John Peel Stage acts announced

The Cribs, Jamie T, Biffy Clyro and The National have been announced as the main headliners for the John Peel Stage at this year's Glastonbury.

Some of the bands, like The Cribs, had previously confirmed their participation in the festival which takes place between June 27 -29, and now organisers have revealed where they will play.

The Ting Tings, The Futureheads and Reverend And The Makers will also play on the stage, according to Radio 1's Newsbeat.

The full line-up is announced on 1 May, although Kings of Leon, Jay-Z and The Verve have been confirmed as headliners.

yeah FYI vonman about 75% of people who go to glasto go for more than just the music - its not like reading where you just go there and watch the music and thats it - and besides, the line-up this year isnt that bad anyway, with the exception of jay-z
