and I won't be able to see Hot Chip. Bolded are acts i'm not missing!

Won't chemicals clash with a headliner?

[Starchild771]

There were no "stand out" acts for me listed on the 2014 line-up but I still enjoyed myself as much the previous year which had many more personal favorites playing. 2013 I was dashing from stage to stage, but with 2014 I did more wandering and discovered some awesome acts.

2015 and my no. 1 concern is the potential for brain-melting clashes. Nice line-up for funk-soul lovers with a little jazz thrown in too.

Won't chemicals clash with a headliner?

They are on the sunday night according to Neil! Hopefully not because I really wanna see the Chems

[newportcounty1]

Will Florence still play now she's broken her foot?

[Zero_Newnab]

Chems will likely clash with the unannounced third headliner

Will Florence still play now she's broken her foot?

She's already said she will.

Knew it would drop while I was at the pub.

My only questions on what I believe is a great lineup; are foals too big to still be announced? And why have they denied me my sweet sweet wombats

Still loads to be added. Kaisers weren't on this sheet last year and they headlined JP.

But I was always going to be surprised if we got Foals.

[Andeeroo]

On first glance, I wasn't overwhelmed. Having looked at it a bit more though, I'm really excited and happy with it. Better than last year's announcement for me and I thought last year was the best initial announcement since I had been going.

Lots I'm really wanting to see and lots to look into. What else do you need?

[Fivefingerjohn]

Some phat acts there

[Martin Ashford]

No Swift, but I'm really happy with loads of those acts. Now for a ticket!

If you want help let me know. You deserve it

[Rose-Colored Boy]

Mark Ronson got a live act yet?

Had one last time he played Glasto

Flying Lotus was supposed to be a Bestival exclusive, so I was surprised at that. Ecstatic too!

La Roux was supposed to be a Latitude exclusive as well... appreciate she's probably not in the same league for most people but still, happy me

[Martin Ashford]

The top of the line up poster looks like a hint at pink floyd...

Of course! OMG if it is......

Anyone else think last years first poster is a lot better?

[mattiloy]

really poor first announcement. glastonbury has the power to be a taste maker but i find year on year it panders ever more to the dull homogenised rubbish that the music execs and their pals over at radio 1 force feed the nation.

it looks like a v-festival lineup from about 5 years ago.

Does it? Apart for the central column, which was always going to be the most mainstream acts, it doesn't look anything like a V lineup. If anything the columns on either side look more like Latitude lineups than V lineups.

Personally I love it, but hey, everyone's got different tastes

Are you kidding me?

[Martin Ashford]

I looked at this earlier and Motorhead jumped out in big bold yumminess then I saw Deadmous and Suede and I had the OMFG moment. That's a cracking line up for me.

Martin, you never cease to amaze me. How anyone could like Motorhead AND Deadmaus is beyond me. More power to you!

[highviolet]

Much better than last years first poster IMO
