Glastonbury Line up

[Soton Seagull]

Full line up was announced at 10pm tonight on the official site.

Anyone else entirely underwhelmed by the line up?

Should've not bothered buying a ticket and gone to watch Sussex Australia instead!

I'm sure it'll still be a fun weekend, just might have to take my MP3 player!

Not that I am going this year but I was decidedly underwhelmed. Too many 'ironic' acts.

Yeah, Neil Young and Bruce Springsteen are well ironic...

Headliners aside (possibly apart from Blur!).

 

[Turkey]

If I was going I'd be looking forward to Dizzee Rascal, Pendulum and Prodigy.

 

[Juan Albion]

Bap Kenedy.

He once told me he loved me. I was deeply moved.

 

[CHAPPERS]

It doesn't look great this year, to be honest. De La Soul will be a good show on Jazz World and the dance stages look decent as per. Not the best line up but then who goes to Glastonbury for the line up?

 

[The Uninvited Guest]

Quo, Young, Blur, The Hoodoo Gurus, Tom Jones, Crosby, Stills and Nash plus special guest (Young), Spinal Tap, Madness, The Specials, Doves, Ray Davies, Steel Pulse, Seth Lakeman, The Blockheads, Robin Hitchcock plus many others. It's going to be a great weekend end and I'm going for nothing

Plenty of time to do both. It's not far in a helicopter.

true, and i'd love it to happen, but looking at last years timings CSN will play for an hour from 7.30pm..... and i would expect NY to be on at hyde park for 930pm.

[Garry Nelson's Left Foot]

Quite a poor line up this year. Still there's enough decent stuff there to get you through.

 

[Seagull Stew]

Is it a sad reflection on the current crop of contemporary music acts out there that all these "former glory" bands and artists are playing, or has Michael Eavis just lost the plot?

Of course, there are absolutely NO new or contemporary bands on at Glastonbury are there? Open your eyes and look a little further beyond the headline bands.

Can you actually name any new bands?

Not really a shock, expensive, lots of competition and don't think the line up is going to sway people into going.

 

[NF9]

Any Idea if Coldplay are their this year?

 

[Herr Tubthumper]

My understanding is that it is as good as sold out.

It was supposedly sold out months ago.

Type "sold out" and Glastonbury into Google.
