apart from 1998.

I blame my wife for not remembering that fact.

[Matt - Ed Banger Records]

Prodigy touring in May as well.

[grayfitz]

Couple dates in Europe right after Glasto for St Vincent

07-02 Roskilde, Denmark - Roskilde Festival
07-04 Gdynia, Poland - Open’er Music Festival

[Tuna]

As much as I'd love St Vincent back I'm not holding out much hope. Reckon a high slot at Latitude or something is more likely.

[FuzzyDunlop]

NOFX... have they been mentioned?

They do have a convenient hole in their touring plans.

06/27/15 O2 Academy Birmingham , UK

06/30/15 O2 Academy Newcastle , UK

07/03/15 O2 Academy Leeds, UK

07/04/15 O2 Brixton Academy London, UK

I've caught them at Leeds on a couple of occasions, always very entertaining.

YES!! Would love that. Would relive my youth...

Slash seems to be quite a few festivals in the run up to the festival:

Rock am Ring

Download

Hellfest

Graspop Metal Meeting.

I think he'd be awesome on the Other Stage Subbing. He was great on the Pyramid but i think perhaps a little more intimacy would be great.

Talking of Graspop Metal Meeting, just check the lineup :

Black Stone Cherry ?

Motörhead ?

Faith No More?

And it's the week before Glasto.

Motorhead and Faith No More are possible. Not sure why you'd think Black Stone Cherry would play to be honest.

[FloorFiller]

i really REALLY hope Faith No More are booked. it'd be so so good

Would be something to behold, Faith No More with Placebo subbing

[Matt42]

Really hoping the weeknd plays, can't believe he pulled out in 2013... gutting.

Can't seem to think where'd play.. west holts headline still? or has he got bigger since then?

Surprising that he's subbing coachella! Didn't think he was that big!

[Badlands]

Max Romeo is in the country in May. Just stumbled upon his show in Newcastle. Is he often in the UK?

[FloorFiller]

yeah surprised by him subbing Coachella. didn't think he was that big either, although i guess his first Coachella performance was kind of a big deal so maybe he's looked at highly there

not sure where i'd place him either, but West Holts headliner still seems about right i reckon. hasn't really gotten any bigger or done anything else to put him any higher here in the UK. wouldn't be as excited about him playing as i was in 2013 as his album was kind of shit and so were his recent singles - would depend who he's up against

Must have a new album out soon then? If he does I can see Glasto rebooking him..

nothing's been mentioned about an album - just a few one off singles and a song for the Fifty Shades Of Grey soundtrack. all a bit shit. guessing an album's in the works but god knows if it'll be released this year. regardless, if he's on the festival circuit they should definitely try and re-book him. never found out why he disappeared from the 2013 lineup

If he dropped off on bad terms do you reckon it's likely they'l rebook?

[Gucci Piggy]

Well... No... Obviously...?

yep, every other year if not every year.

He was in the UK in 2013, and played both WOMAD and Boomtown (and possibly other places too).

It was dead funny at Boomtown, you should have seen the crowds running towards the stage when they heard Chase The Devil, who I'm guessing thought Prodigy had suddenly appearred.

(that might seem harsh, but when so many of the Boomtown crowd didn't even know bob marley songs I can't believe they knew of Max).

Cheers, he's passed me by on other visits to the country.

Black Stone Cherry seems to have a more cross over vibe IMO.

Just a suggestion of a band who'd suit nicely at Glasto, whilst being on the heavier side of things.

[5co77ie]

Vintage Trouble, Gurrumul, Aaron Neville, Taj Mahal are all cosnfirmed for New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival

[Mezhyp1]

Black Rebel Motocycle Club playing INmusic in Croatia the week of glastonbury, would be brilliant to see them back

They've been in Europe around Glastonbury the last couple of years I think but hopefully they'll play this year.

[bocumaroy]

Sarah Neufeld would be a nice addition. She's touring in America with St Vincent at the end of May and beginning of June.
