Who Is Missing?

[SighMo]

Was hoping to see Ezra Furman on the list but there's plenty of time yet....fingers crossed.

Shame are playing European festivals and are free GF weekend. Would expect to see them midway down the JP.

Idlewild have got a new album out soon any chance they'll be making an appearance at the farm 

[SwedgeAntilles]

Shame are great live, they'd be a welcome addition

Idlewild where superb in Avalon in 2015.  If they are back then keeping them on a smaller stage rather than early doors on a bigger one would be my preference.

Never seen them but I enjoyed Songs of Praise so would be happy to.

Maggie Rodgers is in Belfast on the Thursday and the Gloucester on Thursday 4th July. Would've thought she'd be there. She played last time but that doesn't seem to have stopped other people being booked. Maybe she just doesn't fancy it this time.

Didn't see them in Avalon but seen them a few times they're a brilliant live band but would agree the intensity of their shows are more suited to smaller, indoor stages. I think they'd be good on Williams Green

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.

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

I went to his book signing in Manchester on Tuesday night. I asked him should I be disappointed he's not on the first line up release and he said no... watch out for the full line up ? We then had a chat about his last Glastonbury in 2015. He said he's looking forward to playing again as it feels like ages since he was last there ?

Not read the whole thread so may have been mentioned but I'm still holding out hope that Doves will be added

Going to their warm up gig in Warrington next week, great to have them back

Think they’re nailed on to be honest.

JP or Park Headliner maybe?

Park headliner sounds right, although I wouldn’t bet against them rocking up halfway down the Other. I’ve been surprised by how low they’ve been billed on a few lineups this summer.

Are you from the North West? They are much bigger around here than anywhere else.

No, but I did live in Manchester for a number of years.

I thought their comeback would generate more hype than it has. I'd have expected them to be higher up the bill at the likes of Victorious and Tramlines. Although I have noticed they're also headlining Kendall.

In conclusion they're a tough one to place.

Personally, I thought they were another indie landfill band and wouldn't have expected them to be higher up than someone like Razorlight or The Kooks would be if they were playing

Ouch.

I thought they were ok to be honest, but never going to set the world alight. 

[Stubbsy55]

Camelphat have self confirmed, what stage/slot do we reckon for them?

[fred quimby]

I am still hang out hope for Chinese Man - doing a few festivals around Europe around then. Night time on the Glade would be brilliant

To be clear, I can't even recall ever hearing them, it's just the impression I've got based off their image and their following

Nah, they pre-dated landfill indie by a good few years and we’re a cut above most of that nonsense too.

Super band. Along with Doves and Teenage Fanclub (who are touring and have a Glastonbury dates gap in their schedule), would be great additions

[sam1981]

Jason Lytle (Grandaddy) has announced a gig in London on 3rd June. Maybe he can hang about a bit and see the sights in London for 3 weeks before playing Glastonbury??

Agreed all of the above would make excellent additions 

[mjfromthelane]

Probably covered off multiple times in the thread but I was pretty shocked/gutted none of Foals, The 1975, BMTH, Slaves, Anderson Paak, AJ Tracey made it on the initial announcement. They've all brought out new albums in the past 3-6 months.
