Kraftwerk made my list too! Depeche Mode would've, but I heard that had a pissy fit about not condoning some of the acts on the bill last year & pulled out, so I think the chance of them ever playing are slim to none.

Also:

They Might Be Giants

The King (sings songs by other dead singers or bands with a deceased member in the Elvis style)

Daniel Johnston

Har Mar Superstar (after his brilliant performance as Neon Neon's guest in 2008, I think he deserves a spot)

Kid Carpet (If you don't know who he is Google him, or search YouTube, it's worth it)

Goldie Lookin Chain (Ben a while since they've played + the new album [Asbo 4 Life] is awesome)

Kaiser Chiefs (2 year absence, worthy of a return)

Tom Waits

WILLIAM SHATNER (Imagine how brilliant that would be + there is a Facebook campaign)

Finally, while not a headliner, I think they could play towards the end of the bill one night at the Pyramid:

Brian May & Roger Taylor from Queen.

Both have toured as solo artists & performed Queen songs within their sets. Roger has an excellent singing voice & Brian May is, in my opinion, second only to Jimi Hendrix as a guitar god.

ok, i fancy a return to the magical fields of glasto after a long absence and hope for the following -

pavement - reunion show would be unmissable

arcade fire - potential worthy sub-headliners on any stage

bright eyes - an one off show like fuji rock 09 may not be out of the question

thom yorke - a mid-afternoon solo slot would be pretty cool

modest mouse - another indie rock classic to fit the anniversary mould

sigur ros - would be beautiful on a cloudless night

islands - canadas best kept indie-pop secret

british sea power - almost glasto veterans, branches at the ready

sunset rubdown - even more cathartic canadian indie pop would be nice

jay jay pistolet - a unique british up-and-comer

so get booking the eavis'!

      Kendal Calling Interactive Map

      By northernangel · Posted

      I honestly didn't know it had, I still thought it was where the view overlooked the lake and view.   I think my decision not to attend this year at least was justified. Biffy was the big draw but after Finsbury I knew they wouldn't play what I want to hear again and well work also got in the way. Believed interesting to hear if Libertines were any good as they were also a pull but Sunday did nothing for me really with all my acts on Friday and Saturday.

      Superscally Superhuman AC DC inspired charity Run ....Melbourne to Brisbane ...Highway to Help

      By northernangel · Posted

      I hate tradmill running with a passion lol. Yeah the 1km reps are the one along with hill reps. That's what I did last time.  It's very a very hot summer and job circumstances to stay at the consistent level I was for the marathon earlier in the year. I've got a full set of the main distance new PBs this year. 10k isn't a problem most days but even today I went out deciding just over 5 mile was enough between recovery cruise and steady.

      There is also a solid argument from Seventeen already that not enough people actually care if they book them also.
