The poster 2020

[MetaKate]

I realized I missed Brittany Howard as well. I wonder what shes like without the rest of the band.

52/48 apparently, the women have it!

That's fucking excellent work. Comfortably makes Geoff Ellis look like more of a dick than he did around an hour ago.

Would love to have seen Chemical Brothers and Kasabian on the list , my first Glasto so still plenty to get excited about fingers crossed

[Stevie P-alike]

A whopping forty-one on there for me after playing Brave Sir Robin's playlist almost non-stop for about 2 months now. Well worth the effort.

Somebody who works at the BBC has just told me that Lana del Ray has cancelled already. Anybody else heard that one?

This is such a weird lineup for me. There's a nice handful of names I like, but I feel a bit disappointed.

I think the 2019 poster was so strong that this one is kinda pale in comparison. Remember last year when Miley was on there? It was MASSIVE... Now the biggest pop for me is Confidence Man.

I don't know if I expected too much or what, but I feel like that lineup is kinda weak for a Glasto lineup. I hope everyone else is happy though!

I get what you mean. On a personal note, I think the undercard is absolutely stacked in terms of middling/smaller acts, but being lucky (gig wise!) enough to live in London, there's no one there I'm gutted to miss as can probably catch them at a show separately or have already seen recently. Obviously seeing them in the sunshine at Glasto would be much better though!

I still really want to go and will give the resale a whirl, but I wouldn't be as gutted as when I missed out in 2017.

Seems to be pleasing a lot of people here which is good!

Caribou is gonna be an absolute party.

I refreshed my phone on the way home and saw the lineup...clicked the link and my battery died. I literally shouted 'No' on the train.

I know she has cancelled a lot of earlier dates due to illness 

[D-Low]

Plenty I'd see but most I already have before. Considering it's the 50th anniversary was anyone else kind of hoping for, I don't know, more?

Nothing really stand out from this. I know this is only the initial poster with plenty more to come but nothing about this shouts 50th anniversary.

[Earth_pig]

26 I've counted I would be really happy to see, probably end up seeing about 6 of them though haha

Doubt she's cancelled in the last hour

[Anarion]

Correct me if I'm wrong, but this must be the earliest the first poster has been dropped in years?

I have tickets for Roskilde, trying for tickets for Glastonbury in the resale of course, but nothing on that poster excites me as much as The Strokes at Roskilde does. It's weird, but both festivals seems to have given a big middle finger to rock bands this year.

I was hoping for more. Something like wow. It's not bad, there is quality there, but I was expecting something much bigger. There are festivals in Europe with stronger line ups / bigger names

I imagine they will have had a latest word from the acts before releasing the poster.

Perhaps they're mixed up with cancelling the spring tour?

If sunday is a women day, i could imagine Aerosmith as Taylors sub. 

[mttJ]

7 I'm looking forward to and a further 9 I'd be happy to see, not a bad start to be honest. Surprised not to see Aerosmith and Royal Blood on there with the information we've had.

Dude only looks like a lady

[maelzoid]

I echo many here. Absolutely superb.

Disappointed not to see Aerosmith there, but hopefully that's not an issue and they're definitely playing.

Biggest surprise: Herbie Hancock

[MetaKate]

The thing with surprises is, you cant spend every second trying to figure out the surprise and then also be disappointed you weren't surprised. 

It's like when I was little and I used to peel back the tape and open my presents when no one was around. I knew what I was doing.

My thoughts. Mad Cool springs to mind. Seem to be sharing a LOT of the acts and plenty more to my tastes. I'm sure there'll be hundreds more when the full line up is out but I'm not overwhelmed with this in the slightest.

I'm the flip. There's way more here for me this year, but last year had lots of middling with no must sees. So I get where you're at, sure you'll have a great time nonetheless though

I'm in the same boat mate. Everyone on the lineup I'd want to see, I've seen before or am seeing before the festival anyway, bar Macca and Taylor.. And even then, it looks like my girlfriend and I will be split up when they're on due to clashes!

No Doves.....but I suspect an album and tour to sell prior to them being added 🤞
