First off , I am not a huge Radiohead fan ( seen em a few times ) , but their peformance at Leeds
was inspiring and I thought they were the best band by far ( which was not difficult consigering KOL
and Arctic Monkeys ) , but they were good, very good

Their lo energy stage set was brilliant by the way !

I know I have posted plenty in the past about them playing , but that was more to do some peoples
opioins that Glastonbury is a poorer festival wothout em, and that some would only go to Glastonbury  to see R/H  amongst plenty of others.

So if they do get booked , I will be very pleased , will watch em - But reserved the right to have
a go at any posters that get carried away .

  ;)

Never been a massive fan of their music (a bit boring and self-indulgent IMO, save the odd good song) but I was really impressed with their performance at Leeds and wouldn't mind seeing them again next year. Possible shout for the "best of British" Sunday headliner?

Incredible at Leeds. Would definitely like them to be at Glastonbury next year.

They must be very likely for Glasto next year, what with them being part of the furniture there and the 40th anniversary.

The stage setup they had at Reading and Leeds looked very cool and some of the songs off In Rainbows would go down very well.

I am not a hypocrite !!!

I just got sick of some of the posts  ,  some of which were

"Radiohead at Lancashire CC will be a better weekend then Glastonbury  ! "
"Tickets are not selling cos Radiohead are not playing ! "
" Glastonbury needs Radiohead ! "

And someone saying to me they would only go to Glastonbury if Radiohead were playing takes the fkn biscuit.

saw em in 96 and they were incredible. since then the whole "we are an important band, innit" schtick has spoiled them for me. and the fact that their fans are total bog warriors.

Except Reckoner. Which is basically the best song ive heard in the last five  years.

Faithless & Radiohead are my only wants - I get my hopes up every year and they just don't appear on the line up! All I need is these two - if the rest of the slots were filled with the cheeky girls I wouldn't mind.

Rolf deserves a pyramid spot - have never seen jazzworld so crowded - was ridiculous! People were backed up against the fence!

I was very impressed with them at Reading this year :P

In saying that, probably wouldn't go see them at Glastonbury, prefer the obscure parts at that time of night

I've made a resolution not to see any of the headliners next year, like Paul ™ says, want to wander off to see some of the other stuff. it would take a f**king amazing headliner (Prince, probably) to make me change my mind. Can't see it happening.
