So it's U2- Fri, Prince- Sunday...

Yeah if GaGa was to even play she'd do nothing but headline the festival, there's no way she'd play anywhere else.

Actually, maybe she'll sub to Elbow?

[MEGABOWL]

I'd be supprised if Gaga isn't headlining. She seems to be the biggest artist in the world right now.

[Vanderlyle]

Personally in terms of size I think there's very little doubt that it goes:

Kings of Leon > Arcade Fire > Elbow

Arcade Fire might be close to being able to headline Pyramid. Elbow are way off I'm afraid.

In terms of who I prefer, it goes Elbow> Arcade Fire > Kings of Leon.

Which is kinda the whole point. Put Kings of Leon or Gaga on Pyramid. I'll have a way better time with half the crowd at the Elbow gig on Other, rather than with a bunch of people complaining that they don't know Some Riot.

Have you not heard 'Come Around Sundown' yet then? I'm glad the Glastonbury set was good as I'm now having to resort to pretending that they simply split up after that and stopped making music.

[WS_Jack_III]

I'd be amazed if she is. One album, could be a flash-in-the-pan as the world gets bored of meat-dress type stunts. I'd be astonished, oh, and nowhere near of course

[jackarmy]

I'd be very surprised if we saw Arcade Fire at Glastonbury in the next few years.

They didn't enjoy the mud of 2007 and I believe they felt it was a bit of a snub to be 2nd top of the Other Stage when they were sub-headlining Reading.

Also, they strike me as the type of band who are motivated mainly by money, hence the exclusivity deals signed with R&L and Oxegen.

He won't.

That joke has run it's course now.

Aren't the two halves of that last sentence mutually incompatible?

They will have been paid a lot of money for those exclusivity deals.

Mind, I agree that I don't think we'll see them at Glastonbury anytime soon

[Woppa]

Shame they kept them under wraps and released those three snore-fests then, eh?

Potato, po-tah-to.

[jackarmy]

And making three stunning albums

[Porcelina]

Lol at Arcade Fire being 'in it for the money' because they headlined Reading and Leeds before Glasto.

What does that make Glastonbury's 'beloved' Radiohead then, that snubbed R/L for so long to stump up the extra cash?

If they were motivated by money then being paid a lot of money would motivate them. No?

For the Sunday night crowd at the Pyramid (packed with day trippers/ locals) surely Kylie is a safer bet...

Last couple of years has been more and more like a Radio 2 playlist on Sunday in any case.

Not that its a porblem for me at my advanced age...

[goldfishboy]

What percentage would you say Prince is for headlining. Also if possible what about the other contenders, namely Radiohead, Coldplay, Madonna etc..

[eFestivals]

Prince - 77%

Radiohead - 32%

Coldplay - 7%

Madonna - 41.3%

you've got that wrong. Maddonna is actually 41.286%.

Some people just don't do accuracy.
