That's the Mrs helping me pack for Glastonbury.

Nah. She's a big fan of the John Syked era, it's the Steve Vai stuff she doesn't like.

[DickButkis]

Black keys? (Wishful thinking)

[giantkatestacks]

Chaka Khan, on before Janelle.

That would be an excellent addition

[Guest]

Still waiting on Charli, Confidence Man, Carly Rae Jepsen, Marina, Kaytranada and a WH Friday headliner... Erykah Badu? Giorgio Moroder? Pusha T?

Just checked and shes stateside throughout.

[MetaKate]

I was hoping for St. Vincent also

[giantkatestacks]

Love St Vincent but we have had her relatively recently. Another for me would be kd lang's 25th anniversary tour of Ingenue. Have put off paying 50quid each for rubbish seats at the top and back of the Apollo.

New album due out so they may have been asked. Weve definitely had a few acts that size added before the final poster.

Dunno. After this album campaign is done it’ll probably be at least 2021 before she’s touring again, which would be way too long for Glasto to go without an appearance from one of this generation’s most exciting musicians. Even in 2014 she was only on the Park while most of the festival was preoccupied getting dinner after Ed Sheeran.

She more than merits a Pyramid slot at this point, and if we’re on about booking as many female acts as possible then you surely gotta start with booking acts like Annie more frequently than every seven years.

Kali Uchis

Same, especially as she's touring with Jorja Smith who's on there, fingers crossed she's added at some point!

[Matt42]

Quite upset at no cardi as I don’t think Glastonbury will get a chance again without booking her as a headliner  

[Losing my hair]

Would love to see Young Fathers, Khruangbin, Julia Jacklin, Fontaines DC, Stella Donnelly, Anna Calvi, BC Camplight. added.

Tash sultana was another name I was expecting but shes still fairly new so she might be on the next poster. 

Shes busy on the Friday and Sunday, so I guess its possible she aint playing (though a trip to Somerset on her way from london to Scotland aint that much of a detour)

[CaledonianGonzo]

Hoping that Kali Uchis will still crop up.

[Watergirl]

A few mentions for Frank Turner in this thread. In am still very hopeful he’ll be there. Avalon/Leftfield/Acoustic acts often do not get onto the poster.

I had been hoping for Richard Ashcroft....

Don’t know if the Duran Duran rumour is based on anything, but they would make for a great Other Stage opener.

[zico martin]

There's no other opener or rock slot incumbent on the poster is There?

Still time for erasure and Alice in chains to be added then

[D-Low]

Just remembered, James Blake.

He's hinted he's going to be there hasn't he?

Two omissions that I knew weren't playing, but bloody well should be are Groove Armada and (most importantly) The Lancashire Hotpots.

Both bands unable to get booked, despite wanting to play. 

I got tweeted back that reason GA aren't on the farm was because they weren't invited! 

[Ayrshire Chris]

Erasure,  Duran Duran, Whitesnake, King Crimson, Flaming Lips, Iggy, The Shires 

Cat Stevens (can’t spell his name change), Ralph McTell, 

[zeppelin]

I was hoping for:

Weezer, The Cat Empire, The Cinematic Orchestra, Groove Armada. 

[morph100]

We haven’t really got any DJs yet for Sonic, Shangri la etc yet have we
