Does anyone have any ideas on any surprises that could be possible down the order?. The rumours for the headliners are pretty run out and most seem to think Killers and the Cure are on or something else obvious that’s been mentioned. I’m feeling like this year could be the most predictable and boring yet!, although stormzy was a shock but not a good one imo. The other stage I’d imagine will have a top band on the Friday. Looking at the bands touring around this year nothing seems exciting that will play

This is the thread for you. Also check the one called 'Other Stage' - likely that top band you speak of is Tame Impala.

We are lucky that it's just a joy to be on the site regardless of pyramid headliners being to everyone's liking.

I reckon I probably average less than 1 pyramid headliner each year but getting nil from three for consecutive years of 2015 and 2016 probably helped to pull the average down -- now they were awfully dull headliners!

I've been every Glasto since 2014 and only seen 2 pyramid stage headliners, Kanye & Kasabian. 

At this point I've stopped caring about who the headliners will be because of the magnitude of acts they have across the festival, I just want the full May line up now ?!

you'll have to wait until at least April for that.

They were the most Brexit-y bands that sprung immediately to mind.

OCS at the Villa Leisure Centre in 1996 was my first gig.

What a venue! I only managed to see them for the first time a few years back at that Beyond the Tracks gig in Brum. Them and The Coral!

Get em both on the farm I say ?

I'd love some OCS on the farm.

Never seen the full band live but have watched Simon Bird on his own a couple of times. Always been a good gig.

    • f**king horrendous and seems they couldn’t run an egg and spoon race.  zero info and the crush waiting to get in to see Massive Attack was potentially disasterous. Zero info, no stewards at all and was told that the whole evening was cancelled, when we got to the exit. Because it rained. First time attendee and i’ve got onsay, i’m far from impressed. Scalping bastard taxis asking €37 plus for an €11 fare too. Wonderdul.
    • Rumours are it's called The Lost Tour. In the US in September. Ireland in November (so UK+Europe a good bet around November/early December). 
    • Hey guys, is there a group going for any solo y not goers this year?? I couldn’t miss out once I saw the acts but it’s just me and would be great to meet some others:))
    • After deciding to abandon the festival, here's a few of my thoughts (mostly negative tbf).    On the positive side - was it just me or were there a few more urinals than last year? Seemed to help the queues at the loos a bit from what i saw. Plus they had at least had some foresight and had a few more covered areas in the VIP areas.    Now on the negatives.  The weather was admittedly pretty crap but it wasn't apocalyptic. How the actual f**k are bits of the main stage falling off in those conditions?  Then the communication was awful, there's a load of people who left the site because they were told by security guards/other personnel that there would be no more acts on the main stage this evening.  You have an app Primavera, use it! Yes, there's a shitload going on I'm sure but communication with the festivalgoers should be one of the top priorities. You failed.    And I'm not usually somebody who buys into the whole "oh this is hugely unsafe and it's lucky people weren't hurt" narrative, but all the above led to movements of people that were genuinely unsafe.  Evacuating Mordor entirely (again... Why???) and then having a horde of people trying to get in because they thought they were going to Massive Attack was insane.  And given a lot of people basically abandoned ship around 10.30pm the crush at both the exit to the festival and the entrance to the Metro was pretty dangerous.   Conditions happen, most people will get that....but the contingencies have to be better. 
    • You'd think that something like bad weather was in the basics of festival planning. After the shitshow of Madrid, you'd think they'd learnt their lesson, apparently not...
