I keep coming into this thread thinking that they've actually been confirmed.  any chance of sorting the title out?

I'm kind of in awe of people who can hear that. Some proper X-Men shit going on there. Witchcraft. Suspect you should all be burnt in some Wicker Man style sacrifice on the Wednesday evening as part o

That is fab, Mardy, and only increases my excitement to see VW again, but... The piano in Harmony Hall is the secret to that song's brilliance and, unfortunately, the band are not in tune with it

Glasto shaped gap in tour

Nice to know that Firefly date is the last american date, the two dates inbetween glasto we've known about for a while now but this defintely adds to the idea that glasto will kickstart all their europe festival dates, I certainly hope so, really worried they'll just play Citadel mid july

I'm sure Sigur Ros did Citadel and Glastonbury in 2016 so no reason they can't do both.

Vampire Weekend on the Pyramid last time was one of (perhaps THE) most disappointing crowd experiences I've ever had at a festival.

We were in a relatively decent spot but it was just full of people waiting for THAT song.   There were points where we wouldn't even hear the band because we were just surrounded by groups of people shouting amongst themselves as if the band were some annoying distraction.  They all faced the stage and went mental for A Punk and then quickly turned around again and got back on with their own conversations once it had finished.

I don't really mind a bit of chatter or whatever at festivals but this really was unbearable.   

Love them but I'd be giving them a miss if they're on the Pyramid again.

Good thing about them headlining a stage other than the Pyramid is that (you'd think) it'll just be people who actually want to see them there.

Happens a fair bit at the Pyramid, especially that time of day and even more so on the Sunday! Really hope they headline Other on the Friday
