    That's probably not even a third of the line-up, it'll fill out. Feel they are holding something back.

    They've replaced Rage Against The Machine with Dermot Kennedy, christ.

    No Chemical Bros and they removed half the good hip hop acts. Pixies, Fontaines DC & Khruangbin are good additions but I think this is worse than the 2020 lineup.

    Fontaines D.C, Glass Animals, London Grammar, Pixies, The Kooks, Wolf Alice, Denise Chaila, Annie Mac, For Those I love, Saint Sister

    immediately on my list to see.

    Plenty of others to listen to and get to know as well.

    Pretty happy. Will take in Fontaines, Arctic Monkeys, Pixies, Girl in Red, Tame Impala and plenty that I don't know yet that I will by September. Will be swirving the barking seals of Snow patrol, Picture This & Dermot K - they all blend into one rotten noise for me but no doubt I will be kept busy elsewhere. Can't wait!

    Need to do a bit of spotifying the undercard as there are only 3 there I'm interested in so far, 2 of which are djs. No must sees yet and none of the headliners.

    AH FOOK. Just realised Arctic Monkeys is the Sunday...have never seen them live but unfortunately we leave to collect our sprogs on the Sunday what with them demanding an education and all.

    I know it is like comparing oranges and lemons, but look at the Glasto lineup and then the EP lineup. Similar ticket prices.

    Ah here. Compare Glasto to any festival in the world. Pointless exercise.

    As much as RATM is a big loss, really disappointed that Run The Jewels aren't there. One of the best Hip-Hop acts in the world atm.

    But if you had given me Tame Impala, Arctic Monkeys, Fontaines, Pixies, Bright Eyes, Little Simz, Sleaford Mods, Just Mustard and The Scratch yesterday, I would have been quite happy

    RATM & RTJ at Reading & Leeds, I can't fathom why they aren't on the first line-up poster. Feeling confident they will both be announced later.

    Maybe there's more tickets returned than we thought still to sell and they've announced acts to appeal to a certain younger demographic to shift them?

    Fairly happy with that tbh. Plenty there for me already. But Picture This, FFS. They must have dirt on Melvin Benn or something, brutal.

    Replacing RATM with Dermot Kennedy is top banter.

    Shambles of a line up.

    Their recent performances would not fill me with any desire to see them butcher their own music again

    Depends how you look at headliners. You could say Snow Patrol have been replaced with Tame Impala and Chems with Arctic Monkeys...both are an improvement in my eyes
