Don't think I have done one of these for Glasto before, so don't go in too hard - based it from some predictions in here, a few rumours floating in other threads and own personal taste. Not sure though if this is too strong, too heavy on certain genres, or placings completely off, but hey ho! Also no idea on the 'Legend' act, so just went with the safe option of Spice Girls.

Friday:

PY: Arctic Monkeys // Sam Smith / Royal Blood / RAYE / Wet Leg / Cat Burns

OS: Wizkid // Halsey / Mabel / Denzel Curry / Maggie Rogers / Suede (Special guest opener)

WH: Loyle Carner // Jungle / Maisie Peters / Shame

JP: Hot Chip // The Wombats / Alvvays / Everything Everything

PA: PJ Harvey // boygenius / Marcus Mumford / Muna

Saturday:

PY: Guns N’ Roses // Lizzo / Lewis Capaldi / Bastille / Paloma Faith / The Specials

JP: slowthai // King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard / Caroline Polachek / WILLOW

PA: London Grammar // Clairo / Angel Olsen / Snail Mail

ARCADIA: The Chemical Brothers (DJ Set) // Amelie Lens / Honey Dijon

slight formatting note also, your 'the' acts are in the wrong place - they should just be mixed in based off second word

doubt clairo would be back in such a big slot too, no new album and her JP like 3pm set was empty

looks like i'm joining the chair gang on the sunday wow

Was thinking the other day that Overmono subbing Orbital on the Park could work well.

re Deftones, likelihood of them being on the farm? This would be absolute all timer for me and as much as missing Sade would be annoying i'd have to go Deftones.

They have been rumoured for Outbreak the same weekend - I believe this is based on Outbreak following Chino on IG, which could just as easily mean Crosses are playing (or neither)

Is there really a chance of Smashing Pumpkins..? Surely they would be Pyramid if so. 

Subbed Other in 2013 and I’d say their stock has dropped since then, even with their ‘reunion’ lineup. No clue if they’re at all likely - probably not - but I don’t think they’d be getting a Pyramid slot, and most likely either mid/high Other or possibly even something like headlining John Peel.

I'd had assumed the top bills for Outbreak had been announced and there was no more to come. I won't get my hopes up but would love for Deftones to be there. Tbh, lots on that Outbreak lineup that would be cracking.

I figured there's one more top-line artist to be added, based on the poster? It's pretty stacked already tbf.

Less than a zero percent chance Deftones are playing a festival headlined by Death Grips. Even Crosses would be too big a get I think.

As for the farm I can't see it either, but honestly you should see them indoors if possible, their outdoor shows last year had VERY mixed reviews

Looking more and more likely that our Pyramid subs and OS headliners are probably gonna be:

QOTSA, Lizzo, Pulp

Sam Smith, Fred Again, The Prodigy

Suppose there’s always a chance they just haven’t rebooked QOTSA, but given their proximity at the time it seems likely, especially with their mates headlining the Friday night.

Isn't the lad Wizkid in the mix?

Supposedly, but I just don’t buy it myself. Not sure which OS headliner I’d remove to make way for him though if it is the case - we’ve had info Prodigy are there so OS headliner is their natural place, had info Sam is doing it also, and then Fred Again… so I guess the latter would have to be on Holts instead, which is seeming less likely as time goes on.

And have Sam sub the Pyramid? I believe the info we had on them was specifically for OS headliner. Things might’ve changed obviously, but for now I’m sticking with them topping Other (and also, I really want QOTSA so gonna run with them being there until the first poster drop).

Not sure I see Overmono headlining Park, their trajectory is on the up but I think that'll really be determined by how well the upcoming record does. I'd likely be there for that one unless I'm dragged to AM though. 

Not a fan of sticking Prodigy and Orbital up against each other either, shift one to the Sunday.

But very much all on board with the Doobie Brothers!..hopefully we get something soon, but the posters not too long away now.

Like the idea of Two Door closing the park stage.

No way are Overmono being put against Fred Again, nor Orbital v Prodigy. Doubt Prodigy and GNR will clash either

The act choices are good just day choices are strange

The sunday options against Elton John would do nothing to try and sort the crowd out

    • A mixed first day for us. First of all, we were honestly quite shocked that there was no security check at all at the VIP entrance around 7:30 PM. No bag check, nothing. I’ve attended Primavera many times over the years and this felt surprisingly lax for an event of this size. Did anyone else experience the same?   Another disappointment was the communication regarding the weather situation. Primavera has some of the best sound systems and speaker setups in the festival world, yet somehow they were not able to make a single clear announcement explaining what was happening. Instead, people were expected to read tiny messages on screens in Mordor while thousands were left wondering what was going on. A simple and direct audio announcement would have gone a long way.   On a lighter note, this guy absolutely made my day. Sitting right in front of the Estrella Damm terrace, wearing nothing but a long-sleeve shirt, jeans and a pair of Converse All Stars, he remained completely unbothered by the rain. While everyone else was looking for shelter, he sat there wearing sunglasses, calmly watching the crowd as if he was watching a movie.   Absolute main character energy!
    • I think my party got pretty lucky last night, at least compared to some of the horror stories over on Reddit. I was very impressed with Father John Misty in particular.   Perhaps my view would be different if I were a big Massive Attack fan or whatever, but right now my feeling is that if it's not safe for the shows to go ahead... then it's not safe for the shows to go ahead. I'd much rather they were cautious than roll the dice when it comes to something like that.    Here's hoping everyone has a better day today. 
    • It was awful during Father John Misty and I was close to the front. People just shouting and laughing their f-ing heads off about nothing in particular and being louder than the bloody stage.
    • Other things I noted yesterday, away from the obvious…   Positives: - an extra water point towards the back left of the main stages has appeared, which I believe is new for this year (and was much needed) - handing out free ponchos was a good touch  - caroline were fantastic. I’d never been in the Auditori Rockdelux before, it’s a wonderful venue and a great venue if you fancy a more chilled out environment  Negatives: - the talkers. I know it’s always bad here (and most festivals nowadays) but f**k me people wouldn’t shut up yesterday. I wonder if it was partly as a result of people being at artists they had little interest in (due to rain limiting their options), although it wasn’t great during blood orange. We’ll be making an effort to get a spot nearer the front for anyone we particularly care about over the weekend  - not enough staff around (and the ones that are there are largely useless). Most other festivals have them everywhere and are happy to help
