[JamieKThomas]

Can anybody recollect if any grime/hip hop artists have self confirmed for this year?

First post, been lurking for a while...

Snapchatted Four Tet asking if he was playing and he replied by nodding (quite hard to screenshot the motion but he was, and there was no music so it was a genuine nod)

The nod didn't really give away whether it would be a live set or dj but I imagine djing

think it's a given he'll be there most years in some form, but this is good! hopefully i'll be able to catch him this year. can't remember exactly where he played last year but you couldn't hear a fucking thing so gave up pretty early. i enjoyed his 12pm DJ set in 2014 a lot

This is more a not self confirmed.  An eagle eyed eFestivals member tweeted my hubby's band page a while back as they had been listed on the rumours page as self confirmed (Soulville Express, based in Glastonbury).  It was news to him as no one had been in touch with the band and they hadn't self confirmed.  After much digging around, he can't find out where the rumour started - any ideas Neil?  Much as they'd absolutely love it to be true, that TBC for Friday seems just a pipe dream for them  .  Unless someone knows something even the band doesn't!

Hi, that was a spot of mine, posted in this thread. It comes from this website, which still has them playing the festival on the Friday: http://joleany.com/gigs/somerset/street/soulville-express-37. No idea where they got their info, of course.

thanks BSR - I was having trouble trying to find where I'd taken it from.

Anyway, with @Glastorose having confirmed it's not happening, I'll remove it.

Thanks both.  We couldn't find out where that website got it from either.  It was all very exciting for a few weeks though.  Now he'll just have to stick to his normal job at the festival.

SG Lewis basically self confirmed to me when I asked him if he was playing. One of my favourites at the moment so I'm well happy.

Fair enough, just posting what I read

Someone on here was at a gig in Manchester where they self confirmed live on stage

It seems that way but certain media reports have picked up on it. I'd love it to be true and to confirm now for 17 seems strange.

Oh good - will look forward to them in the sun!

[FakeEmpire]

I thought Paul & Jacqui would be Pyramid.  Other seems a strange choice for them.  I wonder if they'll do the Blondie slot?

Yes! brilliant news! 

[wozwebs]

Park Stage would be better suited?

Great, didn't see them last time in acoustic but have seen them several times on tour, last time 2 weeks ago. Other wouldn't be great... Hopefully park or west holts

[justperfect]

Park sub would be a good slot for them. 

Watched them twice in 2014 and even bumped into paul after he gave a talk in the green peace feild.

Nice bloke

[Yokel Again]

Pyramid early would be good - Other and JP would be an odd choice though

[fightoffyour]

Thought they had early Pyramid written all over them
