Hmmm, this saying different stuff to his RA page:-

It's hard to know. It does seem a bit suspect.

John grant is in apparently 

Excellent news if true

That RA event in Iceland is the week before, so hopefully it's true!

Excellent! Thought he would be there but nice to see it confirmed.

Is there many big festivals left for The 1975 left to do btw? I'd say Glasto is an absolute dead cert if they're saying they have a big one still to announce.

[wozwebs]

Asked Gaz Brookfield on Sunday at a gig if he was playing and he said he hasn't had the call yet. Usually a dead cert.

I was at this gig too. I'm fairly sure he'll be there. His tour schedule seems to allow for it. Fantastic gig though, may well see him again at Glastonbury (clashes permitting).

Same here. Great gig and a definite "come to Glastonbury" reference from John Grant.

Hope he'll bring Richard Hawley and Budgie

[sloseph]

He had Budgie with him at the Brighton gig in November so I suspect they'll be together for a while longer 

I really hope comes to Glastonbury, I'd love to see him again

You never know. It looked as if Sinead was going to be with him in 2015.

Mc Spee just confirmed to us that they will play this year. No surprise as Dreadzone play every year

[eFestivals]

You can add mystery jets and dreadzone to the self confirmed.

Mystery jets said to not tell anyone.

[Andeeroo]

Good stuff Neil. Haven't seen Mystery Jets since 2008. Not sure if they've played G since?

Regardless, that's great news!

[VisionOfLove]

Amazing news about Mystery Jets. Also haven't seen them since 2008 at Leeds fest. Loved them then and the new album is great!

Excellent news on both counts

Saw him a few times over the last few years.  He's bloody brilliant.

The King Blues are playing, had a chat with Itch last night before their Norwich gig. They are playing the Leftfield stage, absolutely killed it last night so good to have them back.

Wow, this would be great and it'd be a superb stage for them.

I have just left the King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard Gig in Manchester.

I asked the bassist of the support act, YAK if they were doing any festivals...

He said they are doing leeds/reading and last week were confirmed to be doing Glastonbury. John Peel Tent. He didn't know what day.

Great! They're excellent.

Had no idea they were supporting Gizzard actually - bet that was fun.

From their interview in QRO magazine ...

 

QRO: I’m excited that this year will have you guys touring for this album. Something that I don’t think most people have picked up on is that you don’t have to tour for this album if you didn’t want to. It wouldn’t be farfetched to say that if you didn’t want to tour this album, you wouldn’t ‘have to’ in the way most musicians do for albums. Do you feel part of this upcoming tour came from a desire you felt to play live while you were making these songs? Did that desire at all inspire how the album was made?

MK: Yeah, especially Glastonbury, man. In my head, I’d think of fucking Glastonbury, man.

AT: I’d be in the control room going, “Where’s Miles? I need him in here to do a bloody vocal!” and I’d find him air guitar-ing with the bloody mic stand, yelling tracks. [laughs] He’s already at bloody Glastonbury.

Brilliant news! Saw Yak twice last year and they were superb both times, incredibly good fun.

Also seeing them supporting the Gizzard in Camden, a frankly stonking double bill.

Value for money wise, it has been one of the best gigs I have been to in ages. King Gizzard were superb. Better than Glastonbury '15. A few too many over excited kids getting on stage - but they were doing no harm.

I had never heard of YAK previously. They were really good. I will be watching them on the farm

You are in for a treat. I have just had a great Monday night's entertainment
