Surely nailed on to play this year but what stage do you reckon JP....Park....Pyramid..?

[The Nal]

Park headliner would be pretty sweet

[thrillhouse188]

No idea where, but would be really surprised not to see them there, critics raving over JOY and a decent amount of mainstream radio exposure, no brainer

[FakeEmpire]

High up JP would be good - it would be rammed but atmosphere would be brilliant.

Wouldn't be surprised to see them mid Other Stage perhaps with a Thursday Williams Green show as well so they can have one with a big crowd and one sweatier one.

[Brave Sir Robin]

Mid-Other I reckon. And I had thought they could be a Left Field headliner (à la Enter Shikari a couple of years back), but they might be too big for that now.

[deschwah]

anywhere

it will be one of 'those' thats for sure

saw 76 bands last year and they were streets ahead of everyone

[marathonsteve]

Saw them at EOTR Really good

[nikkic]

JP would be the best fit I reckon. 

They deserve better than the bleakness of The Other stage. 

[HeyPorter]

About time they had their own topic. Late Park or JP hopefully. 

[fred quimby]

Really got into them since Joy, brutalism I enjoyed but Joy really does take it up a notch for me.

Will be heaving where ever they play but really hope they are there as I expect them to be.

Bit old to be down the front but bet it will be mental.

They said on the radio not long back that they want to play the Park as the sun's setting so I reckon they'll sub it. Thought they may have been too big for that but they're getting pretty low billings all over the shop.

[shuttlep]

John Peel before or after the Doves

[Hugh Jass]

I reckon they'll play more than one set over the weekend.

Park sub one day, mid Other/high JP the next.

[foolee]

I see on some other threads people are predicting these to sub park on the Friday, is there any reason to think they'll play the Friday? As I'd like to watch Liam Gallagher and have never been to Glasto so I am assuming it'd be impossible to get from the Pyramid to the Park after Liam to enable me to watch both acts....

I can get on board with this, if one of the sets is in Williams Green.

[Wooderson]

Saturday, Other, late PM.  Box office.

[tjamest]

Other opener could wake a few people up

Too big for WG surely? Especially on the Thursday, it'd be chaos.

[Curlygirl]

Thursday Williams Green and high John Peel  would  make me very happy.

You'd hear them from Avalon though!

I think they'll be opening up for Mik Artistik.

The CN Bandstand will be lively 5pm on Weds.

Much bigger acts have played that slot. It just gets packed outside.

Thursday would be a bad idea, but there are also 3 other days, that wouldn't be so bad.

Not if you get there early like. It’s a standard secret set thing every year. That’s a fair bit more likely than an announced placing during the day on another day.

But, bearing in mind that they’re billed in the next rung below Frank Ferdinand and Jorja Smith at Boardmasters, I feel like some suggestions such as evening Other are a bit carried away.
