of money!

It's a bit shit though isn't it, they're essentially using the deposit scheme as some sort of reservation so they can make up their spoilt minds when they decide what they want to do... meanwhile there are people who would go without even one band announced, struggling to get tickets as a result.

    • wombats have been doing that and selling quite well, couple of really strong support acts could make it work. 
    • Yes. September still a very long away, keep the faith.
    • With Di Artze doing Nova Rock next year, if Foos are there too I think that puts pay to SOAD. I would think they would get SOAD if they could rather than Di Arte again 3 years later.
