Acts Ruled out of Glastonbury 2020

[Stokesy10]

Stereophonics are apparenlty not playing Glasto. I messaged their manager/PA person and she confirmed they're not, and added: "We aren't playing... There's not that many bands who are lucky enough to headline Glastonbury as we did back in 2000,  and then get to go back and perform again. Thanks Natalie"

If we give you a list of bands / artists, do you think you could individually message each of their managers and PAs and check if they're playing or not?

We'll have the full line-up before we know it!

Ha, interesting humility, but I don't agree with it - could just play a lower slot (no reason why they should though).

Yeh I thought the same. Especially as their stock has dropped considerably, particularly with a Glasto audience.

Coincidentally, my brother is in Zurich watching them at the mo. He just arrived stupidly early and got the thumbs up from Kelly during his sound check.

I was surprised to see how many No1 albums they had in the UK tbh. Their first 2 are world class for me, and they've had the odd tune since.

[Calvin Klein]

I guess Beck is out.

Would say Wilco is out even with a 2 day gap. Not very ideal. 

June 25 - Murcia, ES @ Plaza Del Toros
June 28 - Barcelona, ES @ Suite Festival

Jason Isbell and the 400 unit just announced a big tour but in the US over Glastonbury weekend ( not that I expected them) playing a few dates in the UK in November

Good news.

I had the misfortune to catch him at the Mandala stage a few years ago (maybe 2015?) and it stands out as being - by far - the worst thing I've ever seen at Glastonbury.

Eden sessions announced and marketed as the only other show they are doing in the UK other than MK

[Matt42]

Haha

[zeppelin]

I wonder if they got the message? Can anyone else back us up? 

[Doug85]

Didn't think they would headline other anyway but the Mrs will be disappointed. Still fairly certain that Royal Blood are doing the Friday.

I heard they can't do it for some kind of Eden reason.

I still think PSB will be on Friday. Wouldn't be surprised to see Royal Blood being on Sunday though.

Who wants to bet slowthai will be dropped from the lineup?
