It's the hope that kills you.... 

it's okay. i can take it. and if they don't play this year i think i'll finally be able to admit that they're just not gonna headline Glastonbury again

NOS Alive is looking rather juicy, especially with the addition of Radiohead! 

Might be my first time witnessing the almighty Yorke and co. and certainly wouldn't be the last.

Chem Bros, Hot Chip, Pixies and Foals too!

Yeah, I'm definitely there unless tickets sell out before I have the funds. Still another headliner to come too!

We have been swaying with NOS Alive, been temped to go to it in the past as well, I think the heat is potentially off putting, there's absolutely no chance you could camp in that, I've only ever camped at European festivals twice, both at Werchter, and it's bad enough. Lisbon looks nice though, so I'm considering it but with a hotel for sure 

[FloorFiller]

wish all these festivals were just a little further away from Glastonbury, because those are some awesome lineups that Radiohead are topping elsewhere in Europe

Most of the younger generation don't know anything by Radiohead post OK Computer.

 

Sounds borderline pretentious, but it's true.

Aaaaaabsoluuutely

Yeah camping in that heat is a non-starter for me too, but have you seen the prices? The festival ticket alone only comes to £90 but you can get 5 nights in a hostel in Lisbon as well for way under £200. Agreed about Lisbon mate, looks stunning - always wanted to go so this is the perfect opportunity.

I'm a bit miffed that Primavera is at the start of June, that would be my ideal one, but I think NOS is a great compromise. Even discounting Radiohead, there's Pixies, Chemical Brothers and Hot Chip all who I'm yet to see.

Just hoping Glasto pulls out LCD, PJ and then some of the standouts from the Primavera undercard. Then I can have the best of both.

I thought that too but camping is actually fine. The campsite is full of trees so it's shaded. I've had worst cases of tent sweat at Glastonbury.Added to that Lisbon is a cracking city, the festival is really cheap and beer in the campsite was about 2 euros a pint.

They've been confirmed for Lollaplooza in Chicago 28th-31st July and two other north American festivals, not sure what that means for their Glastonbury chances but I think if they are playing it could be announced pretty soon

Chicago? North american festivals? Where? http://www.wasteheadquarters.com/schedule

[jonodillieono]

Looking at that NOS lineup, Radiohead and Hot Chip are on the same day on different stages... If they clashed it'd be disgusting

It was based on a report by COS, I didn't realise its still to be confirmed

I got offered NOS on my way home tonight. JUST SAY NO KIDS!

So these guys playing then do we think? What's the latest headliner rumours? Do we believe Emily that the line up might get released pre resale? So many questions but I'm out of the loop...

Have a look at the primavera line up. That's what we're getting. For almost certain...

Hmmm. If that's correct I might throw my hat back in the ring for tickets. Was all over primavera until my boss told me I couldn't have the time off

A couple of thousand in the resale though? No chance. 

[SwedgeAntilles]

Being Scottish and of pasty white complexion I'd like to have the Primavera lineup but in the rainy mud bath of the farm.

Can you get the time off of that nos one in Lisbon? I dunno if you've been to Lisbon before but it's my favorite European city by far. Wonderful in every way. And much cheaper than Barcelona!

As for my earlier chat, I doubt we'll end up getting even 1% of that line up don't worry!

It's camping in the heat though isn't it? Will look at the dates but if it's in school holidays I've basically got no chance. 

[scaryclaireyfairy]

ZMG, I'd be happy to help you in the resale.  Though IF Radiohead were playing, I'd hope they'd not announce them til after then.  There's only one thing nearly as grim as Glasto ticket day and that's Radiohead ticket day so the combination could be horrific.

When/where did she say we might get some lineup before resale?

It was reported on 6 music. Said she "hoped to" reveal some. Probably won't like. 

Thanks Claire but as I'm still very much on the fence I think there's people who have been steadfast since October that deserve help more  If I can find an alternative I like I may well do that. Just annoying as Primavera would have been perfect. 

Nos looks alright but not a lot of line up out yet. Definitely an option.

Actually the story was reported on efestivals:
