Seen quite a few shouts for Dreadzone on here, but I can't remember the last time I saw them at Glastonbury in a headline slot as the live band.

They always seem to get an early evening slot in the dance village or Glade (or both), and then get a sound system set at a later time, last couple of years on the Arcadia stage, previously at the Glade and G stage.

For me it's not really a complete festival without seeing them in some guise over the weekend. I agree they'd blow the Jazz field away with a headline slot, and would love to see it happen.

How about

Joe Jackson

Was Not Was

Randy Newman

[Dark Star]

Toots & The Maytals

Rodrigo Y Gabriela

Los Lobos

[usatoglas]

rachid taha

Ozomatli

Max Romeo

[beodeejay]

Surely these are more likely for Avalon, Glade or Dance Village?

[Red_Eye_Jedi]

Toots and the maytals

Skatalites

Dreadzone

[Wooderson]

Portishead

Boards of Canada (Performing Music has the right to Children)

TV on the Radio

Okay, so not the most jazzy selection.

I'd also like to see David Byrne there, possibly too big, or Lemon Jelly back from hiatus, or Flight of the Conchords would be a cool booking.

Edit - M.I.A would be quality too

[sisterofmercy]

Rodrigo Y Gabriela

[Langdale Wolf]

On the subject of Show of Hands - they've got a new album out in the next few weeks. Looking forward to that.

Acoustic/Avalon Stage please.

[The Dawg]

More Blues on there please, preferably in the mould of;

Seasick Steve

Joe Bonamassa

Tommy Castro

[Billy09]

Toots and the maytals

Skatalites

Dreadzone

[grumpyhack]

Rodrigo y Gabriella were superb at Glasto a couple of years ago. Like to see them back also Bonnie Raitt, who was awesome.

Also a great gypsy punk band called The Destroyers. Like Gogol Bordello but with real class. They played this year but I missed them and only caught them at another fest later.

Also King Pleasure and the Biscuit Boys - great swing band in the Louis Prima style.

Top top quality from you there chief. Though BOC would be "Glade" act if ever there was one. But if they were to show I'd go see 'em over a reformed Smiths.

[Wooderson]

Yeah, me too.

Any idea what they are upto these days? Haven't heard anything of them since Campfire Headphase

[jamseyboy]

Waterboys

Yusuf

Pogues

........but all at a time after the other headliners have finished so that I can get across to see them.
