I can’t see this. Was it deleted? What is it?

It was just The Gaslight Anthem announcement, must have been deleted for some reason. Probably not as exciting as you were hoping for.

Ah, yeah. S’pose not. Thanks anyway!

She's doing the Acoustic stage apparently. That's her exclusive headline show, so given Reading is a weird place for it I presume she's going to be doing BST and Glasto.

That’s us most likely got two of our Acoustic headliners then, with The Waterboys on Saturday and Suzanne Vega on Sunday. Robert Plant and Alison Krauss would make sense for the Friday headliner since we know they’re playing that day, though I’m still a bit unsure whether they’re too big for that or not.

I think Plant/Krauss will headline the Acoustic myself.

I think they're too big for acoustic tbh. They're a headliner at Roskilde, so at Glasto I can't see them being anywhere but the Pyramid

[sinhala]

Think Plant might be on Pyramid. If Suzanne Vega does play it will be her 8th Glastonbury !

Eighth? Pah! I've been to more than her.

There's no real "classic/heritage" option anywhere on the Friday night. I don't think it's an unreasonable shout given how much of the crowd will be elsewhere that night.

Would they be another ELO? Would love to see them somewhere on the farm, but not sure where they would place. I'd imagine huge swathes of people looking blankly at their announcement.

Ferry did Holts, could they?

It's the only slot I could really see them in - and even then probably closer to an ELO vibe than a Kylie.

In reality they'll probably just not play

 

[Gilgamesh69]

Legends slot could be fun but think it's more likely they'll do a Hyde Park show instead

Think you'll go? Can imagine that being a very emotional show to attend for you though. There's a presale on Gigsandtours at 9am tomorrow, code is ROXY50

 

[CaledonianGonzo]

Assume that tickets are non-bargainous.

No I don’t think I will. It’s only a couple of weeks before his anniversary too.

For Glasgow

[jannybruck]

Yeah Roxy Music did the festival circuit in 2010 so think it's safe to say they'll be doing a bunch of stuff next year.

[CaledonianGonzo]

Ai ai ai!  I'm oot.

It would be a pity as it’d be too rammed, just because it’s Plant.

Your dad has taste. Sadly seems to imply that I’m as old as your dad as I used to be a big fan. Luckily the Manchester date is the day before I’m working a small festival so I can/will go!

Actually burst out laughing when I saw Razorlight 

Legit didn't know Razorlight were still going. Think they toured with Muse back in 2005/06, so that's absolutely a throwback. Though it seems like they're on there for night 2, given Ticketmaster only links them to that show.

I want to book tickets but I have a possible scheduling conflict with both dates and I really don't fancy my chances. After all 75,000 people were at their London Stadium 2019 gig, so somebody's gotta miss out.

Indeed I found out about their US tour - through St Vincent's Instagram and her saying she was support. Can see that given the new stuff has that kinda vibe.

[the wonderwhy]

This seems like a bargain!
