See everyone keeps on posting the nearly same song on here (Superstition) and how amazing it would be. Ive no doubt that it'll be great, and that Stevie will be great, but as a headliner? Not convinced at all. Saturday night headliner in Glasto is the biggest gig in the world and I just think half of Stevies set is beautiful soul music, soft and played great. But still soft. The 5pm on the Sunday is where you need that. Or the Jazz World, but that'd be too rammed.

I Just Called to Say I Love You - I hope its in the contract that he doesnt play that.

IF Stevie's on, he'd have to headline...

it'd be like having Hendrix on the oldies slot :P

The more I think about it, the more Wonder makes sense. Only problem is he has a lot of ballads, so probably someone to enjoy dancing at the back rather than squashed up the front. There's not exactly going to be much jumping around if he does headline.

So let me get this straight. This is a festival that has in the past decade given headlining slots to Stereophonics, Rod Stewart, Moby, Kylie Minogue, Arctic Monkeys, The Killers, and The Verve but people are doubting that Stevie Wonder is of headlining standard?

What a crazy, crazy world we live in

(I actually hope he's playing the sunset slot before Prince but I doubt I'm that lucky :P )

Greenday = Not realistic - theyre more of a Reading band.

True. But they'll play T in the Park this year. Could Stevie Wonder sell out 2 nights at Milton Keynes?

Macca/Bowie = Both headlined with vintage shows before and unlikely to ever play the festival again. Their last shows were among the best the festival has ever put on and the two lads know that it'd be silly to try to top 'em.

Emily said there would be returning headliners, doubt they'll play but they're bigger than SW.

Radiohead = Have played multiple times. Will prolly headline again but please... enough with the Radiohead at Glasto. Do you want it to turn into a fest with annual Radiohead and some other bands?

I've never seen Radiohead. :P

now i wouldnt class myself as a particularly big fan of mr wonder but I do however have 2 or 3 of his albums in my collection and they are al very very good.

To be honest if this rumour is true it will be a worthy headline and it will take someone of serious magnitude to make me not watch this living legend.

I guess we could always get eavis to put it to the vote and we'd end up wiht fecking florence

If this is true,and he is doing the Pyramid on Sunday then its an even bigger signing than U2. he is not anyone i would want to see though,never have liked him at all,even though i will admit he is good. Just hope they have some decent bands on teh other stages,or i will be going home eary agaim...Could not be bothered with Blur last year.

No point in me watching him if i don't like him, hope there are good alternatives. Last year i gave Blur a wide berth as i can't abide them,nothing else i wanted to see so left for home about 11pm. It did not spoil my festival though still had brill time
