Lawks! It's only the 2019 Next Announcement Thread!

Think “Jopkins” might be even worse than “Eavii”.

Fri - As it stands looks a bit barren headliner wise. I think it could be SE corner / Arcadia  / wormhole all night for me.

Timing of that Gojira set is everything, but if you're willing to make small sacrifices (for me, essentially, that means not seeing the final chord of the final song fade to silence at the end of some sets), and you're a bit of a transfer ninja, you can do it all!!!

Transfer ninja, dance monkey ?

West Holts really is the best position to do the dash too

I've already made peace with the fact that if I want to be at that monumental Gojira show I must forego J-Hop. Sacrilege to some, even myself maybe, but Gojira in an unfamiliar, relatively intimate outdoor setting is gonna be off the Richter. 

Sorry Jon, our paths will cross once more in the future.

I'm not missing Gojira for the world, seen em 4 times and have never been disappointed. Does anyone know how long their set will be ?

Incredible. He pulled off something so unlikely, I'm going to see if he can get me in to the G.

Unless the Park, JP or Acoustic pull something out of the bag Friday night is looking pretty sparse for me.

I was thinking the same a couple of weeks ago but now Friday is looking rammed for me with the following in play.

Tame Impala, Frank Turner, Luke’s Nelson & PTR, Jorja Smith, comet is Coming, Morcheeba, Billy Bragg, SAM Fender, Kate Tempest

Saturday is my concern!

Me neither! Can't imagine it'll be any more than 75-90 minutes though, seeing as they have their own gigs on the Saturday and Sunday. Get on, smash out the hits. Gonna be huge. And loud.

You think?

For that to be true, either:

(a) Gojira would need to be playing very soon after JH finishing, with an adequately (for the Truth stage) enormous already in place, having foregone main stage headliners or

(b) you take an age to get mobilised to Shangri-La after Jopkins finishes!

After James Blake headlined WH I left during the final number and was in the SEC before most of the festival had got its boots on!

Timing of that Gojira set is everything, but if you're willing to make small sacrifices (for me, essentially, that means not seeing the final chord of the final song fade to silence at the end of some sets), and you're a bit of a transfer ninja, you can do it all!!!

You are, as always the purveyor of truth, Ben. My thinking is that they might be on at around 10pm though as they have their own gigs on the Saturday, Sunday and Monday and I'd imagine they don't wanna hang about for too long. I doubt it makes much difference but they have a hefty schedule before and after Glastonbury. 

Either way, 10pm or midnight I wanna get a good spot for them and for me that involves being over in the SE corner from early evening. To be honest, it was always my plan to sack off Friday's main stage headliners to get over to the Naughty Corner anyway, then Gojira came along and sealed the deal. 

A part of me is also gambling on a Hopkins DJ set somewhere across the weekend. Dare I suggest the revamped Arcadia or Block 9...?

Happy to be educated accordingly. If only there was a website informing me of such essential and non-essential announcement facts...

Do we know a Friday Park or JP headliner yet? Currently weighing up a reliably banging set from Jopkins vs a dice roll on Stormzy.

Would imagine Snow Patrol/Interpol have one or two of the JP headline slots. Placebo a strong rumour as well could play there. EDIT: The Streets must be a JP headline act.

Park I Imagine will be The Good, The Bad & The Queen and possibly Cat Power/Christine & The Queens.

I dunno, given his placement they cant be the missing sub on the Sunday so I dunno where they would fit (unless its a secret set)

What a rollercoaster of emotions in the space of 30 seconds.

From the initial announcement where I was underwhelmed, this lineup is incredible now

Fun fact, I used to work with Grace. Doubt she'd remember me now though, it was about eight or nine years ago.
