I don't think Glasto tends to book an act unless they've a new album out ( like James).

nope, people say this but time and time again there's acts playing with no new album out.

it generally tends to be the case, as with most festivals, as acts go on tour when they've an album to promote.

Bastille and Two Door Cinema Club are two bands announced for this years festival that don't have a new album out (we only know there is a new album on the shelf, but no release date) and I assume there are many more cases like this on this year's line up

He did say they 'tend' to book acts with new albums. Then in the next sentence, you also said 'it generally tends to be the case'. Yet you also disagreed with him? :P

When are The Kills and Editors being announced then? :ph34r:

 

Means we're agonisingly  close to the festival now though with the smaller areas announcing, Ahhhhh!

The Kills are a shoo in surely. Ordered my deluxe gatefold Ash & Ice the other day!

Hopefully, I think they're quite hard to place in the lineup though, High JP or Mid Other. The two tracks released so far are very promising! Really looking forward to it.

    • I got in for £11.25 in the end, which was absolutely ridiculously good value, and made the queues and overselling of the venue much more tolerable! Sniping in on other people’s unwanted tickets on the day of an event might become my new hobby I think 🥳
    • Ann and Nancy Wilson are planning a final world tour for HEART starting next year. They were never at Glastonbury. They should do it. 
    • sub yes I could see but I don't think they get 1hr 15, a headliner starting at 18:15 though is unlikely. Even the recent co-headlines that have had like 1hr 15 then a 1hr 30 after were on 8pm or just before, you are trailing behind more than 1.5 hours then. In that scenario some 3rd down bands are only starting at 18:15 and some haven't lol. I agree they won't not book them due to this but it won't be 6 headliners. It would be 5 headliners and you wouldn't want to see 5 headliners booked but Biffy were to not be thouhgt of as an option for one. Wolf Alice on the other hand could sub no bother and you'd think nothing of it. I'm not so sure Biffy would get headline though after the festival choice in Kendal this year.
    • Definitely. UKIP also used Merkel welcoming 1 million Afgans to Europe in 2015 during the brexit vote.   Politicians in other countries within the EU know the are going to lose voters to parties to the right of them over stuff like this and they've no control over it.
