LCD Soundsystem
Tame Impala
Blossoms
White Denim
Shibusashirazu Orchestra - think I saw these guys play Glasto a few years ago, anyone remember? Crazy but fascinating.

AlunaGeorge
Explosions In The Sky
John Grant
Savages
Daughter
Kurt Vile
Philip Glass' Heroes Ceremony (David Bowie's Heroes album played in full by an orchestra, I believe)

I said on the other thread my mates got in without a problem, left at midnight last night and had the tents up by mid morning. It looks like it's only bad traffic if you're in the East car parks, which is bad if you're in a camper van! I guess that's where all the horror stories are from.

Albion fans will be a bit spooked to queue this long and NOT hear "sorry, we're out of steak but we still have veggie pies left".
