That it's a funky little shack.

And Kris Kristofferson, who’s over for Black Deer the weekend before Glastonbury. If he hadn’t played last time, i’d have said he was nailed on for this year

would have to be the Friday I'd think, unless they do an early slot at Glasto and do 2 shows in one day (unlikely)

Id love this but don't see it but fingers crossed

Just saw Middle Kids are playing London on Tue 25th June. They'd be a nice addition for me.

 

Hadn't heard of them before you posted this video, but loving that song. The drummer has so much energy, singer has a cracking voice & the guitars sound great too

[FakeEmpire]

Saw Middle Kids in Bristol last year and can confirm that they are very good live.   Would be a nice addition.

[willd255]

Middle Kids were great at village underground - would be good to see them at glasto

Anyone hold any hope for Sundara Karma?  Would be a travesty to not hear that new album at Glastonbury this year.

Would be surprised if they weren't mid on JP (after being on early on the Sunday two years ago!).

[mario man]

Flat Worms have a run of gigs in the UK over Glasto weekend, thurs-sat finishing in Birmingham. Gotta be a good chance of them showing up on the Sunday.

and if they’re here, there’s still a slim chance for Oh Sees...

I asked them this at a signing last month.    They said they didn't know yet.   I said "that means yes then" and Oscar said "honestly, we really don't know yet" and one of the others then said "if not this year then definitely next year".

[Avalon_Fields]

The Reverend Peyton's Big Damn Band are touring the UK & Europe in June/July, would be a welcome return to Glastonbury, their schedule would allow them to be there. Saw them a few years back in the Croissant Neuf, they were well entertaining

Seems to have been on most people’s predictions every year for the past few, but maybe him in the third/fourth down Pyramid oldie slot is finally gonna happen. 

[Madyaker]

Van Morrison would be legends slot at the very least if not headliner no? Could someone of that stature really be third down? Van Morrison being further down the bill than Liam Gallagher or George Ezra would be a crime of unspeakable proportions.

[CaledonianGonzo]

And yet he's neither a headliner nor a legend. If Elvis Costello can do it then so can Van.

He's not really that big anymore now. Maybe he could headline West Holts or the Acoustic tent

Burt Bacarach played 4th from top in 2015 and is about the same stature.

I bring that up because Burt was apparently a very late booking, and according to the rumours at the time he was a direct replacement for Van Morrison who'd had to drop out.

Half a dozen (at least) fair to middling sized open goals been hoofed into row Z. Wonder if it’s booking policy, lack of cash or something else? Holding off being too critical till the full lineups are released but there are enough acts ruled out through other bookings that weekend in Europe to make me feel a little concerned.

Keep the faith brothers. Next poster drop...

Any chance of Matt Corby? Looks a decent gap in his tour schedual http://www.mattcorby.com/tour
