They've probably had more than that in the field at times though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If anyone wanted evidence that the saying 'It was better in my day' has some validity, then there you have it. I don't think I could have a better running 4 this year myself.

Shocked at how many I knew without realising who they were by. These sound right up my st, will have a proper listen tomorrow. Thanks for posting.

What I'm kind of hoping for now is Ashcroft to be the opening Friday Other act or subbing to Major Lazer with Lorde under BBK or Alt-J.....which is possible as being opposite Biffy/FF with their set is something that would happen and should be more likely.

I think it's made to suggest Chic that low down as well. Only major clash in RTJ and RB but I'd watch most of RTJ and see if it's for me and head over to RB as they'll play a couple of main one's at the end.

No confirmed but considering Dave made a comment on playing for three hours and them loving to do long sets anyway it seems a good bet that they'll get about that long.

theDandy Posted April 7, 2017 Report Share Posted April 7, 2017 Why are we edging towards Justice Sunday West Holts? I was still clinging to the theory of Jamiroquai for the slot and he's not been announced yet due to ticket sales for they're/his own tour not being sold out yet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CaledonianGonzo Posted April 7, 2017 Report Share Posted April 7, 2017 Thats almost certainly what I'll do, at least if he comes to Scotland -plus its not like Ive.not seen him before. And Perry is very much a one-time offer that's unlikely to be repeated. But a sunny Saturday afternoon at WH skanking to Monkey Man is such stuff as dreams are made on.

Had kind of come to terms with the fact I'd possibly end up missing them, but the more I think about it (and especially how sweet that WH run is altogether)... damn I'm pissed.

VCK Posted April 7, 2017 Report Share Posted April 7, 2017 Usually Glastonbury likes their subs to complement their headliners, so Biffy before Ed Sheeran, presumably in between him and Katy Perry, is an odd top two, when Biffy into Foos would have made a lot more sense. Radiohead/The XX Foo Fighters/Biffy Clyro Ed Sheeran/Katy Perry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would say a lot of it is do to with crowd management keep them moving, Adele / Tame Impala last year? on the Other stage this year you'll see someone like Courteeners subbing BBK Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Radiohead/The XX Foo Fighters/Biffy Clyro Ed Sheeran/Katy Perry Although I agree, Biffy in to Foos seemed too similar - mini Foos in to actual Foos - so whilst The National before Foos isn't ideal, I like that they're shaking it up a bit. Interested to hear how Biffy go down. I'm sure they'll do a hell of a better job of it than previous weirdly placed subs, but then I was also deep in Beck's crowd last year and saw how utterly uninterested people waiting for the following headliner can be. An odd crowd for them for sure, and a big fear I have about The National's crowd also (The xx are the only ones who've got a pretty sweet deal).

CaledonianGonzo Posted April 7, 2017 Report Share Posted April 7, 2017 Positioning if Chic is an interesting variable. Are they as big as the acts that have followed the Legend Slot in previous years - Ellie Goulding, Alt-J, Ed Sheeran? I wouldn't have said so. So it's last chance saloon time - Chic on before Right Bazza and K-Pez on afterwards keeps the dream alive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd say they're possibly not as big as those acts, but they're definitely a bigger deal (especially at Glastonbury) than the acts that have preceded the legend slot. Really they'd be most at home in the fourth down slot imo. But I'll take this theory if it removes some of that Saturday Pyramid/WH clash that we seem to have going.
