Acts Touring around Glastonbury 2023

[4AssedMonkey]

Names that genuinely are exciting me from some of the other fest announcements are The Beths, Young Fathers and Rina Sawayama.  I'd go out of my way to see any of those (clashes willing of course).

That’s gotta put them in the frame for Download rather than Glastonbury surely?

It's the weekend after Download, which seems to be going on earlier this year. So, it may do, but it may not do.

This is freaking huge for me. I will be seeing them next week so unsure about Manchester, but…. Could they be at the farm? Headlining JP perhaps. It would make my festival.

I couldn't imagine them making an appearance - can't see them fitting in anywhere, as much as it would be incredible (cannot wait for next Friday!) Download maybe?

Download certainly would be a good fit for them, but maybe they would be up for ticking the Glastonbury box. I think there's room for them. Maybe I'm just being overly optimistic...

I don't think it's a case of PT not wanting to "tick the Glastonbury box" - more that I am not sure if any Glasto areas would book them. A unique band who can sell out Wembley Arena, but probably would be unknown to at least approx. 75-80% of Glasto attendees.

They could do a Pyramid slot like Spinal Tap a few years back?

The In It Together festival.

[4AssedMonkey]

How the holy flying fuck has Kelis not got top billing on that?  Bangers left, right and centre!

I don’t understand the world anymore. Think I’m past my sell by date….

[CaledonianGonzo]

I dunno if it applies here, but Kelis keeps getting booked for festivals that she doesn't show up for. There's something up somewhere

[4AssedMonkey]

Ah. Didn’t know that. Fair point I guesss.

As in the line-up quality or the poster design? Cos that is one violently messy poster.

[Supernintendo Chalmers]

It's good to see at least one festival with Diversity in their lineup. Take note Emily

Tenacious D playing The O2 on Friday 16th June.

Definitely about time the saxaboom was broken out at the big G!
