Unable to go but the line up looks amazing as usual! Especially the Friday.

The XX are surprsingly high and I didn't expect the Red Hot Chili Peppers to headline.

Does the no announcement of Daft Punk and Rolling Stones make them both more unlikely for Glastonbury?

Funny to see Foals and Biffy Clyro so far down a line up as well.

Suprised nick cave and grinderman are on the bill.

[A-Rob]

So Rob Da Bank was right about Daft Punk not touring this year

So Rob Da Bank was right about Daft Punk not touring this year

he was saying the same thing as I'd said about 3 months before he did, because that was the correct info at the time it was said.

Meanwhile.....

[Createur]

..it's still correct, right?!

[eFestivals]

..it's still correct, right?!

It might not be. Things have definitely changed recently.

More when I have it.

[Createur]

Thank you Neil!

Jurassic 5

Moby

Jello Biafra

Grinderman

Japandroids

Cloud Nothings

nice...

[Frankly Mr Shankly]

I thought Grinderman had called it a day? Confused. Brilliant line up though.

Reddit seem to think Phoenix are headlining because The Stones and Daft Punk pulled out..

Phoenix are headlining because they are headlining - they're big in America!

The Rolling Stones and Daft Punk rumours only come from people hoping they will be there.

The last time Daft Punk played Coachella they only headlined a tent not the main stage (when they was at their prime) - so why would they headline the festival now

[eFestivals]

The Rolling Stones and Daft Punk rumours only come from people hoping they will be there.

to be fair, I think the Stones were genuinely in the running, given the comments Jagger made about it.

I'm not sure that's the case with Daft Punk tho. I doubt they got any different response to their enquires about DP to the response that Rob da Bank got.

[Createur]

I'm wondering what the options could be Neil is getting info about. I think the info about DP is not connected to "real" festivals.

Perhaps Live Nation with Wireless Festival. They have been incredibly quiet so far.

Can't wait for Coachella now. Two of us going for Weekend One, should be good. Not overly impressed with the headliners but the undercard is incredible.

[Mackem]

Anyone got any tips on tomorrow's sale? I've registered an account - was just wondering if there was anything thta might slow down international buyers or whether there was anything about that website that might slow down someone who wan't used to it?

[Mackem]

Is anyone else buying tickets today? As far as I can see all camping for Weekend 1 has sold out in the advance sale?!

Coachella weekend one - sold out

[Mackem]

Useless f*cking site. Didn't even work on Safari for quite a while. Made See on Glasto-day look like a well-drilled machine. I've given up on both days.

[beards]

How far in advance would you recommend planning this? I've decided I want to go next summer, and spend a week in LA afterwards or something. Any advice anyone could give me would be ideal!
