I always hope for a bit more of the old school indies stuff to be there but sometimes I wonder whether I should be going to that Butlins Shiiine on weekender instead!  More my era like (bit no doubt full of dickheads)

Yeah, I'm always up for seeing a few bands on those lineups (there's one in Bognor with Suede headlining this year) but there also seems to be a lot of filler IMO. 

Plus, not to be a snob or anything, but it is in fucking Butlins 

[CaledonianGonzo]

The pain of being in a Pontins breakfast buffet soon starts to fade as you realise that - finally, after all these long, long years - you're actually getting to see The Longpigs in the flesh.

Would love and thought TV On The Radio would be making an appearance.  Only tour date they have listed at the moment is for BST with Massive Attack the Friday after the festival.  Surely will be playing were great on the Other Stage a few years back when they whipped out Ghostbusters theme song

Yeah Tv on the Radio would be one of must sees if added.

Tbf Massive Attack on their own would make me extremely happy.

If a few of these got added then the lineup would go from good to brilliant for me:

Tame Impala (NA Tour ends on the 16th then Poland on the 29th)
DIIV (playing festivals in Greece and Spain the week before)
The Kills (Spain on the 16th then nothing until Luxembourg on the 29th)
TV on the Radio (Only tour date is BST 1st July)
Big Deal (In Bristol on the 19th then nothing til late July)
Beach House (probably highly unlikely now but they don't have any other dates that weekend so still clutching)

Gutted that Steve Mason isn't going to be there. His album is my favourite of the year so far. 

Sorry if I've missed this but is it a definite no or just not in the first announcement? Would love for him to be there

[Harmonic Prospector]

Somebody said on this thread that he confirmed on his Twitter that he wasn't going to be there this year. 

[Amy Lawn]

Shame, I've got a lot of time for Steve Mason.One of my most memorable Glastonbury moments was stumbling upon his secret after hours Crows Nest set on the Sunday of 2013. Saw out my first Glastonbury in a small room crammed full of people singing along to Dry The Rain.

[the wonderwhy]

Beach House are the main one for me - release two of my favourite albums from last year. 

I'm assuming they'd be up the top of the Park tho, and the headline slots are already looking pretty clash-tastic. Sunday would suit me, if the gods are reading...

Yeah feel like they would have been on the first poster if they were there, unfortunately.

I just find Beach House so hard to place. I had them as subbing the Park, possibly headlining, but I'm starting to think they could easily play 3rd or 4th down and not seem out of place. I'm probably either completely wrong or clutching straws a little too much or both . I'll be absolutely ecstatic if they are announced though .

Everything Everything are playing in the Netherlands on the Friday so I think that makes them unlikely 

[Wallace]

Anyone have any idea on the chances of Biffy Clyro playing?  My wife is desperate to see them and interestingly they're playing Belfast (where we're coming from) on the Saturday of Glasto.

pretty much zero unless they show up as a secret act (again) - headlining Reading/Leeds as an exclusive

Ah I didn't realise they were an exclusive there, fair enough.

[TheRedSeat]

Varying degrees of likelihood (mostly unlikely) but any combination of 

J5

Richmond Fontaine

Felice Brothers

The Coral

Paul Heaton

Hold Steady

Kendrick

Nathaniel Rateliff

 

would be just fine with me

 

 

 

[feline]

Two I'd love to see are the Stone Roses and Kendrick. But seeing as both are pretty hyped acts I'm not sure there's any chance of this
