Definitely could be, they were third down at the peak of their popularity in 2017 and they've fizzled out since. Elbow did third this year and their 2021 tour was massive. 

Oh I didn’t mean they couldn’t play 3rd I meant it’s all a bit samey

Ahh right, yeah possibly then although it's not a bad 1-2-3 punch for those looking for it. Rock Werchter this year was RB > Killers > RHCP in a row and it worked well.

Thats Rock Werchter though, Glastonbury is far more varied and tries actively not to just stack up bands on the main stage

Quite true, I think I was just looking at 2022's run of Haim > Noel > Macca and thinking it not unreasonable. Given AM are now a crooner Bowie tribute act you could probably get away with it!

Given we know James are playing in Bristol on the Friday night, and therefore are hopeful to be at Glasto - what kind of stage/slot do you think they might have?  I had a look at the last time they played to get an idea but they opened the Other on the Friday morning so not that good a gauge.

Loving their latest album so keen to see them.

John Peel headliner Sunday maybe ? 
I would be all over it if so , no real interest in seeing Elton .

Could see James very empty at headliner time especially against Elton John. Maybe mid other would be better? Pyramid afternoon even

Thanks all, food for thought. JP headliner would be a good shout. On balance I would probably miss Elton to see them but would be a shame as quite up for the Elton singalong. 

Likely to prefer them over Saturday headlined for sure though if any of the likely rumours are true.

Yeah James would be either earlier Pyramid or like 3rd down Other. Not headlining JP but I'd actually be tempted to see it over Elton.

    • 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. 🙂
