You forgot poor old Frightened Rabbit!

Excellent!

looking good so far. Less than half of the full band schedule announced so plenty to go as well. What do you reckon we've got? 1 Garden Stage headliner (Jen Lekman?) and 1 sub-headliner on the Woods (Frightened Rabbit)?

Bo Ningen are an amazing live band by the way, glad they've got them back for a second year. Shove them on as a big top headliner.

I reckon Jens should be fourth/third from top Woods stage, or second from top garden. Not clashing with the other headliners!

[ljsawyer]

Jens Lekman on the Garden Stage followed by B&S on the Woods would be a pretty sweet way to end the festival.

i can already safely predict some clash hell.

Having listened to every band in this announcement I am very happy with the way this line up is shaping up.

How great are Golden Fable and Heartless Bastards?

And I'd forgotten how great Jen Lekman is, despite loving him at ATP about five years ago.

Bring.It. On.

Having not heard a note by most of them I am very happy too!

Probably for the 1st time since my first EOTR I am sold on the headliners alone. Never seen B & S, thought Sigur Ros were magnificent at Latitude and have been dreaming about seeing that David Byrne/St Vincent show. Joyous stuff.
