I have the same question... I am actually listen to one and... or there are thing that I dont know or how come that it features SNOPP DOG, CHROMEO, PALMA VIOLETS and some other acts which are not announced. Are they actually ggoing? have they self confirmed?

But then you're not finding anything new ...

Playlist radio, discover feature and this forum is good for that plus I tend to go through a lot of the acts on the lineup prior to adding them to my list. I just don't want a shit load of songs i'm not going to like. I don't go to gigs much anyway so I tend to go and see the artists i like and know anyway.

Cheers guys, I do my best. Spend waaay too much time on the playlist to be honest, but I love listening to it and finding new acts (or old acts' new stuff), and do find putting it together enjoyable (most of the time). I'm always blown away by the range and quality of the acts that GFL get to perform in those fields for our pleasure.

I'd happily follow another one if there were a good one one out there, but most are just 'Spotify's top tracks', or people's personal selections of artists. I want one that is (a) comprehensive in terms of acts (including the self-confirmed), and (B) features the songs they actually play live. I don't want to get in to an act's old stuff then turn up and find they only actually play the new album. Plus acts are usually pretty good at knowing their own best stuff.

The only Snoop Dogg track is one on which Pharrell Williams sings, which he plays live regularly. If you look at the playlist you'll see it's amongst other Pharrell tracks. Chromeo pulled out last year and tweeted that an appearance this year was "looking good". Palma Violets self-confirmed. I post details of what's been added (and occasionally removed) in this thread.

All and any comments and suggestions welcome.

BSR, you do a fantastic job. Can I buy you a pint to say thank you? If you're going to the Efesters' meet at the Ridge and Furrow at 6pm on the Weds evening then stand by.

And wear your best suit of armour. No need to bring the wandering band of minstrels, though, as there'll be more than enough other musicians...

I use BSR's marvellous creation and also create my own one. I give everything BSR has added a quick listen and if I like it, or think there's a chance I could grow to like it, it gets transferred to my own one.

I know I'm probably narrow minded but there are always a few I know are not for me, and never will be, after about 10 seconds.

    • Not necessarily but it should be, Download have a habit of messing it uo when others get the bookings on point. Good Charlotte I doubt are playing 3rd down and that too 3 that day while dreamy is too strong. I think you'd have one another day to help sell weekend tickets. I also doubt Papa Roach play. 
    • Here's a bit of a wild stab, few placings may be off, and for all I know half of these won't actually be touring next year, but screw it, it's a bit of fun   Pyramid: Sabrina Carpenter, Phoebe Bridgers, TBA (Florence + The Machine), Garbage, The Last Dinner Party, Interpol, Alex James Britpop Classical Other: Chase & Status, Teddy Swims, Clairo, The Kooks, Zara Larsson, Kingfishr, Sports Team, Orbital West Holts: Robyn, Baby Keem, De La Soul, Deltron 3030, JID, Dua Saleh, kwn, Daniela Latila Woodsies: Bonobo, Darkside, TBA (Tame Impala), Laufey, Warmduscher, Wednesday, The Lottery Winners, The Royston Club, Florence Road Park: Patti Smith, Super Furry Animals, Slayyyter, The Cardigans, Skye Newman, Kelly Lee Owens, Teen Jesus & The Jean Teasers   Pyramid: Harry Styles, The xx, Richard Ashcroft, The Pogues, Jessie J, Sigrid, Travis Other: Rosalia, Sombr, Mitski, Alex Warren, Holly Humberstone, Cat Burns, Pale Waves, Yard Act West Holts: Basement Jaxx, Elyanna, Clipse, L’Imperatrice, Nation of Language, Jim Legxacy, Yazmin Lacey, RIP Magic Woodsies: Suede, Chvrches, Bleachers, MUNA, The Cribs, Keo, Bleech 9:3, The Lilacs Park: MARINA, Magdalena Bay, Jacob Alon, TBA (Lily Allen performs West End Girl), Getdown Services, Isaac Wood, Snail Mail, Madra Salach Pyramid: Sam Fender, Hozier, David Byrne, Cher, Obongjayar, David Gray, Billy Ocean Other: Doja Cat, Deftones, Addison Rae, Ren, Viagra Boys, Maisie Peters, The Reytons, Hard Life West Holts: Kano, Thievery Corporation, Angine De Poitrine, Thee Sacred Souls, Brooke Combe, Sasha Keable, Master Peace Woodsies: The Wombats, Metronomy, Geese*, Dry Cleaning, EsDeeKid, Sienna Spiro, Cowboy Hunters, Radio Free Alice Park: Big Thief, Laura Marling, MJ Lenderman, Richard Dawson, Oklou, Maruja, Dead Dads Club, Ratboys   *There's always one band booked for Woodsies that ends up being massively under-billed and gets shut down really early. They'd be better off playing somewhere like Other sub, but I could see the G getting them to play a smaller stage while it's still possible
    • Another Kraftwerk one for me today, as just back from seeing them.    
    • Completed my 2026 survey. Put down Super Furry Animals as my most wanted for next year but suspect the moment has gone for that. Popped a big shopping list in the box for who else you would like to see. 🙂
