Heilung look amazing but their music is pretty weak.
I know West Holts were already very excited about booking them last year.
I briefly walked post the Mongolian Band last year (name escapes) but they certainly seemed impressive.

Jeeeez...there's a Pyramid stage headliner (SZA) I have never heard of. I'm getting old.
Burna Boy lives just down the lane from me. I have no idea who he is either. (I think it is actually Stefflon Don's house tbf. But then I don't know who she is either).

not a great looking line up on main stage but other stage looks ok.

Nothing but thieves, still don’t know why they are that Low down, should be a headliner.

Coldplay headlining again is cringe though.
I'm clearly woefully out of touch- apparently that's a record for headlining the festival. I just don't get them and that Chris Martin chap makes me feel queasy.
Coldplay are basically the Glastonbury house band now, and here is the thing.....people flipping love them. Their Glastonbury shows are great. I got dragged to see them in 2011 by my friends and whisper it quietly I quite enjoyed it. I have no interest in seeing them again mind but they will fill the field and give Emily a festival friendly price.

Michael Kiwanuka is amazing. He'll be well worth watching. As will Idles, Fontaines D.C, P.J Harvey and the National.

Plenty of other acts who should be pretty decent too.

Admittedly the headliners on the pyramid stage aren't exactly awe inspiring but I'm sure there's enough there without them to ensure you'll have a good time if you go. Although 355 quid a ticket does seem a little expensive.

Very disappointed by that as an armchair fan quite happy to camp in front of iPlayer most of the weekend. There doesn't seem to be much rock.

Any guitar worth looking out for in some of the smaller bands listed?

For all the hate, Coldplay will be fairly epic i suppose

I remember going to see Michael Kiwanuka at the Dome maybe five years ago and Bruno and Leroy Rosenior were there. That's all.

Fontaines
Mannequin Pussy
Blondshell
Squid
Yard Act
Mdou Moctar - if you like rock infused world music

Would be my highlights.
 












Jason Steele for England will be at Glastonbury 2024, I can confirm:
If you can get this banner up again with the worst section of Brighton fans trying to wrestle it down, I'll be impressed (y)

I just think Elton John last year would take some real beating.
