I wouldn't say I was local as such - just someone who knows some people. As for the lack of anything, it is odd. Is this the latest a line up has been announced before?

Nah, always used to be in June.

In 2009, it was May 25.

It has only been April-ish time since 2010.

To be fair if you got a ticket and have been dead excited about going then I can't see any reason for missing the payment date

because people are stupid (and also might have other things going on in their lives right now - a few reminders here and there wouldn't go amiss, just in case)

Yes- the "big" acts are either staying quiet or they are none existent.

Not quite true. Florence and the Machine, Ben Howard, Paloma Faith, Alabama Shakes and Frank Turner all gave the game away and they'll all be in big slots, one of them probably subbing the Pyramid. Edited by Zac Quinn

Has anyone ever looked back at a previous Glastonbury they've been to and thought fuck...why did I see that band instead of another? Mines Glasto 1999...saw Basement Jaxx headline Other Stage while David Bowie was on Pyramid. Regret!

Last year they must have thought everybody was retarded, because they made 4 tweets about the deadline ( Had too go back and check)

something weird is going on

I've heard Bowie in 99 was a bit of a non-event.

Oh yeah I mean I don't doubt peoples stupidity or forgetfulness, I think I often forget that not everyone with a ticket to pay off is a Glastonbury obsessive.

Did not know any of these self confirmed? Flo laughed when she was asked. All the rest are not as big as I'm thinking when I say big self confirmations I mean surprise confirmations. You look at all them and none of them are a surprise. I just presumed they would be there somewhere anyway.

    • Hot on the heels of outdoor gig number 1, the second arrived quickly! Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds in Malahide last night (lovely sunny evening for it!). As usual, fantastic gig (ebbed and flowed from tender to feral). Since they aren't touring an album it was very different to the Wild God shows from last year, with a bunch of tracks that hadn't been played in a good while wheeled out. Highlights for me were a blistering rendition of Hiding All Away (that merged into the end of White Elephant) and a touching interpretation of A Rainy Night in Soho to close the set (well after curfew!). @Superscally, still nothing from Dig, Lazarus, Dig!!! (they really must not like that album!)    
    • I’m putting the 2026 code and it’s not applying the discount. Does somebody know why?
    • I think I’ve asked this before, but do we know why this is a ‘never happen’ one? I understand with Queen and Duran Duran, but I’ve never seen anything written saying one way or another if they’d do it. Would be an incredible get.
    • Here we goooo!   I never thought I'd say this at Prima Porto, famous for its rainy weather... I wish it'd be a bit colder ;D
    • I saw an interview the other day with Simon and he was asked about Glastonbury legends spot and he did say they consider themselves headliners and also said something like "The legends slot is a kind of headline slot" The actual wording might be slightly different but it gave an indication that maybe?
