Whilst I don't think they'll be playing, a gig in Europe the Sunday before and then not another show until the middle of July hardly rules them out. 

God I wish they were doing HV10 on the Sunday night.

It’s like me ruling myself out of work tomorrow because I went to work today.

Frank Turner’s in the Netherlands on the Friday. In theory he could make the other days, but given the amount of sets he tends to play at Glastonbury, I think it’s safe to rule him out.

I wouldn't rule him out quite yet personally! Could easily be there Saturday and/or Sunday. He's someone I imagine will be very keen to get on the bill for the 50th.

I reckon that’s either bull or someone’s searched “Glastonbury” and uncovered the posts of him self confirming for last year.

I joined the group but could find absolutely no reference to him playing this year so I wouldn't give it too much weight.

Heard a bit on 6 Music just now that Michael Kiwanuka isn't playing...which is annoying

Nick Mason's Saucerful of Secrets added more dates to their European jaunt which means they now only have Sat 27th free for a Glasto slot.

Looking unlikely imho 😟

I reckon this lineup is so stacked that it’s pushed bands like Bombay off the lineup.

edit; also they literally have dates around glasto and weekend free. Did they just not get the call or what?

Unless they're lying. But I don't see why they'd answer if they were.

Oh wow, I just assumed they'd be there. Wasn't even a question in my mind that they wouldn't.

Stick a post on there. It may be a while ago but I've definitely not imagined it. 

 

Whether or not the person who made the claim is talking bollocks or not, obviously I can't say.
