I've been thinking about this but then will I be in any fit state on Monday to go to a gig?

Depends how hard you intend on going at Glastonbury, but I know I personally couldn’t think of anything worse than trying to keep the party going on the Monday. I’d really struggle.

I’ve also been considering this but after seeing them previously with a chronic hangover I recalled it was not an enjoyable experience. Too many woozy guitar solos for my fragile head and mental state.

Does anyone think we might be lucky enough to get a PJ Harvey appearance? 

She's announced two "in conversation" appearances for her upcoming book Orlam - one in June in London, one in May in Bath.  

Considering her "Glasto at home" performance, as well as the fact that the book is topical at least geographically, I am hopeful.  Some readings and a chat could be a nice noon slot at the park or something

A gig on Monday would be horrible! It's a time for a proper bed and sleep.

Oh man, I’d be so happy to see Jon Spencer on the farm. Would be very surprised though, sadly.

[TheDayman]

Just noticed Boys Noize has nothing in his calendar for June. He's touring around Europe in April & May though and is playing Benacassim in July.

[TheDayman]

Trentemøller - another one with a big gap on their tour schedule in June.

[TheSheriff]

Could play the Friday

Would love to see Black Honey on the farm. JP or Williams Green would be perfect. Saw them on their last touring Brighton. Outstanding.

Think they'd have been on the poster if they were playing.

Yeah they would be headlining the other stage or subbing the pyramid. Can’t see it.

Ah well, just occurred to me this morning, had a look on their website's Tour Date section and nothing there until September. Probably far too much to hope for a repeat on 2016's Other Stage double connector of New Order and LCD Soundsystem.

I do think they are due a return though. Perhaps headlining the other again.
