[Hutchmaster]

I count 24 acts off that poster that I'd love to see.

Will swap my right bollock for a ticket, any interest?

CALLING @Andeeroo!

[Gnomicide]

Anyways.... Yep, happy so far. Looks like I could have a few bands to see later than 8pm this year. Headliners, even.

Moderat, mate.

I'll probably be at Moderat, but let's not get carried away with their size.

[Krazypinkminx]

I am seriously happy

[Tommy101]

For me there are 33 that I'd love to see and 22 that I'd like to go along to, with plenty of new acts to discover. I'm like a spoil kid at Christmas, not sure what toy to play with.

[Chewie]

So then whens the next announcement!

 

Where's our map?!!!

Glad there's other people who like Moderat here. Hopefully they get paired with an older electronic act when more are announced.

Fans of Gaga will be miffed at seeing Perry no doubt.

A little but still happy.

GAGA's the Friday opener. Got to be.

Let's hope but doubt it.

Biffy Clyro & Katy Perry could easily headline any festival, they are 2 big coupes to have not headlining!

 

3 disappointments for me: Gaga, Liam Gallagher & Dua Lipa

 

but very very happy with that lineup

 

so all those speaking to me yesterday NAH I AINT GETTING A REFUND NEXT WEEK

Dua Lipa can fit still easy.

Strong as hell overall lineup but missing that huge 'wow' act for me personally (although Biffy and Katy Perry subbing is pretty huge).

Gaga would have been the wow but also was Perry. Now I can see me missing Download on the Saturday as I can miss the others I'd have seen.

1 hour ago, sisco said:

Just realised no Ashcroft or the Gallaghers! Surprised at that.

Look how low The Kaiser Chiefs are too

Still loads to come man.

I wanna talk placings! 

The xx - Friday other 

the national - Radiohead sub?

biffy - Foo's sub?

katy perry - ed sub

royal blood - 3rd down on pyramid?

So Saturday could look like:

foo's 

biffy

royal blood

thats anazing for me 

 

 

Royal Blood can't play Saturday, a Friday Other sub by the looks of it.

Priymid headliners

Radiohead,  ???

Foo Fighters, Royal Blood

Ed Sheeran, Kath Perry 

 

Other stage Headliners

The XX

The National

Biffy Clyro

 

 

I doubt Biffy agreed to play Other.

1 hour ago, FloorFiller said:

Radiohead, The xx
Foo Fighters, Biffy Clyro
Ed Sheeran, Katy Perry

Major Lazer
Alt-J
Fuck knows.

I think it's possible that FF have requested Biffy. Katy is a shock and I'll be there but don't think Gaga is ruled out. Gibb, ?, Perry and Ed is huge.

Nice to see Reading kept their exclusives.

The National subbing Radiohead and The xx opposite Ed, you know it

I'd be added bit surprised if The National subbed but The XX opposite Ed I expect.

1 hour ago, StePotts said:

I have just booked Ibiza especially to go see them as they weren't playing in the UK on their tour haha! Oh well, nothing like seeing them twice in a month!

I wouldn't have gone for then but I am seeing Arming playing HI in September.

Sasha & Digweed are in the Glade (confirmed via Twitter)

So hyped about The National!!!

ATCQ my only real disappointment.

To know a day would be nice.

Acts can still be added high, we've had years where the 2nd big drop included Other subs.

1 hour ago, FloorFiller said:

Almost zero. There'd be no reason to hold back such a big act.

Tame Impala came out of the blue, I think Gaga has a chance of being there, there isn't anything to say we have all 3 subs and Neil hasn't removed the SR tag

1 hour ago, adequate8 said:

awesome announcement, im hoping:

 

Radiohead, XX, National, Chic
Foos, Biffy, Royal Blood
Ed, Katy Perry, Barry Gibb, Stormzy, Lorde

Major Lazer
Alt J
BBK
 

That Friday is shocking!

[Wellyboot]

I AM SOOOOOOOOOOO HAPPY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

He's playing the slot for acts that embrace the novelty side because they know they're past it, though, not hogging a space headlining the Other like The Prodge would insist on. 

Jacksons? Chic?

[uscore]

One good thing about this thread is you can see how varied everyone's tastes are.  You have to love and respect everyone liking different stuff, even tho some of you like some right shit.

Jacksons? Chic?

Again, two acts who embrace their kitsch appeal rather than try and insist they still hold any relevance in this day and age. Jacksons have some of the best known songs of all time and Chic have been booked because their last appearance went down as one of the all-time great Glastonbury moments. Prodigy have neither of those factors in their favour.

[FuzzyDunlop]

Hoping for Sasha and Digweed to be Saturday night glade headliner. I'll be all over that

[Diva Sam]

[SteveTLizard]

So much to be happy about there, going to be be clash central though by the looks of it.

Happy that I spent most of my waking day yesterday reading this thread instead of working, only for Chris-f'ing-Moyles to tell me about it this morning.

Me too, my fear is they'll be on Thurs night, which is usually a bit of a roadblock anyway, but with both Sasha & Diggers it would be on another level again I suspect.

Very excited about this, last time I saw them DJ together was at Homelands, obv their finest moment being Renaissance Mix Collection 1

[loveansley]

I know it's sooooo much more than the line up....for me this isn't the best. Saying that some of my best Glasto moments have been turning up at the sets I never anticipated going to. I've also been living under a rock when it comes to current music so time to get on Spotify and maybe this will turn into one of my favourite line ups! Glad for the people who are stoked and yes 2014 was one of the best years!!

[brighton1983]

Do the 2nd release of bands ever involve so called bigger names ? Or bands that many of us may not have heard of.
