Who do you think, will replace U2 realisticly

[jimmyt]

it needs to be a good band with anthems to sing along to which muse (and i love muse) and stevie cannot provide provide. so its coldplay for me.

[LastSeeker]

I'd love Prince (or The Cure!) but I think it'll be Snow Patrol... or Coldplay

Another random option: Depeche Mode?

[geztival_09]

Kasabian. Gez - you just said Kasabian.

U2 forced to pull out - and replaced by Kasabian. F**k me - do the words 'kick in the teeth' mean anything to you?

That's like getting all excited by a date with Jessica Alba, getting ready to go out to meet her and being told she can't make it, so has sent Sarah Jessica Parker in her place. But not to worry - Janet Street Porter is coming along too for stimulating conversation.

Ironic really, because those two horses look like they've been kicked in the teeth.

I think I'm against that horse shit band being anywhere near the festival, unless of course they're volunteering for long drop cleaning duties.

I'm happy to see you have included Biffy Clyro, but only 3 have voted for them.

Damn you! (shake's fist)

DOVES

[Langdale Wolf]

Did Tom Meighan piss all over your cornflakes or something??

I don't see what's wrong with them tbh. Oh well horses for courses

[DirtyFrank]

Pearl Jam!!

An amazing live band who are touring at the moment.

Muse would have to move to Friday as they are playing HRC on Friday so I guess this is unlikely?

[Tugger2k]

Even a bowl full of pissy cornflakes would taste better than the contemptible feeling I have in my mouth when I mention that band's name.

[Conrax]

I love the Biff but they aren't headline material...yet.

I don't mind them not being there, seeing em twice this year anyway

[Langdale Wolf]

we just going to have to agree to disagree on this one brother

me and the missis are in shot a few times in this, right down the front, loving it

[DanBowie]

Some sought of Eurovision medley

[Boosh]

i thought guns and roses were the best thing since sliced bread?

or was it U2?

or green day was it? or oasis?

now you've confused me...

[TheBoyInTheBubble]

I think Chris Martin and his mates will now be sitting around going "so what U2 song shall we cover to show we're thinking of Bono as we're loving the free publicity?"

For the record - I think they'll go with Where The Streets Have No Name. And then incorporate it into their live act for a while to remind everybody of "When Coldplay Saved Glastonbury".

I have a very cynical view of Chris Martin and Coldplay - but I will admit that they can write a pop song or two. I'd be up for watching them, although I'd prefer for something a bit different rather replaced uber-singalong-rock-band with diluted-singalong-rock-band.

[4AssedMonkey]

I want/think it should be/pray for DOVES!

I actually think it will be Coldplay. *sighs*

[Andy_R]

Dizzee... think he'll get bumped up the bill.... unfortunately...

[lahm]

Obviously going to be Coldplay or someone as underwhelming

The replacements have always been good and sometimes better then their previous

[fdc]

What about Leftfield? they said they would consider if anyone dropped out

[Weekend Cigarette Smoker]

If I had to put my new festival hat on it, then i'd go with Dizzie though I wouldnt be too suprised to see The Flaming Lips bumped up. I'd say they were bigger that Groove Armada and Hot Chip are big enough to headline the other stage

I'd like Boards Of Canada to headline but there's more chance of Nick Griffin getting the gig

[John_Champ]

I guess they must be busy or something seeing as they haven't been mentioned, but would Flight of the Conchords not be a good shout, maybe not big enough for another festival, but the Glasto crowd...

[tylerdurden]

All thats left is to call the lads surely...

[ghandi]

Ok, i am going to be positive about this. If Dizzee does get moved up the bill, does everybody else. If so i could in theory be set for Friday.
