Avalanches are at Coachella, no?  Which adds some credence to their original confirmation on Twitter.

Sorry, yeah. No European dates whatsoever yet, though.

Okay maybe they will still be there

[CaledonianGonzo]

Would watch 3 out of 3.  I like that stat.

Pity that 2 of the 3 headliners are still a mystery.

[eFestivals]

I have good reason to believe there's more than one reggae act playing WH this year. 

I just wish I knew who any others might be ... tho i do have my suspicions, as you know.

Hold on, I'm confused. What are we saying for subs and headliners now? Someone lay it out for me in non-cryptic language as best they can please

you need to ask a better question where I can understand what exactly you're asking.

Jacksons as a header with Toots, Solange and The Avalanches as subs

Jacksons headlining, Solange subbing.

Also Avalanches and Toots that day, tho i'm not entirely sure of running orders and whether there's other acts around them

Avalanches into Solange would suit me right down to the ground

Apologies, please excuse my informalities.

Please could you list each headliner and sub headliner that is now considered the most likely for the West Holts stage at Glastonbury Festival of Contemporary Performing Arts 2017?

Wait, what? All four of them on the same day? I assumed Solange, Avalanches and Toots would all be subs.

I think that's what it is, with Toots before them, tho i can't be sure.

[dentalplan]

Gosh that's strong.

Will also be nearly a full house on a single day of West Holts on the listings page. Huzzah!

All 4 on the same day? That's big if true.

[CaledonianGonzo]

If all 4 are on the same day then I pronounce it JAM PACKED

[simian_mobile_mushrooms]

So...

Fri:
Avalanches >> Jamiroquai

Sat:
Solange >> Jacksons

Sun:
Toots >> Damian Marley

I'm not sure if I've read all of the posts right, but, is that close!?

Edit: JK is a big guess

I can only give you guesses for other headliners at the mo.

Because I now know there's more reggae than just Toots my favourite choice for another headliner is Damian Marley, tho i'm not going to get too carried away on that one because there's more reggae in the world than just him. It might be him, and I hope it's him, but I'm far from convinced.

If he's a 2nd, i'd guess the third will be an electronic act of some sort so take your pick from the various suggestions in this thread.

[mjsell]

Well West Holts appear to have won it all this year.

No apparently the Saturday is Toots > The Avalanches > Solange > The Jacksons.

What about the other days? Depending on other headliners, I could be there all day

Don't think we have anything of any note but Neil suspects Damian Marley may be a headliner due to hearing there's more than one reggae act playing and the fact he's around and not an exclusive elsewhere (I think).

[CaledonianGonzo]

Kraftwerk have been mentioned for months now, though who knows if there's anything in it.  See also Bjork.
