2013 Headliners

[Wooderson]

Bruce Forsythe playing Hop Farm.

I hear his punt on Rattamahatta is quite the crowd pleaser.

[grandadcollective]

I still think we'll get Stone Rose. I'd rather that than the Rolling Stones.

[Matt87]

no one can get right what hasn't been booked.

In the words of someone who knows only last week "... they've not booked anyone".

Those words are a bit of an over-statement (cos at least one headliner is booked), but things haven't progressed as much as some people are thinking.

[JBarbour]

won't happen - Stevie Nicks is on tour with Fleetwood Mac.

[JBarbour]

Is the one headliner that has been booked the Arctic Monkeys?

[Brave Sir Robin]

You do realise the sound city players are just a name given to a group of musicians that made album/s on that particular board in the studio (that appear in the documentary) brought together bu Grohl. Just because Nicks is touring doesnt mean they wont do anything. They are supposedly announcing dates for a tour. Its not forced to be the same musicians on each date of tour

Saying all that unlikely for glasto yes

[Mud Dweller]

Speaking of Feetwood Mac, detaisl of their UK tour price have just been announced, prices for Manchester start at £137.50 (£125.00 Ticket + £12.50 Fees). Not quite in the Rolling Stones ballpark but still steep

That will be why they turned glasto down! Money talks

[Mud Dweller]

Im on Ticketmaster now for manchester and they've only got the above mentioned ones listed?

I can't link cause I'm on my phone, but have a look at the digital spy Fleetwood mac tour story.

[JBarbour]

Agreed. And Fleetwood Mac aren't playing anywhere on the Friday night so Stevie can fly over for that! Ha ha. Or, of course, Grohl can just phone up another of his celeb mates and get them on board to replace her. Maybe Adele could try out the headline slot as a guest, The Edge style?!

I mentioned them in jest, but the more I think about what is basically the Foo Fighters playing with numerous star guests, both their own material and other people's, the more I think it would be amazing...

[Al2006]

Prices for Birmingham are here

but on ticketmaster only says £137.50! so looks like ticketmaster hasn't updated yet.

So prices are "£50 / £65 / £80 / £125 "

No wonder he can't find a third band if thats his old school method of approaching potential headliners haha

[Mud Dweller]

Ah right, that is a little better, the Mrs has been pestering me for weeks now that she wants to go so think ill settle for the £80 ones.

[sisco]

I'm sure I haven't rad about Watch the throne in days!! Where the hell is Mattgimmeshelter (or whatever his name was)

[tylerdurden]

"The farmer" uses the old school approach of contacting bands it seems.

Reminds me of this.

[Bisque]

Adele suffers from stage fright so cant see her ever doing the pyramid to be honest.

[Mud Dweller]

Dizzies just announced Benicassim........please god no

[JoeyT]

biffy announced as R&L headliner.

does this decrease their chances of being at glasto? i swear i saw a tweet from them the other day to say they'd been booked for two massive festivals.

i thought they smashed the last festival.

[JoeyT]

Decreases it alot.

Surely the big two are Reading and Leeds or would that be counted as one

[Andeeroo]

UK festival exclusive according to the R&L website.

Unlucky fellas.
