any info about tunng playing i missed them on their last tour. iwould recomend the miserable rich to anyone

[TG24]

Saw Imagined Village (briefly) at last years Cambridge Folk Fest - and was distinctly unimpressed, but it's not my kind of folk so hey.

Give me someone like Lunasa, Flook or Lau any day!

[TG24]

come to think of it, what about electro folk (?) like James Yuill or Andrew Bird? Either of those guys played before?

[dtburke]

Jeffrey Lewis and Tunng would be brilliant

Check out Stornoway and the Travelling Band.

I love Jeffrey Lewis. Basically, he's the single artist I'd like to see most at Glastonbury this year. He;s playing lattitude, so who knows...?

[daveinafield]

gr8 if it comes off :-)

next year...40th annniversary of the fest, let's see Melanie back!!! she was there in '71 and will be performing in London in May this year.

+ let's see Imagined Village at glasto.

Let us not forget The Men They Couldn't Hang are celebrating their 25th anniversary this year. I know they have played 2 years in a row but once more wouldn't hurt surely?

[marktea]

Well I'm really looking forward to seeing Fleet Foxes.

Great live apparently and a very interesting addition to the lineup.

[Bort]

Really hope the Emmy the Great rumors are true.

[jollynolly]

First love is a fantastic album

[Bort]

Yes, it is.

[Guest Flip]

melanie would be very cool as would Imagined Village and anything with lots of fiddles

[jollynolly]

Peatbog Faeries will be there bring on the folk rave.

Sunday I think, last time it was Avalon at the same time as Sir Paul, they were wonderful

[timespeedsup]

Couldn't work out from last night if Tunng are playing, but they were mammoth & will be well up for seeing them if they do come again

Of course, maybe the tour with Tinariwen could have a slot itself at Glasto. Seemed to be nearly all of both bands on stage, & they take turns to play eahc other's songs with the '2nd' band noodling nicely over the top. Worked very well.

Show of Hands please and Seth Lakeman.

There's a great lineup this year at the Trowbridge Pump. Lovely festival and highly recommended.

[Wm.!]

I'd love for Beirut to play ...

[beergut100]

Seize the Day will play on about 50 different stages. As I've mentioned elsewhere, I'd really like to see Leon Rosselson. And Robb Johnson. Also, Chumbawamba were brilliant in 2007.

[daveinafield]

think i last saw Chumbawamba in 99 or was it 00 in a tent in greenpeace field
