Avalon announce

[Brave Sir Robin]

Added the lineup to the Glastonbury 2017 playlist, about halfway down, if you want a listen. Almost as much brass and pop as there is folk this year!

Fans of the Hot 8 Brass Band (and the like) might want to check out the Hackney Colliery Band, who do originals but also Toto's Africa, No Diggity, Heart Shaped Box, and a Prodigy medley...

Yeah I enjoyed it. Can't say I've gone back to it much (at all) after the initial few listens but there were a few great songs on there (On What You're On is a banger). What with there already being a billion things for me to see on the lineup I fear I'll end up missing them, but fingers crossed they're playing during a rare gap in the acts for me.

Yeah as someone said already they will probably be on pretty high up, so I imagine they're going to clash with someone I already want to see. Ah well, better to be having clashes than no acts I want to see!

Busted, Kiefer Sutherland, and the Hackney Colliery Band. Might have to finally make it to the Avalon this year!

Ha, looks like loads of fun. Spent a lot of time in the Avalon Field last year, the bar mainly, and had a great time

There is a mine in Hackney?!  Who knew?

[TomViolence]

Very happy about Jesca Hoop - one of my albums of the year so far and she's fun live.

Wouldn't mind seeing Lucy Rose either.

Saw Hot 8 Brass Band last week and even then they were unsure if they were playing Glastonbury when I spoke to them after the gig.

They could easily put them mid afternoon which they've done for most of their WTF acts, Wurzels, Lulu, Wombles, Bruce Forsythe. I think the field had to be closed for each of them.

Bruce wasn't closed off but it was stupid to put him in there that early. 

Interested for who the Croissant Neuf TBA will be, I'm going for Feeder though.

Busted! Yassss! Not gonna lie - they'll take priority over a lot of other stuff (unless they're headlining, in which case fuck 'em).

Priority is a bit far.

[themuel]

If Kiefer doesn't start his set in pitch black with 'the following takes place between... events occur in real time.' Then he's doing it wrong. 

[guinness_guzzler]

Listening and loving Darlingside, anyone seen them live??

[6t6o6m]

I will certainly be there for Lucy Rose*

 

*if successful in the resale.

Always up for seeing Skinny Lister, what a great live band. Will Varley is also really good to echo what others have said already

This is why I love Glastonbury so much, even on a smaller stage we have so many diverse acts

It's a great poster, probably the 1st time I'm going to try and watch something there!!

Lissie

Steve Harley & Cockney Rebel !!

Can't believe Kiefer is playing, no idea what he sings but will try to be there with my #Goddamit poster (along with everyone else lol)

[Funkyfairy!]

I actually really like Scouting for Girls - cheesy defo, but always great for a singalong. mmm even saw them at Butlins last year when the Teenage Ninja turtle standing next to me was word perfect --- Don't shoot me :-) .

Nice to see this on the linup but don't know much other than Make Me Smile and Here Comes the Sun. Any recommendations on where to elaborate?

[Havors]

Chuffed at this line up!! Its better than the main poster! 

Skinny Lister, Hackney Colliery Band, Sophie Eliis-Bexter (for a perve...shes hot), The Mavericks! haha! The Eskies

I will end up in Avalon quite a bit I reckon

[Nobody Interesting]

How on earth am I supposed to split myself into at least 8 parts!!

I need to be at Avalon, The Park, WH and so many more places all at the same time.

But then, clashes make me happy cos it means I am at GF.

[FolkMeRight]

What about the Avalon Cafe lineup??? Looking at last year's poster they had both stages on there!
