Imagine they'd be 3 or 4 down on Other if they play.

I've always thought them about the same size as Justice. That being said, Justice as Other headliner seems too high imo. Ignore me then

I think it was about 50 or 55 minutes. 

Nearer 50 I think - definitely under an hour.

Gogol Bordello have announced a few Summer dates. Leftfield headliner?

Steph would be more than happy with this

Wait... the manics are suddenly rumoured.   I'm all over this. Fucking epic day. I hope they are announced.

Pretty sure it's only because they're playing as part of a series of Bristol gigs the week of the festival. James Bay did the same last year and didn't show up. Can't see the Manics playing at all unless they've agreed to be Friday openers, which I don't think they will have done.

Can anyone rule out the wombats or the hunna? Hope not

I was just thinking other opener would be perfect for them. Do they have new music?

+ The Wombats are playing gigs in the UK the week after Glastonbury but seem to be touring their debut album in full so I'm not sure if that makes an appearance at the farm less likely..?

Well that's shit in my cereal .

I still have hope. Hope is a good thing.

Nothing out yet but I read an interview earlier where he was talking about a 'rockier' new album. I'd imagine they'd have atleast a single out before the summer 

[lime green]

Has any one mentioned cage the elephant are now in the UK the week after Glastonbury. https://mobile.twitter.com/CageTheElephant/status/846364223508791297?ref_src=twsrc^google|twcamp^serp|twgr^tweet seems a long way for just 2 shows

Depeche Mode still have 2 days available over the Glasto weekend. I know they said not this year, but they also said they'd like to do it.

[Gucci Piggy]

Depeche Mode have said they aren't playing, aren't doing 2 nights on the bounce all tour and would headline the Pyramid if they played.

[jparx]

The 6 music performance was billed as one of 2 uk shows as well.

Mate as much as I would love it, I just can't see them being up against Radiohead or Foo Fighters as it just does not make sense. Up against Ed Sheeran then fair enough but not against the other 2.

They have had more hits than both of them so I would be gobsmacked if they agreed to play second fiddle to either of them.

Have just watched their set from last night at the 6 music festival and they were superb. Now I prefer them on record compared to live as I do not like the live drummer. Yet Dave Gahan is absolutely superb. There are not many true rock and roll front men left.

Am a little worried they don't seem to be playing any songs pre Violator although I expect that to change come the tour proper.

Sorry, I knew that. It was my point  I probably wasn't clear with that.

[Gucci Piggy]

Do Depeche Mode really have more hits than Foo Fighters? I prefer them but I would never have said that. I think when I started listening to them the only songs I recognised were Just Can't Get Enough, Personal Jesus, Enjoy the Silence and People are People.

I was only born in 1995 though so I obviously missed Depeche Mode's commercial peak. Did they have a lot of hits?
