Empty it of people.

Festival line-ups in general really are rotten this year.

Sure, but you can treat it as a chance to get to a festival that you've heard good things about but the lineup never quite justifies it.

I'm off to WOMAD on that basis.

If I didn't have tickets for the G I probably would.

Primavera is stacked though.

[Badlands]

Britpop nostalgia really is the pits. There’s a few on that lineup that I’d be quite happy to see. But when you clump a load of them together with a red, white and blue background, it’s a right turn off. There’s never been a more overrated scene.

I would be up for some Soul II Soul and Fun Lovin Criminals

You just need to nurture your inner Wellend.

The big P is giving me hope for the big G, if one can pull out a peach in a year of turkeys then so can the other. Even if we do end up with some indie dross on the Pyramid Saturday night, there's still all to play for across the rest of the stages.

The Manics are a must surely, they seem to be playing every festival

This is the type of wishful thinking I love to see. Wanna declare my love for Nicky Wire while If You Tolerate This is belted across the Other Stage

No Low either as they're similarly exclusive to EoTR. Bum.

fuck sake

[FuzzyDunlop]

The Darkness are supporting Ed Sheeran in what must be the oddest support act since Surgeon was on before Lady Gaga.

The Darkness would be perfect Other stage openers

Well fingers crossed you will be able to do just that! They always seem to go down a storm wherever they play, there would be a lot of love for the manics

[Hugh Jass]

Be five years since the Manics last played... Christ, I suddenly feel old.

I'd convinced myself they'd be a John Peel or Other headliner, but they're doing 3 mainland europe festivals over 4 days glastonbury weekend.

[thewayiam]

Given Ezra is playing 4 festivals is it as well as the likely Glasto appearance. I'm going for atm Catfish to sub on Sunday provided Noel does sub Saturday and Ezra to be 3rd.

Catfish aren’t gonna sub the Pyramid. They’re prime Other fodder and that’s where they’ll stay I imagine.

By that logic you're saying they are only ever going to play on the Other stage?
