Who's Playing Where ?

Where do we put Candi Staton and Rudimental? Would love a 1-2 of life affirming dance-y bangers.

Candi Staton early-ish Pyramid.

Rudimental are a tough one as they could easily play a few of the main stages… mid Pyramid, mid/high Other or, I’m fearing, headlining West Holts.

If Hot Chip are headlining Woodsies (surely if they're on there, they headline...?) that'll be three headline sets on three different mainstages in 8 years! (WH, Park, Woodsies)

What's the 'record' for a band/artist headlining the most of the five main stages?

I was thinking about this earlier. 

They’ve subbed The Other too, so only The Pyramid to tick off to have played all 5 main stages.

Where do we think Manics will play? I’ve seen a few line up guesses putting them as headlining Park on Friday, but do we have anything concrete on this (day or stage)?

Nah literally no info on them other than them being lined up to headline the Park in ‘20, but tbh that might not mean much as Lana is coming back in a different place than she was due that year and the same for some other acts last/this year. Just a best guess at this point.

I hope they're not headlining the Park because (a) they're really not a Park act, for me (!) and (b) I really need some more positive headliner news! 

I wondered if Phoenix might be one of the park headliners...

I’m hoping Friday night Park headline comes to pass, as I don’t have a known headliner on the Friday yet, and they’d fit the bill nicely. I’ve said as much in the Headliner thread, but thought I’d put it in here, because the headliner thread has become like the land of Mordor. Where the shadows lie, full of fire, ash and dust.

One does not simply walk into the headliner thread. Its black gates are guarded by more than just orcs. There is evil there that does not sleep, and the Great Eye is ever watchful. It is a barren wasteland, riddled with fire and ash and dust, the very air you breathe is a poisonous fume. Not with ten thousand men could you do this. It is folly.

I’m not being silly but are Pulp too big to headline the Park?

Not being silly at all (it’s  a shame posters are feeling the need to be defensive around genuine curiosity) but I’d say yes. A secret set perhaps, against something big elsewhere, but as an announced act, I’d expect them to be on a bigger stage, but who knows. Fingers crossed.

The manics could headline the field they're tarmaccing over.

Where’s the information coming from about QOTSA headlining Other at the same time as Elton? I’m seeing it on here and on twitter.

horrendous clash if true

i think it was published on some articles that they were playing despite them not being on the poster from what i've heard others say

I’m sure it was the Guardian, it was quickly removed and amended!

Stumped on how to figure this one out.

My thinking would be an act who did one of the big 2 years ago and has slipped down

foals have subbed 3 stages!

I don't think anyone is beating 3

--

Bit of research. Primal Scream have done 3 as well but did pyramid and other so a more impressive 3. I can't figure any others who have done 3.

Might be a few more if you count front men doing it with bands / solo. Damon, Jarvis, both gallaghers all turned up nothing.

I was using https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glastonbury_Festival_line-ups and using the search function to check where each artist had played

    • Another note, if I didn't mention the food in the arena for main stage is right at the back. Bands wise they do very well for but as a festival so far they pros are outweighed quite heavily currently for me.
    • On another note for RIP as an event, there is some good things but there are so many things people going to UK festivals would hate and how far behind they are.  Consistent network and water, beer and pretzel like food is brought around to buy in the crowds. Topping up on the wristband is good. The camping and food arrangement is not good, you really need cooking kit. Water points inside the arena are bonkers, water points in camping are a faff unless you are close enough in general camp. Merch stands are crazy. You MASSIVELY need to think about your lidl shop for camping and try and do it so you've one stop. It's definitely worth it getting to a camping shop here, picking up a rolley between your mates and stacking it for the walk back....lidl is cheap though, not hard getting in but Thursday queues getting in and into the camping is mad. You have to register first for a wristband as well leaving any bigger bags behind so pull to a side if only two and do it separately. I was joining a WhatsApp group for solo camp so went with the flow but I've learnt. Had it been me or just two my tent would have been down much quicker.  Big final note, I got a fresh and black 3 man from decathlon before coming and put in bigger suitcase with my airbed and sleeping bag...do this. Take a smaller option for your clothes. If you go to Munich first, book your train to Nuremberg as far in advance as you can....very important!....it hikes crazy. Probably bettee overall for baggage sizes to do BA both ways but you do then need to go back to Munich after too. Use the B&B hotel hbf the night before....its very nice, comfortable, cheap and within 10 minutes of the station which also serves as a transport stop 15 minutes from the registration.  Get up literally like 5am with everything back the night before, shower and go. Transport is free anyway for festival ticket holders during the duration.  Would I just choose to travel in each day and back to a hotel?, on the basis of sleep and getting accommodation cheap enough for 3 nights i might just do especially if I picked the ticket up early enough. It doesn't feel like a festival in a normal sense....unless you are in general yoi have to exit on the paths outside the camping to walk down and in which also applies for getting water so have a stock up. Toilets are in the camping.
    • Yup and they aren't cheap   Glastonbury is different though, it's a place that will pack out for rarities they don't usually see. Download strictly speaking shouldn't be the strangest place for Avril to pop up of she had been a touring artist of longer times over the years.   Avril and GC would get the same billing for me and GC are selling arenas out quicker than Avril sold Ally Pally. Bearing in mind she'd pnly done soem Brixton dates before.
    • Avril gets above GC on rarity (see Cypress Hill this year). She drew in something like 70,000 at Glastonbury, so much so that they had to close the field off. I’d wager that she would get the biggest crowd of the entire weekend if she was to play DL.
