I've not heard them, and they may be the greatest band ever, but Dry Cleaning is absolutely one of the worst band names I have ever heard of.

That and Jock Strap.

I don’t know them either, but Glasto Chat is losing its mind about there being Dry Cleaning at Williams Green this year.

Not sure if this has been posted before but almost a confirmation

I see your Dry Cleaning and Jock Strap, and raise you Car Seat Headrest.

Paul Heaton on Twitter tonight. At least a confirmation he'll be onsite!

That's about the 3rd hint he's given, and they're in Bristol on the Friday, surely worthy of a SR (@eFestivals?) so I've added them to the playlist.

[Gnomicide]

I think Red Rum Club may just be wishful thinking on their part for now, though I know they're trying to get a gig. Whichever one runs the Twitter account said they'll be there anyway, even if they don't get one.

[Dronx]

I’d like Red Rum to be there. Gutted they clashed with 2 door at tramlines last year. They’d be class mid afternoon in John Peel.

they were listed as a rumour anyway. Now changed to SR.

Who else remembers Paul Heaton’s first Glasto appearance in 1986? Would have been Fatboy Slim’s first too.

I was there, but I remember not a lot. Mostly a lightening storm, and The Cure boring the pants off everyone.

Where would Paul Heaton & Jacqui Abbott play? I know they played early Other in 2016 and specifically remember opting for Mystery Jets instead. Are they destined to play late in the Acoustic or something so I'm bound to miss them?

They'd get a decent crowd on the Pyramid, early afternoon.

Add them to Sing-a-long-a-Saturday before Crowded House, Aerosmith, Noel & Macca.

Before my time, but I thought that set was regarded quite highly?

Must confess I would be there all day for that . All acts I've wanted to see before, but never have.

Yep, I think 2pm-ish Sunday Pyramid would be a good idea.

Their tours are getting bigger and bigger so I'm not sure Avalon or Acoustic are a good fit for them anymore.

It wasn't bad. But, you know, it was The Cure. "Play a happy tune now" some wit shouted.  

[Pinhead]

Followed by 'Friday I'm in Love' - surprised they played it in a way..

This is a game a friend and I play. We always build it up a bit first though...

Ladies and gentleman... LIVE on Stage....Give it up for....

Car Seat Headrest!

They attract huge crowds. I see audience forecasts for Leeds Arena with work and they are scheduled to have biggest crowd of all acts booked so far in 2020

So was I & the lightening was brilliant behind the pyramid when they were on

So I went to see The Big Moon at an album launch show in Leeds tonight. Now I wasn't paying full attention at the time (I got distracted, my bad) but my brother's pretty sure they said something about playing Glastonbury. 

Now obviously this is nothing like a self confirmation but figured worth mentioning. Either way, I think they're pretty damn likely to play. 

And on that, I assume Bombay Bicycle Club will play. Who The Big Moon are supporting on tour.
