Where have you seen this? Not that I'll be going but Pixies is great support, such a shame they will not get appreciated by a KOL crowd.

Metro e-edition.

At least they're doing a full tour this year and it's not like people have to go to that to see them.

Supporting bill might turn out pretty good. Kings of Leon oddly do get quite a lot of decent acts as supports and BST are more than competent of providing a cool undercard. Obviously wouldn't be into buying it but I could be swayed if this one lands in the bargain bin - fat chance tho.

I'd guess £65ish face value, I think that's what Green Day was 

[Dom Wall]

Nathanial Rateliff and the Night Sweats also playing according to KoL.

UK festival exclusive too which is great as it means they won't be at any of the ones i'll be going too

Don't think they would've been at Standon Calling or Red Rooster anyway, but at least you can be sure now.

Did you manage to get one?

Think a Bieber date the weekend before Glasgow Green would tempt me down tbh

[Gozpot]

Green Day playing at Glasgow Bellahouston Park 4th July, with Rancid as a special guest, adds more weight to the fact that Rancid will be supporting them at BST.

Why not announce though if it is? Surely the more sales the better and it's the only place in England for a Rancid show if so.

They're not gonna lose out on ticket sales whether they announce it now or not. I'm sure they know what they're doing. There's a reason why UK festivals stagger their announcements.

Phil Collins is already playing 

[Nicklord]

David Gilmour is much more than dad rock

Why don't R&L announce everyone now?

Theres no need to, they'll shift the same amount tickets if they had been announced with Green Day or if they got announced in 3 months time.

Yep, requested one far enough back that I can't make out his miming.

[Rose-Colored Boy]

Bieber confirmed. Martin Garrix, Tove Lo and Anne-Marie supporting

[NickisGinger]

Tbh, I thought the GA price would be extortionate for bieber.

That's going to sell easily!

I hear Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers are lined up for one of the dates.

Although their US dates don't really line up with the Hyde Park dates. I wonder if they are BBC Radio 2 headliners?

Lines up more with Glastonbury than BST so if it is a Hyde Park gig, then either Radio 2 or a Hard Rock Calling revival in August seems likely. 

Actually, a HRC revival would be ace - and August would be better for me to take my folks too.
