Jesus...I must have been way more spandangled than I thought at previous Glastos, as I've spent a lot of time at the Glade and thought it was just one stage  The maps not giving me any other clues either. I can see one of thems being moved from SE, bit where was Space Port?

This is all kinds of epic though! However, Im feeling the absence of Talaboman though. Its not happening, is it?

I know. Mental. It's a shame that line up is there. Probably the shittest venue. And too small for half of those acts. 

Yeh...given that I'd never even noticed it existed before, I seriously hope some of those guys are playing multiple sets. Esp Stanton Warriors!

Oh cool! But...urm... I dont remember seeing those big green people before either. I think I might have to go and have a good long word with myself....

i THINK it's just over the path towards Holts? The Lounge and the Spaceport are past the Glade "tent" and a little bit across.

you can say that again! I urge anyone who likes live electronic music to go watch them.

Absolutely. Hopefully the scenes will be similar to their Pitchfork fest performance:

There certainly wasn't much green round there last year!  The people are there every year, but I don't remember them being green at all in 2016.

Is that 2015?  I don't remember it looking that nice in 2014 either.

[paulshane]

wow, the glade area is always good, but this is taking it to the next level!

[Junglist1981]

Surely they must be making the Spaceport bigger, that line up is far too good and too $$$ for a venue that size.

Hopefully they'll make the bar a little better too, had maybe the worst mojito of my life in there last year.

What sort of stuff does Jah play? Anything like early PiL or totally different?

He's totally different to PiL, but he has one fantastic band! Lots of dub, a bit jazzy, a bit world-music-y, he's on my MUST SEE's for certain, amazing show.

Mostly totally different I think but he throws in the odd PiL tune.

The early 90s stuff is great.

Yeah unmissable really. 

Think @Mardy will be happy?

Awesome line up. Digging The Beat, aint seen them live yet so thatll be another to cross of the list (evil clashes permitting). 

Few bands on here and Shangrila so hoping were getting a few bands playi g different stages as that help with the clashes which at this stage is looking like it could be pretty torrid already

On that Glade sound system with that there bass they have there, this is going to be too good for words... Should even bring a smile to Mardy's face! 

[Junglist1981]

Delighted that Sasha & Digweed don't clash with Radiohead  

I'm free of any major clashes so far, touch wood....

[The Clearest Blue]

I'm chuffed the correspondents are going to be back again this year, I know they are regulars now but I love them no less, and clashes permitting this year's set will be my sixth time seeing them. I wish I knew more of that line up as judging by all our your reactions it's a killer. Anyone similar to the Correspondents that I should check out?

[The Nal]

This looks like heaps of fun too. From about 7.15

Gonna have to visit spaceport, a relative of my wife is playing there

[Nduja]

Last year was the first time I had spent any proper time at the Glade. Great spot. Very very pleased with LBHQ being moved over to midtown, it's increased prominence and accessibility means it has to get a lot bigger though. Every single scouser is gonna be there for some of the big names and there are a lot at Glasto

Agreed. Its in a bit of a shit spot as well right next to the main path that leads to the old railway track.

Straight on my list as well. Great stuff.

[LST1996]

anyone who's into bassline/garage/grime needs to get to the off me nut record vs tumble audio at the spaceport...holy goof as well, such a sick varied line up though this year at the glade area! buzzing 

[Graf21]

My first year at Glasto and I think I've come at the right time! These announcements just keep getting better. Can't wait to finally see paranoid London 

[BlackHole2006]

Kolsch is also an absolute must see for me: 

 

[Spindles]

Definitely their strongest offering in years.  2015 was a great year for them (last year not so much) and it looks like they have a crack at topping that this time round, particularly if the unannounced acts are as eclectic and interesting as they usually tend to be.

Looking forward to this.  1983 is on my regular rotation of albums but need to explore a bit further!
