Who would your Ideal Headliners for the pyramid stage be next year?

Despite my previous post on reflection I would like to see REM making a return, preferably Sunday night so I could see them on the way out of the festival, and leave on a major hiigh.

Dear Michael,

Please could you fix it for me...........

Too right on the Prince thing, I really do think he would be a brilliant choice to play - maybe one of the best ever. Just hoping he would actually do it...

On a different note, has anyone seen his high school yearbook photo? He looks like a completely different person, actually badass.

Theres that Prince yearbook photo btw, didn't wanna imbed it as it was fairly big. Realistically speaking I don't think he'll play but the 40th anniversary surely calls for legends such as him and if Dylans rumoured I'm wondering who else will be...

Bowie - Semi-retired? I know he sang backing vocals for Scarlett Johansson's album last year and just released some old stuff... I think he's likely.

Zeppelin - All in the hands of Plant and he doesn't seem tempted by cash so may be drawn to Glasto but I still doubt it.

Pink Floyd/The Smiths/Stone Roses - As if...

Pulp reunion

Radiohead

David Bowie

but I am not opposed to one of the headliners being awful (Killers, Turds of Leon, Arctic Monkeys, etc) since there's so much going on.

I'd be very surprised if we didn't see Muse one night - they haven't played for a while and will have material from The Resistance to unleash on a Glasto audience.

Radiohead have been rumoured for years but obviously signed an exclusive deal with Leeds/Reading this year. Despite having no new material i think for the 40th anniversary Eavis will be keen to deliver Radiohead to the Pyramid.

Which leaves one slot - a re-united Pulp would be fabulous but unlikely. I can't envisage Led Zep, Stone Roses or the Smiths getting back together either, despite the draw of Glasto's 40th birthday. The Stones are too greedy, and i hope U2 are too. Dylan would have to perform a greatest hits set, which i imagine he'd be loath to do. Prince would be absolutely fantastic. Beyonce could be a curve ball. My preference would be for Daft Punk or Faithless but i'm not sure that either are big enough for a landmark Pyramid occasion. I'd love to see Bowie too (lost my opportunity when he pulled out of T in the Park a few years back) but i'm not sure his health would permit it. Perhaps someone could come out of left field and take the charts by storm between now and then, but it seems that Eavis already has his irons in the fire...

My feeling is:

Friday - Muse

Saturday - Prince

Sunday - Radiohead

I can't believe that barely a week after 2009 we're already speculating on 2010's line-up. Brilliant, eh!?

    • One problem could be that many of the hospitality packages are already sold out. Unless you’ve a media contact, media organisations normally get a hospitality allocation.
    • I agree on WA taking a year off in 2027. But if they got the call from R&L could see them having a similar August to what Fontaines are doing now. A few random shows + 2/3 other festivals. The festival/LN does seem to love them as well so there is a chance they take a punt.   I did see about Rodrigo potentially doing a stadium in Poland but no clue if that would be 2027 or 2028, I just can't see her at the Fest at all, seems too big in current climate.   If I were to guess the headliners next year I'd go with Fred Again/Foos/Capaldi/Olivia Dean/Biffy or Wolf Alice/Some Rapper, Tems?
    • Ulitimately the “Top 6” or top 2 on a day by day basis work as a collective   You could easily have Foo Fighters and someone else much weaker on a single day   As long as they add up to 3, whether they’re a 2 and 1 or both 1.5s it doesn’t really matter   The Florence- Chase and status day is basically a 1.5 and 1, hence it selling the weakest
