2013 Headliners

[mrtourette]

Oh I know .... but my understanding of Jagger is that he's not too impressed by 'jam later' ideas, he always wants his jam upfront.

[brabs]

I still think the Stone Roses will play next year. I also think Arcade Fire will play next year as well as Fleetwood Mac. If they were the headliners I would be happy.

[The Nal]

Oooo Blue? Great shout - didn't realise they were back together!

One Love.

[Porcelina]

Yeah with the 50th anniversary you'd expect that next year will be the Stones' last major tour. Whether they want to tick the Glasto box or not will probably dictate if they play or not. I'm sure they wouldn't be announced until all the stadium dates sold out, anyway.

In a way I'd like them to play for Glasto's sake, but I'd also rather see a newer band who deserve the exposure that goes with a Glasto headline slot take it instead. Arcade Fire simply have to headline 2013.

I'm going for - A classic headliner (maybe Tom Petty? Dylan?) for Friday - Arcade Fire for Saturday and then some bullshit contemporary pop act on Sunday.

[A13]

Hahaha!!

I actually meant "Blur". Just cant get Blue out of my mind. They're so good.

Actually, apart from a couple of Blur tunes, I don't really care about either band.

[jimmyt]

Hey it could also mean he has someone booked who will be headlining IF the Stones don't and subbing IF they do?? Didn't that situation happen last year with Beyonce?

[sisco]

Perhaps it means the Stones won't headline!!! Playing just before Jessie J and Olly Murs or some other novelty pop rubbish that seems to be appearing all the time these days!

Following on from being too soon for 'Blue', do we think too soon for Bruce again? Still greatest headliner I have seen at Glasto, still re watch that performance to get me through the gym! I know not all enjoyed though....

The Stones have also played freebie shows before now. I'm not sure how the funding worked for SARSstock and/or Copacabana Beach and I'm sure they didn't come away empty handed, but they're not always (entirely) focussed on the paycheque. Otherwise they wouldn't still play their (admittedly occasional) club shows.

[eFestivals]

Otherwise they wouldn't still play their (admittedly occasional) club shows.

don't they do that for warm-up purposes, wanting to run the show past a live but small audience before doing it to the masses?

[sisco]

Can't see past it being 3 from:

Radiohead

The Rolling Stones

Arcade Fire

Lady Gaga

[dirty_dog]

Arcade Fire are defiantly playing!!! if I keep saying it will happen.

They where in talks to sub-headline last time and then all of a sudden they had a couple of grammys and Brit awards in their back pockets and so I reckon ME said scrap that idea and you can headline in 2013 and a deal was done.

A few weeks later at Hyde park I think they said see you in 2 years, so they are deffo playing!!!

[Justiceforcedave]

My guess is that AF, Radiohead and Lady GaGa are booked to play, If they get The Stones then AF take a subbing slot.

[zahidf]

With the Arctic Monkeys/The Strokes and the Killers heading the other stage maybe?

[Justiceforcedave]

Strokes, maybe. The other two are way too big for the other stage

[gazza_20]

AF in the subbing slot? With the Arctic Monkeys/The Strokes and the Killers heading the other stage maybe?
