So is today a legit possibility? How many days are we from the first announcement now? A smaller stage would be nice.

So it seems there has been announcement. Albeit an informal one about a Clashterfuck that noone wants. Great.

I was just referring to the John Hopkins/Chems/Hot Chip debacle... confirmed via an interview with The Chems..

Awful

That is terrible news. I wish I hadn't asked now!

Tough choice. Which one do I want to watch the least?

Seems odd to clash three electronic acts on the main stages. You'd think there'd be a bit more variety, no? 

Oh well, there's plenty of opportunities to see all of them elsewhere this year. I'll be seeing Hot Chip and Hopkins at Blue Dot, which should still be great ?

Yeah I completely agree. I feel like they normally mix it up a bit genre-wise. But there doesn't seem to be a way around it, unless one of the artists has posted duff info.

Old man in not liking electronic music shocker. I'm sure there'll be something on in Horlicks Hall for you Gnom

I'll be at The Killers while all the hip young 30/40 year olds are watching a groundbreaking act that formed 30 years ago play The Other stage for the 10th time.

I feel edgy watching Chems ngl.

[Ayrshire Chris]

Over the years at Glastonbury I’ve learned to explore, not to bother with going to the in vogue bands and not to let clashes bother us. There is always opportunities to see bands anytime throughout the year. Probably end up at the killers have a party singalong but who knows what might get our attention in another area. It’s the anticipation of the announcements that’s exciting and how they can totally change plans in an instant.

No.Fucking.Way

Not that the 13 year old me wouldn't have loved this, but....aside from all the obvious points, don't we have enough pop already?

Also, who were these "disappointed fans"??

[Zoo Music Girl]

I would totally watch them, tbh.

Makes more sense for next year, though, surely? Macca, Spice Girls and someone cool and contemporary?

That's how I read it, no way they're appearing this year.

I was going to create a separate thread for this .... although somerset live isn't the best of sources .. think I saw  it on Glastofest feed too ... don't know how true it is ... or when they were asked to play .... ( preferably sometime in Dec to an empty field ) 

[FloorFiller]

Really can’t see them headlining - surely a special guest slot or even the Sunday legend next year if they accept the offer. I know they’re a massive act but it’s all a bit too cheesy to be topping the bill.

I’ve been Looking at dates on the thingy this morning and I’d be absolutely amazed if we don’t get something next week.  The full line up and times are usually out around 30th May (45 days away).  There’s still so many stages left that get their own announcement that they have to be coming imminently!

I'll be shocked if there isn't at least something before the resale, but can't see it being the same day as the coach sale.

Can't see it being a weekend or bank holiday either so...

Monday - Thursday next week

Tuesday or Wednesday the week after.

My guess - this Wednesday.
