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.

    • Jack White a shout for next year? New album out soon. 
    • Steven Wilson Jr touring would be a good fit.   Brian Fallon (Gaslight Anthem) as he’s touring too next year.   Royston Club. Kingfshr. Bleachers. Spacey Jane. Gang Of Youths. Overpass
    • 90,000 on a single for day or over the weekend?   if it was for the whole weekend that’s disastrous   Given camping didn’t sell out unless they in effect transferred a lot of camping captivity to Chappell Roan day tickets 90,000 is absolute capacity there I think, so it would be hard to believe   i think it’s from the year before but the TPD tv footage when the killers are headlining makes it look like it’s at best half full
    • A part of me thinks weirdly they might hold off on Chaka/Robbie until they have a year where nobody else who fits the bill is available. This slot takes a very specific set of criteria, and I can't imagine they're flushed with options who are on tour and would take the smaller payday every year. Both Chaka and Robbie have expressed interest in doing it, so they're bankers for a year where fewer options are available. Which may well be 2027.
