Just done a google search and it seems the final names for 2015 came on 26th March. They usually follow the same pattern don't they? So I'll hold out until then before making a final decision.

Hang in there Al. Were the roses your main reason for your early booking? 

Haven't been to the new site but I'm sure you'd have a great time and pretty sure there will be enough on each day to keep you interested by the time we have the full line up.

In recent years, this hasn't always been the case.

The only reason I know the names in the Slam Tent is because it's the same names that constantly do it.

Anyone who enjoys that place and thinks the T lineup is repetitive needs their heads checked.

Aye, I jumped the gun after missing out on Glastonbury tickets them Roses announcing. Its gonna take an increasingly unlikely New Order addition and a few other good lower down names to convince me.

I still don't see how Tiesto does King Tuts when his competition on R1 is LCD Soundsystem, who i don't see getting a big crowd at T. Seems crazy, but the only other theory I can think of is he's subbing Calvin or RHCP and that would be light outside.

[Warren Cuschieri]

Hey guys, this is the first time I'm going to T as always went to Glastonbury instead, but felt like a change this year.. just seen the slam tent line up which looks class. Does ot close early ? Or stay longer than the main stage? As there are bands which i would like to see but definately dont want to miss the slam tent acts.. in any case, is there a stage which stays open late?? Thanks

[Zooropa]

Interestingly enough, New Order are headlining Electric Picnic.

Bit off topic folks, would you be willing to fill in this wee survey for a uni project I'm doing? It'll take less than 5 minutes to do, and would be massively helpful for me.

Cheers!

Wouldn't usually do these but you are a regular poster, so done.

Oh mayn I'd love to see Death in Vegas! They played the Slam? Wow. I've been in for a look. Wasn't my thing but there was a great German sausage stall outside with nae queue.

[Alan_C]

If New Order do play, where do they fit in on Sunday if it is Tiesto headlining KT? 

Main - RHCP, New Order, Chase & Status

R1 - LCD, Major Lazor (confirmed)

KT - Tiesto, Faithless?

Would that work? Seems mad placing Faithless in there, but even more mad putting Tiesto in there.

Everything would've made perfect sense had Geoff not said Major Lazer was subbing LCD.. 

Main - RHCP, Chase & Status, Faithless
R1 - Tiesto, Major Lazer
KT - LCD, New Order

Sure people would've been really happy with that.

[Comfy Bean]

Apologies if this has already been mentioned but do we know that Disclosure are subbing the roses ?

I don't think it's been announced but Alesso is headlining the Radio 1 stage on Friday so there's not really anywhere else for Disclosure to play.

[Alan_C]

Disclosure will probably be opening up King Tuts judging by some of the weird potential positions.

Slam line up announced and not surprisingly I haven't a clue who any of them are.  Dunno how folks can spend entire weekend in that tent but each to their own 

Daniel Avery announced for the Picnic too, worth checking out his Drone Logic album is something else  https://youtu.be/eS0CO-yPmO4

What do you think are weird positions so far? I thought it all seemed alright baring Tiesto potentially heading KTs

[Matt42]

Bit late to the party but the slam tent lineup is massive
