Gnomicide Posted August 24, 2016 Report Share Posted August 24, 2016 The annual thread to see who is out and about and available to play the festival. This is the first 2017 festival line up I've seen, plenty on here I'd love to see at Glastonbury. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
5co77ie Posted August 24, 2016 Report Share Posted August 24, 2016 If you look at thewir line-ups from previous there's not many that end up at Glastonbury - shame as I've always thought it would be great to have them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
5co77ie Posted August 24, 2016 Report Share Posted August 24, 2016 Forinstance last year's first announcement was The National, Ali Campbell (with Astro and Mickey Virtue), Joe Bonamassa, City and Colour, Tedeschi Trucks Band, The Cat Empire, Willie Nelson's son Lukas Nelson & Promise of the Real, The Word, Rhiannon Giddens, Janiva Magness, St Paul and The Broken Bones, Allen Stone, The Selecter, Shakey Graves, and Songhoy Blues.

That's a shame, some quality acts on the bill. Booker T presents The Stax Record Review sounds interesting, would be great to see St Paul back and there's at least another 10 acts I'd love to see. First time I've seen Joan Osbourne's name mentioned in ages. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zoo Music Girl Posted August 24, 2016 Report Share Posted August 24, 2016 Buddy Guy would be an awesome addition. And obviously Patti, but I'd say too soon for her. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Nal Posted August 24, 2016 Report Share Posted August 24, 2016 (edited) Buddy Guy and Snarky Puppy please! Edited August 24, 2016 by The Nal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Nal Posted August 24, 2016 Report Share Posted August 24, 2016 Saw him in Dublin on the same tour (I presume) and he didn't do Soul Limbo so theres unfinished business there motherfuckers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FuzzyDunlop Posted August 24, 2016 Report Share Posted August 24, 2016 Guns n Roses are touring japan, new zealand and Australia in February, I'd expect a European tour. Glasto wont happen, due to cash. Rumours will start though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwedgeAntilles Posted August 24, 2016 Report Share Posted August 24, 2016 Yaaas! Love this thread. Although my excitement was tempered somewhat when I realised it was 'Beth Hart' not 'Bret Hart' in the original post. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kalifire Posted August 25, 2016 Report Share Posted August 25, 2016 From what I've observed with Australian festivals, artists tend to do the summer in Europe, then head down under after that. Rare you'd find them doing it the other way around. I'm excited to see this thread, though. It's an eFest staple. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I 100% expect them at GF2017 Yes! They've been away for far too long. They were the last act I saw in 2014, and despite being so tired I could barely stand, they were one of the highlights, even though I'd already seen them a few weeks before at a festival in Nottingham. Now for that second album... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
