I have a feeling this lineup on tuesday is going to have day splits, stage splits, times and all. I think the only thing is might keep hidden is the slot before Adele.

aye they've left it late enough now that the times should probably be announced as well. christ, so many things i'm so anxious to see on this lineup - my eyes are gonna be darting all over the place. LCD on Sunday!? who's before Adele!? how long's their set length!? how long do Sigur Ros get!? who else big has been added!? where's Beck!?

I have break at 9:30/45am so defo going to need a 'toilet stop' by 11 to check it all out. Or I prolong it out somehow for a later break but that would be hard for that long.

You can spot scientologists by the fact that they only have 3 fingers on each hand. Like Xenu did.

Bit late with this but while people are ripping their hair out working out who's going to sub I'm just happy Khan and BBQ have been announced! They'll be a right laugh

10:30 Tuesday is good for me. I'm in an exam 9:30-12 and then have an exam the following day, so straight home after that, read through the lineup and get back to work all day rather than the usual waiting impatiently for the clashfinder to be done.

Saying that, I'll be on here discussing it all day rather than doing the work part.

Wednesday morning would have been awful as I'll be straight to the pub from my exam and with friends all day until the night. Was trying to plan how to slip off for 10 mins to give it a quick read through.

I'd bin my mates off if it was Wednesday. You could meet them later

True but that straight-to-the-pub-from-final-exam-of-the-year visit will be super nice and I can see the Glasto lineup whenever.

Anyway, Tuesday it is.

Ooh I have missed the bit on a Tuesday announcement. I must devote more time to reading efests in the future and not go outside and do other stuff!

Who'd want to be out with a beer in the sunshine when we can all stay inside translating obscure German festival forums to decide whether Young Fathers are playing the Park Stage? 

[bekimo]

I was outside. Playing with my puppy in her paddling pool. But I did this wearing jeans, rookie error! So I had to come in to dry off. It's much safer indoors away from all of those shenanigans!

the thought of actually going to the festival and being surrounded by and minging with people rather than debating whether Ellie Goulding is big enough or deserving of subbing the Pyramid with them over a forum is giving me anxiety

People are minging after a few days at a festival!

You're a minger, I'm a minger too....

[bekimo]

We're all mingers!?

 

(that just auto corrected to miners!!) 

[morph100]

I hope it's today, just because I'm impatient and can't wait another 27 hours.

That explains everything. Except Philipa. She must have slipped through the net undetected.

Me too. 

I'm one of those people who always tell others that it's not all about the lineup, but for my personal taste the lineup so far isn't brilliant. Don't get me wrong, I'm excited about being at the festival and will definitely have an amazing time, but it would be nice to have a couple of acts to get really worked up about.

If I get both Radiohead and Anderson Paak I'll be delighted!

[Spindles]

That's the thing about Glastonbury though, it's always been the case that the lineup is often broad and offering something for everyone, but some years it might be a bit thin for some tastes.  When I was younger the lineup for Reading was always more tempting but the atmosphere of Glastonbury more than made up for it.  These days I'm happy to have 2 or 3 acts per day I'd really like to see and just bimble around for interesting things outside of that, which isn't something that a 'stage in an arena field' sort of festival really is able to offer to the same extent and I find myself mostly parked in front of stages for hours at a time at such.

[Junglist1981]

Oh yeah no doubt, I always wonder about seeing random stuff.  But normally that would be anchored around 1 or 2 key acts each day that I absolutely cannot miss.  Those are the ones I'm struggling for this year.

A good game to play when you're stuck for something to watch is pick the best named act on right now and go watch that. That's how we discovered Hobo Jones & The Junkyard Dogs  

[sisco]

This time tommorow people we will all be moaning about the horrendous clashes!!! Can't wait to be pissed off.
