Acts Touring around Glastonbury 2023

[Mardy]

But I fucking hate that way of announcing things. I want a poster with day splits and different sized fonts for the headliners and maybe subs. None of this graphic designer 'all acts are equal' nonsense

Kacey Musgraves back in the game!

Yes! Get in! and the Magnetic Fields. Marvellous.

Lorde PLEASE!

This is by far the best festival announcement since Covid. Hideous poster tho

I wonder if Lana’s absence means anything. However, Lorde coming back in makes me think she’s a good substitute.

Immediately hoping that

Lorde

Meghan The Stallion

Kacey Musgraves

Are on the farm!

Until we get a full poster. Eat your breakfast.

 

And that's just the undercard.

Looks damn good.

Ah thank you!

Absolutely top tier lineup there. Lorde, YYYs, Pavement (are they still exclusive?), Interpol, Dua, The National (obv), Nick Cave for Glastonbury please! Can’t read the undercard too well on my phone but I imagine there’s plenty of gems there too.

Would love to see the look on Mrs J's face when I said "yeah I'm leaving you and the kids to go to a two week festival in Barcelona... oh and a week later I'll be going to Glastonbury without you guys too."

It would not go down well.

Pretty sure they've confirmed they're gonna tour later in the year so no, no longer an exclusive, although don't think there's much chance of them popping up at Glastonbury.

So Lorde is in the sub conversation now?

If LDR doesn't return could see her filling in there.

I obviously want both, but all things considered I’d probably consider Lorde a slight win over Lana if that does end up being a sub. Lana has been killing it lately but Lorde is the far better live proposition.

Hopefully it’s Lana, Lorde and Cave though!

Unfortunately I think this is the case.

I also think Glasto may have pulled a blinder and kept Dua on the other stage too.

If it was that I’d honestly consider festival retirement. Tell me a better set of subs than that.... quickly

Please book Meghan

Good lord that is absolutely incredible 

[sisco]

Lorde, IDLES, Fontaines DC, Jamie XX, Jorja Smith and many many more!!

[jparx]

Wonder if we’ll start and see Mad Cool, Roskilde etc drop their lineups. Obviously some shared interest with those with Kenny and Taylor. Could really start to give us a decent idea for Glastonbury 

edit: just glanced the international board and Ken is hinting at RW news this week. The ball is rolling

Holy mother of god

I have to say that the way Primavera make their announcements by video is also great. It feels like a real event. It plays, names get thrown at you and in your breathless, post-video excitement, you lose all track of who's been announced! Really gets the adrenaline racing. Then a couple minutes later, the poster is published and you go again. Would love to see Glastonbury do something similar rather than a random name dropping here and there. If the weekend proved anything, the production values of the livestream lends itself to them doing something similar to Prima

Apparently King Gizz are playing seven days in a row! 😀

Seriously can't get over how good that lineup looks. If we get half of that I'll be happy.

Just give me YYY's headlining the JP one night and you can keep Billie Eilish.
