Yeah, it's like "well shit, what can we do, we're going to have a good run at it and hope".

 

Good on 'em.  Imagine it now, it's the height of summer, we've got through all this shit and we're all meeting up in the fields of avalon, flimsy cup of cider in hand and thankful that we made it as we catch up with old friends.  That's the thought to cling to.

massively underwhelmed by the lineup so far, but, its Glastonbury and it'll be amazing, just glad we've got some good news and hopefully a festival to go to in June

 

edit: on closer inspection, there are some decent artist lower down the poster

Maybe waiting on them selling out their arena gigs?

On first glance there's a lot of acts that I want to see but not loads that are must sees. It's a great start though!

Seems strange their big names and would look so good on the poster, still loads I wanna see and others I will see at other festivals I’m working at

Another year with a good breadth of talent.  Lots for everyone there I reckon.  I'm certainly very happy with what I've seen, not least with the knowledge that there's always more to come.  Now it's time to start sweating on clashes.  There are a few names on the bill I've missed the chance to see in the past that I hope to get to see at last.  Suzanne Vega at a glastonbury venue has been a long held dream that has eluded me thus far.

Yeah, aside from the top line, this hasn't been presented in any order of billing. I like that.

edit: just realised it's alphabetical. duh.

    • What is too old for Leeds Fest now ?  I'm going to the Fontaines Saturday in a few weeks at 54 !!!  I may be the oldest there 🙂    Wythenshawe may be an option for WA.
    • Pretty much all festivals lose out on major artists because of production limitations though. Glastonbury is no different to most other festivals.  Lots of acts can/will adapt their tour production to suit festival stages if they want to play them, but some acts with stage designs and routines just don't want to adapt, and would rather just stick with a rigid, well-rehearsed production and take the money for their own gigs, whether that's a lot more than playing Glastonbury, or slightly less than playing some other festivals (but with added complications). Trying to adapt the stage, layout, access to b-stages etc to accommodate a single headliner on a Friday and then having to change it all around for a Saturday headliner isn't really a goer when most headliners can just easily adapt their show to stay on a main stage, if they're so inclined. They have a year to figure out how to perform a song on a main stage and ditch a few dance routines out on a b-stage if they really put their mind to it. It's not that difficult......
    • I would be all over Wolf Alice but may have outgrown this venue.    Also have to consider the schedule they have been on this year so may be on a break.  This last 10 days alone they did Tramlines, New York, Chicago and Kendal Calling.  Although make hay while the sun shines may come into play.
