I'd say this statement is also very narrow minded. Drugs covers A LOT of stuff

Yeah, I do a lot of drugs in the circus fields.

Paracetamol, ibuprofen, loperamide, omeprazole... anything to try and get my body feeling somewhat normal before hitting the ethanol in the form of cocktails from those birdcage ladies.

That lineup is unrealistic because it's way too good. 

I do think we'll have a good year next year as we rinsed through most of the shiters the past couple of years without much reason for them to return. Kinda like 2014's lineup (imo). But yeah seeing as I get a lot of music suggestions off here and trying to fill out an entire lineup it will be more than a bit biased.

Bonobo shoved in between Justice and Crystal Castles AND clashing with Gold Panda? That's just mean.

Yeah I wasn't thinking. That clash would be too rough on fans of endangered animals.

[BlackHole2006]

Got really, really bored at work today so started doing my own stage predictions. It's headliners only but instead of just the usual suspects I've decided to go one step further and predict all of Silver Hayes, Acoustic, Avalon and The Glade. Feel free to laugh at how terrible this probably is:

Pyramid:  Radiohead, Foo Fighters, Ed Sheeran
Other:      Major Lazer, Chase & Status, The Prodigy
West Holts:  Metronomy, The Isley Brothers, The Jacksons
The Park:  Flume, Sufjan Stevens, Dinosaur Jr
John Peel: Justice, The Flaming Lips, Kraftwerk
Acoustic:  Christie Moore, Martha Reeves & The Vandellas, Mavis Staples
Avalon:  The Cinematic Orchestra, New Model Army, Afro Celt Sound System
The Glade:  Sasha & Jon Digweed, Omar Souleyman, Alabama 3
Sonic:   Big Narstie, Craig David's TS5, Soulwax
WOW!:   The Black Madonna, Ben UFO, MCDE B2B Jeremy Underground
Gully:     Black Coffee, Lettuce, Giles Petersen
The Blues:  Jamie Jones, Optimo B2B Move D, Dreadzone Soundsystem
Pussy Parlure:  Fatima Yamaha, Kerri Chandler, Sultans of Disco

 

[CaledonianGonzo]

Good to see some love for The Isley Brothers.  The plethora of jams that Isley, Isley and the lads could conjure up would brook no debate.

Yes please! Clash central on the Sunday night though, Jesus.

Also I can't imagine alt-J headlining the other stage, it doesn't sit right with me for some reason. Can't think where else they'd go though, maybe Sunday sub instead of Elbow?

[TiZuff]

as long as i can see radiohead, bon iver, frank ocean, ed Sheeran and Run The jewels ill be happy....

[conroy17]

If Solange were to play do you reckon she'd play WH? Would be brilliant on there but feel like she'd wanna try and blag a Pyramid slot.

Played the Park last time out, tho she's got bigger since 

 

[Amy Lawn]

Park was packed out for Solange, she needs moving up, I reckon mid Other/high JP. 2013 was before she kung-fued Jay-Z.

She probably got that big crowday with people hoping Beyonce would turn up, it's not unknown to happen. 

[CaledonianGonzo]

Hmmm...I don't recall it being especially busy, and while there may have been some people there thinking that Queen Bey would show up I'd be surprised it if it was more than a handful.

I like. Only thing I'd suggest changing is swapping Clean Bandit and Christine & the Queens around.

Due to American dates, I believe Weezer and RTJ are pretty unlikely. I hope they do better than this personally by a big margin. Top Other Friday, top Pyramid Sat and last Pyramid Sunday with a lot of free space.

Well it won't be FF and both them and Ed will share a young crowd, that's not to say older folk won't go to The Prodigy but Friday makes it almost complete opposites.
