This election is still a dead heat, according to most polls. In a fight with such wafer-thin margins, we need reporters on the ground talking to the people Trump and Harris are courting. Your support allows us to keep sending journalists to the story.

The Independent is trusted by 27 million Americans from across the entire political spectrum every month. Unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock you out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. But quality journalism must still be paid for.

This year's Glastonbury Festival is just over a month away and, while excited, ticket-holders are surely dreading the inevitable headache caused by the frustrating case of clashing acts.

It's begun - the first set-list times have reportedly trickled in and Clashfinder has wasted no time in providing revellers with the opportunity to map out their schedule.

Let's tackle the headline slots first. Friday night Pyramid Stage dwellers Muse will be going up against LCD Soundsystem (Other Stage), Underworld (West Holts), Sigur Rós (The Park Stage) and Two Door Cinema Club (John Peel Stage).

Adele - who'll be headlining the Pyramid Stage on Saturday - will be up against New Order (Other Stage), James Blake (West Holts) and Craig David's TS5 (Sonic).

The Festival will close with a Pyramid Sunday night performance by Coldplay, but elsewhere will be PJ Harvey (Other Stage), Earth, Wind & Fire (West Holts), Bat for Lashes (The Park Stage) and Jake Bugg (John Peel Stage).

While there are still hundreds of timings to be announced, further introspection shows yet more clashes. Of course, nothing's been confirmed by official organisers.

Glastonbury Festival will take place from 22-26 June.
