Would love it if Ashcroft plays, Friday JP headliner would suit me as I don't want to see Muse or LCD if it's them.

That works for me too.

Any chance of Emmy the Great? She's touring right now.. new album just come out..don't know why she isnt more recognized...really good songwriting, new album really enjoyable as well, albeit a different sound to her previous works.

We all live in infinite hope she will appear, but I have tickets to see her on Sunday just in case.

i could of sworn Prince said no to IOW on Twitter when asked, although I can't find anything when I've searched now.

Seems to be The Who. Heard em mentioned a few times now and would make sense with the stuff they've just announced in España.

I definitely think it's Prince over anybody else. They need something mega to make up for the rest of the shoddy lineup 

On his last few tours nearly half of his set has been Verve covers

Ah hadn't look and didn't know....but I'm there, The Verve in 2008 were amazing.

Where would Ashcroft be? JP headliner? A few down from top on the other stage? Park headliner?

If he was up against MUSE or Coldplay, I'd be well up for seeing him.

Yeah I'm game.

Yeah them at Mad Cool makes it look nailed on....it doesn't make the lineup look any better though.

Oh well that's distinctly underwhelming, although will obviously go down well with the IOW crowd

[Alan_C]

Stereophonics/The Who/Queen would appeal to a lot of people going there, Massively uninspiring though.

Modest Mouse above Alan's High Flying Patridges on the line-up, the Americans have the right idea.

I'd love LL Cool J to come to the farm. And Tears for Fears.

Prince's shows are all solo piano affairs at he minute, no?

Hendrix tribute on an upright piano.

Modest Mouse and The Decemberists please.

Ryan Adams just coming back to the UK would be great.....probably not at Glasto granted!

Wolf Alice were absolutely brilliant again tonight at the Barrowlands. Think they'll be on the Other this year but they could easily headline the JP on that kinda form

You don't headline somewhere on form.

The Who have been confirmed for Isle of Wight.

Richard Ashcroft subbing them.

The Who is a pretty good booking, but doesn't really save a weak line-up overall.

If he plays Glastonbury that means he is not going to accept a JP / park place. I think he'll want pyramid then.

[Alan_C]

I thought the reason the announcement of the Saturday headliner was delayed, was because of contractual reasons. Why would The Who have a problem releasing there name earlier? It seemed like it would be someone like Prince the way it was being kept such a secret. Solid booking who will please the people who will enjoy Stereophonics and Queen, but that is one dull set of headliners. Richard Ashcroft subbing as well? Stereophonics co-headlining and Ashcroft subbing is shocking.

Didn't he turn up to Latitude the other year at the last minute and way down the bill? Surprised he's so high up without the album being out yet.

That would be the ideal place for him I think. Maybe 6-7pm for a good singalong. I would like to see him, but ideally not as a headliner in JP or The Park.

[Gucci Piggy]

Is it a rule that The Who have to bring their own shit to sub to whatever festivals they play? Is it to make them look better?
