Well this will be our first time, we've been wanting to do it for a very long time. Did a couple of other festivals over the years, Leeds and V a few years ago but always wanted to do the biggy. Now our boys are a bit older we plan on taking them, not sure how that's going to go but I'm sure we will have fun finding out.

Out of all the acts mentioned here recently I would love any of the following, I'm not greedy!

Led Zepplin(I wish) Stones, Roses, Radiohead, Arcade Fire, Prince, Tinie Tempah, Killers, Neil Young, Daft Punk, The Smiths reformed? (I think I would die and go to heaven)

you'll get one or more of these I reckon (the rest, no chance):-

Stones, Roses, Radiohead, Arcade Fire, Prince, Tinie Tempah, Killers, Daft Punk.

What do you think about chances of Lady Gaga to close the Pyramid?

she's one of around 20 or so acts that it's likely to be. There's really not that many options for a headliner when it comes down to it.

As things stand she doesn't seem any more or less likely than most of the possibilities in that list, because there's nothing to particularly make one more likely than the other for many of them from what anyone seems to know.

So there's a chance of Daft Punk then? SOLD!

I reckon Roses and Stones are very probable. The third I'm not sure about, I could imagine it being Gaga but not so sure, I think it would seem very similar to 2011. So for third I'm going to say Pearl Jam, which I guess is quite an outsider.

Pearl Jam would be amazing! Highly doubt it but as they would be classed as one of the heavier headliners that Eavis is not fond of but seemed to change his mind more recently about. I'm sure he said a few months back that it could be likely that not next year but the year after could have a heavier headliner.

Don't get excited by the facebook led zeppelin countdown. Most rumours flying around seem to be that its a DVD release of their o2 performance

Anyone thinking that on Thursday it pops up and says ... "Is headlining Glastonbury" or even "is touring in 2013" is living in cloud cuckoo land

Over on the Backstreets forum there are a couple of people who are fairly certain that Bruce Springsteen is going to return in 2013.

Of course, I was fairly certain I was going to win the lottery last week and didn't.

Kev

if he is, I guess that's for the people who somehow missed how bland and boring he was last time. :P

    • Latest from the sun at least is that harry is still headlining but Olivia has turned down a spot next year to work on new music and hope for 2028.   So they can't have Fender, Fontaines, Harry, Olivia and Madonna. 
    • I mean I don't think EC and FFDP are borderline sub, they wouldn't be any lower now.   2025 is about as strong as Bloodstock gets yet this year only one headline would sub and the others would play 3rd down or lower.    Machine Head wouldn't sub at Download regardless of rarity, they don't sell enough tickets and I'm not sure Gojira would sub either. Their last UK tour was a mix of smaller arenas and academy dates. Ally Pally being the only London date, not even Wembley Arena. 
    • live music / main stage will generally end around 11pm but theres dj’s and late goings on right till 4am if you are so inclined.   Drinks are about £7.50 a pint probably and yes theres lots of mixed drinks / spirits / cocktails available to buy   wonderful festival, back for my third year in a row and 4th overall
    • If anyone sees Lakefest this weekend on any sites please post here, I’ve got alerts set. Been on TFG in recent years and not sold out yet.
