Listening to the new Karen O/Danger Mouse record right now lamenting that very fact. Sore one.

All is not lost. Only first poster and more surprises to come assuming they've not been ruled out for any particular reason. 

 

Also missing is Gaga.

Gerry very possible. Foals could be the final Other Stage headliner and even if not, look likely for the secret set and Elbow could make an appearance. This really isnt many acts at all.

Give me some examples in recent years, if ye can, of decent acts announced after the poster.  I'm happy with what we've got but always want more.

I doubt she’s anywhere on most people's lists but I would love to see Mabel. We caught her doing a short set at Bestival last year and she was great and has some more material now.

I’d be surprised if she wasn’t on somewhere early in the day on the Other Stage.

Also - I love the idea of her and her mum guesting on each other’s sets!

Off the top of my head Liam Gallagher after the poster in 2017...

Chvrches very disappointing. They are in Europe before, US after. They’ve seemingly made the call to headline a smaller US date than play the farm. Who knows if they were even offered anything? 10 months into a tour, maybe they have June 2020 pencilled in to finish up this cycle. 

Camelphat surely are going to appear on a subsequent poster. 

From an Australian perspective, no Rufus Du Sol, DMA’s, Confidence Man or Stella Donnolly.

I thought the fact the Foals are touring and have a new album they were certs. But they seem too big not to be on first poster, but not big enough to get an announcement of their own, so I'm starting to doubt they are playing :(

secret set most likely, they're off the whole of Glastonbury weekend, with UK gigs a few days before, and playing Dublin on the Tuesday after...

Had a look at the most recent prediction (from @01seb) in the Stage Predictions thread, quite a few noticeable absences from who we thought was in consideration;

Childish Gambino, Iggy Pop, Kaiser Chiefs, Richard Ashcroft, Of Monsters & Men, Miles Kane, Superorganism, Parquet Courts, Franz Ferdinand, Silk City,  Suede, Drenge, Public Service Broadcasting, Mitski, Lewis Capaldi, Snail Mail, Sports Team, Jess Glynne, The Vaccines, Courteeners, James Blake, Editors, Frank Turner & the Sleeping Souls, The Hives, Four Tet, Tash Sultana, Charlotte Gainsbourg, Jade Bird, Doves, The Joy Formidable, Confidence Man, Amber Arcades

I'm calling Wolf Alice for a TBA/Surprise set somewhere.  Based on absolutely nothing but a feeling after the Mercury award and them announcing a few summer dates when they were rumored to be taking time out for a while.  Would love to see them there.

I reckon with Diplo, Miley and Tame Impala on the poster we can expect Mark Ronson to pop up on a smallish scale this year.  He's been doing loads of producing / collaborating with those lot. His dj set with kevin parker 3am on the hell stage was amazing and totally not the sort of music youd normally hear down that end of the festival.

    • Another note, if I didn't mention the food in the arena for main stage is right at the back. Bands wise they do very well for but as a festival so far they pros are outweighed quite heavily currently for me.
    • On another note for RIP as an event, there is some good things but there are so many things people going to UK festivals would hate and how far behind they are.  Consistent network and water, beer and pretzel like food is brought around to buy in the crowds. Topping up on the wristband is good. The camping and food arrangement is not good, you really need cooking kit. Water points inside the arena are bonkers, water points in camping are a faff unless you are close enough in general camp. Merch stands are crazy. You MASSIVELY need to think about your lidl shop for camping and try and do it so you've one stop. It's definitely worth it getting to a camping shop here, picking up a rolley between your mates and stacking it for the walk back....lidl is cheap though, not hard getting in but Thursday queues getting in and into the camping is mad. You have to register first for a wristband as well leaving any bigger bags behind so pull to a side if only two and do it separately. I was joining a WhatsApp group for solo camp so went with the flow but I've learnt. Had it been me or just two my tent would have been down much quicker.  Big final note, I got a fresh and black 3 man from decathlon before coming and put in bigger suitcase with my airbed and sleeping bag...do this. Take a smaller option for your clothes. If you go to Munich first, book your train to Nuremberg as far in advance as you can....very important!....it hikes crazy. Probably bettee overall for baggage sizes to do BA both ways but you do then need to go back to Munich after too. Use the B&B hotel hbf the night before....its very nice, comfortable, cheap and within 10 minutes of the station which also serves as a transport stop 15 minutes from the registration.  Get up literally like 5am with everything back the night before, shower and go. Transport is free anyway for festival ticket holders during the duration.  Would I just choose to travel in each day and back to a hotel?, on the basis of sleep and getting accommodation cheap enough for 3 nights i might just do especially if I picked the ticket up early enough. It doesn't feel like a festival in a normal sense....unless you are in general yoi have to exit on the paths outside the camping to walk down and in which also applies for getting water so have a stock up. Toilets are in the camping.
