Glastonbury festival: The full lineup, including Gorillaz, as a spreadsheet

U2 announced yesterday that they were pulling out of the headline spot at this year's Glastonbury festival, leaving a rock-shaped hole that organisers Michael and Emily Eavis have filled with Damon Albarn's side-project Gorrilaz. Speculation about a possible replacement had included Dizzie Rascal, the Rolling Stones and Kylie Minogue, who pulled out of her Glastonbury performance in 2005 when she was hit by breast cancer.

But Glastonbury is about so much more than the headline acts. Who else will be rocking Worthy Farm over the weekend of 23-27 June? Using information from the official Glastonbury website, we've compiled a list of all the artists playing this year. Check out the running order on the main stages in the table below, or download the spreadsheet for the full line-up across all the stages and venues announced so far.

Last year, RichardAblewhite created a magnificent visual mash-up by combining the Datablog's Glastonbury dataset with content from several other sites. Can you do anything similarly spectacular with this year's line-up?
