PJ Harvey confirmed

[mungo57]

someone please tell me an album to listen to please? I remember listening to the one about England shaking I think it was and not liking at the time..... I feel as though I should at least try and like PJ.

Bit of a piss take BMTH headlining above her though

[SwedgeAntilles]

Other sub is disappointing. Although the way Sunday is shaping up at the moment she might be the last act I watch before going for a wander during the headliners

She wouldn't play any lower than 3rd down you wouldn't think, I'd probably imagine her subbing, which if it's going to be Ellie G on the pyramid will be a massive crowd 

Yeah in terms of size I don't think she'd be lower than Other sub. Hopefully Ellie Goulding is subbing the Pyramid if so. The BMTH confirmation from Neil is pretty lame; was hoping they'd sub LCD Soundsystem. Just gotta hope that Disclosure info is correct and LCD are subbing someone.

Hoping to get as many as possible of Muse, Radiohead, Foals, Kendrick, LCD Soundsystem, PJ Harvey, The Last Shadow Puppets and Ice Cube with no clashes.

try stories from the city, stories from the sea. OR to bring you my love.

let england shake is unlike any of her other stuff really.

Coldplay and Bring me the Horizon = car park emptying stuff from Em E.

[JoeyT]

So ELO will finish around 5 o'clock which means a quick wee / ciderbus stop then casual wander to the other stage for PJ at 6.30.

I like the planning Emily put in to this.

I dont think Coldplay are. I think a barmy majority will lap it up.

Hopefully WH pulls out something special

[Andy0808 v5]

Gonna give her a shot, I'm sure most of you haven't got a hard on for her music for no reason. 

 

She's probably playing below BMTH because she's not rock n roll enough to jump onto and break a bands table at an awards show, all because they had a similar logo on their album to her. 

[Boss84]

Brilliant, never seen her before. Can't wait!

[GlastoSimon]

Great stuff. Although the slot she's been given is disappointing.

[FakeEmpire]

Other Stage is a very bizarre place for her.  I was certain she'd be high Pyramid or Park headliner.

I can't see her subbing BMTH.  I reckon she'll be 3rd down - same spot as Belle & Sebastian last year.

[Memory Man]

regardless of placing a fantastic confirmation and an unprecedented two in a week!

West Holts packing stuff from EW&F!! 

[ghandi]

Damn, not got a ticket so far this year and was thinking of not bothering in the resale, money, others in our group decided to bypass this year as we failed in October, but, damn I have wanted to see PJ during my successful 6 years in a row  , an hour of PJ hits would do me! May have to think again!

thanks mate, I am giving Let England Shake another go at the mo - I was less into experimental stuff then and more into just.... well metal really so that explains why I wasn't into it. It's ok. I will try the ones you mentioned - I know a song I do like by her called Long Snake Moan which I THINK is on Bring you my Love

[Keithy]

 Did do a mini fist punch this morning when I heard the news. Very happy with this news.

You might know down by the water, which is probably her biggest "hit", even though it was out 20 years ago or so!

Her new song the wheel is really good though, and it's certain she'll play it!

Let England Shake may be unlike much of her other stuff, Mungo, but it is bloody extraordinary...!

Mmm, and if the Park finishes early on Sunday like the past couple of years, West Holts has the potential to be rammed for someone like EWF.

The Park finished closer to midnight last year for Ryan Adams. I agree regardless though, if it is EWF on the West Holts, it's going to be packed.

it finished later than all the Other main stages last year for Ryan Adams

You're right both of you - it was 2013 and 2014 it was earlier. Cool. Explosions in the Sky would be a good finisher...

Oh Tuna! Can you imagine the faithful seeing out GF2016 at The Park with a stellar midnight-finishing set by EITS?

Can you? CAN YOU?!
