Is time running backwards for you because you're a black hole? 

Jesus christ, I meant Friday not Sunday. What's scary is that it took me a while to figure out what the joke was there!

I got a science joke in, I'm well chuffed

Are we still talking about acts touring around Glastonbury? Who knows.

But how about this lot?

Biffy Clyro, Stereophonics, Tallest Man on Earth

Any luck you reckon?

Underworld would be great. 

[Badlands]

Tapestry, The River and Songs in the Key of Life being played I'm full in London this summer. If you're doing repeat headliners Eavii, do them properly.

You say that as if Springsteen doing almost two hours of The River at Glastonbury would be roundly appreciated.

Not particularly around Glastonbury but 

And 

for anyone interested

Not sure if they've already been mentioned on here (there are a lot of pages to trawl through) but Ocean Colour Scene are floating around.

Must be in with a shot for the prestigious "Other Stage past-it Britpop opener" slot surely?

Both seem good shouts.

I actually quite like the idea of Travis doing it. A very pleasant way to open the festival.

And to link this to Glastonbury-ish, JMJ is a festival exclusive at Blue Dot so won't be appearing.

What gets me is, they did that tour 3 years ago. I saw them at the Brixton Academy doing it.

I think it would be West Holts but I'd prefer a later slot in Avalon. Slight possibility of an early Other Stage show.

Didnt they do it at 20 years and now 25? I'm sure it was 5 years ago i saw them do it at the Albert Hall

Think i would prefer a later start myself mate, don`t know why exactly but i can just see it being a much much better gig in the dark.

Either way though i`ll be happy just to get them there after last years disappointment for everyone (i only found them this year and love em)

Placebo arena tour starts in October, so this year's festival season will probably come too soon. 2017 shows to be announced at a later date, so maybe next year. The FB post confirms they will be playing earlier material they haven't played in a while

Big Deal's uk tour ends the sunday before Glastonbury. http://myticket.co.uk/artists/big-deal

I doubt they'll be booked for Glasto but I'm there. Great tour for me with a lot of stuff not played nowadays to be included.

Bluedot festival at Jodrell bank has plenty I'd like to see at Worthy Farm.... DJ Yoda goes to the Sci Fi movies. That I need to see.

The place is awesome inspiring. None of my mates are interested and there is no one that I like enough to to go on my own.

There are plenty of acts I want to see, but none that mean I will spend money that I need to save.

Seems to be taken over by the Warehouse project, which means a change to the type of acts. Wish I'd seen the flaming lips and New Order there.
