I was kind of joking, but Tories are a dying breed these days.

I think rumour was Avalon on Sunday - I'm assuming Avalon Cafe now - would be nice if he was on Left Field too.  If the Sunday bit is correct he could have a very quiet time on Sunday evening in the Cafe...

Yes, he deserves a decent audience. Left field and an appearance on Strummerville, that would be nice.

The cafe is no longer, or at least it wasn’t last year: https://www.somersetlive.co.uk/news/somerset-news/glastonburys-avalon-caf-no-longer-7192044.amp

Oh wow - I think I had heard that, but wasn't there last year and must have dropped out of my head 🙂  Lovely place to sit with table and chairs, rubbish place to try to watch anything.  No ideas on Gaz then...

It was there in 2022 - just smaller, in a slightly different place and run by different people.

Reckon there’s one in between them. Surely Mel C ends the night

Last year there were 2 after the 8pm (well was 8.05 spot).

I suppose they may want her clashing with headers though rather than finishing after they finish for a big rush

Anyone able to guess who the 3 Avalon headliners would be from this list? Mel C? Who else?

Can’t understand why she isn’t a massive star by now.

She looked set to be one early in her career, but for whatever reason (possibly the long-ish wait between album #1 and 2 and then even moreso between #2 and 3) she dropped off, which is a shame because yeah, that latest album was ace and really felt like the type of shit lots of people should love, but nobody heard it.

The Damned and absolutely no idea for the 3rd

[sisco]

Friday:

Jamie Webster

 

Saturday:

Mel C, Jake Shears, Fisherman’s Friends, Gabrielle Alpin

 

Sunday:

Neville Staple

Very Avalon lineup, might try and catch Mel C and/or Jake Shears clash dependant, not surprised at all at the lack of a McFly sort act with how crazy busy that set was last year, still sure it'll be a great area again this year just to have a bit of a chill, a pint and listen to some music.

Yep - great live act.  As are Lottery Winners.  Elvana are cracking fun too (seeing them tonight).  I'd also be intrigued by Jake Shears, Mica Paris and Far From Saints.  Pretty decent line up I reckon that.

add Holy Moly and the Crackers to that list of great live acts (as well as Vintage Trouble as previously mentioned) and I agree that there is plenty there to enjoy..

btw, I thought the Silver Hayes announcement was a big bag o' shite.. but i didnt feel the need to go piss on their fireworks

[dreams_burn_down]

I'd guess at Laura Mvula being one of the headliners. She certainly wouldn't feel out of place on a bigger stage.

 

[CantWaitForGlasto22]

Mel C has confirmed she’s the Sat night (presumably headlining)

I think she's played the Pyramid a couple of times.

She has and was excellent.

Think this year will be the worst ever for clashes for me and my first time seeing an act in the Avalon Tent.

[Ayrshire Chris]

Was hoping to see Skinny Lister appear on the Avalon but there’s quite a few acts we would like to see, clashes allowing.
