Hope its not the Killers again, they only headlined in 2007, and it wasn't the most memorable headlining performance I can remember, apart from how shite the sound was that night

They would need something new and spectacularly good, for them to headline again so soon, and I cant see that happening if their recent albums are anything to go by

I think U2 originally announced around late Nov 09 to appear in 2010; obviously didn't happen.

Consequently they then announced around Feb 2011 that they would finally rock up in June 11 (was worth the wait imo, whatever your personnal views on individual band members)

Hope the same happens this year and no headliners are announced pre ticket day; love all the speculation/rumours, adds to the build up :)

to all the above. my reason is that they'll take no less than headline now I wouldn't imagine and they didn't like it at all apparantly last time. Not exactly one of those, wow glasto we've gotta come back bands and for the money they'll get, they won't bother and just play where the pay day will be IMO.

Radiohead, The Roses, The Stones, Lady GaGa - 3 of those I expect will do a lot more more glasto than AF will

    • Pretty sure at the stage we can expect the charge for Man City will be a 10 point deduction for..... Everton     
    • Ah those were the days....! When you could go to the festival and nearly drown.
    • It's only the last few years that the festival have started calling it the Legend Slot.  For most of its existence it's been the Teatime Slot, with the idea it was the sort of music that Jean Eavis liked to listen to whilst having tea on a Sunday afternoon i.e. MOR, Radio 2, borderline easy listening sort of music.  Hence bookings like Shirley Bassey, Neil Diamond, Tom Jones, etc.  There's mibbe some overlap there with classic radio rock and of course the boundaries are all pretty fuzzy now, but it's generally not a rock slot.
    • I've never had any issues. Remember watching some Tour De France stages on phones in the past. Maybe at the festival sight it could be a problem, but I think people are spread out enough on camping.    Maybe it will be different this year with only teenage girls coming to see The Cure, David Byrne and Napalm Death 😅 
    • They'll surely put AdP on Woods. They are aware of the off the scale level of hype.
