Who's Touring Around Glastonbury 2017?

[CaledonianGonzo]

Was heartbroken when I saw B-Wizzle last year and he barely even mimed surfing on a surfboard.

I saw Brian Wilson in Bristol last year.  Most depressing concert I've ever been to.

How disappointing. Always the ones you most look forward to eh

Just seen an email from See saying Ashcroft is playing Brixton on July 1st.

White scarves at the ready...

Does anyone think Brian Wilson is likely for Glastonbury at all? He's been announced for Camp Bestival and Bilbao BBK which shows he's touring through the summer and he's in Europe in early July, he isn't a UK festival exclusive at Camp Bestival too. Can see him playing mid afternoon on Saturday. I know he's played before, but tbh so did Madness back in 2010 & I can see him taking the same slot they did last year. He'd be such a big pull for the festival too.

I'd love to see him there. One issue is that he's still doing the Pet Sounds set, which is rather long (nearly 40 songs). Maybe if he were to play (although I'm not hopeful), he could headline WH and do his full show. Would be a great alternative to Ed.

Jungle DJ Set tells me Jungles new album isn't going to be ready in time and they won't be at Glastonbury 

Hopefully I'm wrong 

[Mardy]

Ooof, that Kendal Calling lineup is the stuff of nightmares. Wild horses wouldn't get me there

Wow, was only chatting earlier about maybe getting a day ticket for kendal seeing as its now local to us. Looks like the only ticket I'll be looking for is one out of here. 

[SwedgeAntilles]

Doesn't look great does it? That being said would happily take the Manics, Franz Ferdinand, The Coral, Honeyblood and White to beef up the undercard on the farm.

I think this is okay actually, 7/8 acts I'd watch.

Kendal Shit Cake

[Gnomicide]

Was just thinking that I like the look of Kendal Calling

I need to find a new message board to post on.

[SwedgeAntilles]

Sticking the 'Phonicals up front row centre doesn't do it any favours. 

[CaledonianGonzo]

I wandered lonely as a cloud.

That floats on high o'er vales and hills.

When all at once I saw a crowd,

A host, of indie landfills.

For a mid sized festival I think Kendall has done ok myself. Considering the shit that's normally at IOW and V!

Manics and Frank Turner I'd be happy with at Glastonbury. Other than seasick Steve and possibly Nothing but thieves the rest of that lineup is poor. 

Anything with stereophonics headlining I'd keep well away from.

Yeah there's some fun stuff on there. Brian Wilson would go down a storm late afternoon on the Pyramid, past it or not. Frankie T also.

Could do what Patti Smith did in 2015 and not do an album set in the middle of touring her famous album in full, and play mid-afternoon on Pyramid.

Jake Bugg's popping up a lot. Hope this doesn't mean we're to be treated to another album.

EDIT: Apparently he put one out last summer so ignore me.
