The Human League have confirmed for Guilfest.

i think they would be perfect, late night somewhere near the village at Glasto - other stage perhaps.That unique synth opening of "love action."

Beats staus quo for me anyday!

now you're talking!  Saw them back in the 80's and they were ace.  Saw them at Mardi Gras in the 90's, and they hadn't lost it!  Bring on the dodgy haircuts.

Saw them at the Electric Picnic in Ireland a few years ago, only know a couple of tunes but Don’t You Want Me Baby was ace. Great sing-a-long.

I must admit they were awesome at V this year.

They would make a great addition to Glasto for next year.  :P

Maybe cause they're crap  :P

80's synth should remain a memory, and a bloody bad one at that.  Had to suffer it the first time round so it's a no thanks from me

Saw them in August at Manchester Pride in the pouring rain and they were brilliant. Fabulous jiggy sing-along action :P

I saw them at Lovebox a couple of years ago and.............

absolutely awful! Was really looking forward to it and was dreadful. The rig looked like a giant white ipod and one of the girls looked like Nessa from Gavin & Stacey in full biker gear.

I still have nightmares about that image  :P

Best band ever in the history of music.  Better than U2 as headliners.

Reproduction and Travelogue are great albums.
Went down hill from there.

Both versions of Being Boiled. Preferences folks? Hard to choose but probably the Holiday 80 version for me.
