    Aerosmith in fairness.......would be amazing. Take them over Taylor 'broke up with yet another boyfriend so going to write 5 more shit albums' Swift

    Did you create an account just to have a pop at Taylor?

    I would wager that by the Balance payment date, we would have had the 3 headliners.... so only another 167 days of this to go - ish. Not that long really

     

    Day 165, we are still arguing if 1975 or foals are viable headliners, the only difference is we're on page 1580

    Sounds like its time to get the mums out. Bands now require a 70% pass rate on this test.

    Question is what counts as recognition? Just recognising the name? Being able to name a song/album from memory? Recognising a song when its played for them?

    Very good point. My completely legitimate scientific experiment needs more work I think

    To be honest I'd just take recognising the name

    I like to base who can headline on what you think the response would be if you asked a random person in the street do you know who x band are

    For example if I asked 10 random people in the street do you know the band foals I think only 3/10 would 

    If I asked do you know who the killers are I would expect around 9/10

    For me a headliner should achieve 7/10 or more

     

    Furthermore I have not put this into practice at all and I am probably completely wrong

    Elton, Taylor and a band of some sort is my prediction. Probably Coldplay. Not sure why Aerosmith have good odds but I'd definitely take them.

    Quite happy for a poor headliner if santana is on WH at the same time though

  21. If you only do one thing at Glastonbury make sure you...

    Hmm. If I remember right I think it was about a bag and a half to a 70cl bottle. Again, do it it in stages until you get a flavour you like.

    Bonus is no need to filter as they completely dissolve, so  no sediment like you get with the Refreshers.

    Last year I ran out of mixer so thought it would be a brilliant idea to put a couple of raspberry laces from a sweets stall in 50cl of vodka. It did not dissolve, it went quite lumpy and it tasted much worse than straight vodka. So if you do one thing at glasto, don't do that

    There is no headliner that there wouldn't be complaints about. I'm not sure what the complaints against booking Elton would be but I guess I'd be happy to find out.

    If Elton did play I'd expect a record attendance on the pyramid. There's not many artists who's setlist's are so bangertastic. For example

     

    Bennie and the Jets

    All the Girls Love Alice

    I Guess That's Why They Call It the Blues

    Border Song

    Tiny Dancer

    Philadelphia Freedom

    Indian Sunset

    Rocket Man (I Think It's Going to Be a Long, Long Time)

    Take Me to the Pilot

    Sorry Seems to Be the Hardest Word

    Someone Saved My Life Tonight

    Levon

    Candle in the Wind

    Funeral for a Friend/Love Lies Bleeding

    Burn Down the Mission

    Daniel

    Believe

    Sad Songs (Say So Much)

    Don't Let the Sun Go Down on Me

    The Bitch Is Back

    I'm Still Standing

    Crocodile Rock

    Saturday Night's Alright for Fighting

    Encore:

    Your Song

    Goodbye Yellow Brick Road

     

    I mean wow, 90% of that would be superb glastonbury moments

    Same place as the Billy Joel rumour

    Thought I started the Billy Joel rumour

     

    Elton and Taylor would both be massive massive headliners. Put whoever you want on the remaining day, would be hard to complain with that (although I'm sure people would still manage)

    Would love this to happen but can't see it. His set at BST a couple years back was fantastic. Also the setlist was spot on, set 2 of dogs into pigs then a bunch off dark side and finishing with comfortably numb. What an hour of music
