Predict the final TBAs

[theglastokid]

All this talk of underwhelming TBA's, don't forget one of them was George Ezra last year so Hozier fits in with that blandness also.

How is Hozier going to fill more than one arena?!

Weirdly, the year he played El Pointo he got an enormous crowd.

The negativity towards Hozier seems weird. I remember seeing him play John Peel in 2014, he had a cracking voice and seemed like a really nice guy.

Agree that it seems strange if he is a TBA rather than just announcing him, but its really not hard to understand why he has a large appeal. Even if you ignore everything else, the subject matter of Take Me To Church was (and still is) powerful enough to get people on board.

Is the general consensus that Temple TBA on Sat night is Fred again.. B2B with Four Tet? 

Not a massive Fred again.. fan, but that would be wild if true!  If incredibly busy after Fat Boy Slim on Park!

Hozier's massive tour today alongside his big outdoor show in the summer means a TBA slot makes a lot of sense

Anyone who goes to Fatboy won't get into Temple for that midnight TBA.

Yeah I agree, his debut album has some excellent songs on - Cherry Wine wouldn't be written by any other of the 'bland' artists he's been thrown about with.

I sense it's part and parcel of eFests bizarrely cynical mindset.

Michael Kiwanuka is in Frome at the moment apparently. Normally a spot where Glasto performers hangout

May have been mentioned already but I reck the Saturday night TBA on Greenpeace is Seth Troxler given hes on the Greenpeace poster but not on the set times. Hes a pretty big name for the rave tree is my thinking!

Troxler is now on the official glasto lineup page for the green peace TBA Saturday 1015pm

Ezra was far bigger than his slot though. Probably would've subbed / 3rd down Pyramid?

That TBA is the right slot for Hozier if announced, same as Pretenders.

Was thinking more in terms of him having loads of tickets to sell a week before the festival. Fair to say I'm not a fan of either!

[Euphoricape]

Any rumours for the Truth stage TBA ..?

Yeah, I'm not sure I get it either. He seems almost a like for like to Ezra as a TBA. I don't know much about tours and if he's doing arenas or whatever, but he's got 26 million monthly listeners on Spotify compared to Ezra's 18m. I know it's not an exact science, but still, it's impressive numbers.

Not that I'll be there myself, mind you.

Hold up….just clicked on my TBA at greenpeace on Sunday and it’s now saying Annie Mac? No more Norman cook!?

Which? Sat is now Troxler and Sun is still TBA?

I've seen that on a few TBAs. Think it should still be FBS.

[MEGATRONICMEATWAGON]

Does anyone have any idea of the TBA on Levels, Friday night?

It's in the middle of the Hot Chip set, but it'd be great to have a look-see if I can.

Hopefully. Struggling to choose between him and Yusuf

FBS is playing a few times and is likely to play every Glasto until he's too old to. Yusuf if you've got no other way of seeing him and he's a must see?

Yusuf is in the “would love list” the same as Fatboy. However how often has he done a daytime set. I know the logic and agree on paper Yusuf should win hands down…but we missed him last year.

Pretty sure Elbow were one a few years back to add to the recurring theme of bland TBAs

[JP1994]

Is there any info on who the 2 TBA slots on BBC Introducing could be?

There’s also a TBA slot on the Truth Stage at 1:30am Saturday night. Thinking this is probably likely to be an additional slot from someone who’s playing a on the main bill Saturday or Sunday?
