I know nine years have passed but I'd be surprised if they had Doves for a second time, particularly as I don't recall them going down that well.

Quite - can’t see them going back there again. Although it’d be quite funny to see the reaction

I could see them doing it as a piss take just to wind up a certain section of the regulars ?

I think they were just dreary, disengaged and not very green man to the extent that’s taken on mythical proportions in the circles of the musical snobs that visit online festival message boards! Also see efest memory of Kasabian at Glastonbury 2014 / Mumford and Sons 2013!

O shit that's amazing! Four Tet live! Broken Social Scene! 

[dentalplan]

Wow I owe those shouting Idles headlining an apology.

[lessthanwill1]

Yes yes ye Stereolab!!

[emmanuel]

Awww. I want to see Stereolab, but are there day tickets available?

The wording of the actual tweet suggests they aren't:

An amazing first announcement imo - much better than this time last year. 

Twitter announcement is saying the headliners are Four Tet and Father John Misty - so final headliner not announced! 

[Callum_96]

The email I just got through is saying that neither SVE or Idles are headlining and we're still due our third headliner!! Boy they are spoiling us this year

[Amy Lawn]

Yeah thought it was very odd to have all four headliners in the first drop. This is the best initial announcement they've done in about 5 years, hats off to them. ?

[xxialac]

Saw Four Tet at Primavera last year. A man in the distance leaning over a desk tweaking buttons. Gripping stuff.

 

[gregory]

Yes, third headliner to come  

[benali]

Wow, that's a very decent start! Booked our settlers passes. 

Pigs x 7 are going to tear the place apart.

People saying third headliner still to come. Would Four Tet not make sense as the Thursday headliner... so two more to come ? Or am I just dreaming?!

The email specifically says third headliner (and that Four Tet is a main headliner)

Where to start with Stereolab? On paper they seem like a band I'd enjoy

I've been listening to them pretty much constantly since they announced they were coming back. 

I'd say start with Emperor Tomato Ketchup and then Refried Ectoplasm (which is a compilation) first. 

Their "hit" song would probably be Cybele's Reverie. Fluorescences is also a fan favourite!  

For what it's worth my 3 favourite songs are 1. La Boob Oscillator 2. Les Yper-Sound and 3. Valley Hi! 

But there's so much to explore - from their Krautrock stlye (French Disko, John Cage Bubblegum) to more art pop/lounge music (Brakhage).

Looks really good. I enjoyed the vibe but not the lineup last year. Looks more eclectic and fun this year.

I hope Idles aren't in the tent.

It'll be interesting to see where they end up. 

I could see them as Thursday night headliners but i think that could actually be pretty dangerous considering how packed it was for PSB last year. 

[the wonderwhy]

I imagine they'll sub
