New to me from the playlist that I'm really enjoying are John Fairhirst and also The Cadbury Sisters. Very different from each other but I'll try to catch both this year.

I'll give them a shot! I'm trying to push myself out of my comfort zone, so I'll give any recommendation a go

I love listening to 'Beans on Toast' when it's sunny and I'm feeling festivally, even if he did do a track on the fact Glastonbury wouldn't let him play (but they are letting him play this year)

A great laugh and story teller that bloke. M.D.M....

I do love a bit of Chromeo, so I've already been on that like a dog on hot chips!

Speaking of hot chips, I can't wait to see Hot Chip again. Stalked them for years now.

Will definitely pop the others in my playlist too

I love a bit of Hot Chip. I randomly met Al Doyle at Glasto at about 3am last year - bloody nice bloke.

Was on site today dropping of some gear to the guys who run the Festibell glamping site & there speculation is the stone roses but I think that's a semi educated guess.

that made me lol james

No joke intended - one of the more absurd suggestions of the last 48 hours, I thought. Then I was reminded that Beyonce has headlined and Kanye's going to. Maybe I'm wrong. MCR couldn't be worse than that.

Bowie and "reasonably likely" don't belong in the same sentence without any other qualifiers.

It's reasonably likely that David Bowie won't play Glastonbury ever again.

Seems to work, without qualifiers.

I'm such a pedant.

I was really looking forward to them but found it a bit of a let down. Ian Brown after was much better. Opened with i wanna be adored>sally cinnamon>this is the one>made of stone (if I remember rightly). The place went nuts.

The great Basement Jaxx or Ian Brown debate of 2005!

Not close, obviously, and despite being up to my knees in sticky mud, Brown's set that night was a top ten (maybe top five) Glasto gig ever for me. It might have been number one if he hadn't been yanked off stage as Mani played the opening bass line for I Am The Resurrection (and if it hadn't been for Blur 09, Fogerty 07 or Cave 13!!).

Perhaps I mean modifiers. I'll admit that my grammar's not quite what it could be...

That really wasn't the point I was trying to make. There's nothing wrong with your grammar at all. I was merely pointing out that "Bowie" and "reasonably likely" very much belong together in a sentence, albeit a miserable sentence most of us would rather not hear.

Sort of my point, in that all I was getting at is that there needs to be something like an "isn't" somewhere in the mix.

    • 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…
