Acts Touring Around Glastonbury 2016

[Mardy]

Hehehe, reading this makes them sound like the James of the US music scene.

 

[Gnomicide]

Saw my first Park headliner on the Sunday this year, lovely way to end the festival. Wilco in that slot would be perfect.

[The Nal]

more by choice though. don't seem to want big venues. they sold out 4 of those venues in the NYC area when they went on sale recently and a 5th not too far away in New Haven on day of sale. if they wanted to, they could add more and they would sell out too.

very loyal fan base....some of whom are surprised at the rising ticket prices of some of these Brooklyn and Capital Theatre gigs in NY mind you.

Ah ok! Interesting. They're still worth $50 though!

 

[Wooderson]

On their night, few bands can touch them.

[Lubic]

Manchester Albert Hall is a lovely venue. Possibly my new favourite. It's not Apollo / Brixton / Hammersmith sized though. It's around 2000 capacity I think.

[Mardy]

I'm not absolutely sold on the new album, it's not up there with their heights, but there's a lovely version of Random Name Generator on that KEXP sessions thing from the other month

[Mardy]

[the wonderwhy]

Wilco and Joanna Newsom ticked off as Park headliners, then. Who's gonna be the third?

Twilight Sad init

[Gnomicide]

Cheers for posting that Mardy, just watched it through, lovely stuff.

[Comfy Bean]

 It's on SeeTickets.

Yeah I think he dangled himself as a headliner this summer but it didn't really work out so he'll be back around to scoop up some cash from subbing all the big fests he can (and maybe headline Kendal Calling too).

Could kendal afford Noel G? 

Will be interesting to see if they can top this year's line up. He would go down a storm if he played KC.

[5co77ie]

this guy's a bit good:

 

 

and he put in 44 festival appearances in 2015

[Mezhyp1]

Few European festivals announcing some names this morning, mostly Chilli Peppers headlining, but quite a few names for RaR announced, not many relevant mind you

Deftones would be the upmost wishful thinking

[the wonderwhy]

#GetDeftonesToGlastonbury 

[FloorFiller]

probably very unlucky, but Deftones would be an incredible booking. where would they even play? sub JP?

here's them playing third down on Other in 1998

 

[jackarmy]

Expect Major Lazer could well return.

[Gnomicide]

Deftones or Korn would be most welcome additions.

[dentalplan]

A bit higher than that. They're playing a sold out (or it was until more tickets went onsale) Wembley Arena next month. Would think JP headline or third down Other (again). But they're gonna play Download and probably just Download.

Expect Major Lazer could well return.

Yeah quite possible. High slot on the Other Stage.

yeah i was just thinking that Glastonbury would never book an act like them to headline a stage, but i suppose we got Enter Shikari this year. agree that it'll just be Download for them though - hopefully subbing Rammstein as that might sway me in to getting a day ticket

[sisco]

Biffy Clyro about very close to Glastonbury!!!! Get them there

[Mezhyp1]

They could probably headline JP, they'd definitely pull a big enough crowd for that, fuck me, that would be unmissable 

[majormajormajor]

korn. lol.

[TomViolence]

Would take Deftones, Sabbath and Billy Talent. Extremely unlikely I know.

[Mash011]

Get Billy Talent over imo

[_daveyboy]

fully on board with the get deftones to glastonbury shouts.

[mungo57]

Would love Deftones at Glasto.

Brilliant live.
