Also to clarify, I'm not claiming I knew anything, it was said in blind hope more than anything else. 
 

Yeah I assumed it was a guess!

[Ayrshire Chris]

Plenty to suit us on that.

"The John Peel stage would also be renamed Woodsies, said Eavis, part of a push to name stages after the fields that they stand in, such as West Holts and Silver Hayes."

By that logic there is going to be a bunch of stage name changes?

Terrible line up so far for me. Will still desperately trying for resale or volunteering spot.

It's really just a list of names for the Pyramid, Other and Woodsies. I doubt much of the West Holts line up is on there, for example. There's still all to play for.

To be honest its weirdly nice not having to run around catching stuff and having more random moments.

" part of a push to name stages after the fields that they stand in, as opposed to naming them after known paedophiles."

I’m happy with the line up so far.. at least 15 bands I want to see, missed Lizzo last time so really excited to see her.  I’m sure there’ll be more on the final line up that I want to see. 
Last years epic line up was a mixed blessing, it was perfect in that there were 40+ bands I wanted to see, loads of my favourite acts, minimal clashes but I just rushed from stage to stage, mostly on my own, and didn’t see the rest of the site enough.   This year looks like a more balanced year for doing all of the fun things.

That’ll be the real reason, they just don’t want to admit it. They’ve not changed Strummerville have they!

They do say any in the article it's not that though and it was done in cooperation with Peel's family.

Just thinking, the fact that this was announced in the guardian also indicates that they definitely have a decent pr operation in place.

sure she'll be good, but very unlikely to have the same magic atmosphere as last time, that was something extra special.
