This thread is beginning to fucking eat itself.

Just to let you know, Mum is recovering well in hospital. Phew! Now then. Out of curiosity I posted on the FB Glasto forum, how would you lot react if Taylor Swift was the headliner. I expected a stream of abuse judging by the Kanye comments. Instead there is a generally positive response from men and women which really surprised me. Quite a few peeps saying she would be great, etc. Just saying like

Good news. All the best Martin.

Is that because you know who is 3rd down Saturday/know where ELO will play/know ELO definitely aren't playing? Really want them to be there.

I don't know if ELO will be there or not. But do know they won't be in that spot

Florence is at Glastonbury this year.

No idea where she's positioned whether it be sub or headline, but she is definitely there.

I remember Emily Eavis saying that Flo definitely wasn't headlining, at the same time that she said that Coldplay weren't. Sub sounds likely

Who is 3rd down on saturday?

It's been doing that since it started. Best thread on here! Having said that, it is time for the reveal now. Not sure it's coming anytime soon though.

[shoptildrop]

Yeah that's the one I made in the prediction thread.

It's a good prediction and do hope good chunk of that is right

[shoptildrop]

It should be the KLF, just so Kanye can see what controversial really looks like.

I bet they are really kicking themselves these days burning that 1M in order to be controversial lol

[Diva Sam]

The longer it is taking to announce it the less likely it is for p-rinse to say yes I reckon. Just like last year and the every other bloody year.

Yeah, feels really similar to last year.

I'll say once the line up poster is out (the one which doesn't specify the order). As I don't believe I should really say until the act has at least been announced.

Eight months trying to find a decent paid job as a journalist, and the Guardian are employing people like that as columnists.

[GlastoSimon]

That 'article' is fantastic

Because The Smiths were so warmly welcomed to Glastonbury in 1984, man. It wasn't like it is with Kanye now, no way.

[Untz]

For those who are not regular readers, the Modern Tribes column is satirical. Surely the last two paragraphs really give it away?

They did one on Mansion Tax protestors a while back that had everyone in the comments section going mad. Great fun.

You linked to a particular comment just so you know.

Not somebody already on the listings then?

Writes an article slamming commercialism within the festival, books a tipi for nearly a thousand odd quid.

[Gnomicide]

I know sarcasm is hard to get across in print but that's clearly taking the piss.
