Who's Touring Around Glastonbury 2017?

[TomViolence]

Eventim just sent me an email about Wireless and it says The Weeknd is a UK festival exclusive.

Ah well. Our list of Other headliners/Pyramid subs is dwindling down day by day.

Have you misread it by any chance? It doesn't say that in the press release.

Does however claim Nas, Tiller, Yachty, Rae Sremmurd and Thugger. Hopefully that means Noname is playing other events as well.

My thoughts too. Don't think any of the headliners are billed as UK exclusives. Shame about Nas though

[The Nal]

Just got killer seats for Brian Wilson. Hopefully we'll get "The Beach Boys" at the farm. Will be an interesting comparison.

I googled it and Tom's right, it does list The Weeknd as an exclusive in the event info here

Rag N Bone man is playing......literally every festival in 2017. Don't think I've ever seen someone do so many in one year. Burn out imminent.

Got to get the money whilst people remember who he is 

Come 2020 it'll be Rag N who?

Gotta strike while the iron's hot. He'll be forgotten about this time next year.

Strange that Wireless aren't making a big thing about it if it's true though.

Aye, I've lost track of who is even a realistic option now. Looking bleak

2020? You're being very generous.

I see Rag N Bone man following the exact same path as Tom Odell.

[Badlands]

I'd love a bit of Channo as he passed me by last time he played.

Went to see De La Soul last night. I thought had been billed as a show supporting their new album (the tour advert included the album cover) ended up with them not actually playing a single track from it. They reckon their coming back later in the year with a full band to play it. 3 years isn't too long a break. New album is a belter as well.

Yeah the press release is verbatim that but without the "in another UK Festival Exclusive" bit - and the press release does read 'final' in its title so maybe there was a previous iteration and Eventim have messed it up? Don't know what it means by 'another' anyway as that's the start of the article innit?  Think there's grounds to think he's still in the running - definitely so if they initially put out that he was exclusive and then walked it back.

June & July looks like a good 6 weeks this year!!

Just saw you're off to Ibiza, when you going?

I did some pretty bad planning this year - I'm in Ibiza from 7th-14th June, back for a few days then off to Glasto.

July is going to be QUITE the comedown.

So sub/Other headliner wise, who are we left with? JUSTICE, The xx, BBK, Lady Gaga, Kaiser Chiefs....?

Are Alt-j ruled out?

Nope, just forgot about them (easily done tbf) 

[DownboundTrain52]

Tony Bennett just confirmed for a Dublin show on the Sunday night. I'm thinking mid-afternoon on the Pyramid Saturday - doubly so if Gaga turns out to be there that day too.

Elbow could still do the friday couldnt they?

Not that I'm trying to depress anyone further

[SwedgeAntilles]

So I'm now thinking

Other:

Justice/BBK/Alt J

Pyramid Sub:

The xx/Kaiser Chiefs/Lady Gaga

I've just clashed Radiohead and Justice. I've become the very thing I despise.

Given that - xx aside - those would never have been predicted for their slots before we heard something about it, I don't think we're in a position to round up who the acts 'left' are.

In that case I'm throwing Bon Iver and The National back in the mix.
