Love the listings of the songs there just in case you forgot which ones TLC did.

Orchestra set up on Big Pointy feels like a start of day affair.

Although admittedly the likes of Adele have had extensive orchestral backing later on in the day.

Ach. Not so unusual for acts on the nostalgia train. You want to know a band are playing the hits before forking out. 

Similarly

Mad Cool plays some sort of "Wheel of Fortune" where one letter per day gets unlocked (the one with the most likes on Instagram).

Looks like there's no Taylor on there, they had her booked for 2020...

Tbh I wasn’t expecting Taylor on this lineup either way. Feels like whatever she does next year will look quite different to 2020. Also, if she is there she might be held off this poster until her own dates are announced.

Anyway, not sure I can work out any of those names?! Love the gimmick though

edit - yeah I reckon three headliners are being held off this for the last three days. Curious if one of the non T names there are Billie.

further edit: Lorde could be the very last name.

I think Taylor Swift will announce all her dates at once like she did before, so I didn’t expect her on this lineup yet anyway. I normally don’t use this logic but it looks like they’ve only got three headliners on one day and two on the others. I think this year they said they’d have three each day so very possible that they still have headliners to announce.

Yeah I think those symbols are meant to be asterisks, so it’ll probably be clear when the letters are revealed that there are three left.

Taylor was on a day with two headliners last time - not sure if that would indicate she won’t be a missing headliner or not? RHCP could be there as well as a missing one

Leak. Big if true.

[kingcrawler]

Probably more likely for their own dates but get Nine Inch Nails in for one of the replacement Other headliners.

Yeah I’ve completely given up what little hope I had of them being at Glastonbury, but just any U.K. date will do at this point!

Massive set of headliners.

Would GnR do back to back dates? Not too much of a trek from France. Eyeing them up as my personal hope for a Macca replacement if he’s out.

What with us hearing they wanted Nine Inch Nails to headline All Points East in 2020, that seems like a lock. Unless Trent agrees to sub Biffy at Download for old times' sake.

It'd have to be a replacement and a shuffle, with them headlning Hellfest on the Samedi.

Seems like they've done b2b dates in the States but not in Europe.

Yeah that was my first thought. Usually I’d prefer something closer, but APE more often than not do pretty great undercards so I imagine a day of acts suited to NIN would be killer and worth the trip.

Smashing Pumpkins would be sweet. My Bloody Valentine too although they'd have been on the Prima bill.

Would Pavement be out of place?

Iggy Pop’s around in May. Potential for a pretty great bill if Goldenvoice are looking for ideas.

If Alice Cooper is happy subbing a festival in France could we get him to the farm Saturday or Sunday?

Rock slot?

[jparx]

My perpetual hope for Deftones to stop by the farm lives on another year. Just absolutely nowhere I can see them playing, either from their POV or the festivals. Deftones would want Other headline and the festival would offer them Other sub I’d guess

If they can’t tempt Aerosmith back then he’s not a bad call to replace him. Maybe even stick him on before…

[Suprefan]

K, gimme NIN and a surprise Depeche Mode  headline slot and its GOTH GLASTO!!! YAASSSS

Get Reni and Mani in too. That would be a band I'd see.

I think what disappoints me most about this is Noel resorting to tired alt.right cliches. At the very least you could count on him to be a bit original with his insults.

Noel is just trying to stay relevant. He's got a greatest hits coming out for some unknown reason.

[sisco]

Just got this email through and it puts HAIM at Nos Alive next year just after Glastonbury.  (Not sure if an announcement has been made but haven’t seen it here).

Also a date with The Music, The Cribs, The…. Coral, now The Snuts!! Oh The Skinner Brothers

I think all evidence at the moment points towards it being Aerosmith despite that band member getting cold feet

[Matt42]

Either way - this coming week we should get a good top up of acts touring around Glasto. Rock Werchter and Mad Cool hopefully dropping some names.

RW may just be Metallica though as this week it looks like Tallica are being announced for RW, HellFest, and Mad Cool. So RW may not tell us anything new just yet!

[dentalplan]

One of probably very few brand new names to be announced by Mad Cool looks to be St. Vincent. Been a while for her so would be good to have her back.
