Is there a current C, TBC, SR etc. list somewhere on the forum? Would it be possible to have a topic that is just the list, with no comments, so it's easy to find and return to? (I apologise if all this has been thought about/covered before)

There isn't one but give me a minute.

Questions on self confirms:

I mean, it's good from attendees points of view but does it piss of the festival at all? Presumably the lower down the bill you are the more leeway? 

What actually accounts for a self confirm such as the above? Booking agencies jumping the gun and not knowing the unwritten rules etc?

It's an interesting question. Someone must have approved the poster, did they think the lineup would already have been out by now? Is it someone who has no clue they shouldn't be doing it or is someone doing it on purpose knowing they'll get a bit of publicity out of it?

Maybe they just want the additional sweet, sweet Spotify cash from @Brave Sir Robinadding them to his playlist ahead of the pack.

In this case with Courtney Barnett, as she's been announced for all those other festivals on there for a while (I think), I imagine its just they were always going to include all her festival shows and just didn't think to take Glastonbury off. Probably happens fairly often - wasn't that how we found out about Aerosmith?

Surely higher up is when you have more leeway as you have much more weight -  festivals need the headliners so if they self confirm they won't get pissy vs some random act lower down who could potentially be punished.

I think as long as you arent revealing stuff about other bands ( like 'we are supporting Radiohead doing a secret set on the other stage, cant wait') or new stages e.t.c, they dont really care if a band are saying they are playing the festival. Most bands chose not to,  so they preserve their own tours, their other festival slots e.t.c

I imagine the constant drip-feed of non-exclusive artists is a good thing for Glastonbury and they won't be too annoyed at it - keeps the hype at a nice level for a few months and probably staves off the "LINEUP WHEN?" brigade a little bit.

    • Not necessarily but it should be, Download have a habit of messing it uo when others get the bookings on point. Good Charlotte I doubt are playing 3rd down and that too 3 that day while dreamy is too strong. I think you'd have one another day to help sell weekend tickets. I also doubt Papa Roach play. 
    • Here's a bit of a wild stab, few placings may be off, and for all I know half of these won't actually be touring next year, but screw it, it's a bit of fun   Pyramid: Sabrina Carpenter, Phoebe Bridgers, TBA (Florence + The Machine), Garbage, The Last Dinner Party, Interpol, Alex James Britpop Classical Other: Chase & Status, Teddy Swims, Clairo, The Kooks, Zara Larsson, Kingfishr, Sports Team, Orbital West Holts: Robyn, Baby Keem, De La Soul, Deltron 3030, JID, Dua Saleh, kwn, Daniela Latila Woodsies: Bonobo, Darkside, TBA (Tame Impala), Laufey, Warmduscher, Wednesday, The Lottery Winners, The Royston Club, Florence Road Park: Patti Smith, Super Furry Animals, Slayyyter, The Cardigans, Skye Newman, Kelly Lee Owens, Teen Jesus & The Jean Teasers   Pyramid: Harry Styles, The xx, Richard Ashcroft, The Pogues, Jessie J, Sigrid, Travis Other: Rosalia, Sombr, Mitski, Alex Warren, Holly Humberstone, Cat Burns, Pale Waves, Yard Act West Holts: Basement Jaxx, Elyanna, Clipse, L’Imperatrice, Nation of Language, Jim Legxacy, Yazmin Lacey, RIP Magic Woodsies: Suede, Chvrches, Bleachers, MUNA, The Cribs, Keo, Bleech 9:3, The Lilacs Park: MARINA, Magdalena Bay, Jacob Alon, TBA (Lily Allen performs West End Girl), Getdown Services, Isaac Wood, Snail Mail, Madra Salach Pyramid: Sam Fender, Hozier, David Byrne, Cher, Obongjayar, David Gray, Billy Ocean Other: Doja Cat, Deftones, Addison Rae, Ren, Viagra Boys, Maisie Peters, The Reytons, Hard Life West Holts: Kano, Thievery Corporation, Angine De Poitrine, Thee Sacred Souls, Brooke Combe, Sasha Keable, Master Peace Woodsies: The Wombats, Metronomy, Geese*, Dry Cleaning, EsDeeKid, Sienna Spiro, Cowboy Hunters, Radio Free Alice Park: Big Thief, Laura Marling, MJ Lenderman, Richard Dawson, Oklou, Maruja, Dead Dads Club, Ratboys   *There's always one band booked for Woodsies that ends up being massively under-billed and gets shut down really early. They'd be better off playing somewhere like Other sub, but I could see the G getting them to play a smaller stage while it's still possible
    • Another Kraftwerk one for me today, as just back from seeing them.    
    • Completed my 2026 survey. Put down Super Furry Animals as my most wanted for next year but suspect the moment has gone for that. Popped a big shopping list in the box for who else you would like to see. 🙂
