When Emily Eavis said "all of the predictions are wrong" what it's transpired to mean is "No one wanted this band to headline".


I'd have rather Florence headlined, I wouldn't have gone to see it but at least I could have understood the thought behind it. I'd rather they gave someone a leg up than let some tired old mod group who've already done it have another try.

Luckily I know that it's not all about the headliners!

doubt The Vaccines are gonna clash with Foos - third on Other that day is my best guess so probably finish a while before Foos are on

Yeah, I imagine a fair few will go over to the Pyramid after The Vaccines ready for Foo's that night. The issue I'm going to have is being FF will be on for 2hrs most likely, I'll miss half of the Rudimental set either way and the bit worth seeing will likely come at the end.

yeah usually a band walking off stage is at the end - i assume that was the bit worth seeing you talk about?

This but with Suede on the Saturday, I beg the powers that be to put suede on the Saturday

That is my biggest concern too, I'm so hoping they're Saturday clashing with Kanye!

You're priceless, BonScott.

As in, you have no worth.

For the first time since AC/DC were a no go for Glasto i feel excited about the festival

If The Who is just a smokescreen for fucking Taylor Swift i will not be a happy bunny

It definitely leaves a bitter taste this booking I must say. I think to do that to your fans is a disgrace.

I have not seen the Who, but I won't be there to see them on the sunday.

I'm 0/3 for Pyramid headliners this year.

I need stage splits before I can think about what I'm doing, Hot Chip will probably be my friday option. If SFA are headlining somewhere, that will change. If Despacio is there again, I will try and have a night in there too.

Pyramid headliners though, not for me.

Such an overreaction. A band you don't like so overwhelming criticism. If a band you liked did it you wouldn't care less.

Furthermore you choose to watch hot chip. Hot Chip!

I think if The Who do headline it'd be a great night.

Even though i made no secret of the fact i only bought a ticket incase AC/DC were headlining i have no doubt i will have a great time and want to go again next year

Well you should of just put your ticket back in the pot for someone who actually wanted it then you muppet! The hint is, AC/DC is not a £225 ticket, Glasto is, didn't exactly save yourself any money did you :L

Who said I didn't like the who? My music of choice is what most would describe as "classic rock". Treating people with such contempt means I wouldn't watch them.

Realistically, I wanted Blur as I have never seen them.

Hot Chip, I've not seen either. Rather than Foo Fighters who I have (and were ok - nothing more), yeah I would watch them. SFA or Suede would change that though.

Would be nice if the who did try an organise something for those travelling to Paris that may lose out though (let's perhaps give the band themselves a chance to say something about that (if any of this actually turns out to be true of course:-)..

Last part of the puzzle, Chris Martin putting on a free Coldplay gig for ticket holders to make them 'happy' :D

    • Muse new album out soon , European tour announcement for Nov and Dec, no Spanish date and north American tour starts in July and in North America for all of July and August. So primavera and Glastonbury 
    • Well he is on a rape charge, don't see that one as controversial.    Although Hakimi is in Morocco squad.   
    • Electric Callboy just said they'll be touring here next year. I'm not sure there's a poster for it though. I'll look when I'm near some next.      He said we'll see you at Download at a gig before any of the band. Presumably he was trolling. They're in Austria at the moment and Germany tomorrow with a week's break and more shows in Germany. Whilst not impossible to come back here and then go over there again, it seems unlikely. 
    • Thomas Partey, knocked back by Canadian immigration now.
    • I'm sure someone can update you on the clashfinder, and it will be pretty accurate by the time the festival comes around. It's a large flat-ish arena with main stage in the open air, no best side I'd say. Leadmill (3rd stage medium tent) is at the back of the main arena, T'Other (2nd stage big tent) 5 min walk round the corner. At full capacity walking around can take a bit more time though. I noticed that The Enemy are scheduled to not fully overlap with Wolf Alice, so you could catch part of their set too.   You can walk around anywhere with a beer, with most bars the usual mass market stuff, but one nice craft ale tent, back of the arena near the Leadmill stage. A main meal will set you back £10-15, but cheaper snacks also available. Expect a pint to be £7-8. Possibly a bit more this year as prices everywhere are increasing.   It's fairly easy to get to from the town centre using the tram, although can be busy at peak times / very busy at curfew. If you like a walk, it's approx 40 mins to Kelham Island (lots of indy venues) and probably an hour to the city, or catch an Uber. There will be loads of 'fringe' music events on around the city right through the weekend. Most are free. Have a wonderful trip, enjoy the festival, and your stay in our city!
