R, SR, TBC & C

[Gnomicide]

As mentioned in a couple of places (including @AtomsForPizza in the Self Confirmed thread), with the rest of the site being down, it would be good to have a list of acts rumoured, self confirmed etc. in one place.

I've been keeping a list of acts touring around the dates of the festival and highlighted the names I think fall into the R, SR, TBC and C categories. 

There will be loads I've missed so feel free to cut and paste with any updates. Please leave as genuine rumours rather than ones you think will play and leave the chat elsewhere, just update the list here when something is worth adding.

Fatboy Slim (R)

[GrumpyRaver]

I'd say Primal Scream's reply to the tweet the other day would make them a SR.

Elbow(SR)

Where does that come from?

[Supernintendo Chalmers]

Chemical Brothers (DJ set) - SR

Love Regenerator - SR

Both strongly rumoured for Pangea

[Gnomicide]

Argh! Sorry @Neil, I didn't spot your post at the top of the page.

SR, surely? Norman is near certain to be there in some capacity and was meant to be on the Other so I'd be stunned if he's not doing something significant.

Therein lies the mirth. 

Norm’s as TBC as anyone on that list.

Wet Leg have said they are playing to someone at the Manchester gig.

Beans should be TBC as always plays

[Hugh Jass]

Confidence Man liked my tweet suggesting a few different places for them… worth an SR at least?

[TheDayman]

Given their seismic rise in popularity over the last few years - and the glasto shaped hole in their tour - I think Bicep are worthy of a rumour

Yeah, in this

[Chef]

Noel Gallagher mentioned in an interview last year he would only do live shows this year if someone special like Glastonbury or Teenage Cancer Trust asked him to. He then announced a handful of outdoor shows with the last one in Bristol a couple of days before Glastonbury weekend. 

Add that to the fact he was on the 2020 poster he has to be SR if not TBC?

I could say I hope I'm playing Glastonbury, but that wouldn't be a self confirm.  SR all over.

Yeah I think Noel's legitimately a SR.

Their official account commented somewhere that they'll be at Glastonbury with bells on so has to be a TBC. Doesn't come much more self confirmed than that!

[nikkic]

Don't Macca and Kendrick fall into the SR category and not TBC?

Always thought TBC was for acts who have self confirmed, without there being an official confirmation from the festival?

I thought Neil had said he would go TBC if the rumours page was in place but I think you are right.

That's just a #GSH at this point though, I think they'll be there but nothing to say they are rumoured.

TBC's are also for acts Neil has had info that they are playing but haven't been officially confirmed yet.

Once an act gets to TBC it's very rare they don't play.
