Mick never really sang like an angel..

Anyway I should imagine Stevie Nicks and Mick Jagger are roughly the same age.

[danbailey80]

Would be a very welcome addition..

[LusciousLucy]

Saw them the other week at Wembley and were bloomin ace. Cant see them headlining but would be a worthy addition to a Sunday arvo for an hour at least.

[Kyelo]

Not headlining. Other than that they welcome

[When Jokers Attack]

Would be amazing, A sunny afternoon, Couple of pints of brothers and some classic singalongs

[rexclark]

I would love to see them play.

I believe Holy Moly last year published the Neil Young/Blur/Springsteen combo before anyone else, even eFestivals. Today they say...

Fleetwood Mac have been booked to headline Sunday Night at next year's 40th Glastonbury festival.

Amazing.

Don't stop

Rumouring about Glasto,

Don't stop

It'll soon be here

Better than before........

[5co77ie]

How come they didn't end up playing last year? Was it a false rumour? I was quite looking forward to hearing some of their hits..

[plaskins]

Maybe they were talking about a different year?

[jeffie]

Ahhh.. so they just like to plan ahead...

The coincidence of both 40th anniversaries is an intriguing one!

You're right about what Holy Moly says today.

However, for this year eFestivals beat HM by weeks with Blur & Springsteen, and we published about Neil Young the same day Holy Moly ran their thing - but it wasn't anything we'd got from HM (we even added a bit on the news item a little later to say it wasn't from HM after we became aware of what HM had published).

I'm pretty sure that HM have got this wrong too (unless things have changed), as Eavis has been quoted as saying that the Sunday headliner is "a young person's band". They might be playing, but it doesn't seem as tho they're the headliner from that Eavis quote.

[plaskins]

Do you think they knew when they formed the group?

Stevie and Mick sat around, "I know we'll form a group and become really famous. If we do it this year, we can play in a field in Somerset in 40 years time.

The first Fleetwood Mac album came out in 1968.

(look down the subhead saying 'big love')

[fowls]

I hope this is true

U2, Rolling Stones & Fleetwood Mac would be a great lineup (if the RS and FM rumours are true).

[Zacko]

Would love a bit of the Mac but would they headline? I know they're technically big enough and all that but it would seem to contradict Eavis' young persons band (assuming it's deffo U2 and the Stones on Friday and Saturday)

[M!!!]

Apparantly not....
