An interview with the organiser Dan Tobbin regarding Napalm Death and Earache Records presence in general. Some interesting tidbits about how it all came about. One line in particular "one band is coming all the way from the US just to play this gig" is adding fuel to my Clutch dream.

 Clutch are incredible live, really hope they are the act bring referred to there.

I was thinking that the Dead Kennedys could be that band coming over to play Glastonbury bc of their heavy inclusion in the [OG version of] the playlist and no European dates. Now they've just announced O2 Academy Liverpool 23rd June so ink them in for a slot boyos.

Good spot! And a great booking for this. Awesome that a band like them could have so much interest.

Though even without J-Biaffles there's no way they'll be in the tube car.

I know it's not going to be a Jello DK gig, but still - fuck - that'd be amazing!

Yeah I did initially think "why the fuck would they care" but seems they do! Pretty cool. I see they've added Bristol on Sunday as well so guessing Glasto is the middle pin.

Thu: Ho99o9
Fri: Steve Ignorant (11pm)
Sat: Extreme Noise Terror, Wormrot (11pm), Dead Kennedys (maybe Thurs)
Sun: ?

Somewhere: Napalm Death second set?

Predicting [at least] off that playlist: Dinosaur Pile-up, HECK, Turbowolf, Dream Wife, Puppy

The strategy will probably be to put the big lads on when main stage headliners are on.

The interview posted earlier said there are going to be four bands a night on the stage, with 16 in total. The curator of the stage has tweeted that they are hoping to announce more acts this week.

From that article....

“All the music Earache has done over the years has been confrontational, we will not be putting on cheesy metal acts, we are picking bands that fit with the Glastonbury message, bands with something to say.”

this is going to be wicked

Hmmm

ZDLR and One Day as a Lion on that playlist. Think they're trynna tell us sumthink. 

The first 35 or so they had initially seemed to indicate a few bands that were TBC already so it was interesting to see the rest. They added a load more major metal bands after that though so wouldn't read into anything below a point.

[the_arsonist]

Real excited to see who's going to be added - sounded previously like it was only going to be on the Thursday so glad it's across the whole weekend.

God I hope it's Clutch though, that would be incredible

Thanks.  Looks like DK should be there then.  Shame we cant have a few more on the list though.  SOAD would have been great, not in an old tube carriage though!

Dead Kennedys would be awesome. They're one of those bands that I rarely listen to but always love it when I do.

They're debut album is a stone cold classic

 

[she bangs the drums]

Wow just when I thought this year's line up couldn't get any better, now rumours of the Dead Kennedys and an exciting late night venue for fans of punk/metal 

[Trout Mask Replica]

I know it won't happen but bring Godflesh to Glastonbury and I promise to retire and give up all future tickets to the more needy.

[TheSheriff]

Seen Dead Kennedys without Jello at Beautiful Days a couple of years back. Can't say I was really impressed, the new singer came across as really arrogant. Hopefully that was just an off day

[Horror85]

If only get half the stuff off that list. Insect Warefare is "The rounds on me!"

[Trout Mask Replica]

I'll be guy at Truth stage on Thursday wearing the Godflesh T-Shirt. If anyone here spots me come say hello.

I'm really wearing it for The Orb later, the ND clash is just unfortunate.
