Acts Touring Around Glastonbury 2016

[thewayiam]

Get Billy Talent over imo

I would love that, JP or the slot ES played on Other stage the other year. I don't see it happening mind.

[ACNB]

Biffy Clyro are at Rock Am Ring on June 3rd. 

[Lubic]

Deftones would be incredible.  Think they'd pull a decent crowd at Glasto too. Destined for the other stage if it was to happen

[eFestivals]

if what I've just seen is genuine, acts on tour next summer around Glasto-time include...

Radiohead.
Pearl Jam
Gorillaz
Garbage
Lana Del Rey

yep - tho that's not my source, what i've seen hasn't had the pics branded.

It appears to be genuine, tho there's also something about how the pics are posed that makes me suspicious.

Radiohead not being on the top line of headliners is some what suspicious, that doesn't really look like the format of any programme/ad I've seen for Werchter in the past, but that's not to say they couldn't change 

[eFestivals]

yep, tho of course different countries rate the same acts in different ways.

There's no way Editors should be that high from a UK perspective, for example, tho they have a different impact over there.

Is it not a bit early for posters like that to be made when, if I remember rightly, Rock Werchter release a few bands at a time over several weeks?

Yep they headlined over there when I went a few years ago, played after Depeche Mode, was bizarre 

I'm going to remain suspicious of that for now, purely because if it's true il melt and probably panic and book up Werchter again

that's another of my suspicions.

Word that came with the pics said what's on the posters will be announced on 16th Nov, so that's the day we'll find out if it's genuine, I guess.

I can't see Radiohead playing a festival and not headlining anywhere in the world, really. But still no way they'd do Werchter and not Glastonbury so I'm happy to be proven wrong.

Why wouldn't they? They did last time.

Anyway, yeah I can't see them (or Editors) essentially subbing one of those bands at Werchter. Festileaks have posted up a few fake posters in the past couple of years and this is the worst one.

oh god please be real

Radiohead are not predictable.  Whoathunk they'd play V and not Glastonbury in 2006?

[FloorFiller]

predictably, it's fake. Twenty One Pilots are in America over those dates

Glastonbury wasn't on in 2006 so... everyone?

But I don't think Radiohead are as eager to return to the Pyramid as everyone here seems to believe. Them simply touring wouldn't be any sort of confirmation.

Primavera updated their Facebook photo yesterday, seems like they're going to announce something soon. 

[dentalplan]

Destroyer have a random show at KOKO in the middle of June. I dunno what it's meant to accompany; could do with being a week later.

Been a munch longer gap now than that would've been. Probably wanted to avoid becoming a house band like Coldplay coming back every few years.

Yeah that's fair, however I still for a multitude of reasons think Radiohead won't happen until the band or festival is ending, and hopefully that's not soon. Definitely don't think next year as they're apparently not touring in summer.

As for who is touring in summer; Beck has just been announced for Northside in Denmark the weekend before Glastonbury. Also UMO, but particularly Beck.

UMO!!!

Had imagined they might take a break after touring Multi-Love quite a lot but very happy if they'll be back around next year. That title track was one of my favourite songs in ages and didn't get to see them this year. So praying the chance comes around in 2016, a Glastonbury slot would be immense.

Beck would be fantastic too of course. Saw him before The Strokes at Hyde Park and he was a thousand times better than they were.
