David Gilmour

[Dunney77]

I would absolutely love David Gilmour to be asked to step in and headline. He asked to play back in 2008 but was rejected by Michael Eavis, surely his time has come. Any possibility he will be asked? The suggestions so far seem to be 'unsurprising' (coldplay etc) as U2 were such a major surprise I am sure he would create the same effect and would be an epic headliner. He is probably still bitter over his rejection a few years back

Oh Christ, here it comes.

Take a breath

Take a deep breath now

Take a breath

A deep breath now

Take a breath

I just cannot see this happening at all, even though it would be a dream come true.

This thread is evil and must be closed.

Michael Eavis said he would be asked in the future....NOW IS THE TIME PLEASE!!

[Langdale Wolf]

No more threads about Friday headliners would be amazing

DG would be great if you have trouble sleeping.

Now I'd really like this, and even more so if Mr.Bowie were to tag along again ... but I can't see that's it's seriously going to happen any time soon ! Apart from anything else, I get the distinct impression that Mr.Gilmour doesn't exactly forget issues various and almost certainly hasn't got a reputation for being a kiss and make up kinda guy either Any potential hatchet needing to buried is perhaps more likely to end up in someone's back rather than anywhere else I would imagine ! Having been effectively turned down when kinda looking for a slot at short notice in 2008 and allegedly being way more than a bit p!$$ed off over what was a perfectly reasonable decision at the time, I can't honestly see him jumping at an offer to play even if one was made can you ?

[MrZigster]

Slightly off thread but I think if Bowie will show anywhere it will be with The Pet Shop Boys for Hallo Spaceboy.

[mikeb]

Indeed but potentially also with Ray Davies on Sunday for a Sunny Afternoon of course

I would still put money on an appearance somewhere anyway regardless of official denials and those are by far the most likely guest spots I think. No matter what, I shall be very much enjoying both in any case but a surprise special guest would defo be totally brilliant

Theres already going be a better version on saturday evening before the headliners

Sorry that was a poor atempt at a joke, and I in no way believe that statement, I think this is my fav suggestion of acts to replace u2 and a legend that could be able doable?

[parsonjack]

Time is a great healer - surely DG would realise that ME couldn't simply bump his Pyramid acts, even considering Rick's sad condition at the time?
