Would be good headlining the other stage 

[Freddyflintstonree]

Wasn't sure where best to request this, or if there already is one, but feel like here fits -

I think it would be good to have an 'Acts Ruled out of Glasto 2020' thread thats regularly updated, as there was last year. I would make it but I am sadly not regular enough to keep it updated.

Perhaps it's a bit early...

That's got Avalon stage headliner all over it 

Acoustic Stage more likely, I'd say.

I'm sure others would help keep it updated. Those we know are in the studio/not touring, those that we know are playing elsewhere that weeknd. 

As I've come to notice with this board, it's never too early for a thread. I'm surprised we haven't seen a 2021 headliners thread yet

okeechobee festival has sprung a leak apparently. Not sure if it’s real or not. Nothing major but the inclusion of Mumford & Sons is a ... little... concerning.

Billy Banjo and the lads were touring in the UK last summer and never made the farm so I wouldn’t be too concerned.

Would this be the first confirmation that Glass animals are back after the drummer had that accident?

Who is ‘Alison Wonderland’? Should be booked on the back of the name alone.

[Sargey Babes]

Just thinking this morning, I know they're working on RTJ4 - I'd love to see Run the Jewels at Glastonbury 

[Avalon_Fields]

Thom Yorke is doing some gigs in June - Manchester and London (Must be a high chance of Glastonbury!?)

That's as good as a confirmation to me.

Does he drop any Radiohead numbers during his solo shows?

[Tommy101]

I can picture the shudders of die hard fans as someone down the front shouts 'Play Creep!'

He did Spinning Plates t'other day, but generally speaking I don't think he does much Radiohead.

[PDAD]

Yeah, Reckoner is his most played song by Radiohead but even that has only been played 9 times overall.

Yeah he’s there. Someone who said he was doing west holts is probably on the money!

Surely worth an inclusion on the rumour page Neil? @eFestivals

[SwedgeAntilles]

Great news, ANIMA is one of my favourite albums of the year, would be a great headliner on The Park or WH

[Hugh Jass]

Why would Yorke be on WH? Doesn't seem the right fit to me.

Park more likely surely?

done already.

Tho not for West Holts. I'm struggling to see Thom on that stage given the acts that normally get booked for that stage. Not impossible i guess tho.

"Someone"

You mean you're going to get down the front and shout "play Creep!" aren't you?

Might have an in though - Jonny G played there recently, and they've had a (loosely speaking) electronic-y headliner  most recent years -- his TMB shows have a similar kinda vibe to a Jon Hopkins set

[Earth_pig]

I saw Thom Yorkes modern boxes this summer in Bilbao BBK.

Definitely an acquired taste, I enjoyed it but don't expect any Radiohead bangers, lots of bleeps and blips, quite trippy but not for everyone.

That wasn't a great success though... ?

That said, by all means put him on opposite Swizzle.
