You're probably closer in some aspects but Plan b having played the Pilton Party if I'm right kinda means a good spot at the following glasto and he's been on rumors from the start on pyramid stage. I'd say other stage headliner as he played 3rd last time so that could happen but efests have him down as on main stage now although that could change.

i also think you need flo in your thoughts, i don't like her but i can see her being there, the thing with the strokes is, no one seems to care, angels didn't exactly rocket, i can see jack white taking that place but can't see arctics there. they can do better than them for being of two years. like it or not, gaga is a far superior headlining candidate for the fest and with going on a two year tour which hasn't included england except for a couple of stadium dates later in the year, i'd be very surprised if glasto wasn't in her plans and vise versa with eavis

Aye, I forgot about Flo...such a shame... :P yeah she is very popular so will get a high slot. About The Strokes, they're working on the follow up to Angles, and although that album didn't really do so well, they're one if the most important and influential bands of this generation, and last years R&L showed that they can still pull a huge crowd. I would like to see them headline the Pyramid, but the Other Stage is much more likely. GaGa is a good shout, but after having no female headliner for god knows how long (ever?) before Beyonce last year, I'm not sure they'd have two in a row.

That's a bizarre thing to say. Makes it sounds like Glasto are sexist, and letting one female get a go just to shut people up so they can continue being sexist. Fairly sure that's not the case. If there's a solo female who they think is big enough and do a good job then it doesn't matter when the last one was

I have a thought in a different idea completely and before I'm shot down, they have just announced an arena tour jointly to headline and both have done big enough arena tours and dates before festivals this year. You'll know who I mean, they have also between them covered head spots in ireland, scotland and subs spots at iow, t and will have done v, the option of where to go are pretty cut down.

Snow Patrol and Noel Gallagher co-headline

Same could be said on this but Flo would be my 1st thought as Plan B will have kinda played this slot already.

Anyone's guess but I'm still saying the sub will be out of Plan B and Flo.

The Rolling Stones

Arcade Fire - but could easily be another

    • Another one from Sheffield DocFest this weekend, Earth Wind & Fire docu, directed by Questlove. Sensational archive footage, contributions from band members, family, plus a lot of very big fans (Stevie, Lionel, Flea, the Obamas) and a warts n all assessment of the genius / flawed human being that was Maurice White. Also, I never realised he started out as a jazz drummer with Ramsay Lewis. Well worth a watch.
    • In a 6,800-word Substack essay, external, the Clacton MP said "anti-white racism was embedded into the state", and that legislation aimed at equality was a form of "social cleansing"   .https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cdjkd4mp93zo   The privileged white c**t hasn’t got a clue what racism is. 
    • BBC iPlayer: Will serve as the main hub for past sets, including both recent hits and iconic archival gems. You can explore the BBC iPlayer to watch curated compilations, "Best of Glastonbury" recaps, and on-demand replays of historic headline performances.

[1] Radio & BBC Sounds: Pop-up Glastonbury radio stations on BBC Sounds will feature non-stop coverage, including exclusive mixes and huge sets from past years
