I would love this to happen.
I want to know that it will!

[chris northwest]

good possibility! shes making other festival appearances this year, so i cant see why not.

[Paul ™]

Might just be due to they are playing IOW/Rockness a couple weeks before Glastonbury, am looking forward to seeing them up at Rockness

[BlackHole2006]

Cos they are a good band and good bands generally do play Glasto.

I would love to see this happen

This would be on my 'must see' list.  Saw them 2 or 3 years ago in Manchester... had such a great time we ended up getting returned tickets from the box office to see them in Harrogate the following night.  They put on a great show, and Debbie could certainly move for a 60+ year old!  Really really hope this happens!

I'm seeing them about 2 weeks before Glastonbury at Westonbirt Arboritum.

One of my favourite bands since I was about 6 years old, I never thought I'd see them live. I'd seen Debbie Harry with Jazz Passengers a few years previously, but when they came on the Pyramid last time I cried. Only time seeing an act has ever affected me emotionally like that.

If they play fantastic, I can't believe how good this years lineup is rumoured/confirmed to be so far.

I was thinking about going to that, but thought I'd wait and see if they played Glastonbury. It would be sooo much better there!

[tonibw]

Oooh, I really hope they play!

[laid back in the sun]

was ok the last time i seen her but tbh it is a bit like watching your gran on stage

[vespa]

this would be all good excellent band i've wanted to see for years

[Boris]

She is indeed not the sexy young creature of her heyday... but she is still most cool and when I saw them about 5 years ago they were good fun. She can still sing and they can still play... and surely that's what matters!

Wish my gran looked like that - er, maybe not.

Aye, stand a good distance away and squint your eyes, the memores of yesturyear will do the rest.

She still has her voice (mostly), and it never was perfect, but the brilliant pop that Blondie created is timeless.

fantastic fun at Latitude a couple years back.  

[sufcmatt]

would be a cracking addition to the line-up  

[stutheblue]

I saw them on the Parallel Lines tour a couple of years ago in Liverpool, were great. They played Parallel Lines right the way through. Her voice seemed to go a bit after about an hour but still a superb show. Support was from the Stranglers, who were also great.

[ghandi]

Blondie was my pin up as a boy, i remember doing a drawing of her in my art class as a portrait and putting it on my school book , what a cracker she was. Must admit that the sands of time catch up to us all, but might still be worth an afternoon slot on the Pyramid, after all last year you had the Specials and Madness, so why not, it would be fun.

Maybe not the sexy YOUNG thing but definitely a sexy as hell 65 year old lady. I think the majority of us would be over the moon to be like her when we have our bus pass!  Young doesn't equal sexy!  Regardless, they were superb at Latitude a few years ago, and would be a welcome addition to the festival!

[ramragon]

would be a great addition to the line up, could imagine a greatest hits set going down a storm

[JJ Festi Mad]

I'm looking forward to seeing her at Isle of Wight. I wonder where the Glastonbury rumour actually came from     

Also, I see Hot Chip have recently appeared as 'TBC' on the Friday, do you think that they will headline the Other Stage? I'm looking forward to seeing Hot Chip at Bestival
