Just noticed that Turnstile have snuck on to the poster. Holy crap this is amazing! The hottest young rock band out there at the moment. Little nuggets keep jumping out of this poster!

I was quietly hoping they’d pop up, seem to be getting bigger and bigger off the back of Glow On, played Kimmel last night! 

Can’t place them on a particular stage/time though, maybe The Park? A late night set in Shangri-La similar to IDLES in 2019 would go down a treat too! 

[MaxPower]

A frankly incredible line up for me, given I’ll spend every night seeing electronic acts, my must sees are

Paul McCartney
Diana Ross 
The avalanches
Bonobo 
Caribou
Four tet
Little simz
Metronomy
Wet leg

wonder where four tet is going to play, park headliner one night? Or just a silver Hayes set? Pangea?

[Matt42]

Some absolutely massive songs are going to be played that weekend. Christ.

What a celebration of music. New and old.

Guys I’ve still not come down from the high.

This is the best Glastonbury lineup I’ve ever seen and probably the best festival lineup I’ve ever seen too.

I can see John Peel headliner, Friday maybe.

Feels like a John Peel slot to me!

I can't believe Wet Leg have made it on to the initial poster. Always thought that they would be there, but to put them on the first poster. It must be a real pisser for bands that are playing and actually have an album or two to play.

Amazing what a bit of hype can do.

It's deserved IMO, they're very popular right now. I saw them play last year, despite them only having had 2 songs out at the time they absolutely smashed it. They will definitely draw a decent sized crowd at Glasto

I would die for that set. As for where they play I think they're 100% John Peel 2-3pm.

This is a great line up for me so far, I have re-read the line up loads of times and I am still spotting bands I didn't see initially. 

Just need 2019's weather and this will be an excellent festival.

Olivias set is going to be full of singing from me and my group, no shame.

I don't mind Chaise Lounge, but when I think of some of the bands that launched albums last year and played sold out shows, that haven't made it on the poster. Just my opinion but it's a bit like the instant celebrity afforded to X Factor winners

To be fair, their album is out in a month 

[the wonderwhy]

I've only just noticed they put the Ukraine flag round the border of the poster. That's cool. 

[Miyn]

They're being pushed by their record label a lot. Probably had conversations with the booking team specifically asking them to be put on the poster.

Very discriminatory though if Putin has a ticket.

Amazing what every song you release being an absolute banger can do. No misses for the gals.

Unfortunately I think he got his assests frozen just before the payment window opened

I think they got on the poster of their own accord. They've been the most hyped new band in the country for like nearly a year now. Would've been one of the first omissions mentioned in the other thread if they weren't on there.

For sure, they’ve also joked on Insta about the industry plant rep they’ve developed. They’re just gonna be huge.

Ouch. He really didn't think this through.

This blows my mind. Of the 50 odd acts I'd like to see I'd happily pay to go and see any of them if they were playing locally, so to get them all for £285 is amazing value. The idea there's NOTHING there for people boggles my mind. 

And if that is the case - why not go and do some listening. There's definitely something there you'd like - you just don't know it yet. 

Clearly I'd only be able to actually see a minority of them, because of the logistics but still - it's mind blowing. 

Honestly, I'd say I know at least 30% of the lineup, and there's a fair few I would watch (mostly because the people I go with like them) but there's nothing on there that I'd be on Ticketmaster at 9am for.

As I said earlier, I'm happy for everyone, but I'm really struggling to part with that money right not for this because there's a lot of other places that I could (and if I'm honest, probably should) put that money right now. I'm going to wait until Monday to make my final decision

Yup and I imagine their positioning come next years festival will look great, early JP.

Oh spicy I love that. Four Tet’s Lost Village 2021 set is insanely good, best set I’ve ever listened to not having been there.

Yeah, I guess. But they've been pushed by their record label a lot to get where they are. Feels a bit of forced hype to me, but I do think they're good.
