FloorFiller Posted April 6, 2017 Report Share Posted April 6, 2017 Just now, thewayiam said: He's correct but we've worked this out, I'm going for an Other sub/3rd down still to come with the current two next to Gibb and that right side run of Katy, Chic and Lorde below each other making up those 6 slots. I'd be surprised if we got Other subs/third downs added considering how many big names are already on the poster - it's hard enough already trying to reasonably fit in all those acts.

Nah it's not as soon as you realise that Katy most likely isn't subbing it's fur easy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingbadger Posted April 6, 2017 Report Share Posted April 6, 2017 10 minutes ago, eFestivals said: they don't get any special info. Plus it was tweeted 10 minutes after the poster was released, so likely he just assumed they would be Pyramid as everyone else has, so it's not like it has come from any information 'drip fed' to NME over the past week as people are alleging.

At the moment doing my lineup I still didn't have an act to go below Alt-J and that was Katy and everyone in place. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dentalplan Posted April 6, 2017 Report Share Posted April 6, 2017 On Mark Gardener's tour dates it has Ride playing 23rd. I don't know if it's a default first day of the festival because most of the dates are confirmed and the only other one, Benicassim, is one they're obviously playing the first day. Feel confident that it's right and it confirms the thought that they're Friday's Park headliners, ergo clashing with Radiohead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're acting like and being treated like the publication that they are, but with nothing special beyond that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
defrio29 Posted April 6, 2017 Report Share Posted April 6, 2017 Why aren't we putting The xx on the Pyramid sub yet? http://www.nme.com/news/music/xx-share-short-film-night-day-brixton-shows-2033725 Quote Meanwhile, The xx will be returning to the UK to perform at Glastonbury Festival – performing before Radiohead on the Pyramid Stage on Friday June 23. Article was written by the same guy who published the Emily interview that confirmed Biffy as the Sunday sub slot today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

finn_with_1_n Posted April 6, 2017 Report Share Posted April 6, 2017 According to their website, London Grammar are playing on Sunday. Unsure which stage they'll be on, had them certain for Other but as it is Ed Sheeran day on the Pyramid, who knows? http://www.londongrammar.com/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DownboundTrain52 Posted April 6, 2017 Report Share Posted April 6, 2017 I thought she had Park on Sunday too but Cinematic Orchestra seemed to be another consensus. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FloorFiller Posted April 6, 2017 Report Share Posted April 6, 2017 I keep flittering between Laura Marling being just right for the Park or too big for it. If she's not there then something like third down Other seems right, although I think I've said that about twenty of our so far confirmed acts thus far so something's gotta give and somebody's gotta be elsewhere.

dentalplan Posted April 6, 2017 Report Share Posted April 6, 2017 That seems too high up. I'd say two or three slots lower down Other than that, or alternatively evening John Peel which I'd punt for. Reckon Park has to be Can Project or Cinematic Orchestra. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well she played fifth down the Pyramid in 2011 and I don't think she's gotten particularly smaller than that- fifth/sixth down Other seems pretty low, and she's certainly a bigger deal than any acts I can think of who've been 2nd/3rd top John Peel. I'll compromise at 4th down Other, but I'd be surprised to see her get lower than that, or at least I think she deserves no lower than that.

the wonderwhy Posted April 7, 2017 Author Report Share Posted April 7, 2017 She's an odd one to place. Definitely could've played bigger venues on the tour the other month as she sold them out pretty quick but she's clearly picky (in a good way) about the rooms she plays in.

grayfitz Posted April 10, 2017 Report Share Posted April 10, 2017 I just got an email from the FJM mailing list and it has him listed as being at Glastonbury on the Saturday. Not sure if this was already known, I couldn't see anything in the thread about it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dentalplan Posted April 10, 2017 Report Share Posted April 10, 2017 Grand. It wasn't known I don't believe. I would say I hope it doesn't clash with The National but that's never gonna happen really. Chinstroker nightmare. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good news that someone I really want to see is definitely not Friday. Hope he doesn't clash with angel. Missed him last time. If he's Pyramid he'll be at least 6th out of 7 down, 4th down Other maybe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
