Sounds like it's bigger than Bundoran...  wow, wiki says just under 2k people, smaller than I remember!

I think its bigger than that - no way is a 2k festival getting Kasabian

I was talking about the population of the town, I've never been to the festival 🙂

The absence of Paramore from the R&L lineup surely makes them a bit more likely for Glastonbury? Assuming the headliners are AM, GNR, Elton, then you have some very appropriate subs in Pulp, Paramore, Lizzo

They've not been announced for a single EU festival next summer so I doubt they'd make a special trip for Glastonbury. They might be stretching it out to do 2024 festivals instead.

They do have a #GSH and I'm sure I remember seeing someone post a while ago that they said they would do a couple of european festivals (although to be fair I'm struggling to find the source for this)

That was me, tried to find the source but it was a random Facebook video of a Radio 1 interview they did around the launch of This Is Why about their UK plans for the new album.

They have a random 3 week gap in their usa tour over glasto weekend.

For purely selfish reasons I'd want QOTSA to sub Arctic Monkeys instead of headlining Other v Elton, then Lizzo to headline Other against Arctics. Stick Pulp on before Elton, job's a good un.

death grips odds at glastonbury getting better. Although there is a possibility they no show all these shows they have been booked for 

I'd like to see warpaint again

That was pretty recently, what was the exact wording? I doubt they would say they had European festivals lined up if it wasn’t true, especially as this was only a couple months ago, keep the faith!

Apologies if it’s already listed, I did a quick search and couldn’t see anything. James and The Levellers are playing the usual Bristol Ampitheatre gigs Glastonbury weekend which usually means they’ll be somewhere on the bill.

 

edit: ignore me just found it a couple of pages back.

Which one?

I'm sure I'm not going to be the only one who still has a bad taste in their mouth from the time The Jacksons headlined West Holts a few years back. Easily the worst headline set I've seen anywhere at Glastonbury. Granted part of it wasn't their fault - there was a pretty heavy wind heading straight into the stage and it pretty much blew away the sound. As a result it was impossible to hear anything worthwhile past the sound desk - however what I will blame them (or their crew) for is that even in front of the sound desk the mix was diabolical, in particular the vocals were mixed way too low.

Unlikely. Both bands are operating at mere fractions of their original lineups.

[kalifire]

Jacob Collier's added a new date for Bristol Sounds on June 22nd (Glasto Thursday).

Got to be in contention.

West Holts easy.

 

The Jacksons had terrible sound in 2017. And how do you go from WH headliner to Legend anyway.

That or JP. If he tries the 'audience choir' thing he does, that would definitely benefit from an enclosed setting.

I agree … I persisted but things didn’t get any better … we were forward of the sound stage on the path to the right but all we could hear was shouts of people complaining that they couldn’t hear

It was terrible, we left to see Dohl Foundation in Avalon, which had a tiny crowd, but were excellent.

Trying to stay positive but the amount of middle-of-the-road shite basically self-confirming glasto is making me nervous.
