Acts Touring Around Glastonbury 2020

[SwedgeAntilles]

Don't think Alt-J have done anything of note since 2017 to justify being that high up on the bill again, have they?

Ah just saw they headlined it in 2017

Was it bad? Google suggests it was well received.

I rocked up when The Jackson's proved to be shite, got there in time for the encore of Left Hand Free and Breezeblocks so was pretty pleased, they played those well at least. Not sure its something we need again though.

God I know people are a little sad we pretty much know all 3 Pyramid headliners already + Legend, but really most of the other major spots on the line-up still feel like a big mystery.

One of Placebo or Supergrass is opening the Other Stage. The other is headlining JP.

Do you have inside info or are you just guessing?

I watched some of it then went to the glade. I wouldn't say it was necessarily bad, it was just Alt J lol. Tiny crowd though, I think they clashed with Foos?

Oh well, that's good enough for me!

I was mega disappointed last year when Placebo weren't on the lineup poster after all the rumours

I've remembered what the rumour was now, how I got it.

And I'm pretty sure from the line-up announcement that my source mis-heard what he over-heard, as there was an act on the stage Placebo were supposedly playing (which i knew, but never said) which was a soundalike name.

Ten points for anyone who can tell me who the soundalike act was.

Friday or Sunday? 

Love the idea of Levellers curating a day and saying "Get Goldie Lookin Chain on the phone."

[Guest]

Diplo? Sk Shlomo?

Edit - Neither of these are bands so can't be right. Not got a clue then.

It's gotta be Fantastic Negrito. Coz Placebo are Fantastic.

 

(If that's actually right your source needs to get some hearing aids)

there was talk of them opening the Other, so SK Shlomo could be it!

struggling to see anyone on the big stages with a similar name, and Placebo playing some tiny stage was hardly going to happen.
